🔥 US Project 2025 push to dismantle the EU

The Heritage Foundation held a private workshop on it.

There's a reason why the US right-wing Heritage Foundation (Project 2025 authors) wants to break up the EU team...

…it's a rival to Trump’s power in trade, standards and values.

I..mean.. so far they've only emboldened Europe to stand together? Do they think that pushing against Europe will result in the dissolution of the EU..?

We have been screaming about this since before Brexit. We have traitors in plain sight in the U.K.

The Eu should return the favour and give some thought into stymying H25

Heritage/Atlas were the funders of what was the 'anti-lockdown' lot, that's where they went into overdrive and started seeding anti-establishment ideology. That happened real fast too. Check it out, ARC is among Alliance Defending Freedom's number.

They didn't get far in all honesty , they got a few hundred people at marches and that was about it, Trying american "cultural" tactics on Europeans doesn't really work in the same way given the immensely different values.

martandelus.bsky.social•4 days ago

Yeah, it didn't seem to properly get a foothold over there, the odd scuffles with the police happened in a few places, but it didn't persist for all of that long. it's more how fast the idea of kicking off got about which i found surprising at first.

robeagle.bsky.social•4 days ago

Even the anti-Immigration thugs was a few hundred to in many cities 100,000+ counter protests, Partly because the violence is abhorrent and most regardless on Opinion of Migration will accept violence toward ANY persons.

martandelus.bsky.social•4 days ago

They seem to try the same tactics most of the time, they don't like being outnumbered though. I'm glad they god chased off. They're so full of hate. I just wish it would stop, it's causing so much harm to societies around the world.

robeagle.bsky.social•4 days ago

It's actually causing people to unite together for once (a rarity in Britain!) against them, We all complain about one another but when something truly revolting happens; We do tend to band together.

martandelus.bsky.social•4 days ago

So then, ok. We got media and social media astroturfing through the same sort of mediums, same occuring in Europe too, so like AfD et al. They're doing the same thing, spewing out propaganda and twisting populations into pretzels. It's Orban's playbook.

martandelus.bsky.social•4 days ago

I hope the EU stays strong, these tools want domination at all costs and to make their targets subservient to a larger power.

poodle19631.bsky.social•4 days ago

And since Trump is a Russian asset, it stands that both Putin and Trump want the EU to fail, so that Russia can rule further afield.

tompipersson.bsky.social•4 days ago

Have a read at "The Road to Unfreedom", Timothy Snyder.

This is the underpinning of Putin's plan - make everywhere like his foul version of Russia, then protest and a desire for something better just disappears.

havelok.bsky.social•4 days ago

Europe needs to unite even more strongly. There are threats from the west as well as the east now.

dondons.bsky.social•4 days ago

I think we’re about to become owned. The emperor will claim us and any talk of EU solidarity will be seen as an act of aggression.

It’s fucking crazy how the right of US politics has turned on what is, in effect, a triumph of trade over totalitarianism and have taken a Stalinist zeal to the far-right.

Bang on - The EU protects us plebs. Imperfectly, haltingly & at some expense. BUT - & mine is a big but - if any are under the illusion that Dictatorial Trumponomics will make our air/water cleaner, food/housing/education/healthcare safer/better/cheaper, think on.

We’ll die. They’ll get richer

Why don’t they just stick to their isolationist agenda and let us look after ourselves? They’re no longer a country we should want to be connected with at any level.

They only know how to break things, especially stuff that looks like well-regulated piggy-banks.

catiomiles.bsky.social•4 days ago

They dislike the € replacing the $

They basically can just print $ which other countries are buying, making America richer by just printing.

katiecannon.bsky.social•4 days ago

I mean, the eurozone could print Eurobonds as a safe asset

catiomiles.bsky.social•4 days ago

That’s already happening

But currently the $ represents 60% of international reserves vs 20% for €

Also commodities are priced in $ with contracts in $ in international markets, etc

katiecannon.bsky.social•4 days ago

The ECB is issuing Eurobonds?

catiomiles.bsky.social•4 days ago

Any organisation and government can issue Eurobonds.

The ECB can buy / sell them as part of their monetary policy.

Which Tory MP’s past & present have been speakers at The Heritage Foundation & still have very close ties? I think the British people deserve to know which of them would like us to share the same fate as 🇺🇸

tc-callis.bsky.social•4 days ago

Dig a little deeper and you will find it's Trump's owner, Putain, that wants to dismantle the EU. The EU stands in the way of his re-creation of the USSR.

davidnice.bsky.social•4 days ago

Infinitely superior, you mean, in standards and values. As day to night.

Time for the Heritage Foundation to be banned in Europe and the UK and possibly be declared a terrorist organisation will all its assets in Europe seized?

mamaarth.bsky.social•4 days ago

Absolutely.

chainmailedheart.bsky.social•1 day ago

Good idea.

gnickod.bsky.social•4 days ago

There are restaurants in Paris older than the US Constitution. In a wonderful bit of symmetry le Procope opened in 1686. The Constitution was written in 1787. I can assure you that the standards of the former are far superior to those of the latter.

5eggsandham84.bsky.social•4 days ago

The US doesn’t have any control of the EU. That’s the European Union. We could leave NATO which would arguably weaken it, but it would exist. We aren’t even part of the EU though so how would we dismantle it?

grye01.bsky.social•4 days ago

It's naive to think like that, over time disinformation, buying votes and ppl can turn any country into shit unless their government takes measures to prevent it.

5eggsandham84.bsky.social•3 days ago

All Trump has done is piss off Europe so they have moved away from us. And they should. I’m not naive. The Trump administration is incompetent at best. Look at the security breach on signal. Need I say more? They do not have the finesse to influence a fly. And I’m speaking of my own government.

grye01.bsky.social•3 days ago

They sure have. We are angry in Europe over your incompetent government, who not only threaten us and talking shit about us, but also manages to fuck up everyone's economy, not to mention how they treat Ukraine.. I know you might not be to blame but I still do blame all of you for allowing this.

5eggsandham84.bsky.social•1 day ago

I am sorry and I take part in what I can in a very red state that I live in to undo what this administration is corrupting. I’m not even a democrat and I’m not a republican. I’m an independent. I’m a little left of center. I hated Trump b4 he was elected. I knew what he was b/c I wasn’t stupid.

5eggsandham84.bsky.social•1 day ago

I understand. I did my part. I voted a straight democrat ballot. I did not vote for what we have. I was as loud as I could be and my entire household voted against this. I did everything in my power to influence as many people around me as I could to vote against this. I’ll still take your blame.

chainmailedheart.bsky.social•1 day ago

The Trump administration is incompetent.
The people behind it, and behind project 2025, not as much, overall.

The latter suffers greatly from grandiosity, but they play the long game.

weemommy.bsky.social•4 days ago

I think we’re over the hurt that they hate Europe in general and the EU in particular and steeling our UK feelings for the hate that’s coming for us next. Once the disbelief dissolves that it’s AMERICA acting like this we can gird our loins and retaliate.

kaybell27.bsky.social•4 days ago

I'm not sure they are succeeding, it appears to be working against them. The EU is gaining strength as it unites, opposing Russia and also the US. It gains further strength from nations also threatened by the US, the right are providing election success for those opposing the right wing hate.

Remember Robert Mercer? His daughter Rebekah is a Heritage foundation trustee since 2014.

expected000.bsky.social•4 days ago

"The Heritage Foundation was created in 1973 by Joseph Coors, Paul Weyrich and Edwin Feulner. "

Less modesty, please

Ed Feulner was a former intern at our very own IEA. He boasted of taking the 'IEA method' into Heritage when he joined them

https://findingaids.loc.gov/db/search/xq/searchMfer02.xq?_id=loc.mss.eadmss.ms018024&_faSection=overview&_faSubsection=did&_dmdid=d33100e6&_q=ms018024&_type=fa_id&_displayTerm=ms018024

expected000.bsky.social•4 days ago

Feulner had worked with John A Lincoln and the Eugenicist Ralph Harris at the IEA

Lincoln and Harris, even back in the 1960's, had been staunch publicists decrying "European Unity" of any sort

How about you take Hungary and the rest of us stay together in EU?

beefrier.bsky.social•4 days ago

No, we need to keep Hungary within. The plan is to dismantle, and they will do this one country at the time. First Hungary, next idk, Slovakia. The plan is to split us up, we need to fix Hungary rather than push them away. And we need UK back.

cttagc.bsky.social•4 days ago

It's nice to have ten toes on your feet and naturally one would prefer to keep them. But when one catches gangrene, you have to amputate or risk losing more.

That said, if you have a plan to fix Hungary, let's hear it.

beefrier.bsky.social•4 days ago

I don't have a plan. Dismantling EU because of Hungary being an arse is not the answer. It would be better if EU starts with demands and rewards. Time will tell if Hungary will return into a more constructive member, but Italy has a rightwing leader, should they go to? Then Bannon+ gets their way.

ians.chat•4 days ago

I've been saying for aeons - Trump hates the EU because 27 countries as one is a pretty strong competitor on the global market than 27 countries competing against each other with different aims and goals.
