Former President Trump is distancing himself from a controversial conservative plan called Project 2025. But what is this project? Here is what we know.

If former Republican President Donald Trump wins the presidency in November, conservative groups aim to implement a wide-ranging plan to dismantle federal government agencies.

A nearly 1,000-page handbook from conservative think tank The Heritage Foundation, and what they say is a “broad coalition” of other organizations, offers details on how to implement “Project 2025.”

Authors of Project 2025 say it’s a guide on what the next president needs to do so they can undo the “damage” to America they claim has been caused by liberal politicians. Critics, though, say Project 2025 is extremist, “authoritarian” and even dystopian.

Six of his former Cabinet secretaries helped write or collaborated on the 900-page playbook for a second Trump term published by the Heritage Foundation. Four individuals Trump nominated as ambassadors were also involved, along with several enforcers of his controversial immigration crackdown. And about 20 pages are credited to his first deputy chief of staff.

In fact, at least 140 people who worked in the Trump administration had a hand in Project 2025, a CNN review found, including more than half of the people listed as authors, editors and contributors to “Mandate for Leadership, ” the project’s extensive manifesto for overhauling the executive branch.

Dozens more who staffed Trump’s government hold positions with conservative groups advising Project 2025, including his former chief of staff Mark Meadows and longtime adviser Stephen Miller. These groups also include several lawyers deeply involved in Trump’s attempts to remain in power, such as his impeachment attorney Jay Sekulow and two of the legal architects of his failed bid to overturn the 2020 presidential election, Cleta Mitchell and John Eastman

I'm not understanding how being normal is considered 'radical" now. You know what's radical? Is in the blink of an eye, everyone forgot how to define what a woman is. That's radical.

Whoever came up with this document might have hurt someone's chances of enacting the less insane parts of it.

Project 2025 is easier to understand in the original German.

"The main Project 2025 document, Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise, outlines four main aims: restoring the family as the centerpiece of American life; dismantling the administrative state; defending the nation's sovereignty and borders; and securing God-given individual rights to live freely."

You lose all credibility when Chris Cuomo shows his face.

sounds like it removes the democrat tyrant on free speach. I hope it gets rid of the green new deal.

"I know nothing about Project 2025. I have no idea who is behind it, " Trump said earlier this month. "I disagree with some of the things they’re saying and some of the things they’re saying are absolutely ridiculous and abysmal. Anything they do, I wish them luck, but I have nothing to do with them."

I almost subscribed but then Cuomo came on telling me to do so

[wjmbolv]

So no information, no facts just a propaganda hit job from a Democrat perspective.

[dr.alaricshawncastleberry]

Sounds to me like it should have been implemented in 2016!
