Something huge just happened today, and it feels like a shift in governance itself.
- The Federal Government Just Approved Massive Workforce Cut
- Trump’s administration directed up to 65% of the EPA’s workforce to be cut.
- USAID is being shut down. More federal agencies are expected to see major reductions.
- Musk was in today’s Cabinet meeting, pushing the “ghost employees” narrative, similar to how he gutted Twitter/X before bringing in AI-driven replacements.
Is this just trimming bureaucracy or laying the groundwork for AI and corporate-run governance?
Elon Musk Is Now a Key Government Insider
Musk sat in on today’s Cabinet meeting. He has no official role, yet he’s actively shaping policy.
He questioned whether government employees “even exist” or do real work.
Musk’s entire playbook at X was mass layoffs → AI automation.
If they’re cutting thousands of federal jobs, what replaces them? AI? Private contractors?
Trump Just Proposed Selling U.S. Citizenship for $5M
Trump announced a new “gold card” visa, allowing the ultra-wealthy to buy their way into citizenship.
Meanwhile, his administration is doubling down on immigrant crackdowns.
So citizenship is now a product? If you’re rich, borders don’t matter?
Praxis & The Future of Private, AI-Governed City-States?
Praxis is a real movement to create a private, self-governing network of elites.
It’s an invite-only nation, built outside of traditional government control.
What if this model isn’t just a weird side project—but the blueprint for where governance is heading?
The U.S. government is shrinking itself, selling access to the highest bidder, and embedding tech elites in decision-making.
The Big Question: Is This the Start of a Post-National, AI-Governed World? * Traditional government power is weakening. * Corporate influence and AI-driven governance are increasing. * Citizenship is becoming a product instead of a process. * Private “network nations” like Praxis are gaining traction.
This doesn’t feel like politics as usual. This feels like the first steps toward a completely different power structure.
Is anyone else seeing these patterns, or am I overthinking this?
