Summary
Despite disavowing Project 2025 during the campaign, Trump’s transition team is now using its extensive database of vetted conservative candidates to help fill over 4,000 government positions.
Project 2025, criticized for its extreme policy proposals and links to Trump’s first administration, created a “conservative LinkedIn” of 10,000 candidates.
While some contributors are being tapped for key roles, others face rejection due to controversial stances.
Democrats, who used Project 2025 in campaign attacks, are warning of its influence on Trump’s agenda and planning policy responses.

Why should Palestinians have all the genocidal fun?
In other news, water is wet.
Nobody should be surprised by this.
Hope everyone is ready to suffer.
I’d say blame it on conservatives. But you can also blame it on the absolute idiots that voted 3rd party, were single issue voters, or abstained from voting. They’re just as much to blame and just as stupid as Trump supporters.
In which state did 3rd-party voters tip the presidential election results there?
I hate trump voters, but I hate the people who know how awful he is but stayed home even more.
I hate self important douche bags who are so used to basking in their own fart clouds that they can’t see how sanctimonious they are and can’t come to terms with the fact that maybe their fart sniffing ideology doesn’t work for all 300M other people in this country.
Especially when they turn around and call their political opposites sanctimonious fart sniffing hypocrites without acknowledging their own hypocrisy. It annoys me.
See the nation is healing already!
Same.
But genocide joe or some shit
“Genocide Joe” passed more meaningful legislation for average Americans then most presidents. But the conservative propaganda machine won and made him seem like the devil incarnate because stupid Americans can’t discern fact from fiction.
stupid Americans can’t discern fact from fiction.
It’s almost as if all the attacks on education over the last 4-7 decades are bearing fruit.
Told and told and told by everyone with half a brain but as usual the nitwits wanna listen to the “entertainer”
Oh so its ok for trump to transition!!! I see how it is…
When you’re a rich prick, they let you do it
He certainly grabbed this country I live in right in the pussy.
Project 2025 is and has always been a right wing conservative wishlist the GOP has maintained since forever.
The idea the conservatives were ever disavowing conservatism was laughably stupid.
Project 2025 was considered unique in detailing how to get rid of checks and balances, ergo terminate democracy.
Heritage Foundation has been working on that since the 1970s, but yeah, it is the most updated and calibrated plan of action.
And why should anyone be surprised?
-
Rumor of shitty thing republicans are planning
-
Republicans deny shitty thing is being planned, that was just (insert republican official here) brought up, claim it’s just the official on their own.
-
Months later republicans are trying to officially enact shitty thing they denied planning.
-
They never came up with any other plan, so they’re just going with what they’ve got. They haven’t been able to govern for more than a decade. They’re so fractured and have done nothing more than shit talk and blame, so no nobody is willing to try to get republicans to form a group capable of planning anything other than who to point fingers at.
They never came up with any other plan
The guy said he had concepts of plans in a debate designed as a platform for candidates to let America know what their plans are.
And then we elected him anyways.
Americans are fucking stupid.
Take politics and politicians out of the equation and you’re still left with stupid fucking Americans. And THAT is why we’re doomed in the long run.
I’m shocked, SHOCKED! … Well, not that shocked.
When an individual tells you they are crazy, It’s best to trust them on that judgement
