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.

    This election just proves that I made the right choice changing to Libertarian last year.

      In deep red Indiana, more people voted for RFK, Jr. than Chase Oliver.

      So few people, even in a deep red state, want what libertarians are selling that more people voted for a guy who dropped out of the race.

      So if you mean that you made the right choice to never, ever get what you want, you most certainly did.

            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

                  Seriously just stop giving this person a hard time. They voted for what is right, at least. Whether they identify outside of that party, who cares? It’s not going to change (and in any case worked in your favor toward) the election outcome, which is what you are actually upset about.
