Those of you who said "TrUMp HaS NoTHiNg tO Do wITh PrOJEcT 2025" are either the worst kinds of idiots or the worst kinds of liars.

MAGA has been remarkably quiet on this thread.

Too bad the media wasn’t a little more diligent covering it before the election and getting the GOP on the record about their plans to implement or push back.

But of course, Harris’ laugh and what handouts the twenty “undecided” voters in Pennsylvania wanted was more important.

When the authors of Project 2025 also author OPM memos to satisfy their goals

Correction: Aperture 2025 initiative

Do you think Hollywood's w0ke "Aperature 2025" is finished now that Trump will be our next president?

Suddenly, Trump’s Ugliest Threats Are Facing Surprise GOP Resistance

One of Trump’s central campaign claims was that green energy and immigration pose a massive threat to American workers. But now it seems local Republicans think otherwise.

Good luck, GOP!

Whoops.

re: "raids on illegals"

This will just be a show piece in big blue cities so Trump can have the military on the streets as a show of force.

In the red areas where businesses rely on illegal workers, there won't be anything.

Now he's appointed several Project 2025 folks. Interesting, I thought he didn't know anything about it.

Trumpers - what say you?

I'm shocked that he lied.

You mean the ones earlier on this thread calling people who were concerned liars and leftists? The ones telling us it wasn't Trump's agenda? Those guys?

So many red flags. The whole singling out federal workers, academics. History repeating itself.

Extremely interesting. Especially since it came out in 2017 before Project 2025.

Here is the checklist for those who won't click the link:

Authoritarian Checklist

□ Win elections on fear & populist promises

□ Reclaim power for the People from the “elites”

□ Purge highest positions in key government institutions

□ Place cronies in positions of highest power regardless of their competence

□ Brush off any critical press as “fake”, “corrupt”, “acting against the People”

□ Bluntly lie to the People

□ Ban press from parliament/congress/White House or selectively limit their access

□ Limit press freedom & quietly take control of mainstream media

□ Label opposition & protesters as “traitors”, “elites trying to reclaim power”

□ Limit freedom of assembly

□ Fix highest court to be able to bypass Constitution “for the good of the people”

□ Limit minority & women’s rights

□ Ruin the economy to fulfil your populist promises in the short term

□ Alienate international partners and allies, “making your country great again”

□ Quietly fix electoral law under the disguise of making it better

□ Start over, until there’s nothing left
