Ugh. Not a fan of podcasts for articles. I’ll check back when there’s a transcript.
Anyway, although I haven’t read Project 2025, from what I have heard, it’s all very familiar Republican talking points. They’ve been pushing towards strict constitutionalism where anything not in the constitution is given to the states - such as dept of ed which Regan ran his campaign in opposition of. “Welfare and education are two functions that should be primarily carried out at the state and local levels.” https://archive.is/xW7RI
I’m definitely interested in reading more about the “roots”.
I think the interesting thing about project 2025 is how specific they get over the plans. It's not just what they want to do, it's a plan for how to do it.
Master Plan podcast traces this plot from Nixon era forward.
This have any overlap with the findings from Democracy in Chains?
