The term "tricoms" generally refers to members of the Trilateral Commission, an influential non-governmental organization founded in 1973 by prominent political and business leaders from North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific. Its goal is to foster closer cooperation among these regions on global issues. The group includes notable figures from various sectors and aims to address challenges such as economic stability, security, and environmental concerns. However, the term can sometimes be used pejoratively in conspiracy theories to suggest a secretive elite agenda.
