Under pressure from his party to drop out of the race, President Joe Biden even brought up defending against Project 2025 as reason to keep him in power.

Because it’s absolutely fucking insane, and no reasonable person should ever vote for a candidate who is attached to it.

I fucking hate that all corporate media is like

“Why are Democrats so scared of Project 2025? It’s just a little fascism. What could be the reason? Are they crazy for opposing it?”

Like no, Mein Orange Kampf should be fucking plastered everywhere in bright red letters as a warning

This is an insane right-wing newsrag though, so it’s not that crazy they’re acting this way.

any individual involved in the crafting of it should forever have it hung around their necks for the next century. “so and so said blah, but remember in 2024 when they were involved with a seditious conspiracy to gut the government? so moving on…”

hundreds of people put their fucking names on this peon to a trump kakocracy. it should haunt them all.

It’s just a blueprint for the fascist takeover of America, the creation of the Fourth Reich, and a little light treason. What could go wrong? - Republican owned media (which is 90% of US Media right now.)

I’m just as critical of Biden as anyone here, and I’d vote for anyone else the DNC put up over him in a heartbeat. But holy shit this entire article is basically saying that Democrats are using Project 2025 as an excuse to deflect criticism from him, ignoring the fact that we’ve been wary of the Heritage Foundation since its inception. It’s actually a good thing that it’s finally getting attention.

Neither Trump nor his campaign have direct ties, though many former officials and staffers contributed to the project.

So people he hired because of ideological alignment then writing the ideological thing is not a direct tie?

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That’s all the rules!
