Republicans Want You Sick, Tired, and Distracted | Karel Cast 25-164

Republicans are pushing policies that leave Americans with higher health premiums, fewer protections, and no real solutions—while Trump tries to rebrand “affordability” by blaming Democrats for an economy his party refuses to fix. Behind the scenes, GOP lawmakers are advancing legislation that completely ignores skyrocketing insurance rates.

At the same time, the economy continues to slide, and the message from the right is loud and clear:

Stay sick. Stay tired. Stay powerless.

LGBTQ leaders are sounding the alarm as authoritarianism spreads through American institutions. “Stop thinking you’re safe, because you’re not,” one warns. From ICE disabling security cameras to secretive abuses of power, systems meant to protect us are instead targeting marginalized communities—especially LGBTQ Americans.

This is why I’ve openly questioned staying in the United States. We’re watching constitutional norms erode in real time, and history tells us who becomes the first target.
