Here's something, on Saturday July 27th at 7pm there will be a ANTI-PROJECT 2025 rally in Times Square. We need these across the country. France and Britain fought back and won. Now it's our turn.

I'm going to mention this in my Friday hope post. We have lots of NYC-area subscribers. I'll bet Stop the Coup is putting it together. We've been working together behind the scenes.

Andra, it would be very useful if you could provide the page numbers in the Project 2025 document when you discuss the right's plans so that people can read it first-hand. This would give your readers a foothold from which to explore the actual plan.

In every post, when I quote from the document, I include the page numbers. I didn't today because it's a more general discussion, but if you drill down to one of the linked posts, you'll see that page numbered references is always how I've done it.

Excellent. I'll pay greater attention to that.

Another genius piece of Project 2025 is that it sounds like propaganda or a conspiracy theory when one makes lists of everything it will prohibit, prosecute, or fundamentally alter. Which is why it is vital for Americans to drill down into this site far enough to see how detailed it is, how they've tried to plan for anything. It's hard to meme or summarize.

Yup. Hiding it in plain sight.

Via the FB group, SWEEP by Red, Wine, and Blue, I've sent several people your way to learn about P2025 and your necessary interpretations of Christian Nationalist "double-speak." I hope your subscriptions are skyrocketing! :)

I think today's post, which acts like a Table of Contents, will be very helpful!

Thank you, Kelley. More people are finding me every day because of you and so many readers like you. I appreciate you.

I believe the more the Project 2025 list (and variations of it) are presented to the public, from a variety of sources, the more likely it will be believed and taken seriously.

If repeated lies become "the truth," then repeated TRUTH should become yet even MORE powerful.

Exactly. Those of us who've been writing about it for months come at it from different perspectives. Taken together, it's a powerful expose and rebuke of fascism.

Thank you Andra. This is perfect! I really like the idea of an Anti 2025 rally. I will look into the organization mentioned 👍

I'm not sure it's them. I don't see it as an event on their website. But I'm sure they're involved. We need more of these around the country. Lisa is right.

Andra, I'm talking about how P2025 will affect veterans to one of my friends on the right. She was in action in the Middle East and is now retired. I asked the other day about where the info on veterans is in the document. Thank you for your response.

Here's my dilemma. She has the document and has read that portion. She's seeing nothing wrong with it. And that may be true. But another veteran friend posted the picture below which DOES sound bad. Do you have any insight on how P2025 will affect veterans, and can you tell me how accurate the picture is in your estimation?

Project 2025's ultimate goal for the VA is to privatize it. Which will mean higher costs for veterans for inferior care. They also want to make it harder for veterans to qualify for benefits and disability. That's true. I will bookmark this to cover in full next week, Kelley. I'm sure a lot of veterans are conservative and don't realize they are voting against themselves and their interests. I will try to keep people like your friend in mind as I write.

I just saw this video today of James Talarico giving a sermon on CN and wanted to share. I’m not religious but I also don’t judge people who are. I don’t know anything about Mr. Talarico so if he’s known to be untrustworthy then please ignore me. but I listened to this and thought “this guy fucking GETS IT.” We need more people saying these things in these ways in these spaces.
