A 2nd #Trump admin could #weaponize existing government agencies to dismantle democracy itself.
This article is part of “Project 2025: The Plot Against #America,” a Nation special issue devoted to unpacking the right’s vast & chilling program for a 2nd Trump term.
In Mandate’s chapter on the #DHS, Ken Cuccinelli writes, “Of the utmost urgency is immediately ending CISA’s counter-mis / #disinformation efforts. … #Project2025 document declares that “the entirety of the #CISA#Cybersecurity Advisory Committee should be dismissed on Day One.”
…This is just one way that Project 2025’s cabal of “experts” is scheming to thwart honest discourse about #elections & #democracy.
#StephenMiller, a fmr snr adviser to #Trump [& pure concentrated evil] who still helps guide his thinking on policy, blared out a directive on #FoxNews after a jury found Trump #guilty of falsifying financial records to cover up… his 2016 [#ElectionInterference]. Miller posed a series of questions to Republicans at every level, including local DAs.
“Is every House cmte controlled by #Republicans [ab]using its subpoena power in every way it needs to right now?” #StephenMiller demanded. “Is every Republican DA starting every investigation they need to right now?”
“Every facet of #Republican Party #politics & #power has to be used right now to go toe-to-toe w/Marxism & beat these Communists,” Miller said, using the catchall slurs #Trump allies routinely use against #Democrats.
Istrael has "a very generous stock of nuclear weapons. Hezbollah has a very generous stock of missiles & rockets. That's a lethal combination on both sides of the border.
"And many people, including Benny Morris are very eager for an attack on Iran.
"You're sure Benny, you want to attack Iran? You know what Benny.. you go attack Iran, but..leave the rest of the world out of it. You're a maniac."
Elon Musk Begs Supreme Court to Take Up Trump Twitter Files Fight
They're upset they were forced to give the Jack Smith's prosecution team Trump’s direct messages, message drafts and deleted posts, among other data.
Petition concludes, "If the Court does not grant this petition,
it could be decades (if ever) before it gets another clean
vehicle to resolve the important and recurring questions
presented." #USPol

This is why I keep crowing about #TheStatesProject which is laser focused on these kinds of swing counties where your political contributions (money or activism) have a disproportionate impact. That and collective action through their Giving Circles program.
Future headline: To combat future wokeness, GOP promotes federal book ban ban bans.
"Don't let states tell concerned parents what they can't complain about and which minorities they can't opress" says RNC spokesperson with familial ties to Trump (we at Future News apologize for being unable to narrow down the speaker of this potential quote further).
And by that nonsense, I mean let's applaud Minnesota, Illinois, and Maryland for banning book bans.
Today’s the anniversary of one of the darkest moments in US immigration history, the day that the MS St. Louis, a ship full of German Jewish refugees, was turned back to Germany from Miami. Hundreds of the passengers were killed in Hitler’s death camps.
Today, Joe #Biden blocks asylum seekers from the US
In a shock result, #India Prime Minister #Modi will likely have to seek a coalition government as projections indicate they will likely to fall short of the votes needed for a majority.
This could have significant policy implications in a country which has recently not been our favorite and a regime which has been secretly trying to assassinate dissidents of their regime within the US and other allies’ territory.
