DOGE: The Trojan Horse to Destroy America

How a Manufactured Crisis is Being Used to Dismantle the Government, Crash the Economy, and Pave the Way for Fascist Rule

If you’ve been following my DOGE Tracker, you know that the Department of Government Extinction (let’s not pretend it’s about “efficiency”) is carrying out a coordinated, strategic attack on American governance. I’ve been documenting its every move, and now, it’s time to step back and look at the bigger picture.

This isn’t just about a few bad policies or a bloated bureaucracy getting trimmed down. This is a deliberate plan—not just to shrink the government, but to wreck the economy, dismantle our institutions, and make Americans so desperate they’ll accept whatever authoritarian solution is handed to them.

We are on a runaway train toward economic collapse—and the people at the controls know exactly what they’re doing.

The Plan Is Not to Govern—It’s to Collapse the System

If this administration were simply incompetent, we’d expect mismanagement, maybe some bad policy decisions. But that’s not what’s happening. This is too synchronized, too precise in its damage.

Let’s connect the dots:

1. Mass Layoffs of Federal Employees—Destabilizing the Job Market

They are firing hundreds of thousands of federal employees, gutting entire agencies under the guise of “efficiency.”

The Reality:

• These aren’t just bureaucrats sitting behind desks. Many of these are essential workers—scientists, disaster response coordinators, health officials, inspectors, and law enforcement personnel.

• These jobs pay above-average wages with benefits, meaning that gutting them will flood the job market with displaced workers, increasing competition for already scarce jobs.

• This workforce supports local economies—when they’re gone, small businesses in those regions will collapse, home values will drop, and unemployment will skyrocket.

And where will these newly unemployed workers turn? To a social safety net that’s being gutted in real-time.

2. Mass Deportations—Crushing Labor Supply, Skyrocketing Prices

While slashing jobs in government, they’re also planning to deport millions of undocumented workers—many of whom make up the backbone of critical industries like agriculture, construction, food service, and elder care.

The Reality:

• Fewer farmworkers = Higher food prices. Most Americans don’t want to pick crops for as little as $3/hour or even less. With a sudden labor shortage, farms will either shut down or raise wages significantly, which means food costs will spike.

• Fewer construction workers = Housing crisis accelerates. You think housing is unaffordable now? Wait until millions of construction workers are gone, and projects grind to a halt. Expect skyrocketing rents, fewer new homes, and inflation to soar as the cost of shelter climbs.

• Fewer service workers = Economic contraction. Restaurants, hotels, and home healthcare rely heavily on migrant labor. With fewer workers, businesses will close or raise prices, further driving inflation.

3. Gutting Public Health While Emerging Diseases Spread

At a time when new disease threats are emerging, we should be expanding our public health workforce—not firing the people responsible for tracking and containing outbreaks.

The Reality:

• They fired public health experts at the CDC, NIH, and HHS, leaving us less prepared for disease outbreaks, food safety issues, and biosecurity threats.

• The U.S. is experiencing its first measles death in a decade, right as childhood vaccination rates decline.

• Avian flu has jumped to cattle, raising concerns about food supply safety and potential human exposure.

• On a global scale, they slashed funding for disease prevention programs that help contain tuberculosis, malaria, and HIV before they reach our borders.

Public health crises don’t just appear out of nowhere—they emerge when systems fail. We are dismantling those systems in real time while the risks grow.

4. Tariffs That Function as Hidden Taxes on Working Americans

At the same time they’re gutting jobs and crushing the labor force, they’re also raising the cost of everything through tariffs that serve no real economic purpose.

The Reality:

• Tariffs don’t punish corporations—they pass the costs down to consumers.

• Higher import taxes mean more expensive groceries, electronics, and everyday essentials for working-class Americans.

• Foreign governments retaliate with their own tariffs, hurting U.S. manufacturers and farmers.

Inflation is bad enough. Now they’re deliberately making it worse by adding unnecessary costs to essential goods.

If You Believe in This Fight, Help Keep It Alive

There’s still more below, I just need a moment of your time.

The American Manifesto isn’t backed by corporations. There are no ads, no paywalls, no billionaires funding it.

It’s just one person, fighting like hell to expose the truth and give you the weapons to push back.

If you value this work—if you want this movement to keep growing, keep calling out fascism without fear, and keep fighting for the future we deserve—then I need your support.

Join the fight. Become a supporter. Every contribution keeps this mission alive.

Because silence is surrender. We do not surrender. We are #TheRelentless.

5. Tax Cuts for the Rich, While Slashing Social Services

They claim we “can’t afford” things like healthcare, food assistance, or disaster relief—yet somehow, there’s always enough money for massive tax cuts for the ultra-wealthy.

The Reality:

• Corporate tax cuts don’t “trickle down”—they inflate stock buybacks and CEO bonuses while workers see none of the benefits.

• Budget cuts hit programs that millions of working-class Americans rely on—Medicare, food stamps, affordable housing, and more.

• The end goal? Shrink the safety net until it collapses, leaving desperate people with nowhere to turn.

This isn’t about “balancing the budget.” This is about creating economic desperation.

6. Slashing Foreign Aid—Fueling the Very Crises They Claim to Oppose

Foreign aid isn’t just charity—it’s one of the most effective tools we have to prevent the very problems they claim to care about. Cutting funding to humanitarian aid, disease prevention, and counterterrorism efforts isn’t just reckless—it’s actively fueling instability that will directly impact Americans.

They claim to be against illegal immigration, but their policies will create the conditions for mass migration on a scale we haven’t seen in decades. They claim to want to keep America safe, but they’re helping to create the very forces that radicalize people against us—just like we saw with Al Qaeda before 9/11.

The Reality:

• More wars, more refugees, more migration. Cutting food assistance, disaster relief, and economic support will drive millions of desperate people to flee unstable regions—many of them toward the U.S. border.

• More radicalization. When governments collapse and people are left starving and hopeless, extremist groups step in to recruit. That’s how Al Qaeda gained power in the 1990s, and it’s how new anti-American militant groups will rise again.

• More disease outbreaks reaching us. The U.S. has long invested in stopping tuberculosis, malaria, and HIV at the source—before they spread globally. Cutting these programs means higher risk of outbreaks reaching our borders.

You can’t destabilize the world and expect America to stay safe. Chaos abroad means chaos at home. And that’s exactly what they’re setting us up for.

7. Giving Up Foreign Influence—Turning Our Back on Allies and Empowering Our Enemies

For decades, America’s economic strength and national security have relied on global influence and strategic alliances. By abandoning our allies, sabotaging our own credibility, and creating a power vacuum, we are paving the way for China and Russia to reshape the global order—without us.

We’ve already seen the damage:

• Berating and undermining Zelenskyy while cutting support for Ukraine, all while Russia regains influence in Eastern Europe.

• Weakening NATO by questioning our commitments and threatening to abandon our security guarantees.

• Sabotaging economic agreements that have helped maintain our financial dominance.

Meanwhile, China is actively expanding its global reach through its Belt and Road Initiative, investing in infrastructure and economic projects across Africa, Latin America, and Asia—buying influence while we burn bridges.

The Reality:

• China is filling the vacuum we’re leaving behind. The Belt and Road Initiative is securing China’s influence across the developing world, while we cut ties and retreat.

• Russia is gaining ground. By turning our back on Ukraine, we’re sending a message: U.S. security guarantees are unreliable. That will embolden Russia to push even further into its former Soviet sphere.

• Our allies are reconsidering their dependence on us. Countries that once trusted the U.S. for defense and economic stability are now looking for alternatives.

Much of America’s wealth and stability comes from our role as a global leader. If we give that up, we won’t just lose influence—we’ll lose the economic and security benefits that come with it. And once it’s gone, we won’t get it back.

8. Stripping Disaster Response Funding While Climate Disasters Worsen

As wildfires, hurricanes, and heatwaves intensify, you’d think the government would be bolstering emergency preparedness. Instead, they’re dismantling it.

The Reality:

• FEMA is being hollowed out—meaning fewer resources for rebuilding after natural disasters.

• The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) lost staff responsible for extreme weather forecasting, meaning we’re getting worse at predicting storms and floods.

• Climate funding has been slashed, ensuring that states are left on their own to handle rising sea levels, extreme heat, and wildfires.

Disasters are getting more expensive, but instead of preparing for them, we’re gutting the very agencies that help us recover.

The Common Thread— Burn It Down, Offer Fascism as the Fix

Looking at all of these policies together, a disturbing pattern emerges. This isn’t a set of random bad decisions—it’s a deliberate strategy to break the country.

Every move they make destabilizes something essential: the economy, public health, food supply, housing, global security, disaster response. Every move increases hardship, desperation, and division.

The results will be:
✅ More unemployment and economic instability.
✅ Higher prices for food, housing, and essential goods.
✅ A weaker, more vulnerable public health system.
✅ More global instability, leading to more refugees and migration crises.
✅ More radicalization against the U.S. abroad, increasing security threats.
✅ More climate disasters with fewer resources to respond.

This isn’t just reckless governance. This is controlled demolition.

And when the crisis reaches a boiling point, they will be standing there, ready to say:
“See? The system is broken. You need a strong leader to fix it.”

This playbook is old. We’ve seen it before.

1️⃣Destroy economic stability.
2️⃣Blame marginalized groups.
3️⃣Offer “emergency powers” to fix it.
💥Eliminate elections, rule indefinitely.

This is how democracies fall. This is how regimes consolidate power. And this is what we’re up against.

Because when people are desperate, they stop asking questions. They stop demanding accountability. They will accept any solution if it means food on the table, a job, and an illusion of stability.

This is why we cannot afford to be passive observers. Recognizing the pattern isn’t enough. We have to fight back before they can complete the setup.

The Next Step: Fighting Back in a Way That Works

The good news? People aren’t blind to this. They’re angry. They’re protesting. They’re looking for ways to fight back. That energy is real. It’s powerful. And it’s exactly what we need—because we cannot afford to sit back and watch this unfold.

But here’s the hard truth: protest alone isn’t enough.

You can be in the streets, shouting the truth at the top of your lungs—but if no one outside your bubble hears you, what changes? This isn’t the 1960s. We live in an era where media is fragmented, narratives are controlled, and most of America’s political discourse happens inside digital echo chambers.

The people who need to see the protests aren’t seeing them. And the ones who do? They’re getting a distorted version, fed to them by right-wing media, designed to reinforce their own delusions.

So yes, protesting is good. But it’s not enough.

If we want to actually fight back, we need to adapt. We need a strategy that doesn’t just make noise, but breaks through the disinformation machine and lands where it matters most.

Because if we don’t adapt now, we lose. That’s exactly what the next piece is about—how we fight smarter, not just louder.

Join the Fight, Amplify the Truth

Because silence is surrender. We never surrender. We are #TheRelentless.
