Is this news? They presented their plan to destroy America, and are going to implement it. What did people expect?
When someone tells you they are a fascist, believe them the first time.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

The "admit" part is the news.
If I make plans for a holiday, put down deposits on hotels, and print an itinerary for my time abroad, it’d be a bit pointless to “admit” I was going on holiday.

Anyone who thought different, who thought "Project 2025" was off the table because Trump said so!: You are idiots who should not be allowed to touch anyhing that could break, and you better not breed.
Unfortunately it always seems to be the dumbest that breed most.
Idiocracy wasn't supposed to be a documentary.
Honestly, I'd take it over what we have now, or are about to get. Those people were at least smart enough to elect the best candidate.
Idiocracy is the most unrealistic movie ever made. President Comacho has a problem, finds the most qualified person to solve it, listens to them (reluctantly) and then dosent take credit. That would never happen in any political reality.
This is why Project 2025 intends to ban abortion and limit contraceptives. They want to proliferate their voter base.

I’m not sure I understand why they’re getting rid of the department of education? Why not change it? Why get rid of it entirely.
If someone could ELI5 that shit, I’d be grateful.
Just like the constitution, states can add to, but not take away from federal department of education regulations. For example, the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) is a law that makes available a free appropriate public education to eligible children with disabilities throughout the nation and ensures special education and related services to those children. Changing laws if difficult and no one wants to go on record voting against special needs. So they can just get rid of the department that enforces laws and say they are leaving up to the states.
As someone who lives in a red state and has a child with special needs, the IDEA law is the only reason my child gets any support in school. If they get rid of the department of education then states like Texas can reduce their special education services even further, so they can build more multi-million dollar high school football stadiums.

They don't want there to be a tool to undo what they've done. If there's no watchdog they can privatize education without worry that losing an election means a quick stop to what's happened. The very first court argument against a democrat run government in 2028 would be that only the Dept of Ed had the statutory power to stop them.
Because stupid masses voted him in. Stupid masses are easier to control.

Are we witnessing the extinction of mankind?
The hastening of it via increased climate change, yes.
Earth is already past the critical point tempurature.... No matter how much we clean up now (which we won't), the earth is already heading down the global warming path
Sure, but we could at least slow it down. Not happening now.
I've been watching since 2016, buddy.
We were already witnessing that.
You had to live inside your own asshole to not know this was always the plan
