Trump is now trying to distance himself from Project 2025, claiming he has "no idea who is behind it." Don't be fooled. The playbook is written by more than 20 officials Trump appointed in his first term. It is the clearest vision we have of a 2nd Trump presidency.

Trump has gone off the rails at recent campaign events. If Biden’s difficulties are fair game, why isn’t Trump’s apparent mental decline front and center?

If Trump has “no idea” who the authors behind Project 2025 are, he’s showing an alarming cognitive decline. He appointed most of them to roles in his administration! Project 2025 is, in short, the plan to implement what Donald Trump has said he wants to do if he’s reelected.

Boeing has agreed to plead guilty to criminal conspiracy to commit fraud. Boeing’s descent reveals everything wrong with American capitalism today.

Trump is Project 2025. It is his plan, written by people he hand-chose, to put every aspect of Americans' lives under MAGA control. I'll be releasing a video about it soon, but in the mean time, please read this.?

Housing costs are now the biggest driver of inflation. Here's one thing that's keeping them high.

If you think the Supreme Court is out of control now, imagine if Trump appoints two, three, or four more justices.

When I say the Trump tax cuts were nothing more than a trickle-down scam, this is why. Nothing trickled down.

The corporate takeover of American politics was rapid and ruthless. In the 1970s, I watched as thousands of corporate lobbyists descended on Washington. Fast forward to today, and lobbying has become a multi-billion dollar industry. It all began with the Powell Memo.

Conservatives say raising the minimum wage would drive up inflation. But the federal minimum wage hasn't gone up since 2009. Average CEO pay has gone up about 60% since 2009. Whose pay is contributing to inflation?
