Republicans admit they plan to implement Project 2025
Summary
Following Donald Trump’s election victory, Republicans are now openly embracing Project 2025, a policy agenda from The Heritage Foundation that outlines sweeping conservative reforms.
Despite Trump’s attempts to distance himself from the project during his campaign due to its extreme proposals—including expanded executive powers, a national abortion ban, stricter contraception limits, harsh immigration policies, and the elimination of agencies like the Department of Education—his allies quickly began celebrating its implementation.
Former Trump adviser Steve Bannon and commentator Matt Walsh publicly affirmed the agenda, signaling the GOP's commitment to enacting these controversial policies in Trump’s second term.

You had to live inside your own asshole to not know this was always the plan
auto-gay
Sounds like a really bad transformers opponent.
You just described like 38% of voters
52%
I'm assuming some of those voters believed project 2025 was real and very much supported it.
The majority I know when voted R, are totally for it. But always see themselves as exceptions or think they won't be effected.
There's plenty that thought he wouldn't do it.
Yup, I've looked into it. Seems they were all born yesterday.
Trying to envision that physically but seems like a recursive paradox. If you lived inside your own asshole then your asshole would be in your asshole, etc. You need 4 dimensional vector space to solve it.
My mom, who voted tRump and is on public assistance, is gonna be very sad and not understand why.
Don't worry she'll find a way to blame Obama
Barack Obiden Harris is about to have a lot of things blamed on him/her
to which they'll even blame for that "him/her" pronoun they'll use.
Haha I was honestly debating what to use there.
Nobody would ever fall for that... *Glances at Texas
Once she gets her benefits slashed be sure to talk about how great the Republicans are and isn't she glad she got what she wanted with her vote? Thank goodness trump got rid of that pesky public assistance, that was costing the rich real money.
I plan on reminding every family member, at every opportunity, when they complain about some benefit they've lost, "tough shit, you specifically voted for this"
"but he's hurting the wrong people, tell him that, he must not know it!"
Who’ve thought that a leopard would be a leopard and do leopard things?
"the face-eating-leopards aren't supposed to eat my face!"
"I accidentally got caught in the net, but I'll make that sacrifice so more of the other gets caught.'
Time to find her bootstraps
If the leopards haven't eaten her face already.
Good. She sounds horrible
She is/was . She is the type of person to smoke with the windows up around her asmatic child and have 3 abortions and be desperate to vote for other woman to also not have that choice
Did anyone ACTUALLY believe they didn't?
I've been listening to interviews and most people think Trump won't do what he says he will, much less something that he says he won't. It's unbelievable.
Trump NEVER lies about what he wants to do. He always lies about his accomplishments.
Bs, he always lies. Him and Pence set out to destroy Roe v Wade, not because he wanted to, but because he thought it would get him a base of people who will not change their mind no matter how many people it hurts. He wants followers that will stab their family members to death to support his cause, which he doesn't support, he just needs blind loyalty.
Trump I guarantee you wanted abortion legal for his life, the guy frolicked around children beauty shows and flaunted it as if it was good. Epstein ties up the wazoo. Grab them by the pussy, they don't mind. He wants immigrants to be able to come here, or his wife or his new friend Musk who defined himself as an illegal recently wouldn't be here. It is fascism to the core. It's shut the fuck up and do what I say and nothing else, even if you don't agree and people you care about get hurt.
Quite frankly, it's terrorism by definition.
Any conservative issues that are motivated primarily by religion, such as abortion, Trump doesn't give a fuck about. He'll just sign whatever they put in front of him. Things stemming primarily from racism or misogyny, though, he's all for.
https://lemmy.world/post/21703764
Look at all of the dumb fucking liberals on Lemmy huffing copium.
The Republic has fallen, and the liberals won't even try to stop it. At least the fucking Roman Senate killed Caesar.
a) wind up on a list
b) don't wind up on a list
I'm not saying anyone should be killed, but I do believe saying such would get you put on a list in this country moving forward. I can tell you what list it is too. They will label it ANTIFA, and they already listed that group as terrorists. It isn't hard to understand why people in a country riddled with threats wouldn't speak out publicly in at such a time
On a side note to get ahead of flack, yes I know that was a group in Germany that opposed fhe NAZI party. There were no official groups in the U.S., but still it managed to wind up on our terrorist list after Trump's wild accusations about January 6th, who he now claims are the opposite. His fans... Who he supposedly wants to pardon. Not mentioning that they did every illegal act they were convicted of.
If you weren't already on a list you're part of the problem.
Have you ever been arrested for being on a list, because I'd like to walk through that with you.
Edit: Nevermind, waste of time
Yes, you people are.
? You were describing your experiences, what are you talking about?
Edit: you see how someone asked you a question and you created a "people" when they were asking a simple question, that's how I know you are easy to accept defining mass groups of people into groups with no conclusive information. Like racisism and sexism. You shoveled your own shit there
Sadly yes, I told many people about it and they all said "Trump's not going for it, he rejected it, that's just fear mongering"
Bastards
Every person that said " they just want abortion rights to be up to the states," was either ignorant, or an idiot. Unfortunately it doesn't matter anymore, they fell into the I support fucking women's rights category.
Same I know first time Trump voters who believed him when he said he distanced himself from project 2025. I don't know why anyone would believe him when most of the shit he says is a lie. The only true things he's said are that he wants to be a dictator and punish his enemies.
One of my family members actually said that they wouldn't vote for P25. I told them it was a platform, not an item on a ballot... confused looks.
"it's like 'the gay agenda'"
Yes, my MAGA family members bought Trump's line of "I don't know who is involved in that".
They are not only lying to you, they are lying to themselves.
Factcheck and similar ones always claimed that Trump supporting project 2025 was Fake or needs context
I have a feeling someone paid good money for Snopes and similar sites. Or have some kompromat on rheir editors.
It's because he maintained plausible deniability, no bribes or kompromat necessary. Fact checkers couldn't definitively say he supported project 25 because he feigned ignorance.
My aunt :|
You mean they didn't write a 900 page manifesto for the lulz?
My understanding is it was written by an individual or individuals, then passed around and got approval from other influential people before being declared the plan.
That's how plans usually form, from what I understand.
But Trump said he didn't know anything about it! Are you saying he might've stated a mistruth?
Anyone who thought different, who thought "Project 2025" was off the table because Trump said so!: You are idiots who should not be allowed to touch anyhing that could break, and you better not breed.
Unfortunately it always seems to be the dumbest that breed most.
Idiocracy wasn't supposed to be a documentary.
Honestly, I'd take it over what we have now, or are about to get. Those people were at least smart enough to elect the best candidate.
Idiocracy is the most unrealistic movie ever made. President Comacho has a problem, finds the most qualified person to solve it, listens to them (reluctantly) and then dosent take credit. That would never happen in any political reality.
This is why Project 2025 intends to ban abortion and limit contraceptives. They want to proliferate their voter base.
Get sterilized while you still have the chance
My wife was de-uterized a few years back (mostly for other reasons), but it's been the best.
I fully believe Trump when he says
Note, he didn't say he would stop other people from executing the plan.
Bad news
Trump is amplifying the rhetoric overseas too
So, he's also ruining other countries too
Yea, but at least the proportional representation systems in Europe were delaying them a bit to cut off a few hostile actors, create defenses...now it is coming from the most important ally the disinfo storm is going to reach cat 6 :(
its frustrating dealing with this overseas. i am as far from the us as you can get, and it's worse dealing with it here. i wish i were back home at the moment with people who get it.
Part of me wants average people to realize the Republican leadership isn't on their side. The other part of me realizes once normal people take notice, it will be too late.
Those statements aren't contrarian at all they will realize it will be too late. Leopards will have a feast of faces.
It's already too late. It's just a matter of time.
Is this news? They presented their plan to destroy America, and are going to implement it. What did people expect?
When someone tells you they are a fascist, believe them the first time.
The "admit" part is the news.
If I make plans for a holiday, put down deposits on hotels, and print an itinerary for my time abroad, it’d be a bit pointless to “admit” I was going on holiday.
Yeah, that's how sane people operate. But we're dealing with a different breed here.
I wish Biden has the balls to label them as traitors and use his SC approved powers to jail them for treason.
They'd be right back out on Jan. 20th. Have to do something more permanent.
Trump's lawyers argued successfully in front of SCOTUS that a president could assassinate their political opponent.
...As long as the courts decide it's an "official act," ending with the SCOTUS itself. Nothing Biden did would ever be deemed an official act by them.
What would he have to lose at this point?
I agree! But he'd never do it even if he knew for a fact there would be no consequences for him from it.
I sure won't be holding my breath expecting him to, especially not after the speech he just gave.
I just looked up the gist of it. My reaction:
got a link for a non mercan?
He isn't even candidate Biden, in this case, so it's an official act. The law is so fucking bad.
Navy seals then.
This is probably more valid than some think. Trump and his cronies are a clear threat to the country and must be eliminated before the damage is done.
The problem being that the majority of voters want fascism. Defeating it requires more than just removing the leaders because more will just take their place.
I'm not so sure. I think these people genuinely do want to wriggle out of any sense of societal responsibility and want to ensure that there is an underclass ripe for extortion.
But I don't think many of them would catch a bullet for those ideas.
Yea, secret voting can be a way to launder your responsibility, by contributing to make someone else responsible for what you want to do.
Insert Shocked pikachu face
They know they can't win if people know who they are and what they want. Maybe this will teach a small fraction of their supporters who they really are.
People knew, they still voted for him.
They gave him a fucking mandate
There are some who have voted out of ignorance, and not malice. You're right, but not in every case.
Willfully ignorant is almost more malicious than spite.
Yeah. I consider both types to be bad people, but it's important to know the difference sometimes. I refuse to be reduced to inaccurate arguments just because we lost.
And the bull horn, and the press releases and the public speeches.
It's not like they've gone through any pains to hide it. Honestly, he stood on stage and shouted it at people. He said it directly to the press.
I'm not sure he could have tried any harder to tell them exactly what his plan was and who he is.
He didn't win despite who he is; he won because of it. He won because his base is that awful.
And I will NEVER let them forget it.
I wish they had the shame to process it.
Have you seen none of the flyers/banners that popped up this election? The fact that he's a felon is celebrated. The fact that he's a rapist is celebrated. The fact that he openly speaks against overtime pay is celebrated. Fuck, even his divorces are celebrated. He could literally shoot someone in the face at a rally, and it would just boost his support.
He's Homelander, but fat and without superpowers.
They don't care to understand the details or the nuance. They don't need to. The team they are cheering on has told them what to do and they enjoy obeying their masters.
But the flyer I got attached to my door said Trump totally disavowed it! Would a flyer attached to my door lie?
Would this face lie to you?
OH MY GAWD WHATS WRONG WITH UR FACE??!
And they want to attack overtime and Social Security. Great fucking job, Americans!
May the ones responsible suffer the consequences of their actions.
For the very unfortunate people becoming collateral damage, aka the remainder of the human population, may fate look mercifully upon us.
Don't forget: replacing nonpartisan government experts with Trump appointees, defending and reclassifying public media and banning pornography.
What? No tiddies?
Cave paintings.
Granted, you'll have to travel to see them since they'll be banned on the internet.
Just grab 'em by the pussy, I guess?
Can’t wait for every one of you fucks to realize what you’ve done voting for that scum. We’re all fucked.
They'll find some way to blame Dems for anything that becomes too unpopular, and their base will willingly buy into it to avoid responsibility - until something bites them personally. It'll take far too long for it to affect enough of them personally to save the rest of us with some semblance of rationality, though.
they will not realize anything. they don't believe what any of the news outlets say. we have been saying this for 8 years.
Maybe for a little while - until the department of education & a national abortion ban are completely wiped from society. All of us, not just the ones who made the right choice will suffer.
it's been 8 years. disillusionment is not happening.
Are we witnessing the extinction of mankind?
The hastening of it via increased climate change, yes.
Earth is already past the critical point tempurature.... No matter how much we clean up now (which we won't), the earth is already heading down the global warming path
Sure, but we could at least slow it down. Not happening now.
We were already witnessing that.
I've been watching since 2016, buddy.
Either they run into the filibuster in the senate and it stops most of this, or we finally do away with the filibuster and when the democrats come in to clean up after 2/4 years of disaster, we don't have the filibuster stopping all the good ideas the democrats are suppose to support.
Assuming the ditch the filibuster and implement 2025, there will be no more elections.
There will be no "democrats come in". I'll be surprised if there is ever another election.
The only thing that could change this is the people making heads roll.
But we won't.
There will still be elections -- even Russia still holds elections. They just won't be free or fair.
There will definitely be another election. But it will be like the elections in Hungary and Russia. Meaningless window dressing.
it's funny, you think there's enough time.
clocks done, boy. the bell has rung, the match called, and the crowd is gone.
pack your bags and find somewhere else to hang up your hat.
we lost, so much.
assuming they dont get rid of the filibuster, and then put it back on their way out if they manage to lose power again
That's some 5d chess right there
Rules (filibuster) for thee but not for me is the guiding principle of the right wing.
Dictators don't typically take too kindly to filibusters.
The Americans are now really the leopards that are eating their faces in this moment.
The Miami zombie was simply ahead of his time.
Those silly Americans, as always.
All i really want to know at this point is whether or not Fuck Joe Biden flags are passé now
Biden is still the sitting president.
We all knew this as did everyone who voted him in. When you look at your neighbours never forget who they are.
I’m not sure I understand why they’re getting rid of the department of education? Why not change it? Why get rid of it entirely.
If someone could ELI5 that shit, I’d be grateful.
getting rid of it means they can redirect funds to private schools which indoctrinate kids into being conservatives
Also wage slaves don't need education that might make them strive for a life better than creating excess value for their owners.
Right. So it’s about breaking the public school system and ultimately replacing them with private institutions?
Okay. Yeesh.
Read Project 2025. They are doing this with every regulatory agency. And the ones that they actually do replace, will be filled with Trump sycophants instead of career experts in their respective fields.
Say goodbye to the EPA and the FDA.
I didn't see this in the other replies: they genuinely don't believe in government.
Yarvin, Thiel, Musk, Trump all believe the country is best run as a business. By which they mean they can fire you from the country and you have to leave if they don't like you. It also means that if you make a bad decision and destroy the country because you want to you should be allowed to. However they also believe that because they are rich and powerful it stands to reason, ipso facto, that they got there because they are good at their jobs, therefore it follows any decisions they make are good decisions and thus are the right ones. Those who disagree or would have made different decisions are wrong and bad at their jobs because they are not the president and the president is correct because he's the president.
Basically this. They're all neofeudalists with a thin coat of "but it's business and not a divine mandate" on top. Thiel specifically has made no secrets of his desire to destroy federal power, and effectively just reimagine the country as a bunch of feudal city-states, loosely linked by something resembling a monarch (who isn't Thiel because he's actually terrified of being in the public eye for anything).
once services are privatized, it is very difficult to make them public again. the damage is pretty much permanent
It all makes sense when you realize they have no intention to actually run the country in good faith. They intend to do two things, plunder everything they can, and irreparably destroy the country's future to get revenge for having the audacity to try to move forward.
Job #1 has always been to loot the treasury. It's a class war and they just scored a major victory.
This is why I don't even think Trump really cares all that much about immigrants, or trans persons, or abortion rights. All of it was campaign rhetoric to keep him out of jail, and otherwise they are all in the same basket of people he doesn't spend a second thinking about. The problem is that also means he also doesn't care about what the white supremacists and the evangelists in his party will do.
Fucking goddammit. I guess people decided to wait until AFTER the election to inform themselves of the implications of one of the parties winning.
You fucking knob. You realize people who aren’t American are on here, right?
Grow up.
I said "people." Not everything is about you
Then why on the fuckin’ green earth would you write the words you did directly under my post?
🙄 You’re not retconning your way out of that, pal. Pot calling the kettle black here.
English can be a weird language sometimes. The royal "you," mannn
Not retconning anything.
I post comments with other readers in mind. I did mean you, but also everyone else.
Turns out I was wrong about you, but it is still targeted at others
Because stupid masses voted him in. Stupid masses are easier to control.
They want dumb, obedient people they can convince to give up their rights.
Over halfway there!
They also want to turn universities into PragerU types.
They don't want there to be a tool to undo what they've done. If there's no watchdog they can privatize education without worry that losing an election means a quick stop to what's happened. The very first court argument against a democrat run government in 2028 would be that only the Dept of Ed had the statutory power to stop them.
Just like the constitution, states can add to, but not take away from federal department of education regulations. For example, the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) is a law that makes available a free appropriate public education to eligible children with disabilities throughout the nation and ensures special education and related services to those children. Changing laws if difficult and no one wants to go on record voting against special needs. So they can just get rid of the department that enforces laws and say they are leaving up to the states.
As someone who lives in a red state and has a child with special needs, the IDEA law is the only reason my child gets any support in school. If they get rid of the department of education then states like Texas can reduce their special education services even further, so they can build more multi-million dollar high school football stadiums.
No one alive now really remembers what life was like for the disabled before civil rights laws passed. It was bad. Disabled people were hidden and locked away in tiny secret rooms their whole lives.
And that's if you were lucky and your Mom or Dad didn't just either give you up for adoption or leave you in the fields one night and wash their hands of you.
I really hope the Jill Stein voters and non voters will suffer tremendously under this. Same for MAGA but they dont mind suffering for Trump.
Unfortunately the dissenters will be the first to go.
I really hope the DNC party elite suffer tremendously under this. They won't, but they should.
Yes let's hope minorities suffer under fascism. That's a good strategy.
Moron.
People who didnt vote for Harris did it to themselves. They wanted the fascism or they would have voted against it. Its only fair if they suffer the most from their decision
Since when is "hoping" a strategy?
There's no need to hope, we know what happens to minorities under fascism. The ones who only get deported will probably end up being the lucky ones in the long run.
Puh-lease. They're minorities only in the way that they voted.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gnEH9MAgSGA
There are trends - this video explains it well. Trump will reshape America, he will cement power and make sure it's much easier for MAGA to succeed in future (making it easy, rigging the system, for them to be re-elected).
You are entering a new authoritarian regime in the USA.
Many folks voted Trump because they don't trust politicians, they don't trust Democracy, and now they get what they want - Democracy takes the biggest hit in history - and it's not because of Trump, it's a worldwide trend - there have been no new Democracies for a good many years already.
Project 2025 (which Trump laughably kept saying 'I never heard of it, I never read it' - he's laughing his tits off, he loves the lower class working Americans, he loves Americans with low education... because they just signed him into power thinking he gives a toss about them - he doesn't.
He hates them, he hates women, he's racist, misogynistic, a criminal and a liar.
Project 2025 is a right wing manifesto - opposing abortion and reproductive rights, even outlawing FDA approved safe drugs used in medical abortion... reviving 19th century extreme right wing laws.
Also opposing LGBTQ rights, opposing immigrants' rights, a racial manual for reorganising the entire federal government to serve a right wing agenda.
You will see now mass raids, deportations, an end to birthright citizenship, breaking up families and dismantling asylum.
Trump will also work to bring in power of warrantless surveillance - to be exploited to spy on Americans and their data... radically expanding executive power and making a mockery of American's idea of having freedom.
Trump will also use executive authority to limit First Amendment freedoms, he will have power to mute the press, also damaging fair replresentation in the voting process (he said - you won't have to vote again, with a wry grin on his face).
Watching Trump you can see he's TELLING YOU what he plans to do, laughing at you for being stupid, because he knows you don't take it seriously.
Basically, it's the fascist's playbook - and you voted this POS into power.

In response to another post about Project 2025
Congratulations nzmaa, you won. You're going to live in my mind 24/7 for the next four years.
Where can we read the actual agenda?
https://static.project2025.org/2025_MandateForLeadership_FULL.pdf
Thanks! Almost 1000 pages... I'll need some time...
Here's a comic that covers the worst parts. 21 pages iirc
Here is a decent video from Youtuber "Second Thought". If you don't want to know how it came to be you can skip to 11:40.
Thanks, I'll take a look, but I'll reserve judgement until I've read it myself.
Of course. Just be prepared for a dry and frightening read.
Maybe I'll do a 'let's read'
You need to stop thinking about these things in the context of the ethics and social mores that you grew up with. I don't think people understand what fascism actually means, and just how total an autocrat's power is. Especially if the GOP also have full control of all three branches of the federal government.
It seems like there are people who just do not grasp to what extent we are fucked, and they will not until they literally start lining Democratic politicians against the wall and executing them.
Anything short of that, and they think it's just fear mongering or something. Even then, there will be many that buy into whatever trumped up bullshit charges that get levied against them as justification for their murder. Assuming they even bother with that.
Americans are too ignorant to understand what they just did... Specifically those who voted for Trump, and those who chose not to vote over a single issue.
Well, traditionally..
Republicans also won the house and senate.
With the combined total of a right controlled presidency, congress, and supreme court what can't they do?
They know they can so it happens.
What is Project 2025?
https://youtu.be/bQcL0t73O5Y?si=xQmT9EZtVwWqQOas
Honestly, I think they should do it and Democrats need to get on board or step aside. This is what the people, including the 15 million Democrats, independents, and progressives that didn't vote this election, wanted this election.
The what?
there was an absence of 15-20 million votes that were never cast.
Trump actually got 2 million LESS votes than he got in 2020.
that means the majority of those missing votes were Democrats and Independents.
If you didn't vote this election you're worse than the red hat Nazis IMO.
This election just proves that I made the right choice changing to Libertarian last year.
You're a fucking idiot. Lol thanks for getting us trump
I voted for Harris. Thanks for assuming
Make up your mind or stfu and stop trying to bait people.
I’m not bating anyone. I’m a left leaning libertarian and there’s nothing wrong with voting for someone outside my party. You don’t have any right to tell me what not to say. It’s called freedom of speech
We're not the government (which is what the free speech is all about). We can judge your opinions all we want.
That’s right it still I don’t appreciate the hostility. I didn’t vote for Trump or did I just not vote
Seriously just stop giving this person a hard time. They voted for what is right, at least. Whether they identify outside of that party, who cares? It's not going to change (and in any case worked in your favor toward) the election outcome, which is what you are actually upset about.
Are you universal monk?
Yeah. That's the takeaway. 🙄
In deep red Indiana, more people voted for RFK, Jr. than Chase Oliver.
So few people, even in a deep red state, want what libertarians are selling that more people voted for a guy who dropped out of the race.
So if you mean that you made the right choice to never, ever get what you want, you most certainly did.
Okay well I don’t agree with those libertarians there are factions in our party esp with right leaning side as well. Idk what you want me to say
You don't agree with which libertarians? The ones that chose your party's candidate? Maybe you're in the wrong party.
No I would have voted for Chase Oliver if he had any chance to get close to the White House. I’m saying I don’t agree with libertarians that voted for rfk but those are right leaning libertarians that total anti regulatory. I’m center left leaning libertarian
Not if you wanted Chase Oliver to be the president, you're not.
Oh no, I'm sure you're a libertarian.
I just don't buy the left-leaning part considering Oliver's platform.
No they won't they'll implement 50 - 75 percent of it. Ditching what's not popular enough or appealing enough to business men and their popular base.
Let's say you're right and they get 50 percent of it done...I can't even imagine what the world will look like in 4 years...it'll be whatever fox tells me to believe I guess.
Oh, well no problem then. I'm not sure why everyone is worried when it's only 25-50% of fascist policies that will be implemented.
Yeah, that said - I don't think he's a fascist yet. I think he's an extreme Capitalist with a narcissistic personality.
He likes to joke, play, and dance with violent rhetoric to get views and likes. He goads the left into giving him attention, and his supporters find it funny.
So I think he'll be a more run of the mill candidate than most on the left are claiming. This is because American democracy is already corrupt, already serves mostly the wealthy and bigotted, at the cost of the stupid, poor, vulnerable, and ignorant.
So he won't be a noteworthy fascist unless there's a government action results in a mass violence, OR he refuses to leave office.
I'm not sure what you think fascism is, but it isn't that.
It also isn't anything Trump has actually done. He jokes about being violent or fascist to get attention and goad the left into giving him even more attention - and they fall for it every time. He laughs at them with his supporters about this.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_Trump_photo_op_at_St._John%27s_Church
Would you like other examples?
He held the bible for a photo op? That's your proof he's tangibly doing fascist actions?
You know a large majority get sworn in on that thing?
He had protesters tear gassed and removed for his photo op to hold that bible. Pay attention.
Bah, I don't think there's a chance in hell any of this doesn't get some form of implementation. Remember, Trump didn't actually do a lot of anything in his first admin. Most of his day-to-day, most of the actual decision making was left to the Cabinet. Which is gonna be stacked with Heritage Foundation picks and the people who actually want this shit.
As far as "government action resulting in mass violence", one of his campaign speeches was him talking about unleashing the military and the police for "one really bad, really rough day", which sounds an awful lot like a government action resulting in mass violence.
My nephew told us about a DoD policy change made in September authorizing military lethal force domestically in support of law enforcement during domestic unrest. They were all called into meetings to be informed of this policy change. He said he would not obey orders to fire on American citizens.
What is wrong with the Project 2025?
Literally all of it
Found the guy living inside his own asshole.
To be fair, I have heard a lot of vague fear mongering around the project with very little clear statements of exactly what it's proposing, until this thread. None of this is to suggest it's not as bad as people were making it out to be - it seems fucking horrific and regressive - but I won't attack someone for wanting to know the specifics.
Mind you, I'm Canadian. If I were American, I suspect I'd have read at least parts of the primary text, because that's what I tend to do.
EDIT: Okay, I decided to start reading about it right after making this post. It's fucked. You all are fucked. Welcome to a White Christian Nationalist Ethnostate.
The comment from Maven is, as you found, accurate.
The answer is all of it.
It wants to get rid of free school meals for children

Damit! I knew it!
Serious question, with no hidden agenda or follow up comments: Do you enjoy watching other people suffer?
"Yes, because the reduced happiness of others elevates mine in comparison. This is because I believe in a rigid social hierarchy where happiness is zero-sum, and it's the only way I'm able to climb the ladder. Once the short-lived boost in happiness inevitably wears off due to the world not actually working in that way, I will further look to enable suffering to forever chase the high in the only way I know. I will never truly feel deep satisfaction and inner peace, and I will slowly decline into old age feeling ever more isolated and bitter.
Get rekt, libs."
