Let’s keep the conversation going! What are your thoughts on the issues discussed in this episode? I’d love to hear your opinions in the comments. And, if you enjoy our content, please subscribe to the Lean to the Left podcast.
In this episode, our goal is to increase understanding of ‘Project 2025,’ a threat to American democracy and a controversial roadmap for a potential new Trump administration.
Designed by the Heritage Foundation and backed by Trump and his allies, Project 2025 would give Trump, if elected, massive new powers that would benefit the wealthy and provide unimaginable harm to most Americans.
Featuring insights from Lean to the Left contributors C. J. Waldron and Susan V. Hutchinson, we explore the potential impacts on American society, from healthcare and education to federal governance and women’s rights.
Learn about the implications for democracy, national policies, and the possible future that Project 2025 could shape. Don’t miss this comprehensive analysis and discussion.
