NEW: In October, we published secret recordings of Russell Vought discussing plans to eviscerate entire agencies and decimate the morale of federal workers if Trump won a second term.

The Billionaire Class can never allow election of Democrats to the WH or majority in Congress. Billionaire “progress” & profits under Trump would be immediately reversed & taxed. Dictatorship must be perpetuated & all that’s left after destroying Fed institutions, courts & the press.
They both know only
Chaos & Destruction!
Too bad that so many people didn't even take it seriously enough to get off their butts and vote
All his power is positional. If he gets his wish and collapses society, he’ll be eating out of a fucking garbage can.
Completely worthless human being.
If they take action at all. We are reaping the cost of our own inaction and complacency.
I know he is from Heritage, but what is gained by going after IMLS or USIP etc?
These aren't the heavy hitters in the Federal Govt.
These are small independent agencies mostly staffed by GOP aligned people.
They don’t believe in democracy, fairness, justice, or equality; and want to write these values out of our national identity and agenda.
Despite all the dire pre election warnings about Prj 2025, clearly Dems didn't take it seriously
Well, DUH!
So 🙏🏼💙🙏🏼💙🙏🏼
1. Rich corporations replace government agencies.
2. Oligarch class and religious right can impose control over the population.
Basically, they want to own a giant ranch, where the people are the cattle.
"the budget bill does much more lasting damage than cutting critical programs. In effect, it gives the White House a “blank check” over how taxpayer dollars are spent"

p.s. This was the article that finally jump-started my own modest contribution to ProPublica, and every passing day I am more pleased with the decision to do so.
America is fast becoming AmeriKKKa.
FAFO. 🤬
Almost none had any relevant credentials!
Almost none had relevant experience!
Almost All had shady backgrounds!
It’s a MOBSTER Crew is all.
Please donate rather than be incessantly whining abt corporate media.
What kind of shithole country treats Veterans like this?
Vought, Trump, Musk are the villains.
The federal workers are the heroes.
Federal workers run stuff we want, pay taxes, put money into their local economy, and vote.
Firing them will wreck services and lives, tank the economy, and cost taxpayers more in private 'consultants'.
There will be consequences.
The GOP should be terrified.
"it's all good. Way to go Vought!
"We can have debates about what you want, "I want this, I want that, let's meet somewhere in the middle", that's politics. When your politics become WHO YOU ARE, we can't debate that."

It's hopeless to look back, I guess. We're probably all screwed from now on.
Other than ProP, our US media gets an "F".
It’s time for rapists to be put into the ground.
Ignorance is not bliss.
There is much worse to come under Vought's full Project 2025 Mandate. The number in progress increases every week
💥 300 Total 100 Done 46 In Progress 💥

Clear evidence that the demented orange buffoon lied about the hugely unpopular Project 2025 to his voters

The Golden Era.
An Administration of grifters and thieves.

Musk blundered but he was ready for the lousy job as he is a proven sociopath.
Are the Dems going to learn from this and make the necessary inclusive changes, or are they going to follow characters like Chuck Schumer over the cliff?
A lot of voters hated Project 2025 and voted for Trump anyway.
Every day, it becomes more and more clear to me where we are headed, and how awful it will be for everyone but a handful of billionares.
It's the very poor and uneducated and the richest authoritarian minded billionaires who want this IMO.
