Project 2025-What Is It, Really?

Is this truly something that our Democracy needs? Is this the end of Democracy and our Constitution? This is EXACTLY what our vote is all about in November!!

It’s not 1980. In 2023, the game has changed. The long march of cultural Marxism through our institutions has come to pass. The federal government is a behemoth, weaponized against American citizens and conservative values, with freedom and liberty under siege as never before. The task at hand to reverse this tide and restore our Republic to its original moorings is too great for any one conservative policy shop to spearhead. It requires the collective action of our movement. With the quickening approach of January 2025, we have two years and one chance to get it right.

Project 2025 is more than 50 (and growing) of the nation’s leading conservative organizations joining forces to prepare and seize the day. The axiom goes “personnel is policy,” and we need a new generation of Americans to answer the call and come to serve. This book is functionally an invitation for you the reader—Mr. Smith, Mrs. Smith, and Ms. Smith—to come to Washington or support those who can. Our goal is to assemble an army of aligned, vetted, trained, and prepared conservatives to go to work on Day One to deconstruct the Administrative State.

The project is built on four pillars.

Pillar I—this volume—puts in one place a consensus view of how major federal agencies must be governed and where disagreement exists brackets out these differences for the next President to choose a path.

Pillar II is a personnel database that allows candidates to build their own professional profiles and our coalition members to review and voice their recommendations. These recommendations will then be collated and shared with the President-elect’s team, greatly streamlining the appointment process.

Pillar III is the Presidential Administration Academy, an online educational system taught by experts from our coalition. For the newcomer, this will explain how the government functions and how to function in government. For the experienced, we will host in-person seminars with advanced training and set the bar for what is expected of senior leadership.

In Pillar IV—the Playbook—we are forming agency teams and drafting transition plans to move out upon the President’s utterance of “so help me God.”

As Americans living at the approach of our nation’s 250th birthday, we have been given much. As conservatives, we are as much required to steward this precious heritage for the next generation. On behalf of our coalition partners, we thank you and invite you to come join with us at project2025.org.

Q & A for Project 2025

This section I have accumulated a few questions with the answers which, I will tell you for full disclosure, are given by experts that are a lot smarter with this legal mumbo-jumbo than I am.

A. What are the main points of Project 2025?

Then Project 2025 foresees reclassifying thousands of civil service employees by executive order so they can be fired and replaced with the corporations' loyal troops. From there, the plan is to bulldoze the protections US workers have built up over one hundred years of determination, sacrifice, and unity. (https://jacobin.com/2024/07/project-2025-anti-union-donald-trump#:~:text=Then%20Project%202025%20foresees%20reclassifying,determination%2C%20sacrifice%2C%20and%20unity.)

B. What are the four pillars of Project 2025?

Project 2025 is a proposed presidential transition project that is composed of four pillars: a policy guide for the next presidential administration; a LinkedIn-style database of personnel who could serve in the next administration; training for that pool of candidates dubbed the "Presidential Administration Academy;" (https://www.cbsnews.com/news/what-is-project-2025-trump-conservative-blueprint-heritage-foundation/#:~:text=Project%202025%20is%20a%20proposed,the%20%22Presidential%20Administration%20Academy%3B%22)

C. How does Project 2025 affect education?

H. What are the 4 strategic pillars?
