…Though #Trump would love few things more than never hearing the term “#Project2025” again, there’s a case to be made for paying close attention to what #Heritage & the project do this #election & beyond. If you’re #liberal, you should work to understand what the other side is doing. If you’re #conservative, you should know what’s being said in your name.

But some parts of #Project2025 go beyond #Trump’s stated plans, like broader restrictions on #abortion #access, or they are more blunt about exactly what could happen if a #conservative wins.
And many other parts still are not issues Trump has weighed in on, where he may default to what the conservative movement wants [if only cuz he’s dumb & lazy].

“In 2020, lack of conservative participation was one factor in an undercount in some areas of the country, affecting representation of certain states,” #Project2025 claims, echoing a sentiment #Heritage has elevated before.
Why it matters
Many of the project’s ideas are more or less #conservative consensus – they align w/what #Trump has said & done in the past on the topic & they represent what could happen if he wins again.

That #conservative agenda includes adding a #citizenship question, something #Trump tried to do for the 2020 #census but was blocked by the #SCOTUS [yes even this SCOTUS]. #Project2025 says “any successful conservative Administration must include a citizenship question in the census”.

Given its #influence, #Project2025 suggests an incoming #conservative president needs to install more #PoliticalAppointees specifically to the #census bureau & ensure #ideologically aligned career employees are “immediately put in place to execute a conservative agenda”. The next census isn’t until 2030, but plans for it are already under way.

The #census helps decide how federal #resources should be allocated to #communities, but, for our purposes here, it’s most relevant that census data is used to decide how to divvy up seats in the #US #House & make #ElectoralMaps during decennial #redistricting done by states. The census can alter the balance of #power in statehouses & in #Congress.

#NewYorkTimes doesn’t mention race until 8th ¶, #WashingtonPost got there in the 6th ¶. Both should have it in the lede

#Tennessee doesn’t expel #GloriaJohnson. They did expel #JustinJones. Let’s see if they expel #JustinPearson, but first reaction, Johnson is WHITE. Jones is not. Pretty obvious why the outcomes were different. They did the SAME THING. Period.

In a highly politicized vote, the #Republican-led chamber criticized Omar’s statements about Israel, exacting #retribution for the removal of #GOP members when #Democrats held the majority.
