A local church here in Salem, Oregon just contacted me and asked me to give a presentation on Project 2025. This is why the Trump campaign and the GOP is trying so hard to distance itself from this document produced by people in the vanguard of their movement.
On Chris Hayes podcast with Jamelle Bouie they talked about a possible reason for optimism: Project 2025 seems to have deeply penetrated TikTok. Anecdotally, my 15 yr old mentioned to me all the counselors she works with at camp have been talking about it and what rights they’re worried about losing
Eddings was a shock to me; I never really got into HP so Rowling didn’t hit as hard (although I find the TERF movement bizarre); I had to look up the Card issues and - it’s funny how a person can be insightful and yet not at all introspective. Card makes me sad
They are nutso and I didn’t have headspace for that kind of nut today so I blocked them. Of course I am also not an artist whose stuff they want to steal so I didn’t feel compelled to make them make sense
I’m sorry a Republican voter shot at the Republican leader at a Republican rally, and especially that he killed a Republican rally-goer and injured two more. I wish it didn’t happen, and hope nothing like it ever happens again.
I just don’t see how non-Republicans could be the ones to solve it.
This is definitely helping me flesh out my block list so thanks for that. It’s really amazing how many people have failed not only at fact checking but also basic reading comprehension.
