America on the Brink: ICE, NASA & Flood Chaos

from democracy-ish

This week, Waj and Danielle break down the terrifying acceleration of MAGA-driven collapse: ICE agents terrorize families, flood victims in Texas are left stranded, and top NASA scientists flee as the Trump regime purges expertise. Add to that economic freefall in red states—and it’s clear this isn’t just dysfunction. It’s destruction by design. How did we get here, who’s behind it, and how do we push back before it’s too late? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
