PROJECT 2025

Some people claiming to be Conservative Christians have drawn up a rather startling proposal for major changes in the US, should such people win through to a strong government. It's called PROJECT 2025. I can show their introduction on their website but not much more; but folks have published more details on Wiki. Here we go............................:-

PROJECT 2025
It is not enough for conservatives to win elections. If we are going to rescue the country from the grip of the radical Left, we need both a governing agenda and the right people in place, ready to carry this agenda out on Day One of the next conservative Administration.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_2025
Project 2025 envisions widespread changes across the government, particularly economic and social policies and the role of the federal government and its agencies. The plan proposes slashing funding for the Department of Justice (DOJ), dismantling the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and Department of Homeland Security (DHS), sharply reducing environmental and climate change regulations to favor fossil fuel production, eliminating the Department of Commerce, and ending the independence of federal agencies such as the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Federal Trade Commission (FTC).[8][9] The blueprint seeks to institute tax cuts,[10] though its writers disagree on the wisdom of protectionism.[11] Project 2025 recommends abolishing the Department of Education, whose programs would be either transferred to other agencies, or terminated.[12][13] Funding for climate research would be cut while the National Institutes of Health (NIH) would be reformed along conservative principles.[14][15] The Project urges government to explicitly reject abortion as health care[16][17] and eliminate the Affordable Care Act's coverage of emergency contraception.[18] The Project seeks to infuse the government with elements of Christianity.[19][20] It proposes criminalizing pornography,[21] removing legal protections against discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity,[21][22] and terminating diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs,[4][22] as well as affirmative action.[23]
Project contributor Jeffrey Clark advises the future president to immediately deploy the military for domestic law enforcement and direct the DOJ to pursue Donald Trump's adversaries by invoking the Insurrection Act of 1807.[24][25] The Project recommends the arrest, detention, and deportation of undocumented immigrants.[26] It promotes capital punishment and the speedy "finality" of such sentences.[27] Project director Paul Dans, explained that Project 2025 is "systematically preparing to march into office and bring a new army, aligned, trained, and essentially weaponized conservatives ready to do battle against the deep state."[28][29] Dans admitted it was "counterintuitive" to recruit so many to join the government to shrink it, but pointed out the need for a future president to "regain control" of the government.[4] Although the project cannot by law promote a specific presidential candidate, many contributors have close ties to Trump and his 2024 campaign.[6][30]

Are democrats not allowed to think and speak for themselves in red states or are democrats in red states reds also?
I was explaining what a red state is, since you said you didn't know. A red state means a red majority.
Do those who slander red states not know there are millions of democrats in those states?

That is indeed known, just as it's known that there are millions of red voters in blue states. And it's the red/blue dichotomy which has been forced upon us and is keeping us pitted against each other.

Do you really believe that politics is as cut-and-dried as the distinction between good and evil, right and wrong?

Yes, I believe the battle between good and evil is extremely fierce in politics.

Do you believe that good and evil in politics always follow party lines?

There tends to be more support of atheistic evil among democrats than among republicans. Democrats fought like the devil for decades to protect and promote slavery against republicans who fought to do away with slavery. Democrats invented the KKK to fight republican efforts to integrate freed blacks into society. Democrats did not support republican reparations to blacks after the Civil War. Democrats voted to kick God off their political platform. Democrats committed voting fraud and support lessening securities against fraud in elections. Democrats promote sexual perversion and racism against whites in schoiols. And so much more.

But then a funny thing happened. After the Civil Rights Act was signed, Democrats who didn't believe in equal rights left the Democrat party and went and joined the Republican party, infusing it with their anti-rights sentiment.

I think the above is a solid example of historical dysfunction.

That claim is erroneous in so many ways. Did Senator Robert Byrd abandon the democrat party and turn republican? No. Did Joe Biden turn republican? No. Did Ronald Reagan turn republican because the republicans turned racist? No. There is very little support for the self-serving democrat narrative that seeks to hide the shame of their racist past.
