The “breakdown of trust” we witnessed this year was not a failure of enforcement.
It was a failure of design.
For decades we treated labels, stamps, and certificates as if they were reality itself.
In 2025, the world discovered the cost of that illusion.
But it also discovered the path forward:
Trust rooted not in symbols, but in the unforgeable details of the physical world.
The next era of global commerce won’t be built on proxies.
It will be built on truth embedded directly into the objects we depend on.

But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself.”
—Cicero
The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has been quietly disbanded with eight months left in its charter, according to the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) director.

While visiting The Bronx neighborhoods she represents and giving Turkeys to her constituents, #AOC meets #RETUMBA.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez aka AOC says “MTG is carefully timing her departure just 1-2 days after her pension kicks in and after making millions of dollars from insider trading stocks for weapons manufacturers and others while in office. She is saying a lot, but her actions have not backed up her rhetoric. For all her talk, she's STILL voting with them to gut healthcare and advance self-dealing corruption schemes.”
