This week’s events exposed the dual use of force—military strength abroad and a militarized bureaucracy at home. U.S. warships approached Venezuela under the guise of anti-drug enforcement, the National Guard expanded operations in 19 states claiming to protect citizens, and Congress moved to incorporate AI into the IRS for tax enforcement. Each story was presented as defense—against traffickers, criminals, or fraud—masking a deeper agenda: extending centralized power through militarization and algorithmic control.
The core pattern is clear. Whether through naval exercises, ground troops, or invisible encoded systems in tax infrastructure, the U.S. government pursues the same goal: total spectrum dominance. And although Americans may support or oppose depending on which administration issues the orders, the machinery of control keeps moving forward, becoming increasingly aligned with the global technocratic plan of Agenda 2030.

The Biden and Obama administrations often used “humanitarian missions” to justify interventions abroad. Under Trump, the rhetoric shifted toward “combating drugs” and “defending security.” But the tactics remain the same: American warships moving into contested waters to show geopolitical strength. The Caribbean—long considered the U.S.’s “backyard”—once again becomes a stage for intimidation, with Venezuela positioned as the main villain.
Although headlines portray the deployment as a response to drug trafficking, the level of force indicates otherwise. Destroyers, an amphibious assault ship, and a nuclear submarine are not tools for fighting cartels; they are strategic assets intended to send a message not only to Caracas but also to Beijing and Moscow, both of which have deep ties with Venezuela. The story of “anti-drug operations” acts as a cover for projecting power.
History offers a clear parallel. In the 1980s, “anti-communism” justified intervention in Latin America. Today, the drug war serves the same purpose. The public, shaped by decades of fear campaigns, accepts U.S. military presence abroad as necessary rather than imperial overreach. Once again, the empire masks its actions in protective language while following the same hegemonic pattern.
The timing is also significant. Venezuela’s oil and rare mineral reserves are becoming more crucial in the age of AI and energy fusion. While Washington is rolling out AI enforcement systems domestically, securing access to global resources abroad is vital for maintaining the technocratic economy. Control of natural resources and digital infrastructure progresses hand in hand.
What stays hidden in the coverage is the ongoing nature of the empire. Trump’s supporters celebrate the move as “strength,” forgetting that similar strategies used by Clinton, Bush, Obama, and Biden were once criticized as deep-state overreach. The story shifts, the players change, but the core drama continues.
Guarded States: National Guard Mobilized in 19 States

National Guard Deployment Expands - Yahoo
The deployment of the National Guard across 19 states is presented as a crackdown on crime, immigration, and urban instability. Conservative outlets see it as Trump fulfilling promises to restore order, while leftist outlets view it as creeping authoritarianism. Both overlook the broader reality: this signifies the normalization of military presence in civilian life.
Since 2016, the National Guard has been activated more often than at any other time in U.S. history—whether for pandemics, protests, or disasters. Each deployment blurs the line between civilian government and military enforcement. What was once extraordinary now becomes normal, laying the groundwork for martial readiness beneath the surface of democracy.
The language is instructive. The Independent calls it a “push,” Fox calls it a “mobilization,” and Yahoo frames it as a “deployment.” All suggest necessity, as if this is a natural response to chaos. But who determines chaos? If crime and migration are flexible categories, then military presence can be justified indefinitely. The public’s consent isn’t asked; it’s created through headlines of danger.
This shift aligns with The Fallacious Belief in Government's description of the “Lifecycle of Government,” where emergency powers used to address temporary issues become permanent tools of control. Once the National Guard is established in 19 states, the precedent is set. Reversing this could be nearly impossible without dismantling the political class itself. And if it were reversed, an emergency would see them redeployed.
The bipartisan hypocrisy is obvious. If Biden had ordered such a mobilization, conservative America would condemn martial law. Under Trump, it is seen as patriotism, and it definitely is not how America’s founders used the term. This shows that the true loyalty of partisans is not to principle but to personality. It is how tyranny progresses: not by crushing resistance, but by redirecting it through partisan trust.

For years, AI’s role in tax enforcement was a quiet effort—hidden programs in GAO reports, small pilots focused on crypto transactions, and research described as fraud detection. Now, under Trump, it is being fully unleashed. The House has introduced bills specifically funding AI expansion at the IRS, and headlines highlight its potential to close the “tax gap.”
The familiar rhetoric goes: “protect taxpayers,” “catch fraud,” “close loopholes.” But behind these phrases lies the creation of a financial surveillance system. AI will analyze bank records, crypto transactions, and income histories, identifying anomalies that human auditors might overlook. The promise of increased efficiency hides the danger: every American’s financial life becomes data to be mined, scored, and penalized.
What is notable is the silence from Trump’s base. In the Obama or Biden years, such measures would trigger outrage as “deep state tyranny.” Now, the same voices praise it as smart governance or “trusting the plan.” This partisan double standard is exactly what allows Agenda 2030 policies to move forward with populist cover. When “their guy” enacts technocracy, resistance disappears.
The IRS’s AI implementation also aligns with larger digital control systems. AI tax enforcement works smoothly with CBDCs, biometric IDs, and carbon credit plans—all crucial parts of the Great Reset strategy. The tax code serves not only as a means to collect revenue but also as a tool to influence behavior, applying financial pressure to ensure compliance.
This moment highlights the main idea of The Fallacious Belief in Government: that government power, once given, always grows and never shrinks. AI in taxation won't be limited to fraudsters. It will also target small businesses, gig workers, and individuals resisting digital conformity. While claiming to protect dollars, it will also police dissent.
Ultimately, the IRS AI program isn't about filling a tax gap; it's about tightening control. The financial leash on every citizen is being shortened, and partisanship blinds the public to this growing grip.
The Spectrum of Control
This week’s stories reveal three layers of the same architecture. Abroad, U.S. warships promote empire through spectacle. At home, the National Guard maintains order through presence. And in the financial realm, AI enforces compliance through code. Each front—military, domestic, digital—serves the same master: centralized authority masked as protection.
The deeper irony is that resistance has been neutralized not by force but by trust. When “our side” enacts the agenda, outrage fades away. This is how Agenda 2030 progresses: not by pushing through globalist policies openly, but by gradually introducing them under the guise of conservatism. Tyranny takes many forms, but the system it supports remains the same.
