13. PROJECT 2025's Assault on Americans (and just about everyone ELSE)

The Plan To Seize Power by Gutting America’s System of Checks and Balances - Center for American Progress

Many of the proposals in Project 2025 are sweeping and would eliminate fundamental personal freedoms while cutting the take-home pay of millions of Americans. Unsurprisingly, Project 2025’s policies to increase taxes on the middle class, allow corporations to stop paying workers overtime, implement a national abortion ban, and raise the retirement age for Social Security are wildly unpopular.

That is why the most striking aspect of Project 2025 is a new strategy to gut the system of checks and balances that has long protected Americans’ personal freedoms.

This strategy would concentrate power in the hands of the president—and set in motion a plan to flood the civil service with far-right loyalists to seize control of independent agencies.

It is a playbook written for an authoritarian administration. This new vision would make it even harder for the American people to have a say in their government or oppose policies they disagree with.

Wait until 2025: Former Trump official makes chilling promise at far-right conference - Raw Story

One senior-level official from Donald Trump's administration just made an ominous threat to the immigrant community during a recent gathering of far-right political activists.

Semafor reporter Dave Weigel reported that during the National Conservatism conference (also known as "NatCon&quot in Washington, D.C., several of the speakers eagerly expressed how they would help [Trump] accomplish his goal of pursuing vengeance against his political opponents if elected to a second term.

During one panel, Tom Homan – who was director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Trump's Department of Homeland Security – suggested he was already working behind the scenes to make Trump's promise to deport millions of immigrants as draconian as possible.

" Trump comes back in January, I’ll be on his heels coming back, and I will run the biggest deportation force this country has ever seen,” Homan said. “They ain’t seen s— yet. Wait until 2025.”
