America is quickly devolving into a militarized technocratic surveillance state and a story that recently appeared on the Fox News network is enough to make you shudder at the possibilities.
A company called Foundation Robotics is now discussing potential “national security deployments” of its Phantom humanoid robots along the southern border. Foundation Robotics is a Silicon Valley-based startup focused on developing advanced humanoid robots for military and industrial applications, replacing humans in American factories and along the front lines in wars and tense border-policing situations.
The company reportedly received up to $100 million in backing from Saudi royals and also has one of President Trump’s sons, Eric Trump, as its chief strategy adviser. Its CEO, Sankaet Pathak, was the CEO of the bankrupt fintech firm Synapse before it collapsed amid accusations of unethical investment practices.
The journal Financial Debate wrote this about him last year:
“The fallout from Synapse’s failure, including millions of dollars in missing deposits and unresolved issues with partner banks, has cast a shadow over Pathak’s reputation and potential success with Foundation Robotics Labs.”
But now Pathak has resurfaced with a new company and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security may be getting ready to sign a fat contract with this sketchy character.
Fox News spoke with Pathak for an August 16 article, in which the tech CEO said he has already demonstrated the capabilities of the company’s Phantom MK1 robots to the Department of Homeland Security for border deployment.
“We’re in conversations with almost all national security government bodies, so Air Force, Navy, Army, DHS,” Pathak told Fox. “We continue to have dialogues. We’re starting to negotiate contracts and some applications for them.”
Pathak said Phantom MK1 robots are designed to navigate rugged terrain that can be difficult for vehicles, drones and fixed cameras.
“If drones and watchtowers were able to solve for everything, why do we still have humans at the border?” Pathak told the outlet.
The Phantom MK1 robot soldiers are already being beta tested by Ukraine in its war with Russia, CNBC recently reported.
Take a look at the fearsome MK1 humanoid robot in the 2-minute video below.
It was reported in on April 23, 2026 that the U.S. Marines have already signed a $24 million contract with Foundation:
Foundation Future Industries, a Silicon Valley startup developing humanoid robots, landed the $24 million contract to test its “Phantom” android with the Marine Corps, according to a Thursday, April 23, Fox Business report. Company founder and CEO Sankaet Pathak appeared alongside Eric (Trump), Foundation’s chief strategy advisor, on the network’s Mornings with Maria on Thursday to speak about the technology and similar advancements in China.
These developments would indicate we are one step away from seeing AI robot soldiers policing the streets of America and brutalizing human beings based on algorithmic orders designed to guard our all-important “national security.”
If the Flock camera controversy is any indication, abuses of this technology will get brushed aside as “misuse of the system,” leading to programmers or other human scapegoats being fired or prosecuted while the technology itself continues to be deployed and portrayed as “critical for our safety and security.”
Anything the robots do wrong will be blamed on faulty human programming, not the fact that robots should have never been unleashed on civil society in the first place. That’s the technocratic way.
The purpose is the same as with the “shock gloves” potentially being worn by ICE agents that I reported on last week. It’s always the same purpose. To strike fear into the hearts of average people who make up what globalist power elites consider the dregs of society, the ignorant masses. They know they are outnumbered and are only able to maintain their grip on power by creating a perception of invincibility. Hence, they have their Flock and Axon surveillance cameras (eyes) on every street, highway, parking lot, walking and bike path, their Raven listening devices hidden throughout our cities, and even the air above us is being slowly dominated by their spy drones.
Next up will be their AI humanoid robots deployed to “keep the peace” among an increasingly anxious populace, seeing their dollar devaluated, their jobs replaced by AI, their health and car insurance made unaffordable, and even food becoming totally unaffordable for a growing number.
This is why they need 9,000 AI data centers operating as military installations across the United States – to power the AI robots, drones, spy cams, digital/programmable money, biometric ID system and total surveillance grid.
They will have to deploy scarier and scarier technology to keep the people in line as the collapse takes hold and can no longer be denied.
This type of technology in the hands of a rogue government the likes of which we’ve seen in Washington since the Covid scamdemic hit in 2020, should send alarm bells ringing in every freedom-loving American.
First Lady Melania Trump has also been making the rounds promoting robots,
She told a crowd at the White House last September that “the robots are here” and that it is “our responsibility to prepare America’s children” for the AI-driven decades ahead.
Donald Trump runs the government and the world like a mob boss. He is very intent on building out the infrastructure of the beast system, from advanced 6G wireless that he admits has creepy surveillance capabilities, to an inexplicable number of AI data centers, to his family’s investment in drones, crypto, robots and Axon spy cameras, he’s become the technocrats’ biggest asset.
Let’s not forget who Trump’s mentor was: the late Roy Kohn, a New York City mob lawyer whose whole career was based on bullying and intimidating his way to the top.
To anyone who bends the knee and offers praise, Trump loves and condescendingly offers kudos, no matter how morally compromised they might be.
But anyone who dares to speak out against a Trump policy based on their own critical thinking skills will draw Trump’s ire and should expect to be crushed.
This is a very unhealthy environment because it means none of Trump’s top advisers are willing to confront him with hard facts he doesn’t want to hear, whether it be on his war with Iran, unleashing Israel on Lebanon and Gaza, or further weaponizing ICE and other federal agencies here at home.
With the world’s foremost chaos agent in the White House, his globalist puppet masters will continue to stir the pot, potentially up to the white-hot level of nuclear war, or anything else it might take to tear down what’s left of the post-World War II world order in preparation for the establishment of the new digital world order, or beast system.

Housing asylum seekers at RAF base ‘to cost £500 a night’ each
Story by Charles Hymas • 1
Housing asylum seekers at a former RAF base could cost more than £500 a night per migrant, a campaign group has claimed.
Paul Underwood from ” Protect the People ” says the first batch on 1250 migrants will contain gang members, extremists homosexuals and many ner-do-wells ”
Residents opposing the plans to place more than 1,200 asylum seekers at the former RAF base at Linton-on-Ouse in North Yorkshire made the calculation based on National Audit Office (NAO) figures for a similar scheme that Labour had abandoned because it was not good value for money .They claim the Home Office plans mean residents in their “geographically isolated” village of 600 adults will be outnumbered two to one, which would pose safeguarding risks for families and place “unsustainable” pressure on services.
In a 27-page submission appealing the move, the campaigners claimed it was an “insane” decision that could cost taxpayers more than £400m during the three years of its proposed operation.
According to the residents’ calculations, housing each migrant would be more than three times as costly as the current £145 a night for asylum seekers in hotels – and 20 times the £23.25 budget forum seekers in hotels – and 20 times the £23.25 budget for conventional “dispersal” accommodation, such as houses in multiple occupation (HMOs).
The present migrant bill is £42 bilion and people just want them sent home
One dead after foreign gang triple stabbing in west London
Story by Telegraph reporters
A person has died and two others have been injured in a triple stabbing in west London, the capital’s ambulance service has said.
paramedics and an air ambulance were called to the scene on Askew Road, Shepherd’s Bush, at around 8.20am on Tuesday.
A London Ambulance Service spokesman said: “We took two patients to hospital, but sadly, despite the best efforts of our crews, a patient was pronounced dead at the scene.”
This just in from the weird and wacky whirled of david VAUGHAN icke:
“We are already seeing what a hotter world looks like, with record heat and devastating wildfires across Britain and Europe.”
That actually made me laugh. Do tell. In mid August, the hottest month of the year, it’s 25 degrees. By the way, it’s also currently raining. All across the world, temperatures are below the average. The “devastating wildfires” this year in America cover 0.0004% of the country. Those wildfires are normal and natural, as are the tornados and “floods”. A flood is just where more water falls from the sky than a river can hold. Some trees can’t even germinate their seeds unless they’re in a fire, showing you that the fires have been happening so long that evolution has compensated. They can set fire to forests with a match, but they can’t fake tsunamis or melting glaciers or storms that tear the world to pieces, so it’s always “record heat” and “devastating wildfires”. If it’s so hot, how come all the ski resorts are still in business? That ice would be the first to melt wouldn’t it? But it’s beyond hopeless. With every “celebrity” constantly yapping for sheckels and the “BBC” going full blast thermal dystopia (whilst ignoring the very real immigrant invader dystopia), there’s not a chance in hell that the dullards will wake up.
“Britain’s water strategy in a nutshell:
. Sell off 35 reservoirs since 2017.
. Build no new reservoirs for 34 years.
. Approve 500 data centres that drink water like camels on a bender.”
Who were the 35 reservoirs sold to? Are they still operating as reservoirs? He doesn’t say. Why build new reservoirs when the existing ones never drop below 70% and the population supposedly stays the same? How on earth do closed-loop data centres drink water? Ignorance is bliss in a handbasket.
“But if a resurfaced image taken by a nasa rover is anything to go by, the aliens that call Mars home are land-walking ‘jellyfish’. The photo was taken by Curiosity in August 2023, 3,924 Martian days, or Sols, into the extraterrestrial explorer’s time exploring the red planet.”
This from the same loony who says we’re all in test tubes on the moon being controlled by lizard men from another dimension. I only mention it because of the laughable “3,924 Martian days”. 3 + 9 + 2 + 4 = 18. What a surprise. If good ol’ rover is gonna find anything on mars, it better stop rolling around arizona.
What VAUGHAN-icke NEVER reports is things like this:
“A 108-year-old woman was sexually assaulted and robbed in the French city of Lyon on Aug. 7, 2026.”
Raped by a Dead Eyed Immigrant of course. But jellyfish on mars and deadly temperatures and nonexistent water shortages, they’re all there every single day.
Can you imagine: The “migrant” is running – or is it crawling and dying of thirst? – across the border, and a “humanoid robot” comes hurtling out of the bushes like a gay terminator, plastered head to foot with coca cola signs, lifts the pwoor victim up over its “head” and runs off back the other way.
It isn’t fantasy “robots” you have to worry about. It’s the very real war.
the world will only know peace when israel is disarmed
They’ll target different people after hackers get into them.
side issue I haven’t seen reported much.
The Argies seem to be in full anger management against their government over the land sales to the
Kikes…serious enough if water cannon, rubber bullets & baton charges are being inflicted on a protesting public.
The tech companies are all fronts for MI/CIA , currently “negotiating” contracts and other shenanigans with US armed security forces; they are not an all of the sudden tech company doing wonders with AI, another fraud is in the air. Their CEO’s or whatever they call themselves are agents, are handed lots of money pretending to be businessmen. But robots will be on the streets soon, targeting normal regular people who by then will be starving and not very happy.
Sarah got addicted to camping gas at 14 and had to pull out all my teeth
Story by Neil Shaw
A woman who was hooked on £1.25 camping gas, buying up to 12 cans a day, ripped all of her teeth out after the habit led to severe toothache. Sarah Clarke, 38, started using butane, used for portable cooking stoves and some cigarette lighters, as a recreational drug at age 14, and by 18 she was hooked.The homemaker, from Leicester, said that no shop owner ever questioned her about her purchases, despite it being illegal to sell the gas to anyone under 18. After inhaling the gas every day for 15 years, Sarah was able to kick her habit in 2022, as it was her mum’s dying wish.
She has irreversible health issues, including nerve damage and early-onset Parkinson’s. Sarah is calling for tighter restrictions on the sale of butane gas. She said: “The first time I did it, I felt like it numbed everything that was going on in my life. I could go to the shops and easily buy 12 cans at age 15. No one would stop me.”I don’t understand why it’s still so easy and cheap to buy. I’m 38, but I look 78. The damage I’ve done to myself is irreversible.”
Sarah was first introduced to butane gas at age 14 by one of her friends, who was experimenting after finding a canister of the flammable gas in their parents’ home.
“Sarahs mum was so shocked when she found the cans, but she just thought I was experimenting with friends. She had no idea how bad it was”, Sarah said. By the age of 18, Sarah was getting through up to 12 cans of butane gas per day, and wouldn’t leave the house at all, except to go to the shops to get more of the drug.In 2022, Sarah suffered from a severe toothache due to the effects of her butane gas misuse. As she couldn’t afford an appointment at the dentist, she leaned on butane gas even more to numb the pain and eventually ended up ripping all of her own teeth out to stop the aching
.Glue and gas sniffers are known as Sniftafarians and the condition is highly addictive
Sarah says she really felt sorry for Kier Starmer to learn he was also a sniftafarian with boys pants, and hopes he can keep his teeth
Similar to vivek ramaswami, we have a scammy Indian at the forefront, every bit as American as George Washington and Robert Frost, doncha know!

There will be one unique Terminator programmed for every person on planet Earth. Each will have the mission of ruthless barbaric assassination. Since Jews are basically cowards and must always get others to do their dirty work, these Terminators will be the perfect minions to get the job done. As Reese said in T1 . . . “Listen and understand, that Terminator is out there, it can’t be bargained with, it can’t be reasoned with, it doesn’t feel pity or remorse or fear, and it absolutely will not stop… EVER, until you are dead.” The Jews are gonna make it happen, people. Just keep on ignoring it, keep on burying your head in the sand, and WATCH WHAT’S GONNA HAPPEN. Every last Jew needs to be exterminated before it is too late. If not, they are going to win, and you and your kin will be licking the toejam from their decroded feet and taking it up the ass every day for the rest of your dystopian lives.
