My Notes: WHAT "Project 2025" IS AND WHAT IT IS NOT: Donald Trump's Statements on Project 2025: https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/112765952710871414 https://www.dansher.com/MAGA/2025_MFL_DJT_stmt.jpg https://x.com/BidensWins/status/1811410983081976309 [TDS content] The "Project 2025" .pdf file was produced by the conservative Heritage Foundation, definitely _not_ the 0'Biden crime clan. Further below is a helpful Index I have made to its content. The DEMs, RINOs, and Fake News are lamblasting Project 2025 all over the TV & internet waves. Patriots need something to counter all the mis- & dis-information they are spouting. The 2025_MFL_fyi.txt file is the antidote. Just post the link below to it on all your own social media, emails, etc. I recommend you download both the .txt and .pdf files and ship the .txt file around to your friends, family, and fellow Patriots. Here are the links to them, on my secure dansher.com web server: https://www.dansher.com/MAGA/2025_MFL_fyi.txt https://www.dansher.com/MAGA/2025_MandateForLeadership_FULL.pdf Project 2025 exposes the monumental width and depth of the myriad (and often secret) Offices of the Federal Bureacracy. This documentation of Project 2025 contents was also monumental. I got interested in "Project 2025" when - in July 2024 - continual bleating, mewling, and bashing from the Democrat Party, RINOs, and the Mainsewer [Fake] News Media made me curious. If they're agin' it then I'm fer it !! The dual page-numbering indexes are unfortunate yet unavoidable: DOC PAGE# Go-to page numbers as shown upon the Document itself. PDF PAGE: As numbered by my own .pdf reader (Firefox). Enter a DOC PAGE# into your .pdf browser page field and it will go there. An entry like "560 593" is only 1 page, NOT a range of pages. Many sub headings are shown below, but not all, due to space considerations. The choice of which was my own. Suggestions for other headings to be in- or ex-cluded go here: daniel@dansher.com ControlF in your .pdf browser lets you enter any sub heading or string [e.g., OGC or Climate Change] into its string-search field and it will go there. In my political vocabulary, "Progressive/Leftists" comprise nearly 100% of the Democrat (DEM) Party and 100% of the RINOs in the Republican (REP) Party. REP RINOs are an effective extension of the DEM Party. Such P/L persons seem dedicated to persuing broad wokeism and Global [UN] objectives rather than promote patriotic America-First policies. "Liberals" can be patriotic American citizens advocating for less yet more accountable government. Liberals can be socially liberal, but fiscally conservative. Unfortunately, the word "progressive" is frequently and favorably used within the file documented below: 2025_MandateForLeadership_FULL.pdf For example (DOC PAGE# 71:) "...progressives have sought a system that could effectively select, train, reward, and guard from partisan influence the neutral scientific experts they believe are required to staff the national government and run the administrative state." Be aware of this disconnect.
