America hired a serial bakrupt man and allowed him to put Stephen Miller in charge of policy.

His economic advisors are rewarded for sycophancy, and as a result, he started a trade war with China that backfired YUGELY.

Let's talk about the viability of their "security strategy," shall we?

Nick Fuentes is taking a victory lap, because in his mind, Donald Trump’s latest racist rant about Somalia wasn’t just another off-the-rails Cabinet-room tantrum. No, according to Fuentes, it was inspired by him. And naturally, he wants credit.

Since President Trump's second inauguration, the number of local police departments agreeing to coordinate with ICE has grown by more than 600%.

Deputizing police to be deportation agents doesn't make us safer. Communities nationwide are fighting back. 
Why local police officers are helping Trump with ICE raids
Trump has placed a huge bet that thousands of local cops can help.

Barely a week ago, we learned of Witkoff and Kushner’s plot to launder an unedited Russian proposal as US policy, primarily so that wealthy American businessmen can benefit from Russia’s natural resources. Now they’re meeting with Putin.
Vladimir Putin today, ahead of his meeting with Trump envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner to supposedly talk peace: “We have no intention of fighting Europe — I’ve said this a hundred times. But if Europe decides to start a war, we are ready right now.”

At one point or another, we're all going to need to see a doctor.

But our health care system remains unaffordable, inaccessible, and deeply dysfunctional. It is unacceptable.

That’s why a strong majority of Americans agree: We need Medicare for All.

TBF, I'm not sure they're actually trying to make Americans suffer and die. I think they just don't care if Americans suffer and die, as long as billionaires get tax cuts and shareholders get more profits.
More than half a million people, a number that grows every year.
Their response? They want to make it worse.
How many ways will they find to make Americans suffer & die?
