Canada is hitting back “twice as hard” at Trump’s tariffs. Ontario’s Premier is threatening to cut off U.S. energy, and Trudeau is targeting red states with retaliatory tariffs. Michigan flipped for Trump—now it could lose power. Tariffs have consequences, and Americans are about to feel them.

Sabotage. He’s gutting agencies that enforce environmental rules, worker protections, and media oversight—things he & Trump want gone. Less regulation means more room for misdeeds—we’re the ones who will pay the price.
