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.
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. www.salon.com/2024/07/05/p...
Project 2025 was supposed to boost Donald Trump's campaign — but now it may be backfiringwww.salon.com Trump's authoritarian game plan is breaking through to people who haven't heard of it — and it's scaring them

I mean…they aren’t? There hasn’t been a single thing I can remember that wasn’t worked out ahead of time.
a big takeaway from all of the Biden drama is that huge swathes of the public — including reasonably engaged people — think that political parties are a small cabal of elites who select candidates by hand

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?

Reminder that enlarging the house also alters the electoral college in a way to bring more influence over the presidency to populous states
Watching the British election returns I feel compelled to point out that the 650 person House of Commons represents 67 million people and the 435 person House of Representatives in the United States represents 333 million. Replace the Permanent Apportionment Act of 1929. We deserve representation.

Wow, real banana republic stuff. I'm glad our presidents can launder money and associate criminally without worrying about this kind of thing.

The greatest moment of my naturalization was when all the new citizens started filling out their voter registration cards.
just watched 74 people speaking at least a dozen different languages become american citizens in a ceremony at monticello, where the speakers were themselves children of immigrants. inspiring stuff and a vivid illustration of what reactionaries want to snuff out

Democracy means idiots also have a vote…which makes it important to bring idiots to your side and to make sure you outvote and out organize the idiots

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
“A senior source involved with…Trump’s 2024 effort… and another person working with the Heritage-based Project 2025 (the conservative policy agenda project) tell Rolling Stone that the point of these multi-pronged legal attack plans and potential blitz of challenges isn’t necessarily to win…”

The nicest Federalist Paper
if only Federalist 69 were just, in its entirely, Hamilton saying super clearly “sure, this constitution has one executive leader, but I can’t stress enough that it’s different from a king because a President is accountable, including to criminal law” avalon.law.yale.edu/18th_century...
