IT CAN'T HAPPEN HERE. . . .
By now you’ve heard a lot about Project 2025. If you haven’t here are just a few of the most democracy-threatening proposals from Project 2025, courtesy of Dan Rather.
On child labor: “With parental consent and proper training, certain young adults should be allowed to learn and work in more dangerous occupations.”
On education: “Federal education policy should be limited and, ultimately, the Federal Department of Education should be eliminated.“
On climate change: “Climate-change research should be disbanded … The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) should be broken up and downsized.”
On LGBTQ+ rights: “The next secretary should also reverse the Biden Administration’s focus on ‘LGBTQ+ equity,’ subsidizing single-motherhood, disincentivizing work, and penalizing marriage, replacing such policies with those encouraging marriage, work, motherhood, fatherhood, and nuclear families.”
On families: “Families comprised of a married mother, father, and their children are the foundation of a well-ordered nation and healthy society … The male-female dyad is essential to human nature and … every child has a right to a mother and father.”
Not to mention several highly publicized recommendations on abortion and women’s rights that are an effort to return to America of the 1950s.
The architects of and adherents to Project 2025 want a white, heterosexual Christian nation. The ideals of our 250-year-old form of government, in which majority rules, are anathema to them. They want to inflict their beliefs on everyone, representative democracy be damned.
