The Great Misdirection [1]

['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.']

So much going on these days that two of the most dangerous long-term parts of the Trump/Musk agenda are not getting the attention they deserve as the focus on tariffs and job cuts capture the news cycles.

XAI will soon be the most invasive AI in the world. Over the next few months it will be "training" on the Social Security data base that includes the personal information, job history and payroll records of every American or foreign citizen and company that has ever reported income. Combined with the IRS data that has already been processed by Grok AI, AIX will incorporate detailed information on nearly everyone in the country. All of this "training" is being funded by the US taxpayer as part of the DOGE operation. Given Musk's propensity to interfere in US politics such as the current Wisconsin supreme court race, this will not end well. This data will no doubt be used to target the millions or billions of dollars that Musk will spend to keep control of Congress in 2026.

In a parallel operation, the launch of $Trump, the change in banking requirements around crypto, the suggestion of using US gold reserves to purchase crypto for a crypto reserve, and the creation of a sovereign wealth fund controlled by the administration will alter the financial structure of the country. One idea that has been floated is to funnel tariff revenues into the fund.

Action Items

Contact your representatives and demand that any modification of the Social Security databases cease until a formal contract is awarded per the usual federal procurement processes. DOGE has no formal authority to make this type of drastic and possibly disastrous changes. AIX has no credible experience to justify a sole source contract to upgrade the systems.

Also ask your representative if they support turning over the power of the purse to the executive branch by allowing a sovereign wealth fund that has limited or no oversight.

As mentioned at the outset, the “flood the zone” strategy is in full force. Yet letting either or both of these initiatives move forward will alter the future of the country.
