What Is Project 2025? Inside the Far-Right Plan Threatening Everything from the Word 'Gender' to Public Educationpeople.com Donald Trump's far-right allies created Project 2025 as a blueprint for his possible second term. The controversial plan would push a Christian nationalist agenda that dramatically reshapes the U.S. g...

People mag is going to reach a bunch of people who don't otherwise pay attention to politics.

I'm really impressed. This is a very good editorial decision. The issue will be in hair and nail salons, doctors' offices, and auto service customer lounges for months. Lots of people who won't buy it will read it when it's free.

NYT wishes it had the reach of People magazine. 😼

It is great. They did a 2,500 word synopsis, with subsections in big bold print so people can immediately read what the stuff they care about most. Thank you, People Magazine.

This needs to be the Biden/Dem campaign. Don’t attack Trump. Everyone should know about Project 2025. Every horrific thing. Name it and shame it. Tie it to every down-ballot Republican. Make them answer questions about whether they support it. Make the platform toxic first , THEN link it to Trump.

Great strategy.

This is where we are: People, not NYTimes, is where you go for serious political journalism

People also did a great job with legal reporting and commentary on the Alec Baldwin trial, a story that I followed closely.

Teen Vogue too. Yes, I'm serious.

At 20, Teen Vogue knows its readers contain multitudes - Poynterwww.poynter.org Two decades in, the magazine is doubling down on politics and intersectionality (between celebrity trends and TikTok dupe guides)

I probably need to familiarize myself with editors at these mags cuz whoever greenlit these pieces has backbone I rarely see at msm

People magazine and the Washington Post have switched places

Now that they've gotten wind of it, they are saying it's just "guidelines" and we are overreacting.

Oh, so they will do way worse

The very idea that they would use a 34 count convicted felon, a convicted sexual predator/rapist, pedophile for their "Christian" based, evil, plan. The only thing he has in common with this group is that they are both white and mean. That's about it.

People more substantive than the major dailies. This country's turned upside down.

There’s something for EVERY PERSON IN AMERICA in this manifesto. All are devastating! The elimination of the Department of Education has been the Republican fever dream since Reagan.

i made this shareable version of my one sentence project 2025 summary so it can be easily shared across platforms. feel free to repost.

If Project 2025 alarms you, just wait until you see what Republicans have planned for 2027. 😳

"Politicizing the Justice Department and FBI" Where is the "Politicizing the Judiciary" section? AH, they already accomplished that.

Please, US people, please stop this nightmare. Vote for Biden. I'm begging you. Don't turn your country into hell.

Change that, vote who ever isthe new democrat candidate.

And you think Biden will save you from Project 2025? Hun, look at the picture, because this is how it works.

I haven't seen this before. I hope it doesn't work that way. In that case you really do not have a choice 😒. I'm so very worried for the people in the US right now.

No, that person is an ignoramus. Blocked immediately.

Thank the God for that.

Sorry to disappoint, but Steve Silberman is an ignoramus who I'm probably going to block immediately. The ratchet effect is very real and it's why US politics has been moving to the right since Nixon, to the point that now what we call 'centrism' is what the rest of the world calls the right.

What point do you think you're making?

people.com/what-is-proj... The point of eliminating the /words/ "reproductive rights" from government documents is, of course, to eliminate the expectation or idea that such rights exist.

I wish People en español would follow suit

Email em? Ask em? Worst they could say is no

Thank you, I did! I'll share if the editor responds and/or they publish a Spanish version

Kyler Alvord, the editor and writer of the piece, responded today and said he had pitched the idea to People en Español. He pointed out that although they do form part of the same company, they are largely independent of each other, vamos a ver!

Okay can you follow up with that in a few days to see if they responded to the pitch or however long it takes? I appreciate you doing that

Definitely, although I don't expect them to give me personal updates, I'll be watching and certainly sharing

Jesus. Haven't we been fighting this kind of bullshit since, at least,1972? I mean, I'm tired, but I absolutely refuse to become a "good German" to this scumbag.

People Magazine? So the dentist patients in Butler, PA might actually see some of this stuff?

Won't convince MAGA. Too partisan.

People magazine just might.

What did Trump say about Q anon? “Well, I don't know much about the movement other than I understand that they like me very much, which I appreciate,"

SMH: We're at the point when People magazine has more relevance and gravitas than the New York Times.

I have read some of the article provided by People magazine. It really is horrifying and surely will drag the nation backwards. Thank you for sharing.

Correct on the so far wrong

The Justice Committee is already well aligned with Trump and his cronies. judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

Heritage Foundation really took Orwell’s 1984 as a how-to guide didn’t they. Newspeak will be their mantra.

The birth of Gilead.

There's a small part of this I'm okay with, but I'm horrified enough by the rest of it that it's not worth even considering.
