Bilderberg's 2023 Agenda for Global Control: AI, CBDC, China, Censorship, and More

Article audio sponsored by The John Birch Society

What do the would-be Masters of the Universe have planned for us for the coming year? Economic collapse? A new digital currency? Expanded surveillance state? Global food shortages? Energy grid collapse? Pandemic 2.0? We do not know precisely, but we can get a general idea of the ugly agenda the globalists are pursuing from the just-concluded Bilderberg meeting. This is the annual ultra-secretive, ultra-high-level assembly of the world movers and shakers of Big Finance, Big Business, Big Media, Big Tech, Big Pharma, and Big Government: Goldman Sachs, Deutsche Bank, Prudential, AXA, Google, Microsoft, Palantir, DeepMind, OpenAI, Shell, Pfizer, Merck, Bloomberg, The Economist, The Atlantic, Financial Times, Le Temps, NATO, European Parliament, European Commission, U.S. Federal Government. The group takes its name from the Bilderberg Hotel in the Netherlands, the location of its first meeting in 1954.

The luxurious and historic Pestana Palace Hotel in Lisbon, Portugal, was the venue for the 69th meeting of the Bilderberg Group (BG), held May 18 to 21. The three-day confab of the globalists was, as usual, ignored by the major media, except (as usual) to report that only tinfoil hat “conspiracy theorists” would insist on seeing anything sinister regarding this gathering of elites who have a track record of promoting politicians and policies that concentrate political and economic power in their hands.

A brief press release from the group announced that “About 130 participants from 23 countries have confirmed their attendance. As ever, a diverse group of political leaders and experts from industry, finance, academia, labour and the media has been invited.” (The official list of participants is provided below.)

Diversity? More Like Global Conformity

Diverse group? Well, diverse only in the sense that they come from diverse nationalities, occupations, and fields of expertise. But completely homogenous and unified when it comes to world view and ideology. They are all in on the Great Reset, their grand plan to “reset” humanity, as Klaus Schwab and the World Economic Forum (WEF) have infamously proposed and are relentlessly promoting. Don’t be fooled by false claims that Bilderberg and WEF are competing organizations. While the WEF is the larger, flashier organization, with its annual Davos extravaganzas of billionaires, presidents, and prime ministers, it is a junior partner to Bilderberg in the globalist scheme of things. Almost all of the Bilderbergers are also WEFers, and Børge Brende of Norway, president of the World Economic Forum, was one of the oligarchs at this year’s Bilderberg meeting in Lisbon.

Bilderberg sits atop (or near the top) of the globalist pyramid of power, devising, revising, promulgating, and coordinating the latest blueprints for their developing New World Order. The WEF, Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), Royal Institute of International Affairs (RIIA, also known as Chatham House), Trilateral Commission, Council of Councils, Group of Thirty (G30), Club of Rome, Atlantic Institute, Aspen Institute, Brookings Institution, and similar organizations operate as transmission belts of the Bilderberg party line, as well as recruitment fields for placement and promotion of Bilderberg-selected candidates into key positions of world influence. Thus, in less than 70 years, Bilderbergers have become the Insiders-of-insiders in the game of global machinations.

Kissinger, Rockefeller, and the “Secret Cabal” Admission

The grand doyen of Bilderberg is former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, who has been a participant of these events since 1957 (as well as a member of the group’s Steering Committee for many years). The cadaverous Dr. K attended the Lisbon affair just days shy of his 100th birthday. Although there are no reports that he was wheeled in on a gurney with an iron lung, it is not likely that he will attend any future Bilderberg Meetings. Along these lines, he is following closely behind his patron and mentor David Rockefeller (chairman, Chase Manhattan Bank; chairman, CFR; chairman-founder, the Trilateral Commission; member, Bilderberg Member Advisory Group), who died in 2017 at the age of 101. (See here for a detailed rundown on Mr. Rockefeller.)

In Memoirs, his 2002 autobiography, David Rockefeller — known as “Mr. Globalist” — made this startling confession:

For more than a century ideological extremists at either end of the political spectrum have seized upon well-publicized incidents such as my encounter with Castro to attack the Rockefeller family for the inordinate influence they claim we wield over American political and economic institutions. Some even believe we are part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United States, characterizing my family and me as ‘internationalists’ and of conspiring with others around the world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure — one world, if you will. If that’s the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it.

Like Mr. Rockefeller, Dr. K, the current eminence grise of the global insider set, will soon find out that the Supreme Judge of this world is not impressed by all the worldly fame, wealth, power, honors, and plaudits he has accumulated. We do not know what Kissinger told this year’s Bilderbergers beyond the snippets of his speech on Ukraine as filtered by The Economist, which has served as one of the BG’s trusted propaganda outlets for many years.

Tyrannical Agenda

The 2023 Bilderberg press release states:

The key topics for discussion this year are:

AI

Banking System

China

Energy Transition

Europe

Fiscal Challenges

India

Industrial Policy and Trade

NATO

Russia

Transnational Threats

Ukraine

US Leadership

Although AI (artificial intelligence) heads the list of topics because the topics are listed alphabetically, there is no question that AI is indeed a top concern for the BG/WEF one-worlders. They understand its immense potential for reengineering and controlling human society. They want to be able to not just know every move you make and every breath you take, but also be able to monitor (and even control) every word you speak, everything you read, every thought you think. So, for the past several years, AI has been a top priority for WEF events and WEF participants and contributors. Among the American AI leaders at BG this year were: Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI; Alex Karp, CEO of Palantir Technologies Inc.; Satya Nadella, CEO of Microsoft Corporation; Eric E. Schmidt, former CEO and chair of Google LLC; and Peter Thiel, president, Thiel Capital LLC. And, ominously, collaborating with them on the political front are the following Biden administration apparatchiks who attended Bilderberg: Avril Haines, Director of National Intelligence; Jen Easterly, Director of the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency; Tarun Chhabra, Senior Director for Technology and National Security, National Security Council; and Thomas Wright, Senior Director for Strategic Planning, National Security Council

“Master of the World”

In his keynote address to the assembled globalists at the 2023 World Government Summit, WEF top dog Klaus Schwab chillingly rhapsodized on the AI revolution. “And I agree,” he said, “artificial intelligence, but not only artificial intelligence, but also the metaverse, neospace technologies, and I could go on and on…synthetic biology. Our life in ten years from now will be completely different, very much affected. And, who masters those technologies, in some way, will be the master of the world.”

War on Cash

Concerning the topics of “Banking System” and “Fiscal Challenges,” we can be fairly certain, based on the escalating propaganda push by the various globalist organizations and their allied think tanks, as well as recent concrete moves by central banks and governments, that the Bilderberg elites discussed the means and timelines for implementing central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) and the concomitant outlawing of cryptocurrencies outside of their control. Lisbon Bilderberg attendee Brian Deese, a former BlackRock executive, while serving as director of Biden’s National Economic Council, stated that “consistent with the President’s directive to place the ‘highest urgency’ on research and development of a U.S. central bank digital currency (CBDC), the Administration encourages the Federal Reserve to continue its research and experimentation.” “We will also launch an interagency working group to support Federal Reserve efforts,” he continued, “by the considering [sic] policy implications of a potential CBDC, especially for our national security.”

Communist China, the Globalist Model

On the topic of China, no “expert” — with the exception of Henry Kissinger — is currently more celebrated by the establishment than Elizabeth Economy, Biden’s top China Hand. The Bilderberg press release describes her merely as “Senior Advisor for China, Department of Commerce.” Dr. Economy is much more than that, of course. In addition to writing many highly touted books and articles on China, her bio at Stanford University’s Hoover Institution, where she was a senior fellow, says “She has taught undergraduate and graduate level courses at Columbia University, Johns Hopkins University’s Paul H. Nitze School of Advanced International Studies, and the University of Washington’s Jackson School of International Studies.” The most important notch on her curriculum vitae, however, is her long stint on the staff of the CFR, “where she served as the C.V. Starr senior fellow and director for Asia Studies for over a decade.” Importantly, she has also served on the boards of trustees of the Asia Foundation and the National Committee on U.S.-China Relations, and as vice chair of WEF’s Global Agenda Council on the Future of China, all of which are key organizations that have helped build up Communist China while stripping away America’s manufacturing base and technological leadership.

Because of her more-recent, carefully measured criticism of China’s communist regime, Dr. Economy provides Team Biden with a thin camouflage to disguise its continuing pro-CCP (Chinese Communist Party) policies on trade, energy, climate, technology transfers, capital investment, subversion, espionage, fentanyl, migration, and more. But it is all a rhetorical feint. President Donald Trump’s China policies upset the 40-year pro-CCP (and anti-American) program of the Kissinger/CFR/WEF/BG cabal. Just as important, those policies also resonated with the American electorate, which could see the suicidal endgame of the cabal’s pro-Beijing New World Order. So, Kissinger, Economy, and the rest of the globalist choir have had to dampen their public expressions of ardor for Chairman Xi’s dictatorship. But, make no mistake, the globalists have not reversed their treasonous path vis à vis Communist China; the Bilderbergers of Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase, BlackRock, Carlyle Group, Google, Microsoft, et al., are pushing forward with their Great Reset.
