A committed supporter of the World Economic Forum agenda, Dean Phillips recently launched the Stakeholder Capitalism Caucus in Congress, before attending Davos.
No arguments here about Phillips, he's got garbage views on most important issues except one: that Joe Biden shouldn't be the president next year. Also, if an oligarch was saying something that sounded good to regular people while plotting something totally counter to it in the background, it wouldn't be the first time. However: don't you think it's also a possibility that Ackman is actually thinking something like "There is an approximately 0% chance that Phillips actually gets nominated, but a much higher chance that he does damage to Biden if he stays alive long enough to get some attention, and bleeds his support by attacking him from the left"?
American politics (both parties) are beyond repair! It is so entrenched in corruption, greed and power; is bought and paid for by Big corporations, and organizations!
Thanks for enlightening us about Dean Phillips. Ackman appears to be a Zionist and got rid of Gay for that reason whatever he might have pretended to care about DEI.
Who cares? What a loser mentality...The win is he helped get rid of Gay. Doesn't matter his motivation. He got wheels rolling, while you're pounding your fingers into a keyboard.
Goodness - how rude! I didn’t say I wasn’t happy that Gay is no longer Harvard President - merely pointed out that Ackman’s reasons for going after her were a pretext - which aligns with what Jordan is saying in this article - i.e. that Ackman is backing a DEI supporting Democrat candidate for President.
Coup of this country by foundations, NGO's and private/public so called partnerships. The world to be ruled by these stakeholders who see borders as inconvenient to their visions and to their profits.
And lo, the sound of the "we puts our faith in that Free Speech Elon feller" crowd discovering the newest champeen is also just, you know, a businessman.
Hedge funds are maybe the most evil form of taking one's money and running sweet little innocent companies into the ground ever.
Every rich person has his pet justice project. But one little intersection doesn't make a friend.
Interesting that phillips is Jewish. Whether you like it or not, the score is a Jewish elite manoeuvering to serve its ethnic group interests. It will support DEI when it serves those interests, and oppose it when it impinges upon them.
In so many words, prominent Jewish billionaires such as Ackman suddenly found their voice against "DEI" only when Israel became the hinge issue. Ackman and his money won out; Gay's interim replacement is Garber, who is Jewish. Garber will not waver on Ackman's hinge issue.
Jordan Schactel, who is Jewish, expresses surprise here that Ackman is not in fact some ideological libertarian endorsing colorblind meritocracy in the name of economic efficiency. While I was not familiar with Dean Phillips the politician, I was not surprised that my cursory search revealed that he too was Jewish.
I believe that like Ackman and Garber, the primary motivating issue for Phillips is not in fact DEI as it says on his campaign website, but rather Israel. This raises the question of Schactel's motivations in framing his reporting. One might say that his observations have been rather, well, "colorblind."
Waitaminnit...didn't Ackman just say he couldn't be associated with the Democrat Party anymore? That's what he said, right??
So... now he's flushing a million dollars down the drain backing a fringe candidate who's just as loony as any other Democrat. Loonier, even.
But, I guess when you run a hedge fund located in NY and as long as the Dems promise to keep the carried interest loophole in place....you're kind of stuck with the Democrats, aren't you Bill?
Oh no! Sorry to hear about the Dean Phillips choice.
I want to set aside my biases regarding Israel/
Gaza and still look at the many strengths of RFK Jr. as a presidential candidate. Some of these
Israel policies and biases are baked in so not worth arm wrestling over. Throwing out Kennedy on that issue is premature.
I do see much altruism in RFK Jr. He has the knowledge and skills to repurpose our governmental agencies. As an environmental lawyer, he understands the corruption and knows what needs to be done. I do believe he will work with people like Dane Wigington, and many others to address geoengineering, and the mercury pollution from corporations and help restore our water supply, etc.
I have no hope in any of the other candidates who are creating political theatre, taking pot shots at each other in the media, and are simplistic war-mongering stooges. Jill Stein would be an exception, but she has little support.
RFK Jr. who just said his father and brother had to wiretap MLK Jr. because the politics of the time made them do it? He's just another dilettante princeling and we had more than our surfeit o' those.
Not all men are all things. Celebrate him for his fight against evil in one regard. Ignore his transgressions on all other matters. Demanding purity tests is why conservatives, Republicans, libertarians, and even Ancaps always seem to lose.
While demanding adherence to principles might feel good....
Interesting take. I’m of the opinion that winning takes an adherence to principles. Though trump has shown that sometimes someone with no principles can win also. As a voter I look for an adherence to and history of principles. It seems to me republicans lose because they make a lot of stupid decisions, electing Ronna, etc.
Ackman voiced no objection to any of the rampant discrimination coming out of DEI until it crossed a line for HIM. In other words, selfish motivations. He got his feelings hurt and reacted. No principles to be seen.
Look at Ackman early Covid: pushing fear while buying stocks. A giant POS. Not a righteous bone in his demonic body.
tell me how you really feel. LOL.
Cute reply but likely accurate
Thx

Why would any reasonable person not approve of Zionism?
Because it's a freak show.
What a foolish response.
To a ridiculous question.
Of course I was referring to reasonable people.

Gay is still there .. making same $$$ ..

Zios love DEI.
Coup of this country by foundations, NGO's and private/public so called partnerships. The world to be ruled by these stakeholders who see borders as inconvenient to their visions and to their profits.
Fascists all the way down?
Thanks. Helps put the puzzle pieces in place. As well as Ackman, his riches, and Satan.
And lo, the sound of the "we puts our faith in that Free Speech Elon feller" crowd discovering the newest champeen is also just, you know, a businessman.

Operation chaos. Got and vote for Phillips in a democratic primary. Make the DNC wet it’s pants.

Bill Ackman is a leading US anti-Semite.
He rabidly hates Palestinians -- who are Semites by both language and ancestry.
In so many words, prominent Jewish billionaires such as Ackman suddenly found their voice against "DEI" only when Israel became the hinge issue. Ackman and his money won out; Gay's interim replacement is Garber, who is Jewish. Garber will not waver on Ackman's hinge issue.

Double Bingo.

It's time to win.
