Jackson County, Tennessee at the forefront of Project 2025 Takeover

Interesting video. A group of White Christian Nationalists are trying to buy up land in this rural community for their own Gilead. This is a local news station's report.

They would probably be at each other's throats in a few days, being so tolerant and all.

If they get control in one town, they're going to want control EVERYWHERE. And, they'll get help from Federal Talibangelicals and Trump to do it.

No alternative to their way can be allowed to exist or be seen. It might give the uppity people ideas.

This is, of course, just the beginning. They want to buy up the properties, move in their stooges, take over any commerce, run the locals who might resist out of their homes, and then they have the "voters" to make their doctrine all legal and good.

It literally IS textbook Gilead.

How in the hell can people be so goddamn stupid!!!!!
