Project 2025: It's Worse Than You Think. FAR Worse

Project 2025 is an Attack on Black People - The Observer

While the African American community is not mentioned explicitly (except for the mandate to eliminate affirmative action and diversity, equity and inclusion efforts), the policies that Project 2025 are aligned with conservative policy. Project 2025 would cut spending in education, housing assistance, and other areas where African Americans and others frequently benefit. The project would also reduce government regulation, especially in labor markets. Project 2025 is a comprehensive attack on contemporary government organization, and it also has a component that is actively seeking the most conservative people to populate a new Republican administration.

Crafted by the Heritage Foundation, the 900-page book comprehensively addresses every agency that the President can influence, with suggestions for the agencies that should be eliminated or altered. It is an attack on our merit-based civil service system, suggesting that presidential appointees should replace long-term civil servants.

The plan would weaken or eliminate the Department of Education, sending some federal funds, especially Title I funds that are targeted toward low-income students, back to the states. While President Biden has attempted student debt relief, the next President would eliminate those efforts. Other discretionary funds that the Secretary of Education can grant will also be cut under Project 2025.

Project 2025 reeks of Christian conservatism, describing our nation as one with “Judeo-Christian values”. From that perspective, the agenda emphasizes the “traditional family”, perhaps excluding the majority of the population. It would also impose work requirements on Medicaid, but where would those affected work, and how much would they be paid? The Project 2025 document would shred the safety net, leaving the poor to fend for themselves, ignoring employment discrimination and the structural inequities that result in the poverty that so many people experience.

Trump has a plan to destroy democracy. Why haven’t people heard of it? - Dailykos

While draining public funds through corporate tax cuts and exploiting the country’s surfeit of natural resources is still the GOP’s paramount goal, the opportunity to transform the tools of government into a weapon to attack their political opponents now appears irresistible...

So they’ve created “Project 2025,” a manifesto supported by 100 right-leaning organizations that satisfies those aims while enriching themselves in the process.

That 920-page tome, prepared by the Heritage Foundation, is a blueprint of right-wing grievances geared toward dismantling or coopting every aspect of the federal government and trampling over the rights of everyone they despise in the process. That includes women, people of color, the LGBTQ+ community, and just about anyone opposing their white supremacist and Christian nationalist agenda.

2. There was never any lack of concern in my thinking...

..about how bad it would be if Trump and MAGA win control of the White House and Congress. And that's with or without Project 2025.

3. Thanks for the response. Same here.

Project 2025 only gives Trump the roadmap for what he'd always intended ALL ALONG.

There are new articles everyday written by those obviously ASTOUNDED as to what they are PLANNING.

Some in America are finally waking up to what it entails. But not nearly enough.
