Trump in China: Follow the money & the AI Surveillance State Arms Race | Simon Dixon Hard Talk LIVE
Broadcast Date: 15 May 2026 | Duration: 3 hours 20 mins
When the technical and financial industrial complexes sit down with the CCP, it’s not about the political theater—it’s about following the money into the next phase of the global control grid.
In this full 3-hour and 20-minute broadcast of Simon Dixon HardTalk LIVE, we decode the massive geopolitical and monetary shifts quietly restructuring the global economy.
Part One features my deep dive on the Sulaiman Ahmed podcast, breaking down the Shanghai Summit and the realities of the AI surveillance state arms race. We explore how the engineered energy crisis, the collapse of the petrodollar, and severe bond market distress are being used to justify a historic, fiscal dominance money-printing bailout. This is a managed transition to a multipolar world where the US empire is deliberately asset-stripped to fund a trillion-dollar AI data center buildout, forcing the middle class into an affordability crisis while concentrating wealth upward into the hands of the technocratic elite.
In Part Two, Catherine Austin Fitts, Iain Davis, and I join the Kyle Chassé podcast to expose the underlying architecture of this programmable control grid and lay out the blueprint for opting out. We dissect the ongoing multi-trillion dollar financial coup, the weaponization of public-private partnerships like Palantir, and the legislative Trojan horses—like the Genius and Clarity Acts—designed to trap you in a three-lock programmable money system. To survive the incoming fiat crack-up boom and the engineered "Great Poisoning" of our food systems, sovereign wealth builders must aggressively decentralize.
We detail exactly how to protect yourself by moving into hard assets, utilizing self-custody Bitcoin to escape the surveillance state, and building robust, local parallel systems to secure your supply chains, wealth, and freedom.
