The “Genesis Mission” | Giving The Nation Over To The Technocrats

Patrick Wood | Technocracy.News

A new “Manhattan Project” has been declared by President Trump to urgently accelerate America straight into Technocracy.  All the stops have been removed. No nook and cranny of American life will escape. No element of science will remain untouched. The EO was undoubtedly written by Technocrats for Technocrats. It will forever backstop any whim of Technocrats with trillions of dollars of taxpayer funds, accelerating America into a new age of Dark Enlightenment. THIS IS THE FINAL BETRAYAL!

Either Trump is nationalizing the entire AI industry, or the Technocrats are nationalizing the Federal government. I think the latter.

I will attempt to parse the Executive Order released on November 24, 2025.

Notes By: Patrick Wood

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered:

Section 1.  Purpose.  From the founding of our Republic, scientific discovery and technological innovation have driven American progress and prosperity.  Today, America is in a race for global technology dominance in the development of artificial intelligence (AI), an important frontier of scientific discovery and economic growth.  To that end, my Administration has taken a number of actions to win that race, including issuing multiple Executive Orders and implementing America’s AI Action Plan, which recognizes the need to invest in AI-enabled science to accelerate scientific advancement.  In this pivotal moment, the challenges we face require a historic national effort, comparable in urgency and ambition to the Manhattan Project that was instrumental to our victory in World War II and was a critical basis for the foundation of the Department of Energy (DOE) and its national laboratories.

Patrick Wood note: America is in race with itself, but declared with upmost urgency. America’s AI Action Plan was written by Michael J. Kratsios, Assistant to the President for Science and Technology and David O. Sacks, Special Advisor for AI and Crypto. The EO is undoubtedly ghost written by same two Arch-Technocrats. The phrase “accelerate scientific advancement” refers to “accelerationism”, which is part of the Dark Enlightenment. Marc Andreessen wrote in his Techno-Optimist Manifesto: “We believe in accelerationism – the conscious and deliberate propulsion of technological development – to ensure the fulfillment of the Law of Accelerating Returns. To ensure the techno-capital upward spiral continues forever.”

This order launches the “Genesis Mission” as a dedicated, coordinated national effort to unleash a new age of AI‑accelerated innovation and discovery that can solve the most challenging problems of this century.  The Genesis Mission will build an integrated AI platform to harness Federal scientific datasets — the world’s largest collection of such datasets, developed over decades of Federal investments — to train scientific foundation models and create AI agents to test new hypotheses, automate research workflows, and accelerate scientific breakthroughs.  The Genesis Mission will bring together our Nation’s research and development resources — combining the efforts of brilliant American scientists, including those at our national laboratories, with pioneering American businesses; world-renowned universities; and existing research infrastructure, data repositories, production plants, and national security sites — to achieve dramatic acceleration in AI development and utilization.  We will harness for the benefit of our Nation the revolution underway in computing, and build on decades of innovation in semiconductors and high-performance computing.  The Genesis Mission will dramatically accelerate scientific discovery, strengthen national security, secure energy dominance, enhance workforce productivity, and multiply the return on taxpayer investment into research and development, thereby furthering America’s technological dominance and global strategic leadership.

Patrick Wood note: What are “Federal scientific datasets”? In part, those are the datasets freed by DOGE into the cloud, where Palantir can roll all into a digital panopticon. Technocrats lust for data. All data. Exhaustive data. Hidden data. America’s system of national laboratories is organized under the Department of Energy, so it makes sense to “secure energy dominance” – but for whom? AI data centers? On January 25, 2025 predicted “A world in which human wages crash from AI” as a result of Accelerationism.

Sec. 2.  Establishment of the Genesis Mission.  (a)  There is hereby established the Genesis Mission (Mission), a national effort to accelerate the application of AI for transformative scientific discovery focused on pressing national challenges.

Editor’s note: The word “accelerate” appears in the EO six times. Do you see accelerationism blasting through? – End Editor’s note.

(b)  The Secretary of Energy (Secretary) shall be responsible for implementing the Mission within DOE, consistent with the provisions of this order, including, as appropriate and authorized by law, setting priorities and ensuring that all DOE resources used for elements of the Mission are integrated into a secure, unified platform.  The Secretary may designate a senior political appointee to oversee day-to-day operations of the Mission.

Patrick Wood note:  The Secretary of Energy is currently Chris Wright, a Technocrat, entrepreneur, and engineer. He is now elevated as Arch-Technocrat to oversee the Mission.

(c)  The Assistant to the President for Science and Technology (APST) shall provide general leadership of the Mission, including coordination of participating executive departments and agencies (agencies) through the National Science and Technology Council (NSTC) and the issuance of guidance to ensure that the Mission is aligned with national objectives.

Patrick Wood note: The APST is none other than Arch-Technocrat Michael Kratsios, who is designated as the leader of the Mission. Kratsios was an author of America’s AI Action Plan.

Sec. 3.  Operation of the American Science and Security Platform.  (a)  The Secretary shall establish and operate the American Science and Security Platform (Platform) to serve as the infrastructure for the Mission with the purpose of providing, in an integrated manner and to the maximum extent practicable and consistent with law:

(i)    high-performance computing resources, including DOE national laboratory supercomputers and secure cloud-based AI computing environments, capable of supporting large-scale model training, simulation, and inference;

(ii)   AI modeling and analysis frameworks, including AI agents to explore design spaces, evaluate experimental outcomes, and automate workflows;

(iii)  computational tools, including AI-enabled predictive models, simulation models, and design optimization tools;

Patrick Wood note: Simulation is the creation and use of a model (a “digital twin”) that imitates the behavior of a real or imagined system so you can study it without acting on the real thing. It lets you run “what-if” scenarios in a virtual or abstract environment.

(iv)   domain-specific foundation models across the range of scientific domains covered;

(v)    secure access to appropriate datasets, including proprietary, federally curated, and open scientific datasets, in addition to synthetic data generated through DOE computing resources, consistent with applicable law; applicable classification, privacy, and intellectual property protections; and Federal data-access and data-management standards; and

Patrick Wood note: Again, all the data is view here: top secret data, real-time data collected by the government, and new DOE sources of synthetic data.  Synthetic data is information that is artificially generated rather than collected directly from real‑world events or people. It is created by algorithms or simulations to mimic the patterns and statistics of real data without containing the original records. 

(vi)   experimental and production tools to enable autonomous and AI-augmented experimentation and manufacturing in high-impact domains.

(b)  The Secretary shall take necessary steps to ensure that the Platform is operated in a manner that meets security requirements consistent with its national security and competitiveness mission, including applicable classification, supply chain security, and Federal cybersecurity standards and best practices.

(c)  Within 90 days of the date of this order, the Secretary shall identify Federal computing, storage, and networking resources available to support the Mission, including both DOE on-premises and cloud-based high-performance computing systems, and resources available through industry partners.  The Secretary shall also identify any additional partnerships or infrastructure enhancements that could support the computational foundation for the Platform.

Patrick Wood note: This means that all of America’s AI infrastructure will be rolled into a federally controlled entity. In effect, this is the nationalization of the entire industry.

(d)  Within 120 days of the date of this order, the Secretary shall:

(i)   identify a set of initial data and model assets for use in the Mission, including digitization, standardization, metadata, and provenance tracking; and

Patrick Wood note: Digitization is the process of converting analog information or physical objects into a digital format that computers can store, process, and transmit: paper documents, photographs, audio tapes, or analog signals. This is the wholesale digitization of government.

(ii)  develop a plan, with appropriate risk-based cybersecurity measures, for incorporating datasets from federally funded research, other agencies, academic institutions, and approved private-sector partners, as appropriate.

Patrick Wood note:The Mission will gather all data from all sources, including private data brokers.

(e)  Within 240 days of the date of this order, the Secretary shall review capabilities across the DOE national laboratories and other participating Federal research facilities for robotic laboratories and production facilities with the ability to engage in AI-directed experimentation and manufacturing, including automated and AI-augmented workflows and the related technical and operational standards needed.

Patrick Wood note: Robotic laboratories are labs in which robots and automation systems perform a significant portion of experimental or routine lab work that humans would traditionally do by hand. In practice, this usually means robotic arms, automated liquid handlers, and coordinated software running protocols with minimal human intervention.

(f)  Within 270 days of the date of this order, the Secretary shall, consistent with applicable law and subject to available appropriations, seek to demonstrate an initial operating capability of the Platform for at least one of the national science and technology challenges identified pursuant to section 4 of this order.

Sec. 4.  Identification of National Science and Technology Challenges.  (a)  Within 60 days of the date of this order, the Secretary shall identify and submit to the APST a detailed list of at least 20 science and technology challenges of national importance that the Secretary assesses to have potential to be addressed through the Mission and that span priority domains consistent with National Science and Technology Memorandum 2 of September 23, 2025, including:

(i)    advanced manufacturing;

(ii)   biotechnology;

(iii)  critical materials;

(iv)   nuclear fission and fusion energy;

(v)    quantum information science; and

(vi)   semiconductors and microelectronics.

Patrick Wood note: This takes into view all elements of NBIC (Nano-Bio-Info-Cogno) convergence, but AI is the backbone.

(b)  Within 30 days of submission of the list described in subsection (a) of this section, the APST shall review the proposed list and, working with participating agency members of the NSTC, coordinate the development of an expanded list that can serve as the initial set of national science and technology challenges to be addressed by the Mission, including additional challenges proposed by participating agencies through the NSTC, subject to available appropriations.

Patrick Wood note:  This is an open-ended fishing expedition to create projects at any level and for any purpose.

(c)  Following development of the expanded list described in subsection (b) of this section, agencies participating in the Mission shall use the Platform to advance research and development aligned with the national science and technology challenges identified in the expanded list, consistent with applicable law and their respective missions, and subject to available appropriations.

Patrick Wood note: There is no hint of how much the Mission will cost, but it will be in the trillions. The word “appropriate” appears 9 times in this EO, but there is no definition of what that means. In other words, it is open-ended.

(d)  On an annual basis thereafter, the Secretary shall review and update the list of challenges in consultation with the APST and the NSTC to reflect progress achieved, emerging national needs, and alignment with my Administration’s research and development priorities.

Sec. 5.  Interagency Coordination and External Engagement.  (a)  The APST, through the NSTC, and with support from the Federal Chief Data Officer Council and the Chief AI Officer Council, shall convene relevant and interested agencies to:

(i)    assist participating agencies in aligning, to the extent permitted by law, their AI-related programs, datasets, and research and development activities with the objectives of the Mission in their respective areas of expertise, while avoiding duplication of effort across the Federal Government and promoting interoperability;

(ii)   identify data sources that may support the Mission’s aim;

Patrick Wood note: DOGE identified lots of Agency data and proceeded to snatch it into the cloud. Identifying hidden data will be harder, but now Technocrats have an open-ended “license to steal”. 

(iii)  develop a process and resourcing plan in coordination with participating agencies for integrating appropriate and available agency data and infrastructure into the Mission, to the extent permitted by law and subject to available appropriations, including methods under which all agencies contributing to the Mission are encouraged to implement appropriate risk-based security measures that reflect cybersecurity best practices;

(iv)   launch coordinated funding opportunities or prize competitions across participating agencies, to the extent permitted by law and subject to available appropriations, to incentivize private-sector participation in AI-driven scientific research aligned with Mission objectives; and

Patrick Wood note: Now private companies are backstopped, if not outright nationalized, to join the Mission: OpenAI, Anthropic, X, Google, Amazon, etc. Project Stargate was just the beginning; there will be no ending.

(v)    establish mechanisms to coordinate research and development funding opportunities and experimental resources across participating agencies, ensuring agencies can participate effectively in the Mission.

(b)  The APST shall coordinate with relevant agencies in establishing, consistent with existing authorizing statutes and subject to available appropriations, competitive programs for research fellowships, internships, and apprenticeships focused on the application of AI to scientific domains identified as national challenges for the Mission, to include placement of program participants at DOE national laboratories and other participating Federal research facilities, with the purpose of providing access to the Platform and training in AI-enabled scientific discovery.

(c)  The Secretary, in coordination with the APST and the Special Advisor for AI and Crypto, shall establish mechanisms for agency collaboration with external partners possessing advanced AI, data, or computing capabilities or scientific domain expertise, including through cooperative research and development agreements, user facility partnerships, or other appropriate arrangements with external entities to support and enhance the activities of the Mission, and shall ensure that such partnerships are structured to preserve the security of Federal research assets and maximize public benefit.  To facilitate these collaborations, the Secretary shall:

Patrick Wood note: Here are the actors running the show: the Secretary (Chis Wright), the ASPT (Michael Kratsios) and the Special Advisor for AI and Crypto (David Sacks). The three amigos – all Arch-Technocrats – in charge of the biggest project since the Manhattan Project.

As a Special Advisor to the President, David Sacks has no authority to do anything. He receives no salary and should have been gone after 130 days per federal regulations concerning the position. In short, he is an interloper, a carpetbagger, and a fraud. Still, he is masquerading as AI and Crypto czar for Trump. This man should be run out of Washington, DC.

(i)    develop standardized partnership frameworks, including cooperative research and development or other appropriate agreements, and data-use and model‑sharing agreements;

(ii)   establish clear policies for ownership, licensing, trade-secret protections, and commercialization of intellectual property developed under the Mission, including innovations arising from AI-directed experiments;

Patrick Wood note: The issue of “ownership, licensing, trade-secret protections, and commercialization of intellectual property ” cuts to the heart of the matter: The private partners get all the rewards while the taxpayers foot the bill.

(iii)  implement uniform and stringent data access and management processes and cybersecurity standards for non-Federal collaborators accessing datasets, models, and computing environments, including measures requiring compliance with classification, privacy, and export-control requirements, as well as other applicable laws; and

Patrick Wood note: Shades of nationalization. The federal government will oversee the access of data extending to “non-Federal collaborators.”

(iv)   establish procedures to ensure the highest standards of vetting and authorization of users and collaborators seeking access to the resources of the Mission and associated research activities, including the Platform and associated Federal research resources.

(d)  The APST, through the NSTC, shall, to the extent appropriate, identify opportunities for international scientific collaboration to support activities under the Mission.

Sec. 6.  Evaluation and Reporting.  (a)  Within 1 year of the date of this order, and on an annual basis thereafter, the Secretary shall submit a report to the President, through the APST and the Director of the Office of Management and Budget, describing:

(i)    the Platform’s operational status and capabilities;

(ii)   progress toward integration across DOE national laboratories and other participating Federal research partners, including shared access to computing resources, data infrastructure, and research facilities;

Patrick Wood note: The technocrat goal of prying open the data and systems contained in our National Laboratories is clearly seen here.

(iii) the status of user engagement, including participation of student researchers and any related training;

(iv)   updates on research efforts and outcomes achieved, including measurable scientific advances, publications, and prototype technologies;

(v)    the scope and outcomes of public-private partnerships, including collaborative research projects and any technology transitions or commercialization activities; and

(vi)   any identified needs or recommendations for authorities or interagency support to achieve the Mission’s objectives.

Sec. 7.  General Provisions.  (a)  Nothing in this order shall be construed to impair or otherwise affect:

(i)   the authority granted by law to an executive department or agency, or the head thereof; or

(ii)  the functions of the Director of the Office of Management and Budget relating to budgetary, administrative, or legislative proposals.

(b)  This order shall be implemented consistent with applicable law and subject to the availability of appropriations.

(c)  This order is not intended to, and does not, create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or in equity by any party against the United States, its departments, agencies, or entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any other person.

(d)  The costs for publication of this order shall be borne by the Department of Energy.

DONALD J. TRUMP

THE WHITE HOUSE, November 24, 2025.

Patrick Wood Conclusion: Trump and his Arch-Technocrats will undoubtedly lobby Congress for funding for this monstrosity. Congress will roll over and give them whatever they ask for: funds for more AI data centers, more funds for energy and grid development, and funds for data rollup and consolidation. Worse,  this gives Technocracy an open checkbook to destroy our nation for good.

Courtenay and I didn’t anticipate the Launching The Genesis Mission, but it is the fitting end for our new book, The Final Betrayal. Honestly, if you have read this far in this article, you are cheating yourself if you don’t buy this book immediately, and more to share. This is an existential risk to America.

Trump isn’t breaking any campaign promises per se, other than failure to Make America Great Again. No, this is a total betrayal. No person I know voted for this last November, nor was there an inkling of what has transpired in the last 12 months. Now we risk being completely consumed by this nightmare system.
