@cdarwin@c.imThe first year of Donald Trump’s second term in office was marked by the rapid implementation of his far-right program.
From ICE to DOGE,
from anti-DEI to anti-antifa,
and from bombing boats to $400 million bribes,
Trump’s regime has turned out even more extreme than feared after he was elected to a second term in November 2024.
His words and actions as president have been covered extensively over the past year,
as have those of a number of internal advise…

@buercher@tooting.chGross, stark und erst noch viel zu grosszügig, das sind die USA und ihre Wirtschaft – wenn es nach dem Präsidenten geht. In Tat und Wahrheit zahlen wir ihre Defizite und all die Rekorde an der Wall Street werden weggefressen vom Wertzerfall des Dollars.
Wer in der Schweiz 100 Franken anlegte, der hat heute 111. Wer dasselbe in den USA tat, hat heute nur gerade 102.
Rechnet man das BIP in Franken, so schrumpfte die US-Wirtschaft im Vergleich zu 2024 um über 9 Prozent.

It went up 10.5% in 2024 and 20.7% in 2025 alone.
