Mr. Trump posting on Truth Social, quote, I have a meeting today with Office of Management and Budget Director Ross Vogt, he of Project 2025 fame, to determine which of the many Democrat agencies, most of which are a political scam, he recommends to be cut and whether or not those cuts will be temporary or permanent. I can't believe the radical left Democrats gave me this unprecedented opportunity. They are not stupid people, so maybe this is their way of wanting to, quietly and quickly, make America great again.
Project 2025 is a policy playbook drawn up by the conservative Heritage Foundation in hopes of a Republican victory in 2024. Ross Vogt is one of the key architects. Democrats throughout the election casting the document as a textbook for installing fascism. President Trump regularly saying he had not read Project 2025 and it was not a part of his campaign. of course, here appearing to reference it as a troll. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries reacting to reporters yesterday.
Donald Trump and Republicans spent all of last year promising that they were going to lower the high cost of living. They also spent all of last year running away from Project 2025, acting like Project 2025 didn't exist. But what have they been doing this year? This year, they've done nothing. Zip zero, stingy with dinero, nothing to lower the high cost of living for everyday Americans. While at the same period of time, implementing and unleashing Project 2025. Now all of a sudden, Donald Trump admits it was his project all along.
Last week, votes circulating a memo directing agencies to draw up plans for layoffs in the event of a shutdown. Votes specifically targeting programs, projects, or activities that are not legally required to continue and do not align with President Trump's priorities. On Wednesday, just hours into the shutdown, vote announcing the cancellation of nearly $8 billion in green energy contracts across 16 states. An additional $18 billion in funding toward New York City infrastructure projects put on hold. In March, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer backing down from a budget fight, warning a shutdown would hand Mr. Trump more power to shrink the government. The move drawing tremendous criticism from his party, the minority leader now changing his tune.
