What is Project 25?
Project 25 is the far right’s “how to” handbook on how to completely dismantle the United States government and install a fascist government in its stead. The growing blueprint has been in the works for 40 years. It is written by the uber conservative think tank, the Heritage Foundation, with input from 100 other far right organizations. It has been a multi million dollar effort with big donors like the Koch brothers funding it. The actual title of the book is, “ The 2025 Presidential Transition Project,” Project 2025 for short. It weighs 7 pounds, is 920 pages long, and mentions Trump 312 times.
The disruption of the government doesn’t start in 2025, it’s supposed to be finished in 2025 with the election of Trump who will finish implementing the rest of the Heritage Foundation’s plan. They have been very patient and strategic. The Heritage Foundation presents their plan every time a new Republican president is elected. Past presidents have treated the plan as suggestive but not Trump. They hit the jackpot with Trump. He’s so lazy and stupid they just told him what to do and he did it. Way over 50% of what they want accomplished was accomplished by Trump. Electing him a second time means they’ll get to finish what’s left. Once that happens, it’s all over for the Great American Experiment. The USA will be no more.
The plan is to hand Trump the 180 day playbook on January 20, 2025, Inauguration Day. Since the Supreme Court has just given the president the powers of a king, Trump will be able to step into the role of dictator on day 1 and start destroying the infrastructure of the government immediately. The courts won’t be able to check him because he’ll be more powerful than any court, even the Supreme Court. A whole new list of initiatives, executive orders, and policies will be put into place right away.
What new initiatives, executive orders and policies? Plans to reclassify government workers so they can be fired at any time by the president without cause so that all career civil servants who are experts in their field and have served under both Republican and Democratic administrations can be pushed out and replaced by Trump loyalists who will do what they’re told. Trump’s new government will be able to deconstruct the administrative state by blowing up bureaucracies, leaving Americans without government protections and services. All of the expertise and institutional knowledge that thousands in the government have been contributing for decades and even centuries will be destroyed. Expanded presidential powers mean that Trump can shrink the executive branch so much that it could be just him and a few diabolical side kicks who will stroke and flatter Trump so he’ll do what they tell him to without him knowing it. A new army that weaponizes conservatives to do battle against the “deep state” will be formed. Members of this new army will reside within and outside of the government. The Christian religion and Christian god will take over, destroying the principle of separation of Church and state. The Christian church and state will be one, just like Islam is in Saudi Arabia.
Now that they’re talking about Project 25 over on TikTok, and Black performers like Taraji P. Henson told a huge Black audience at the BET Awards to read up on it and get current on what the Republicans are up to, Trump is trying to distance himself from Project 2025, claiming he has “no idea who is behind it.” Um, Project 25 was written and pushed through by Trump’s staffers in his first year. The playbook is written by more than 20 officials Trump appointed in his first term. Half of it has already been implemented. Many of Trump’s inner circle are involved in this and will be part of the implementation of it on the first day if he’s elected. They will fill the government with Trump loyalists at every level, all while telling Trump how great he is so he’ll stay pacified so they can carry their plan forward. Some new staffers will have the job of handling and managing Trump so he stays in line and some new staffers (10,000 staffers have already been groomed and trained by Heritage foundation and will be recommend to serve King Trump on day one) will be working on the Heritage Foundation’s agenda. What is their agenda?
· Pack Supreme Court with far right judges
· Ban abortion and birth control
· Tax cuts for major corporations and the 1% while increasing taxes on the rest
· Eliminate regulations for big business and oil
· Eliminate unions and worker protections
· Ban books and curriculum about slavery
· Promote death penalty
· Condemn single mothers and promote the traditional family
· Ban African American and gender studies in all schools
· Use public funds to pay for private religious schools
· Encourage Christian indoctrination through public schools
· Dismantle civil rights and DEI protections in all levels of government
· Eliminate climate protections
· Eliminate no fault divorce
· Since the ice caps are melting, drill for oil in the Antarctic
· Raise retirement age
· Eliminate Social Security and Medicare for the elderly and disabled
. End the Affordable Care Act
· Eliminate LGBTQ community
. Make gay marriage illegal
· Dismantle FBI and Homeland Security
· Use military to break up protests
· Eliminate Head Start and free school lunch programs
· Deport immigrants or put them in camps. Get rid of birth right citizenship
· Ban Muslims from entering country
· Dismantle FDA, EPA, NOAA and more
· Eliminate Department of Education
People think there is no way that Project 2025 can really happen but they have already accomplished a lot of it. The top half of the agenda has already been achieved. A second Trump term would finish the rest.
What will happen if Trump is elected and the Republican manifesto is achieved? Democracy will be destroyed. The People will not longer have a say in how they’ll be governed. If you speak out against the government you will be jailed or killed. All immigrants, gay people, pregnant people, and anybody who isn’t Christian will be without rights.
There is something in Project 25 that hurts every family and every community, not to mention democracy itself and once our freedoms are gone that’s it. We can’t vote the fascists out.
Trump may say he doesn’t know anything about Project 25 now, but he’s on record for saying that any American who opposes him should “be careful” what they say because his Project 2025 agenda will send the Justice Department after them if he wins. Republicans say this is a new revolution. There will be no bloodshed unless the left refuses to cooperate.
Now that we have your attention, show up to vote on November 5 and vote for Biden no matter what you think about him because that vote is not just for Biden, it’s for keeping everybody in place that has been part his historical success. Vote Democrat down ticket and never, ever vote for a Republican for the rest of your life.
