🚨 Trump is pushing Project 2025—a terrifying blueprint for authoritarian rule.
He denied it during his campaign & now Republicans are claiming a “mandate” to impose it. But he got
< 50% of the vote. There is NO mandate.
Here’s why & how we MUST stop it: 🧵

He’ll probably tell even more during his second
They’re going to be able to do whatever they want.
Unlike our Dems who never seem to do anything when they have full control ….
It’s maddening!!!!!
Only 4% of people approved of Project 2025, most didn’t know about it, and most Trump voters have blind faith in him
(hopefully persuadable to reject others)

Trump’s Project 2025 is a blueprint for authoritarian rule—and Republicans are pushing it with no mandate.
Call or email Congress NOW to demand they reject this dangerous agenda. Use this script to make your voice heard:
Democracy needs YOU. 📞✉️
🚨 Trump & the GOP are fast-tracking the terrifying Project 2025 agenda—the blueprint for an authoritarian takeover. If you’re not paying attention, now is the time. Let’s break down why this is so dangerous and how we can fight back.
First, what is Project 2025?
It’s a hyper-conservative plan to dismantle federal protections, gut civil rights, strip workers’ protections, impose far-right ideologies, and even eliminate federal agencies like the Department of Education.
And Trump is using it as his playbook.
Trump’s campaign hid the agenda. He even called Project 2025 “ridiculous and abysmal” to avoid scrutiny. But behind the scenes, his allies like Russ Vought, Brendan Carr, and Tom Homan were quietly preparing to enforce it. Now, they hold key positions in his administration.
This isn’t just bad policy—it’s a direct assault on democracy.
➡️ Turning federal agencies into tools for partisan loyalty
➡️ Expanding surveillance & silencing dissent
➡️ Defunding public schools & undermining special needs education
➡️ Gutting Medicaid through block grants
Let’s talk Russ Vought:
He’s Trump’s former OMB director and a Project 2025 co-author. Vought openly said the US is in a “post-constitutional” era—claiming Trump can cut federal spending or even turn the military on protestors without Congress’ approval.
This is fascism in action.
And then there’s Tom Homan, tapped as Trump’s “border czar.”
Homan is responsible for the family separation policy, where children were forcibly taken from their parents. He’s shown zero remorse, saying, “I don’t give a sh*t” when asked about lawsuits over his actions.
you're dealing with a group that insists on alternate facts as truth. so as far as they're concerned, they have a mandate, period.
instead of pointing out their lies, we have to dig in and fight everything.
we have to fight.
call it a holding action or a fighting retreat to a fallback position or whatever you like. stall, object, file law suits, whatever.
the point is FIGHT
Only 4% of people approved of Project 2025, most didn’t know about it, and most Trump voters have blind faith in him
He said he hadn't read it and that he wouldn't and he's keeping his promise
I've said all along that this is the #HeritageFoundationAdministration and it's shaping up just as they planned
Stephen Miller and Tom Homan were advisors to it
Trump lies about everything
His name is mentioned in it 312 times, and over 200 former Trump officials worked on it
Be informed (straight from the horse's mouth).
Make check-marks and notes as it's put into action.
Include page numbers when quoting.
Buy popcorn in bulk.
Get yourself some sand.
Focus on solutions.
Into Action!🖖
