Yeah, I guess we can start with Kevin Roberts, who is the head of the Heritage Foundation. And Heritage is, of course, a long running conservative institution. But Roberts was a relatively new leader. Heritage had gone through a sort of tumultuous period. They hired a new head. He left, formed a new organization. His replacement clashed with the Trump administration.

And so when Roberts came in, he was sort of trying to reboot the organization. And this was a big part of that. The person he brought in to lead Project 2025 is a man named Paul Danz. And Danz is a longtime lawyer, and he had been in the Federalist Society since he was in law school, but had not served in politics until the first Trump administration.

And he was a big fan of Trump from very early on. He wanted Trump to run for office in 2011 when he was pushing the birther lie. And he finally managed to kick his way into the White House late in the first Trump administration, working in the personnel office.

Yes. And Vote is kind of the inside man if Dan's is the outsider. Vote came up through Capitol Hill circles working for very conservative, fiscally conservative members of Congress like Phil Graham and Jeb Hensarling. And then he served in the Office of Management and Budget during Trump's first term in office.

And he is the man who I think has thought most about how government works and how to achieve the things they want to do. He's really about the sort of operations and levers of power.

That's right. You know, he gave a really interesting interview to Charlie Kirk a couple of years ago, the conservative podcaster. And he said, you know, the left is always saying using these pejorative names for us. But when they say Christian nationalist, you know, I think that's accurate. I'm a Christian and I'm a nationalist. That's not a pejorative for me.
