Summary

Following Donald Trump’s election victory, Republicans are now openly embracing Project 2025, a policy agenda from The Heritage Foundation that outlines sweeping conservative reforms.

Despite Trump’s attempts to distance himself from the project during his campaign due to its extreme proposals—including expanded executive powers, a national abortion ban, stricter contraception limits, harsh immigration policies, and the elimination of agencies like the Department of Education—his allies quickly began celebrating its implementation.

Former Trump adviser Steve Bannon and commentator Matt Walsh publicly affirmed the agenda, signaling the GOP’s commitment to enacting these controversial policies in Trump’s second term.

    There will be no “democrats come in”. I’ll be surprised if there is ever another election.

    The only thing that could change this is the people making heads roll.

    But we won’t.

      There will definitely be another election. But it will be like the elections in Hungary and Russia. Meaningless window dressing.

      There will still be elections – even Russia still holds elections. They just won’t be free or fair.
