He weaponized boycotts to crash corporate stocks.

America's debt just hit $36.2 trillion.
That's $484,000 per child.
$260,000 per household.
And it's growing by $1 trillion every 100 days.
But the real crisis isn't the debt itself...
It's what happens when we can't pay the interest.

Everyone’s talking about tariffs. But here’s what they’re missing:

These are basic materials used to build everything from cars and planes to buildings and tools.
It’s like raising the price of flour and sugar for a baker.
Why this matters:
