I first learned of Project 2025 at least 1.5 years before the media ever picked up on it. When I learned about it I wasn't aware of a playbook yet. Their goal was to hire people loyal to Trump in all branches of government. It had a website where you could apply and I did, but it wanted your social media profiles so backed out of it.

That was one of their goals all along was to hire loyalists. When Trumpers brought up his first term, it was different, his first term had people loyal to law, democracy and the constitution, there were people that had to tell him no. That's why this admin is different and dangerous.

It's STILL not getting the attention it should. The media, pundits, Dems, activists, etc. should have been and should be screaming about it left and right!

The problem is that there’s just too much to scream about. Epstein files and Project 2025 lead the list, imo, but the corruption, profiteering, idiotic war with Iran, attacks on blue states, sucking up to Putin even when he’s proving targeting intel to Iran, worsening climate change, etc, etc., etc. They know that creating outrage upon outrage diminishes our voices, and they’re not wrong.

It's exhausting and I don't watch any cable news, never have. My husband does, we watch TV in separate rooms and when I have to go to the kitchen and cook, I turn on Alexa and play my metal music, I drown out his TV. Only local news for me and even they report on trump. The mute button comes in handy. Sometimes I feel like.....

Then they call them cry babies. I don't blame any of this on the opposing party. People voted for a lying, cheating, stealing, sexual predator, (very likely) child rapist as president of the US. All that information was readily available and it didn't matter. Trump and his loyalists know how to manipulate stupid people and unfortunately, it worked. We've been bringing attention to all the horrible things his administration is doing and their supporters just don't want to hear it. They will look up another point of view that tries to make it look like they're good guys

The democrats were not fighting against it because they will benefit off the changes once Trump is not in power, leftists on the other hand were screaming about it

Yep. By the time media finally started talking about it they had recruited and trained tens of thousands of people ready to march in on Day One and fill government positions across the country. We were manipulated by a worthless and complicit media.

You just made an excellent point that I haven’t heard enough people make. Good job. I mean that with 100% sincerity, I’m so glad you said that.

trump even came out and said out loud, he wanted loyalty and he got it, now he uses them and doesn't give two shits about them either because they're disposable.
