@BreakingPoints Hi, Community. I hope your weekend is going well. I've been struggling with a thought that's bothered me.
@SaagarEnjeti downplayed Project 2025 for months. Hand waving it away every time it came up in conversation. Trump says he doesn't know about Project 2025 or anyone affiliated with it; meanwhile, it's filled with members of his then-former staff and people in his orbit.
Fast forward to today, and it's hard to reconcile Saagar's analysis with our current reality. Project 2025 is being enacted before our eyes: Russ Vought is head of OBM, was in the running for Chief of Staff, and there's chaos in federal spending and employment. Birthright citizenship is up for grabs, and if that amendment isn't safe, which others are vulnerable? Sure, it has to go through the courts, but iykyk. I could keep going, but you get the point.
Saagar used to sit on the Board of Advisors with an organization called American Moment with his buddy, JD Vance. When I initially looked on the site, both were actively on the Board but are now Board Emeritus. In June 2022, the American Movement joined the Heritage Foundation in their "Heritage 2025 Presidential Transition Project." You can find an achieved blurb on their website, though there's not as much information as there used to be when I first visited the site some time ago. Saagar and Vance were listed as active board members at the time if memory serves.
I don't have more than that; the potential implications are significant. I'm not sure what it means, but maybe someone with more time on their hands can do the digging if there's digging to be done. This is probably nothing at all, but I am aware that the shows' hosts often disclose conflicting relationships and such.
This would seem like a conflict.
Maybe I'm just a paranoid clown, and I hope so, but I've been thinking about this off and on for a long time.
Am I just being conspiratorial? Am I missing something?

Sorry Saagar... "We" don't get to have a "say" ... per se... regarding how our taxes are used [short of elections].
I would L O V E to assign all my taxes to ONLY education and NOTHING to military weapons. But, I know that would be a debilitating administerial hellscape.
Hola All you Great BPr's
Just spit balling, I believe the tariffs are just a way to generate money to offset the Huge tax break for the wealthy.
Basically make all of us pay in our everyday life to cover the migration of money to the top 10%
As always I oppose the Political Elites, Global Corporations, and Robber Barron profiteers,
And
Support all other Americans
Thoughts, am I missing something
