‘America Is Crumbling': Man Bats For Diversifying Life Abroad In Viral Video
The man expressed his concern over the way things are unfolding in the US and advised others to start preparing for an uncertain future.
A video shared by an American man named Adam is gaining widespread attention for its strong message about the state of the US. In the video, Adam shared his concerns about what he believes is a visible decline in the country and advises others to start preparing for an uncertain future.
In the clip posted on Instagram, Adam is seen delivering his message with a text overlay that reads: 'America is crumbling before our eyes. You need to diversify: Remote income, Second residency, New passport and International banking."
A Cautionary Message
Alongside the video, Adam also wrote a detailed caption. He expressed his concern over the way things are unfolding in the country and shared why he believes it is important to act now. 'The USA seems to be falling apart. You need to diversify your life instead of depending on America for everything. There are poor countries today that were great just 100 years ago. You'd be naive to think that it could never happen to the US. You need to diversify your life to protect yourself and your family. You're in the right place."
Here Is How Internet Reacted
The video has triggered strong reactions across social media. Some users agreed with Adam's views while others shared their own perspectives on the current situation in US.
One user commented, 'India gets 130 billion dollars every year from US by Indians working."
Another person added, 'I don't think people realize that the damage has been done. Even if everything in the US somehow went 'back to normal' tomorrow, the trust has been lost. Nobody is going to trust that it doesn't happen all over again in the next election cycle."
The comment section also featured some sarcasm and humour. 'MAGA thinks everything is great," someone wrote while a person added, 'You forgot international wifey bro."
More People Are Speaking Up
What Adam shared is not a standalone concern. A recent Guardian report shows that more people across US are beginning to voice similar anxieties about their future. In a poll conducted by The Guardian, six in ten Americans said the economy had disrupted at least one major life goal whether that is owning a home, starting a family or simply feeling secure.
Martha Knight, a resident of Louisville, Kentucky, shared that the idea of having kids is now deeply tied to financial concerns. Soaring housing prices in the city have made homeownership feel impossible.
For Danielle, a 35-year-old based in Austin, Texas, the uncertainty has shaped her choices. 'I love the community I built here, but as a queer person, I've been hesitant to buy a home and even have kids due to rigid abortion bans and economic instability," she told The Guardian. The country she once felt secure in now feels unfamiliar, calling 'The American Dream is a farce."

Who is Vinay Prasad? US FDA's top regulator exits agency after controversy over Sarepta gene therapy
Dr. Vinay Prasad, a top regulator at the US Food and Drug Administration, has resigned in less than three months in the job following a controversy over the handling of Sarepta Therapeutics Inc.'s gene therapy. 'Dr. Prasad did not want to be a distraction to the great work of the FDA in the Trump administration and has decided to return to California and spend more time with his family,' a report by CNN quoted a spokesperson for the US Department of Health and Human Services. In May, Prasad, a hematologist and oncologist was appointed head of the FDA's Centre for Biologics Evaluation and Research, granting him authority over vaccines and biological medicines. Subsequently, he was also appointed the FDA's chief medical and scientific officer. Similar to several Trump administration health appointees, Prasad had been a vocal critic of the government's response and vaccine policies during the COVID-19 pandemic. The report, citing people aware of the development, said Prasad resigned amid pressure from the White House. Additionally, Laura Loomer, a right-wing activist known to have close ties with Donald Trump, consistently criticised Prasad. She publicly criticised him for days on her website and social media, calling him a 'progressive leftist saboteur' who was 'undermining President Trump's FDA.' Loomer called out Prasad's previous social media posts and podcast episodes, where she claimed that he supported liberal politicians and expressed 'disdain' for Trump. However, FDA Commissioner Dr. Marty Makary defended Prasad just days ago. In an interview with Politico, Makary said Prasad is an 'impeccable scientist … one of the greatest scientific minds of our generation.' 'We thank him for his service and the many important reforms he was able to achieve in his time at FDA,' the spokesperson for HHS said. Prasad took on his role at the FDA following years of outspoken criticism of certain drug approvals by the agency. Notably, he condemned the approval of Sarepta's Duchenne muscular dystrophy drug, Elevidys, asserting that there was insufficient evidence to demonstrate it effectively slowed or reversed symptoms of this rare and deadly genetic condition. This month, the FDA asked Sarepta to stop shipments of the drug after a reported death of a young patient in Brazil. Just one day before Prasad's departure, the agency unexpectedly reversed its decision and allowed Sarepta to continue shipments for certain patients. Prasad faced criticism from former officials and vaccine experts after May's internal memos showed he overruled FDA scientists on two new Covid-19 vaccine versions. The then-CDER director criticised the broad use of these vaccines; ultimately, the FDA approved them for older and immunocompromised individuals but did not recommend them for younger Americans without underlying health conditions.

PM Modi not able to say 'Trump is lying' as US President will then lay bare truth: Rahul Gandhi
NEW DELHI: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday said Prime Minister Narendra Modi cannot state that US President Donald Trump is lying about his role in bringing about a ceasefire between India and Pakistan as if he does so, the American leader will lay bare the truth. Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra said Prime Minister Modi should state clearly in Parliament that the US president is lying. The remarks by the Gandhi siblings came after Trump repeated his claim about playing a role in bringing about a ceasefire between India and Pakistan. Asked about Trump's latest remarks repeating his claims and that India is preparing to face higher US tariffs between 20 and 25 per cent, Gandhi said, "It is obvious, the prime minister has not said that Trump is lying. It is obvious what has happened. Everyone knows, he is not able to say it. That is the reality." "If the prime minister says it, then he (Trump) will say openly and will lay bear the truth so that is why the PM is not able to say anything," the Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha said. Gandhi said Trump is making the remarks to put pressure on the Indian government for the trade deal. "Now, you see what kind of trade deal happens," he told reporters in the Parliament House complex. Asked about Trump repeating his claims, Priyanka Gandhi said, "If you hear the words used by the prime minister and the external affairs minister carefully, they are vague. They should say it directly. Rahul ji said yesterday also, he (Modi) should say that the US president is lying. He should say it in Parliament."
