Technocracy is all about infrastructure. Infrastructure connects things: people, neighborhoods, smart cities and networks of smart cities. It includes roads, rail, air, fiber optic, data communications, etc.
Dr. Parag Khanna, scholar and Technocrat, authored a book in 2016 called Connectography which promotes the concept of connecting everything together… for the sake of implementing Technocracy, or a resource-based economic system run by scientists, engineers and technicians.
Thus, when President Trump says that we need to rebuild America’s infrastructure, we must pay careful attention to what exactly this will look like. Will our nation be ‘rebuilt’ for our sake or for the benefit of Technocrats and Technocracy? That answer is now becoming clear.
The American Planning Association (APA) was created in 1978 by the merger of the American Society of Planning Officials and the American Institute of Planners. It is the largest and most influential planning association in America and has 35,000 members from 100 countries. It has since become a major driving force of UN policy for Agenda 21, 2030 Agenda, and New Urban Agenda.
Worse, the APA is advising the Department of Transportation on how to re-work the nation’s infrastructure. This is dangerous for those who anticipated a reduction of UN influence over American life!
The APA openly and forcefully supports:
Regional Planning – Unconstitutional Councils of Governments are already networked across America and are used by the government to dole out funds to local communities who comply with their arbitrarily imposed conditionalities.
Public-Private Partnerships – Similar to Fascism, PPP yokes business with government and subverts the Constitutional process of public representation in government.
Sustainability and Sustainable Development – This is the ‘greening’ of America, where Agenda 21, 2030 Agenda and New Urban Agenda is implanted into every decision.
Needless to say, this a huge Trojan horse and a betrayal of the American mandate to get the UN out of American affairs. The APA will influence the spending of over $200 billion in the next four years, which will reinforce and set in concrete many more UN programs.
Donald Trump spent his entire campaign railing against the establishment and promising to “drain the swamp.” But now that he has begun announcing his cabinet choices, many liberty-loving people are getting increasingly uncomfortable with the Wall-Street-studded, war-loving picks. Instead of draining the swamp, it seems like he may be repopulating the swamp with bigger predators than before.
In the following article, Aaron Dykes provides some startling information about the new cabinet members, including their net worth.
I really hope the President-Elect proves me wrong, but we have a responsibility to speak the truth, regardless of how unpleasant it is. The question has to be asked…did Donald Trump just run the biggest confidence game in history by telling us all what we wanted to hear?

Hedge Funds “Gleeful” That Trump “Conned His Supporters” and Appointed Wall Street to His Cabinet
It seems apparent now that Trump supporters – believing they were electing an outsider and populist reformer – got conned.
President-elect Trump may or may not go on to keep some of this campaign promises; then again, he may not. What he has done is invite the elite of the elite into his cabinet, and it is absolutely not a good sign for things to come under a Donald J. Trump presidency.
For better or worse, Trump can’t effectively be held accountable for four more years. Until then, he has something like a blank check – and that should worry everyone because he has already proven to be very duplicitous and he hasn’t even officially been sworn in yet.
People ignored the warning signs – like having War on Terror-monger Rudy Giuliani as one of his closest allies – because voters, fed up with the status quo, tend to project their own values, hopes, and dreams upon the often vague or empty promises made by candidates.
That isn’t specific to Trump, but ubiquitous to most all politicians, but this guy is different, I promise.
Hedge fund manager Whitney Tilson was feeling happy Wednesday morning.
After Donald Trump ridiculed Wall Street on the campaign trail, the President-elect tapped former Goldman Sachs Group Inc. executive Steven Mnuchin to be his Treasury secretary and billionaire investor Wilbur Ross to lead the Commerce Department. Trump even met with Goldman Sachs President Gary Cohn inside Trump Tower.
It would suit Tilson just fine if voters who backed Trump because he promised to rein in Wall Street are furious now that he’s surrounding himself with bankers and billionaires.
“I can take glee in that — I think Donald Trump conned them,” said Tilson, who runs Kase Capital Management. “I worried that he was going to do crazy things that would blow the system up. So the fact that he’s appointing people from within the system is a good thing.”
It is indeed time for Trump supporters to suck it up and face the facts – they have been conned. Period.
Stop trying to rationalize it. Get ready to fight a new front in the war against elite domination. It is not over because Hillary (who was obviously a very dangerous and loathsome choice) lost.
While Trump has not finalized most of his picks, and all will still have to face confirmation, the list is pretty overwhelmingly packed with Wall Street and big bank insiders, establishment creatures, and neocon war hawks, etc.
Trump’s Admin to be will be run by the big banks – here’s just a few of his many cabinet, appointee, and advisor picks:
* Steven Bannon, Chief Political Strategist (net worth $10 million) – Breitbart publisher, ex-Goldman Sachs exec, and film producer
* Elaine Chao, Transportation Secretary (net worth $22-25 million) – Wife of Sen. Mitch McConnell, Bank of America executive; Labor Secretary under Geroge W. Bush; member of CFR; father was a shipping magnate
* Steven Mnuchin, Treasury Secretary (net worth $40 million) – Second generation Goldman Sachs partner/executive; previously worked for Soros group; at Yale, he allegedly ‘passed’ on Skull and Bones membership after being tapped
* Wilbur Ross, Secretary of Commerce (net worth $2.9 billion) – Billionaire investor; senior managing director at Rothschild, Inc.; Yale, Harvard Business alumni. and board of advisors of Yale School of Management; and, to top it all off as Kurt Nimmo recently reported,
Ross “also worked as New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani’s privatization advisor and was a member of the Wall Street secret society Kappa Beta Phi made up of high-ranking financial executives. Robert Rubin, Jon Corzine, and John C. Whitehead, the former head of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, Rockefeller confidant, and Goldman Sachs chairman are also members. Ross is the “Grand Swipe” or leader of the group.”
* Betsy DeVos, Secretary of Education (net worth “billionaire”; husband Dick DeVos has Amway fortune) – Windquest Group energy/renewables; Father built up auto parts fortune; Brother is Eric Prince, founder of Blackwater/Xe/Academi; Prince is, in turn, featured on Breitbart frequently
* Gen. David Petraeus, possible Secretary of State (net worth $2 million) – After serving as commander of CENTCOM and other miiltary positions, he was director of the CIA, before being forced to step down after pleading guilty to the misuse of classified information, which he reportedly shared with his mistress and biographer (*he would make a hypocritical Secretary of State choice given the scandal surrounding Sec. Clinton’s misuse of classified info); Petraeus went to head KKR Global (Kohlberg, Kravis and Roberts) and became a frequent Bilderberg attendee; member of CFR
• Mitt Romney, possible Secretary of State (net worth: $250 million) – Former Massachusetts Governor; former GOP nominee for president; former Vice President and senior partner at Bain Capitol, private equity/venture capital fund; father was former governor of Michigan; Romney is already well known as an establishment lackey, so there is no need to go on…
* Peter Thiel, potential position unknown, possibly informal (net worth $2.7 billion) – Co-founder of Facebook, PayPal, Palantir Technologies (NSA’s data mining partner), and many other firms; Silicon Valley tycoon known for initiating the so-called “PayPal Mafia”; Bilderberg steering committee member who has brought many technology leaders to the power group’s table
Notably, Peter Thiel and Donald Trump have been working closely together on a plan to “open libel laws” to, apparently, facilitate lawsuits and new forms of legal action against defamation and certain types of reporting – a la Thiel’s controversial role in funding lawsuits against Gawker, which caused its bankruptcy.
There are many other potential appointees and advisors worth paying attention to, but it is labor intensive, many have yet to be selected, and this is already enough to make the point anyway.
. . . . . . . . . . .
Nearly eight years ago, I had the honor and distinction of being an associate editor and second hand in general to the production of “The Obama Deception” – a film which rightly blasted the myth of Barack Obama’s divine anti-establishment, hope-and-change rope-a-dope routine.
We now know that play, and we should not let ourselves get fooled again.
In 2008, Despite campaigning as a fresh face who would end wars, corruption and the ways of Washington politics, President Obama quickly appointed Wall Street insiders, CFR and Trilateral Commission members, Bilderberg attendees, and some of the very neocons who had defined the Bush Administration that so many had come to reject and loathe.
Obama remains cool and popular on the surface and in press conferences, but behind the scenes he helped the big banks secure their bailout after the collapse. He gave cover for what became the greatest looting ever of the American people. Millennials, in particular, were oblivious to the deception, despite our effort to warn them.
Today, in 2016, Donald Trump is already showing himself to be the new face of that same deception; only this time, lots of well meaning liberty activists, truthers, libertarians, constitutionalists, populists and paleo-conservatives were the victims.
Helping Trump gain office on the idea that he would destroy NAFTA, stop the TPP, curb illegal immigration and bring good jobs back to America, these people were betrayed within days and weeks of Trump’s election victory as his elitist appointments became clear.
If you give cover to Trump to appoint swamp creatures to his cabinet, you have no right to criticize Obama for having done the same. Let’s grow up and start rallying around ideas, not cheerleading political figures.
[…]
What allowed Obama to do all the bad things he did, was the fact that his supporters made endless excuses for him. Don’t make excuses for Trump. If you do, your life will get a lot worse and this country will decay far more into an authoritarian oligarchy than it already has. It is up to you to make sure he doesn’t become the Wall Street puppet I always feared he would be.
In hindsight, Trump made his fortune, and stayed out of trouble, by operating in the heart of Manhattan, just a short distance from Wall Street, the World Trade Center, Rockefeller Center, the Council on Foreign Relations and other exclusive white glove, bow tie clubs and business centers… So it isn’t exactly a stretch of the imagination that he would pack his cabinet full of these same creatures.
There is no shame in having supported one candidate to oppose another, or to be misled by someone you thought would make a difference. But the question is, will those who supported Trump the most admit that he has indeed “conned” and “betrayed” the base that got him elected – or will they keep on making excuses for him for the next four years, while Washington and Wall Street accelerate their operations?
Mark Twain, himself a member of the elitist Bohemian Grove back in his day, made two succinct and relevant observations about our political system which seem more fitting now than ever:
“If voting made any difference they wouldn’t let us do it.” – Mark Twain
and
“It’s easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled.” ― Mark Twain
Draining or sustaining the swamp? The Trump cabinet choices have now mostly been selected, as only 6 weeks remain until the inauguration of Donald Trump on January 20, 2017. Trump has met all sorts of people, including top NWO (New World Order) insiders like war criminal Henry Kissinger, ex-CIA director and Bilderberger David Petraeus, and CFR (Council on Foreign Relations) chief Richard Haas. Trump seems to have considerable reverence and admiration for these figures, e.g. he said he has “tremendous respect” for Kissinger and “likes and respects [Haass] a lot”. Meanwhile, some of the old Republican neocons (neoconservatives) that were present during the Bush Jr. years have been buzzing around Trump like flies around you know what, including Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich and Rudy Giuliani. Trump has also been attracting Goldman Sachs men like Anthony Scaramucci and Gary Cohn, in addition to the “Goldmen” below who are among the Trump cabinet picks. At this point many are wondering whether Trump is making America great again or making the swamp great again. Is he draining or sustaining the swamp?
Wilbur Ross
Trump Cabinet Picks #1: Wilbur Ross for Secretary of Commerce
Ross is the head of Secret Society Kappa Beta Phi, which was infiltrated by journalist Kevin Roose in January 2012 when they had they meeting and dinner in Manhattan, New York. He is estimated by Forbes to be worth $1.9 billion. He has worked for the Rothschilds (the preeminent powerbroking family of the New World Order) for 25 years! Not much more probably needs to be said. Here is an article describing what Roose saw inside the Kapaa Beta Phi meeting:
“The first outside to infiltrate Kappa Beta Phi in its eight decade life-span, Roose calls the fraternity so exclusive it is akin to a one-percenters club … Staying long enough to record skits and speeches given by new inductees and to take a few pictures, Roose was exposed when he tried to video a parody version of ‘I Believe’, the big number from musical, The Book of Mormon – for which the neophytes had dressed as missionaries. Indeed, the lyrics were changed to include the line, ‘I believe that God has a plan for all of us. I believe my plan involves a seven-figure bonus.’”
Steven Mnuchin
Trump Cabinet Picks #2: Steven Mnuchin for Secretary of the Treasury
Mnuchin is a former Goldman Sachs man. He is a Goldman trader turned hedge fund manager and Hollywood financier. During his 17 years at Goldman Sachs, he accrued a net worth estimated about $40 million. He actually become a Goldman Sachs partner. In 2004 he started Dune Capital with money from arch-manipulator George Soros. In 2009, in partnership with Soros, John Paulson and others, Mnuchin bought the failed housing lender IndyMac for $1.6 billion. It was renamed OneWest.
OneWest was involved in a plethora of lawsuits surrounding its highly dubious foreclosure rate. Apparently, according to Politico, one case involved Mnuchin foreclosing on a 90-year-old Florida woman over a $0.27 payment mistake. Protestors flocked to the lawn of his $26 million mansion in Bel Air in 2011 due to all the predatory foreclosures. If approved by Congress, as Secretary of the Treasury, Mnuchin would become 5th in line for the presidency.
Mnuchin has indicated he wants more deregulation of Big Banking, such as undoing parts of the Dodd-Frank Act which come into being after the 2008 economic disaster. Just as Bill Clinton’s repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act led to the 2008 crash, will the repeal of the Dodd-Frank Act lead to a future crash?
Elaine Chao
Trump Cabinet Picks #3: Elaine Chao for Secretary of Transportation
Trump wants Elaine Chao as his transportation secretary. Chao was the Secretary of Labor under President George W. Bush from 2001 to 2009. She is also the wife of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, an entrenched American politician (some may even say a swamp-dweller). If her appointment is successfully confirmed by the Senate, Chao would control the Transportation Department which oversees administrations under it such as the United States Maritime Administration. AlterNet reports on the conflict of interest in this selection:
“The appointment of Chao to this position is striking for at least one major reason: her family owns a major international shipping company. Chao’s father, James Chao, is the chairman of the Foremost Group, which he founded in 1964. Elaine Chao’s sister Angela is currently the deputy chairman of the company … Foremost purchases vessels and coordinates the shipment of commodities throughout the globe. In 2014, the Nation’s Lee Fang reported that 90 pounds of cocaine was seized by the Colombian Coast Guard from a vessel owned by Foremost … A 2014 report from the Louisville Courant revealed that Chao registers his ships in Liberia to avoid paying taxes in the United States.”
Betsy DeVos
Trump Cabinet Picks #4: Betsy DeVos for Secretary of Education
Betsy DeVos is another extremely wealthy choice among the Trump cabinet picks. According to Forbes, her family has a net worth of $5.1 billion! She is the daughter-in-law of Richard DeVos, the co-founder of Amway, and the sister of Erik Prince! You may recall that Prince founded the infamous and notorious company of mercenaries (paid killers) used in Middle Eastern wars. First it was called Blackwater, then Xe, then Academi, as it kept changing its name to avoid scrutiny.
Strangely enough, DeVos is a big proponent of private charter schools, and has never worked in public education. RT quotes the NEA (National Education Association) president:
“DeVos’ “efforts over the years have done more to undermine public education than support students,” NEA President Lily Eskelsen Garcia said in a statement. “She has consistently pushed a corporate agenda to privatize, de-professionalize and impose cookie-cutter solutions to public education. By nominating Betsy DeVos, the Trump administration has demonstrated just how out of touch it is with what works best for students, parents, educators and communities.””
Trump cabinet pick Scott Pruitt for EPA Administrator.
Trump Cabinet Picks #5: Scott Pruitt for EPA Administrator
NWO Agenda Will Move Forward with Trump – Just in a Different Way
If you look around you can find many conspiracy theories saying that Trump is going to be assassinated. For me, these are just wild speculations – and maybe even good clickbait for those deliberately trying to attract traffic with sensationalistic headlines. Or maybe it’s the alt right (alternative right) trying to save face after unabashedly promoting Trump like there was no tomorrow. I (not so boldly) predict that Trump won’t be assassinated before he takes office, and I doubt he will be even once he’s in office. Trump is not the outsider he likes to portray himself to be, as I highlighted in my March 2016 article Outsider or Insider Trump? Donald Trump’s NWO Connections.
The real rulers of the planet are quite content with Donald Trump as US President. Sure, some aspects of the NWO agenda won’t be pushed forward as much, but others will be. The Clinton NWO agenda would have involved things like war with Russia, climate change carbon tax, gun control and corporate treaties like the TTP, TTIP and TISA. The Trump NWO agenda involves things like war with Iran, escalated tension with China (Trump already criticized them through Twitter) and trade wars. Yes, Trump may roll back parts of Obamacare and bust the manmade climate change hoax, but he will advance the Zionist cause more than Obama. The NWO controllers are calculated and patient; they will get what they want from Trump before the next person comes in push forward other aspects of the agenda. One bird, one flight plan, 2 wings. The West may get war wth Iran and China instead of war with Russia.
Trump has already assembled the richest presidential cabinet in US history, stuffed with multi-millionaires and billionaires. Is this really a victory worth promoting and celebrating?
Part 2 will examine Trump’s cabinet picks #6 – #10.
