It makes me sick to see what ppl are doing to end our democracy. It’s sickening.

Look at this guy, Russell Vought. He's 48 and looks about 67. That's often the case when evil is rotting someone from within.

But the way the mainstream media report on DT as if everything is normal. That's the problem..

We won’t put this down in one election. It will take decades. People wake up and save our country.

[tcandrews]

Of course he knows about it and is excited about the control it would give him.

Vote Blue for Freedom and Safety and Sanity!

The next person to watch is Glen Youngkin in Virginia. He's very much a wolf in sheep's clothing. GOP will put him up in 2028. We also need term limits for the Supreme Court and Congress. This is insane.

Okay America, if you won't believe them when they show you or when they put it in writing (900 pages), will you believe them when they tell you on video?

The other thing to always remember - if you stand by and watch them take away any groups rights, no matter how small a segment of society - remember from history they will eventually come for yours as well. Everyone is at risk.

"We are a coalition of more than 110 conservative groups advocating policy and personnel recommendations for the next conservative president, " a Project 2025 spokesperson previously said in a statement to Newsweek.

Vought just got played. What kind of person gets involved with Project 2025, let alone becomes a key architect. A person who cares only for their selfish objectives and is devoid of any decency.

I remember talking to a friend of mine about Project 2025 and I said, " this is what "they" want us to know. I want to know about the project they ARE NOT talking about"! I then told him that Project 2025 was ALREADY in motion in the very states Joy mentioned!

Our economy struggling with uncertainties, housing issues, foreclosures, global fluctuations, and pandemic aftermath, causing instability. Rising inflation, sluggish growth, and trade disruptions need urgent attention from all sectors to restore stability and stimulate growth.

Bruh these type of "Republicans" are some strange individuals. You know if you were watching a movie they would be the villain.

[deannejennings]

I am thankful that this is being discovered and shared. Vote blue!

Don't forget what this program would do LGBTQ!
Please remind our community how terrifying this activity would be to MANY communities who do not align with white Christian dogma of hatred in white nationalism.

The entire undercover video should be put up on YouTube, along with all the Project 2025 training videos.

In 2022, DonorsTrust alone funneled more than $16.5 million to organizations on Project 2025’s advisory board, according to the group’s 990 tax filing. One of those groups, the Teneo Network — described as a “talent pipeline” for the conservative movement spanning business, media, finance, entertainment and politics — received one of the highest distributions, more than $3 million.

The $16.5 million in donations represented a small increase from one year prior, when groups that are now part of the Project 2025 advisory board received about $15 million collectively from DonorsTrust in the 2021 financial year. Project 2025 was started in 2022 after the arrival of Heritage Foundation president Kevin Roberts.

Bunch of rich people who watched the haidmaids’s tale and took it to heart.
