Just to be clear, every single person with the right to vote who hasn’t voted for Harris/Walz did this.
President-elect Trump and his allies disavowed the conservative Project 2025 during the election.

Now, his transition team is turning to Project 2025 to help staff the next administration, sources tell @nbcnews.com.

“Gender ideology” is a term of #hate against #trans and #genderfluid individuals.

Call it out every time you see or hear it.
With its hateful rhetoric, the right seeks to cast gender identity not as something you are, but as something dangerous that you believe. We aren’t against trans people, just their ideology.

Yet the end goal is the same: to wipe out transness itself. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
How the right uses "gender ideology" to blame trans people for everything
MAGA learned from global autocrats the language needed to push fear.

I’m sure this has nothing to do with Collison’s sudden interest in government policy
One of the DOGE teens met up with Patrick Collison: ("Farritor... met Patrick Collison, who co-founded Stripe Inc., and David Holz, who founded Midjourney. "What's cool is I go there, and all these people care about me.")
Equal opportunity virgin-hunting too.

The DOGE teen who hand-deleted USAID payments cited Tyler Cowen as a massive influence, and loved being embraced as “Talent” in Tyler’s Network State billionaire circles.

Who cares what this lad thinks? Obviously a billionaire capitalist is gonna complain about regulations. We are under no obligation to listen to him at all. He’s already hoarding billions of euro of wealth to himself. I don’t think he particularly cares about what’s best for anyone other than himself
A briefing for the Taoiseach ahead of a 'fireside chat' with Stripe warned the company’s co-founder billionaire John Collison was likely to be critical of Ireland’s 'red tape'.

The COP30 final decision, which included some tangible things like an increase in money to help developing nations adapt to climate change, fell far short of many delegates’ expectations. It didn’t mention the words “fossil fuels,” much less include a timeline to reduce their use.
Many hoped UN climate talks in Brazil would be historic. They may be remembered as a flop
For years, Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, along with many climate experts, had high hopes for the U.N. climate talks that just finished in Brazil.
