Katie Couric: Project 2025 Is Real. And It's Happening Now.

Project 2025. Maybe you’ve heard whispers about it. Maybe you’ve rolled your eyes. But David A. Graham read the whole thing—and he sat down with Katie to break down why this isn’t just rhetoric – it’s a roadmap already in motion. From privatizing weather data to rewinding civil rights gains, this playbook for Trump 2.0 is more extreme—and more possible—than you might think. In this episode, Graham walks us through the wildest parts of the plan, the men behind it, and why his book The Project might just be the most important one you read this year.

We have A LOT of explaining to do, and it’s going to take all of us.

And by explaining I don’t mean apologizing. I mean counteracting ignorance and disinformation.

She has been speaking out for a while. If she wants to create more content to spread awareness, great.

but for the corporate media at large for not reporting this last year when it would have mattered.
