If they’re going to let trump get away with claiming that he finds parts of Project 2025 awful and disgusting, some member of the media should at least ask him “what part?”

The fact that Trump is actually weakly attempting to pretend he doesn’t back Project 2025 = EXACTLY why you need to be telling everyone you know about their evil, violent plans.

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?

The Sandlot is iconic in that two generations of American baseball fans use it to talk about pickup baseball —a game that has been extinct in the wild since before the movie released. It’s a kind of false cultural memory

Another lesson: the LibDems have played a long game. They focused on winning local elections, building trust, and as trust eroded in the Tories, voters in LibDem local government areas returned LibDem MPs. Some lessons here for us in Virginia

In school you’re taught that bringing a frivolous claim for the sole purpose of provoking delay or harassing another party is unethical conduct that will get you sanctioned. In practice we see that nothing matters

An enlarged House necessarily alters the electoral college, as electors are apportioned in the same way as House seats. That fixes some of the EC’s legitimacy gap without requiring a constitutional amendment

Add to this: New Apportionment. The House must be enlarged according to the Wyoming Rule. We can´t abolish the EC without a constitutional amendment, but we can enlarge the house with an act of Congress.

While DOJ independence was already a dead letter for purposes of a second Trump term since Attorney General E. Trump or J. Turley or whoever will have been chosen expressly because he's willing to take orders, also worth noting that Roberts blessed POTUS telling AG whom to prosecute.
