(Zero Hedge)—BlackRock chief executive Larry Fink’s efforts to push ‘wokesim’ or environmental, social, and governance policies across corporate America have been in reverse in recent years amid the backlash from Republican lawmakers on Capitol Hill and 19 state attorneys general in conservative states, including Arizona and Texas, who have been fed up with ESG-related policies hurting the economy.
Supposedly, the backlash by anti-woke activists has forced BlackRock to triple Fink’s home security spending. Financial Times says the CEO has become “a target for anti-woke activists and conspiracy theorists.”

According to FT’s numbers, the $10.5 trillion money manager spent $563,513 to “upgrade the home security systems” at Fink’s residences during 2023, on top of $216,837 for bodyguards.
The ESG movement has been highly politicized. Vivek Ramaswamy, one of the Republican party’s presidential candidates before Donald Trump was nominated, called Fink “the king of the woke industrial complex [and] the ESG movement.”
In December, Fink said his firm was unfairly targeted by candidates in the fourth Republican presidential debate, calling it a “sad commentary on the state of American politics.”
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has called BlackRock the “economic power” to instill a “left-wing agenda.”

Besides conservative lawmakers revolting against the world’s largest woke money manager at the state level and on Capitol Hill, UBS bankers on Wall Street are becoming increasingly frustrated with unrealistic climate goals.

It should be no surprise to our readers: we have been pointing out the demise of ESG for more than a year now. Earlier in March, we wrote how Exxon’s CEO had all but declared victory over the “woke” ESG lobby.
We noted that CEOs were ditching ESG lingo on conference calls in February. For some context, peak ESG and related synonyms, such as “climate change” and “clean energy” and green energy” and net zero,” among other terms, peaked at 28,000 mentions in the first quarter of 2022. Ever since, the number of mentions has plunged.
Fink’s beefing up security is a sign that the political ideology pushed by the asset manager does not align with actual investors and most Americans.

As he should be. Larry Fink is avowed globalist who hates America and right along with Klaus Schwab one of the evilest men to infest these United States and our world. Fink, Schwab, Schumer, Nadler, Schiff, and to many others to mention are the main reason anti-semitism is sweeping the world. These evil Jews are dragging the entire Jewish people down a dark road. Jews in the U.S. and abroad need to speak up and out, putting distance between themselves and these degenerates. Jews like Mark Levin and Glenn Greenwald are not enough to offset the hateful anti-American activities of the rest. Now is the time, speak up, speak out defend America.
They all SHOULD be. And none of them should be surprised that we hate them as much as they hate us… or more.
