Don't let his lies scare you out of sharing the details of Project 2025 with everyone you know — especially those who are on the fence about their vote this year.
There's good reason to believe knowing about Project 2025 focuses people's minds on the stakes.

There are so many good points from Don here, including that Project 2025 shows how authoritarians adapt and why it's smart to focus on the personnel part of Project 2025 as much as the policies, which are basically just typical GOP policies rounded up to the highest possible number.

Just as important as analyzing what Project 2025 might do is understanding the power behind it and where it came from, for which @sarahposner.bsky.social, @antheabutler.bsky.social, @jeffsharlet.bsky.social, and @sarahjones.bsky.social would be great reads.

I'll keep repeating it until people understand, this is how you know it's a ratfucking operation and not a serious effort to determine if the president is mentally fit. None of these people care about policy, their entire industry is in it for controversy and clicks. It's a ratfucking op.

Nothing is stopping every single Democratic elected official and apparatchik from taking the airwaves every single day to articulately and decisively repeat a set of cogent talking points about Trump (ie 45). Nothing. Dem PACs could be slamming him with ads now. Stop whining and do that.

There are many things that infuriate me about the pundit class right now, but probably one of the top on my list: Project 2025 has posted their plans for every single federal department on their website. They have a training academy for prospective appointees. Where are the hard hitting op-eds?

There was no GOP party platform in 2020, and Trump wants to shrink the proposed 2024 one. He opposes providing detail on how radical his second term will be because he knows its unpopular. Make no mistake: Project 2025 was written by Trump appointees & loyalists. Its their shared agenda.

You see how Robinson invokes an *actual* war (WWII) to establish that this is, in fact, a "war" with combatants (who are the fellow citizens of the warriors he's inciting). He claims they are trying to make 1776 (i.e. the Christian founding) a "distant memory":

Giving credence to the idea that DOJ is driven by “Trump derangement syndrome” is bizarre. The feds have bent over backwards to give Trump every benefit of the doubt. To hold that Trump, of all people, needs special protection from unfair prosecution is to imbibe his hollow claims of victimization.
