(Natural News)—In a scathing analysis, renowned commentator Mike Adams has laid bare the alarming inadequacies of the U.S. power grid, which he argues are severely hampering the nation’s ability to compete in the global AI race. According to Adams, the U.S. is already 15 years behind China in terms of aggregate energy production, and the gap is only widening.
The Energy Deficit
Adams points out that China produces over 10,000 terawatt hours of electricity annually, while the U.S. generates less than half that amount. This significant disparity in energy production is a critical bottleneck for the U.S. in the race to develop and deploy advanced AI models. “To be competitive with China in the AI race, the U.S. would need to double, triple, or even quadruple its energy production in just a few years,” Adams asserts. “And that’s already too late.”
The Unlikely Infrastructure Build
The U.S. power grid is already maxed out in some areas, and the infrastructure required to catch up is monumental. Adams explains that the necessary power plants and grid enhancements would need to have been started a decade ago. “We would have had to start building emergency power plants in 2010 to have a chance today,” he says. “That did not happen, and now it’s too late.”
The White House Blueprint: A “Clown Show”
Adams criticizes the recent White House AI report, titled “Winning the Race, America’s AI Action Plan,” as a “clown show of incompetence and doublespeak.” The report, he contends, fails to sound the red alert on the urgent need to drastically increase energy production. “They’re talking about silly things like stopping blackouts, while the real issue is that we need to double or triple our total energy production,” Adams states. “The blueprints issued by the White House are written by morons who don’t understand the real challenges.”
The Dollar’s Decline and the Rise of BRICS
Adams also addresses the broader economic landscape, contending that Trump’s efforts to maintain the dollar’s global dominance are futile. “The dollar is backed by nothing, while BRICS nations are backing their settlement system with gold and other commodities,” he says. “The dollar is going to lose this global currency war. BRICS-backed currency will emerge as the new global reserve currency, marking the end of the U.S.’s financial hegemony.”
The Global Economic Shift
Adams predicts that the dollar’s collapse is inevitable, and the BRICS-backed currency will rise to prominence. “Trump’s living in a fantasy movie of his own making,” Adams says. “He thinks he can beat BRICS with the dollar, but the reality is that the U.S. over the last several years has proven to every nation in the world that they better not use the dollar as their reserve currency. The world is tired of the U.S. using sanctions and economic threats to bully other nations.”
The Road Ahead
For the U.S. to remain competitive in the global AI race and maintain economic stability, a seismic shift in policy and infrastructure is required. However, Adams remains skeptical. “The political and economic landscape makes such an infrastructure build highly unlikely,” he concludes. “The U.S. is already losing the AI race, and the consequences for national security and economic dominance are dire.”
As the world watches, the U.S. faces a critical juncture. The next few years will reveal whether the nation can rise to the challenge or if it will cede its position as a global leader in technology and finance.

Safeguarding Your American Dream: Discover the Power of America First Healthcare
In today’s economy, healthcare costs remain one of the biggest threats to financial stability and family security. Americans work hard to build a better life, yet rising medical expenses can quickly erode savings, force tough trade-offs, and even push families toward debt or bankruptcy. Medical bills continue to rank as the leading cause of personal bankruptcy in the United States, with millions facing underinsurance or unexpected out-of-pocket burdens that no one plans for. Many turn to government-run marketplace plans under the Affordable Care Act, hoping for relief, only to discover that what appears affordable on paper often delivers higher long-term costs, limited real protection, and coverage that may not align with personal values or family needs.
America First Healthcare stands out as a private insurance agency dedicated to helping conservatives and families secure better coverage and better rates through customized, values-aligned options. By conducting free insurance reviews, the agency uncovers hidden gaps in existing policies and connects clients with private alternatives that emphasize personal responsibility, small-government principles, and genuine affordability—often delivering up to 20% savings while providing stronger protection for the American Dream.
The allure of marketplace plans is easy to understand: open enrollment periods, premium tax credits for many households, and the promise of “comprehensive” benefits mandated by law. Yet recent data reveals a different reality, especially after the expiration of enhanced premium subsidies at the end of 2025. Enrollment for 2026 dropped by more than one million people compared to the prior year, with many shifting to lower-tier bronze plans to keep monthly premiums manageable.
These plans feature significantly higher deductibles—averaging around $7,500 nationally—and greater cost-sharing requirements. Families who once paid modest amounts after subsidies now face average premium increases of $65 or more per month, even as they accept plans that leave them responsible for thousands in upfront costs before meaningful coverage kicks in.
High deductibles create a dangerous barrier to care. Studies show that people in such plans are less likely to seek timely treatment for chronic conditions, attend preventive screenings, or fill necessary prescriptions. A seemingly minor illness or injury can balloon into major expenses when patients delay care until problems worsen. For a family of four, a single hospitalization, cancer diagnosis, or unexpected surgery can easily exceed the deductible, triggering coinsurance and out-of-pocket maximums that still leave substantial bills. One recent analysis noted that some proposed changes could push family deductibles toward $31,000 in future years, further exposing households to financial risk.
Beyond the numbers, marketplace plans often carry structural limitations. Coverage for certain critical services may include waiting periods or narrower networks that restrict access to preferred doctors and specialists. Preventive care is required to be covered without cost-sharing, but everything else—lab work, imaging, specialist visits, or ongoing treatment—typically waits until the deductible is met. This reactive model contrasts sharply with the proactive, holistic approach many families prefer, especially those focused on wellness, early intervention, and maintaining health to enjoy life rather than merely reacting to illness.
Values alignment represents another growing concern. Government-influenced plans operate within a framework shaped by federal mandates and political priorities that may not reflect conservative principles of limited government, personal freedom, and ethical stewardship. Families who want to direct their healthcare dollars toward providers and benefits that honor traditional values sometimes find marketplace options feel misaligned, forcing a compromise between affordability and conviction.
Private alternatives, by contrast, offer year-round flexibility without the restrictions of open enrollment windows. Independent agents can shop across a wider range of carriers to design plans tailored to specific family needs—whether that means lower deductibles for frequent medical users, broader provider networks, or add-ons that support wellness and preventive services from day one. Clients frequently report more stable premiums that do not automatically escalate each year, along with genuine cost savings once the full picture of deductibles, copays, and coverage depth is considered.
Take the experience of real families who made the switch. Amanda C. shared that her new plan felt “way better” than what she had through the marketplace. Johnny Y. noted his previous coverage kept increasing annually until he found a more stable private option. Sofia S. expressed delight with her plan and began recommending it to others. These stories echo a common theme: when families move beyond one-size-fits-all government marketplaces, they often discover customized protection that better safeguards both health and finances.
Founder Jordan Sarmiento’s own journey underscores the stakes. In 2021, a six-day hospitalization generated a $95,000 bill. Under a well-structured private “Conservative Care Coverage” plan, his out-of-pocket responsibility would have been just $500. That stark difference illustrates how thoughtful planning and private options can prevent a medical event from becoming a financial catastrophe.
Practical steps exist for anyone questioning their current coverage. Start with a no-obligation review of your existing policy to identify gaps—high deductibles, limited critical-care benefits, or escalating premiums. Compare total projected costs (premiums plus potential out-of-pocket expenses) rather than monthly premiums alone. Consider family health history, anticipated needs, and lifestyle priorities. Private agencies can present side-by-side options that include stronger wellness incentives, broader access, and plans built on shared values of self-reliance and freedom.
In an era when healthcare inflation continues to outpace general cost-of-living increases, relying solely on marketplace solutions carries growing risk. Families who proactively explore private alternatives frequently achieve meaningful savings while gaining peace of mind that their coverage truly works when needed most.
America First Healthcare makes this exploration straightforward through its free review process. Families and individuals receive personalized guidance to close coverage holes, reduce unnecessary expenses, and secure plans that align with conservative principles—protecting wallets, health, and the American Dream without government overreach. Many who complete a review discover they can enjoy better benefits for less, often saving up to 20% while gaining the customization and stability that marketplace plans struggle to deliver.
Ultimately, protecting your family’s future requires looking beyond the marketing of “affordable” government options. By understanding the long-term costs hidden in high deductibles, shifting coverage tiers, and values mismatches, Americans can make empowered choices. Private, values-driven insurance offers a smarter path—one that rewards diligence, supports wellness, and delivers real security. For those ready to move beyond the limitations of traditional marketplace plans, a simple review can reveal options designed to serve families, not bureaucracies. The American Dream thrives when individuals and families retain control over their healthcare decisions, and thoughtful private coverage plays a vital role in making that possible.
Well done humans. You have taken a great evolutionary leap by abandoning human interaction and allowing yourself to bond with soulless machines. Kudos!
