I asked the White House about Trump's agenda aligning w/ Project 2025. Press Sec Karoline Leavitt said “This is a stupid story to write and nobody cares."

@maya4rights.bsky.social said they don't want to acknowledge it but Project 2025 "is what Trumpism represents."

Whether it's his plan or not, Trump's policies so far closely align with Project 2025
One prominent community tracking project claims President Trump has already implemented more than 40% of Project 2025's recommendations.

I think it’s very funny that one of the go-to defenses for Trump’s very stupid version of mercantilism is “he’s had these views for forty years.” Oh well, then we absolutely *gotta* let him wreck the global economy if he’s believed this nonsense for long enough.

Donald Trump, JD Vance, and Elon Musk have made clear who they are. Only fools - or Kremlin tools - would abandon NATO, side with Russia, and demand Ukraine surrender in the face of Putin’s brutal aggression.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Dems should call for immediate hearings on what caused tonight’s plane crash, including the impact of the removal of FAA safety protocols and personnel.
Trump Guts Key Aviation Safety Committee, Fires Heads Of TSA, Coast Guard
The committee will technically continue to exist, but it won't have any members to carry out the work of examining safety issues at airlines and airports.

Until I’m proven wrong, I’ve concluded that Americans are meaner, dumber, and more gullible than I’d hoped.

Just so we’re clear what just happened:

Republicans tore apart their funding agreement with Democrats after Elon Musk told them to.

They created a new bill that defunded child cancer research.

And then they failed to pass that bill too.

Anyone else find it disturbing that two billionaires, Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, were on Capitol Hill leading the call to cut social security? If not from the blood and sweat of working class Americans, how else are these greed-driven cunts going to pay for their tax cuts?

This is why it’s important to remain engaged so we can be a check on Trump’s worst impulses.

Pete Buttigieg just outlined the long term benefits of President Biden’s infrastructure legislation that almost all Republicans voted against. Remember that when they all take credit for the improvements in their states in the coming years.
