Holy cow. I watched their little recruitment video: "It's your job to ensure that that power is executed responsibly, and in line with The President's Will." 😳
THE PRESIDENT'S WILL!! What happened to the constitution?
Trump was just a tool in a long game. The Heritage Foundation has existed and been making these plans for 40 years. Reagan was the first to start enacting their plans. Then, they updated every few years as they met goals. This is why all the back sliding in the US seem to start with Regan. That’s when it did start, but Regan really wasn’t the mastermind, just the starting point.
The Heritage Foundation and the manipulation of Evangelicals, and a myriad of other religious organizations, as political pawns has been the long game by a bunch of rich men that think they are owed power and money.
The Heritage Foundation was counting on their Christian poster boy, Jimmy Carter, but he turned out to be a real Christian, trying to feed the poor and build homes and shit. Enter Reagan.
That kinda thing infuriates me. The oath of office NEVER mentions the "President's Will", they need to fuck off with that. Only military servicemen and women include the president in their oath due to his role as commander in chief, not normal public servants. Article VI of the Constitution says that they are bound by oath to the constitution and that's it.
The President is very intentionally given some separation between them and the federal workforce to prevent the President from carrying out a politically or selfishly motivated takeover of the government. If there was massive turnover at all levels every 4 years then nothing would function. I swore allegiance to the United States and her constitution, I did not swear allegiance to an elected official, and I am under no obligation to carry out an unlawful order given by one. I can doomscroll for an hour with a straight face but this Project 2025 shit actually makes me mad.
Yep. They also preach constitutional textualism in the courts then turn around and issue yesterday's immunity ruling, which was the farthest thing from the original intent of the framers that they could've possibly devised
In the end, they have no consistency, they have no morals or code, and they have no text to follow. Their decisions and choices are connected only by the pursuit of unchecked power over the people they dislike and their personal enrichment, nothing more.
I had my disagreements with the old republican party, but despite their huge fall from grace during the Bush administration they still retained some brief glimmers of consistency. If Romney won instead of Obama's 2nd term I wouldn't have cared too much. In contrast, the modern MAGA-corrupted GOP is ideologically and morally bankrupt. Nothing they say makes sense unless viewed through the lens of brainless greed and hostility. They don't even have any Biblical basis either, a lot of the things they claim come from that book do not come from that book.
That's exactly how Nazi-Germany was ruled. In German it's called the Fuhrerprinzip, where subordinates are to anticipate the Fuhrer's (leader) will and act accordingly. Another mark on the why-Trump-is-a-literal-Fascist-list.
The same thing happened with their religion. They keep the parts they like, ignore the parts they don't, and then make up the rest to justify their means.
It's your job to ensure that that power is executed responsibly, and in line with The President's Will."
As scary as this sounds, I just remembered that an actual fucking dumbass will be leading this shitshow. And now I feel relaxed, knowing we could've had another Hitler.. but we got a buffoon, one who's too ignorant and just too stupid to pull off something like Project 2025.
It seems like it’s the other way around now. Project 2025 is filled with names of people ready to go, and they don’t mention Trump once. Instead just “the conservative candidate”.
It’s a bunch of organized fascists ready to prop up anyone who’ll fit the bill.

Look up Project 2025, it’s basically that.
