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.
You mean they didn’t write a 900 page manifesto for the lulz?
I’m so fucking done with this country man, people make me so tired of living. I’m so disappointed, and the amount of lives this orange fuck is going to destroy is so immense it’s just so depressing. and I hate living in a red state surrounded by idiots who genuinely think this is a good idea, and think I shouldn’t even have basic rights.
But the flyer I got attached to my door said Trump totally disavowed it! Would a flyer attached to my door lie?
Don’t forget: replacing nonpartisan government experts with Trump appointees, defending and reclassifying public media and banning pornography.
I’m not sure I understand why they’re getting rid of the department of education? Why not change it? Why get rid of it entirely.
If someone could ELI5 that shit, I’d be grateful.
They don’t want there to be a tool to undo what they’ve done. If there’s no watchdog they can privatize education without worry that losing an election means a quick stop to what’s happened. The very first court argument against a democrat run government in 2028 would be that only the Dept of Ed had the statutory power to stop them.
getting rid of it means they can redirect funds to private schools which indoctrinate kids into being conservatives
Also wage slaves don’t need education that might make them strive for a life better than creating excess value for their owners.
Right. So it’s about breaking the public school system and ultimately replacing them with private institutions?
Okay. Yeesh.
Can’t get an educated mind to work readily against their best interest…or to work down in a mine.
Because stupid masses voted him in. Stupid masses are easier to control.
I wish Biden has the balls to label them as traitors and use his SC approved powers to jail them for treason.
They’d be right back out on Jan. 20th. Have to do something more permanent.
Navy seals then.
Are we witnessing the extinction of mankind?
We were already witnessing that.
The hastening of it via increased climate change, yes.
Earth is already past the critical point tempurature… No matter how much we clean up now (which we won’t), the earth is already heading down the global warming path
Sure, but we could at least slow it down. Not happening now.
Is this news? They presented their plan to destroy America, and are going to implement it. What did people expect?
When someone tells you they are a fascist, believe them the first time.
The “admit” part is the news.
Anyone who thought different, who thought “Project 2025” was off the table because Trump said so!: You are idiots who should not be allowed to touch anyhing that could break, and you better not breed.
Unfortunately it always seems to be the dumbest that breed most.
Idiocracy wasn’t supposed to be a documentary.
Honestly, I’d take it over what we have now, or are about to get. Those people were at least smart enough to elect the best candidate.
Idiocracy is the most unrealistic movie ever made. President Comacho has a problem, finds the most qualified person to solve it, listens to them (reluctantly) and then dosent take credit. That would never happen in any political reality.
This is why Project 2025 intends to ban abortion and limit contraceptives. They want to proliferate their voter base.
Get sterilized while you still have the chance
My wife was de-uterized a few years back (mostly for other reasons), but it’s been the best.
May the ones responsible suffer the consequences of their actions.
For the very unfortunate people becoming collateral damage, aka the remainder of the human population, may fate look mercifully upon us.
Where can we read the actual agenda?
Thanks! Almost 1000 pages… I’ll need some time…
Here’s a comic that covers the worst parts. 21 pages iirc
Here is a decent video from Youtuber “Second Thought”. If you don’t want to know how it came to be you can skip to 11:40.
Thanks, I’ll take a look, but I’ll reserve judgement until I’ve read it myself.
Of course. Just be prepared for a dry and frightening read.
Maybe I’ll do a ‘let’s read’
This election just proves that I made the right choice changing to Libertarian last year.
You’re a fucking idiot. Lol thanks for getting us trump
I voted for Harris. Thanks for assuming
I switched to the Libertarian party
I voted for Harris
Make up your mind or stfu and stop trying to bait people.
I’m not bating anyone. I’m a left leaning libertarian and there’s nothing wrong with voting for someone outside my party. You don’t have any right to tell me what not to say. It’s called freedom of speech
We’re not the government (which is what the free speech is all about). We can judge your opinions all we want.
That’s right it still I don’t appreciate the hostility. I didn’t vote for Trump or did I just not vote
I really hope the Jill Stein voters and non voters will suffer tremendously under this. Same for MAGA but they dont mind suffering for Trump.
Unfortunately the dissenters will be the first to go.
Yes let’s hope minorities suffer under fascism. That’s a good strategy.
Moron.
People who didnt vote for Harris did it to themselves. They wanted the fascism or they would have voted against it. Its only fair if they suffer the most from their decision
All i really want to know at this point is whether or not Fuck Joe Biden flags are passé now
Funny you should mention that; just today I saw a house still flying a “Let’s go Brandon” flag. I thought it was stupid last year when I drove by there and saw it, but this is next level obsession. I guess there wasn’t enough time to find a “Kambala bad” flag.
Biden is still the sitting president.
Did anyone ACTUALLY believe they didn’t?
Sadly yes, I told many people about it and they all said “Trump’s not going for it, he rejected it, that’s just fear mongering”
Bastards
Every person that said " they just want abortion rights to be up to the states," was either ignorant, or an idiot. Unfortunately it doesn’t matter anymore, they fell into the I support fucking women’s rights category.
My aunt :|
One of my family members actually said that they wouldn’t vote for P25. I told them it was a platform, not an item on a ballot… confused looks.
“it’s like ‘the gay agenda’”
I’ve been listening to interviews and most people think Trump won’t do what he says he will, much less something that he says he won’t. It’s unbelievable.
Trump NEVER lies about what he wants to do. He always lies about his accomplishments.
Bs, he always lies. Him and Pence set out to destroy Roe v Wade, not because he wanted to, but because he thought it would get him a base of people who will not change their mind no matter how many people it hurts. He wants followers that will stab their family members to death to support his cause, which he doesn’t support, he just needs blind loyalty.
Trump I guarantee you wanted abortion legal for his life, the guy frolicked around children beauty shows and flaunted it as if it was good. Epstein ties up the wazoo. Grab them by the pussy, they don’t mind. He wants immigrants to be able to come here, or his wife or his new friend Musk who defined himself as an illegal recently wouldn’t be here. It is fascism to the core. It’s shut the fuck up and do what I say and nothing else, even if you don’t agree and people you care about get hurt.
Quite frankly, it’s terrorism by definition.
Any conservative issues that are motivated primarily by religion, such as abortion, Trump doesn’t give a fuck about. He’ll just sign whatever they put in front of him. Things stemming primarily from racism or misogyny, though, he’s all for.

Look at all of the dumb fucking liberals on Lemmy huffing copium.
The Republic has fallen, and the liberals won’t even try to stop it. At least the fucking Roman Senate killed Caesar.
a) wind up on a list
b) don’t wind up on a list
I’m not saying anyone should be killed, but I do believe saying such would get you put on a list in this country moving forward. I can tell you what list it is too. They will label it ANTIFA, and they already listed that group as terrorists. It isn’t hard to understand why people in a country riddled with threats wouldn’t speak out publicly in at such a time
On a side note to get ahead of flack, yes I know that was a group in Germany that opposed fhe NAZI party. There were no official groups in the U.S., but still it managed to wind up on our terrorist list after Trump’s wild accusations about January 6th, who he now claims are the opposite. His fans… Who he supposedly wants to pardon. Not mentioning that they did every illegal act they were convicted of.
If you weren’t already on a list you’re part of the problem.
Have you ever been arrested for being on a list, because I’d like to walk through that with you.
Edit: Nevermind, waste of timeYes, you people are.
? You were describing your experiences, what are you talking about?
Edit: you see how someone asked you a question and you created a “people” when they were asking a simple question, that’s how I know you are easy to accept defining mass groups of people into groups with no conclusive information. Like racisism and sexism. You shoveled your own shit there
Yes, my MAGA family members bought Trump’s line of “I don’t know who is involved in that”.
They are not only lying to you, they are lying to themselves.
Factcheck and similar ones always claimed that Trump supporting project 2025 was Fake or needs context
I have a feeling someone paid good money for Snopes and similar sites. Or have some kompromat on rheir editors.
It’s because he maintained plausible deniability, no bribes or kompromat necessary. Fact checkers couldn’t definitively say he supported project 25 because he feigned ignorance.
