Hidden-camera video shows Project 2025 co-author discussing his secret work preparing for a second Trump term

Trump has publicly rejected Project 2025 as Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign has sought to tie him to some of the plan’s most extreme proposals. But in private, Vought said that those disavowals were merely “graduate-level politics.”

Project 2025 playbook: “Don’t leave behind a paper trail for watchdogs to discover.”

Some hero from the Centre for Climate Reporting with a hidden camera: “Challenge accepted. Text doesn’t go viral anyway.”

They want to be a “shadow government” but they’re so excited about all the evil they’re doing they’re hot to get interviews to talk about it.

The people who run our world are really, really fucking stupid.

I can’t believe the guy’s name is Vought.

Homelander on ‘The Boys’ Was Always Meant To Be Donald Trump — But Antony Starr Doesn’t Love It

Homelander on ‘The Boys’ Was Always Meant To Be Donald Trump

The comic series was released in 2006 and concluded in 2012, so that’s doubtful. He was supposed to be the synthesis between European White Nationalism and American Exceptionalism, both of which predate Trump by centuries.

Starr straight out rejects the notion that the character is just Trump with powers, and tries to get back to why this character is the product of his conditions rather than just a reflection of an IRL ideological peer.

The through line from this abused and exploited child to an emotionally starved and psychotically included adult is what makes the character fun.

Trump has been an influence on fictional bad guys going back to the 80s. Biff from Back to the Future as an example. Idk about “The Boys” but thought we could have some back and forth with it until someone posted some actual facts.

Good thing we’re just going to let them do it.

Vote, get involved

Find how to register to vote for where you are

Find opportunities to volunteer around you

NocturnalMorning ,

Already registered to vote. I live in a county that’s been pretty carved up to dilute the democratic vote, but I’ll be doing so nonetheless.

Note that the congressional maps don’t impact senate and presidential races* - only house and local races

See a lot of people claim it as a reason for apathy, but it’s worth remembering there’s still a lot of potentially winnable fights even in gerrymandered districts

  • maine and nebraska are exceptions for presidential races due to splitting some of their electoral votes

Vought said his group, the Center for Renewing America, was secretly drafting hundreds of executive orders, regulations, and memos that would lay the groundwork for rapid action on Trump’s plans if he wins, describing his work as creating “shadow” agencies.

FUCKING LITERALLY every accusation is a fucking confession with these fucking people.

How can anyone who claims to be fucking religious think God is going to forgive all this lying and scheming? Do they think that their Lord stops watching when they’re doing bad things? Or that he’s okay with them doing bad things in his name? It’s fucking bonkers.

But I guess you’d have to be fucking bonkers to believe any of that bullshit anyway.

Seriously though, spread this shit like wildfire.

Classic dark triad behavior. The ends will always justify the means as far as these ghouls are concerned

LoL! They can just ask for forgiveness.

/S of course

AlexanderESmith ,

Because God doesn't like lying and scheming... unless it's in his (loosly defined, unprovable, constantly shifting) design.

They're morally right and you're morally wrong. Why? Because they say so.

@SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

You’re right, I forgot. Christianity comes with an endless “get out of jail free” card by asking forgiveness from Jesus. All you gotta do is let Jesus into your heart and boom bam thank you ma’am all your endless fuckups and unwillingness to be a better person are forgiven! Surely you’ll somehow be a better person in heaven!

RattlerSix ,

I’ve watched a lot of religious arguments and debates and, let me tell you, the religious have no problem whatsoever with lying. I mean, sometimes they’re wrong, sometimes they have a weird interpretation, but they also tell bold faced lies that are easily disproven. They do it often and even when proven to be a lie, they just keep saying it for years.

SnotFlickerman ,
@SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Hmm, I wonder if people should be judging them based on their actions instead of their professed religion.

AreaKode ,

I’m a better Christian than most Christians. And I don’t even believe in a Sky Daddy!

iAmTheTot ,

FYI, it’s “bald faced”. It comes from “barefaced”, as in, having nothing to hide behind. A bare/bald face has no hair to hide behind, so it is out in the open.

pearsaltchocolatebar ,

Lol, those religious people have never actually read their religious texts. They just belive whatever their cult leader says.

It’s different when they do it because they are the Heroic PCs rather than the Villainous NPCs.

They’re going to do the based trad MAGA reforms, not the Soy Woke Chinese Communism.

How can anyone who claims to be fucking religious think God is going to forgive all this lying and scheming?

Idk about other Christians, but for Catholics you can just say, "oops, my bad," and do penance and you're good. God's like, oh well, you asked for forgiveness so that must mean you're like, super sorry. No Hell for you, because you're baptized and awesome.

The New Testament is like one massive cope after all the rules and violence in the Old Testament. At least from what I was taught in school; I don't read that shit as an adult.

The God stuff is just used to control the masses and the useful idiots. No one in the upper echelons, including those of the Vatican, believes any of that. If they did, they would out and shame pedophiles with extreme prejudice. The God delusion is used to attain and maintain power and access to resources. Nothing more.

Edit: I understand some people earnestly need their faith, so that’s why I think religion should just be a private thing. But religion and religious belief of any kind needs to removed from serious public discourse and policymaking. Enough is enough.
