Before the summit, I wrote, “The institutional centerpiece of this summit is the proposed Board of Trade and Board of Investment, two bilateral bodies that would govern commerce and capital flows between the United States and China outside the existing WTO framework. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer designed them.”
The State Department calls it Pax Silica: a U.S.-led AI and supply-chain framework built around secure technology supply chains, economic security, artificial intelligence, critical minerals, semiconductors, energy, manufacturing, infrastructure, and “trustworthy systems.” The declaration signed in Washington on December 12, 2025 described the objective as building secure, prosperous, and innovative global technology supply chains.
In September 2023, I wrote about the simulacrum — Jean Baudrillard's concept of a reality so thoroughly replaced by its representation that the original disappears entirely. I said that billions of people risked being captured by it. I said that while everyone was staring at shiny new simulacra forming before their eyes, reality was escaping out the back door.
There is no race with China. China is not our arch-enemy. Forget multipolarity. The CCP isn't Communist. It is a Technocracy, and birds of a feather flock together. Trump and the arch-Technocrats who are in China are not there to "give America away" but rather to fold China into the global Technocracy. They have boxed China in. Any other narrative will fall to the ground when you open your eyes to Technocracy. A white paper from this author will follow soon.
In all fairness, this article doesn't mention Technocracy a single time, but it certainly nails billionaire Technocrats as Transhumans who are using their billions to conquer death. This isn't new. Ancient explorers sought out the "Fountain of Youth" in the four corners of the globe. They all died in their quest. Today's counterparts will eventually join them in the grave, sans their riches and fame.
Japan has been headed into a demographic winter for decades and now the aging population has run out of younger nurses and aids to care for the elderly. Technocrats to the rescue. By 2030-2035, most elder tasks will be performed by robots including routine medical tasks, companionship, exercise, cooking, laundry and cleaning.
Imagine yourself owning a house. It’s yours. You have the deed. You can live in it, paint the walls, rent it out, sell it to anyone you choose, or give it away. Nobody can change the terms of your ownership after you buy it. The deed is recorded at the county courthouse, and no company or platform operator can alter it without your consent and a judge’s order. That is ownership.
From $225 million in fiscal year 2026 to $54.6 BILLION in fiscal 2027: a 24,300 percent increase! The "agentic AI infrastructure that enables battle management and kill chain execution at machine speed" is being developed at scale with drone systems from planes, to ships, to land vehicles. Hegseth's AI push is part of a broader "maximum lethality" doctrine that frames the Pentagon's sole mission as killing enemies.
The vote did not come quietly. Hundreds of residents packed commission meetings and courthouse hallways. They carried signs. They demanded answers. And when the vote came down, many of them left feeling that the process had been designed from the beginning to sidestep them entirely.
Technocracy News & Trends has provided article after article, explaining tokenization. My new book, The New Economics of Technocracy: You Will Own Nothing, deals with it extensively. You must get your head around tokenization and understand that it will spell the end of private property, flipping us into an asset-based economic system just like Technocrats in the 1930s spelled out. Time is running out to send these grifters packing!
