Trump’s “Woke” War: A Calculated Assault on the American Economy
A White House memo, driven by Russ Vought’s Christian nationalist ideology, has initiated a freeze on trillions of dollars in federal spending, ostensibly to combat perceived “woke” policies. This action, temporarily blocked by a federal judge, targets essential programs like infrastructure, healthcare, and disaster relief, potentially causing widespread economic chaos. The memo’s vague language and broad scope suggest a deliberate attempt at indiscriminate destruction, fueled by a belief that the current American system is irredeemable and requires a “counter-revolution.” This drastic measure, though illegal and unconstitutional, aligns with Vought’s vision of a theocratic government.
