I suppose that depends on what one means by 'freedom', and I'd probably word it that entrenched power structures are most motivated by remaining entrenched. The rest is window dressing.

Yeah, it's six of one, half-dozen of another. Remaining entrenched equates to retaining control. Simply asserting the gov't's right to make such decisions in itself means that they are arguing for the gov't retention of control of very personal decisions.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

How can Trump claim that the country is in a dire economic state where most people can't afford food and at the same time he expects from those same people to buy from him expensive watches, fake dollar bills, coins with his face, models of his airplane, crypto coins, expensive NFTs with his images, special expensive editions of Melania's book, stocks of his fake company, and other expensive stuff he is selling?

His target market (for votes and grift) is relatively well off. He knows that, or whoever manages his merch and campaigns does. The idea that the us is in dire economic straights is no more complicated than the observation that brown people have things that ought to belong to whites, and specifically white trump supporters, aka real americans.
If they could get rid of the rest of us unpersons, they'd be really rich. Not just pretend rich in trailer built mcmansions. They'd get more school, and more hospital, and more job, and most importantly.... more respect.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
The Washington Post just humiliated Trump.

Trump is trying to deceive the folks in the swing state of North Carolina regarding the federal response to Hurricane Helene. It may backfire on him.
