Summary
Kevin Roberts, president of the Heritage Foundation and architect of Trump’s Project 2025, employs intense fire-related rhetoric in his upcoming book, Dawn’s Early Light: Taking Back Washington to Save America, advocating for a “controlled burn” of institutions he deems corrupt or antithetical to conservative goals.
Roberts calls for dismantling entities like the FBI, Ivy League schools, and the New York Times, framing it as necessary to “renew” America.
His incendiary language has sparked controversy, with critics alarmed by the violent imagery and its implications for Trump’s second term.
I would disagree, I have only my own perception to go off of but from my observations:
There were 3 or 4 prosecutors chomping at the bit to go after Trump but Garland held them back.
It wasn’t until they found out about the missing documents that things changed. Even then Garland just wanted the documents returned, if Trump had complied that would have been the end of it.
It wasn’t until Trump refused to return specific documents that we knew he had - that crossed a red line for Garland.
Once you let one prosecutor go after Trump, what’s the excuse for holding back the others? So the flood gate was open, but only when every attempt was made to let Trump get away with it all.
