I first heard of the Council for National Policy from @amandablount2. I wrote about it > learning that a few too many dubious election results in the US since 2000 have involved CNP members or CNP award recipients (& other Religious Right members). 1/ extranewsfeed.com/americas-talib…
Quite frankly, it scared the bejeezus out of me. 2/

8/ Some of this stuff just blew my mind.

10/ This is how I knew what the plans were for public education too. I had assembled all of this research back in 2017 or 2018.
11/ it’s one of those organizations where the more you dig, the worse it gets
12/ Bannon & KellyAnne - both from Cambridge Analytica, both in the CNP 2014 directory.
13/
14/ Anyway, I came at the CNP initially mostly from an elections angle. But when all the CRT stuff came up, I thought that it sounded like the type of “moral outrage” fabrication that would make CNP member Morton Blackwell (who runs the Leadership Institute) proud.
15/ And then I read this @RightWingWatch piece that showed, why yes, he is involved. rightwingwatch.org/post/the-right…
16/ So I started looking into the CNP’s involvement in all of the education BS only to discover there was huge overlap with the people behind the insurrection. They are basically the same operation.
17/ Anyway, that is how I knew about the CNP.
18/ Meanwhike, @anelsona had written a whole book and several articles about the CNP. This one about the CNP & the insurrection. washingtonspectator.org/nelson-cnp/
19/ And @BrentAllpress had obtained a slew of CNP directories.
20/ And @duboo had done some excellent CNP work too. exposedbycmd.org/2021/01/08/chr…
21/ @jimstewartson is another good CNP follow.
22/ @davetroy also has good posts about the CNP.

I read the Trump-backed voter suppression bill, the so-called “Save America Act,” so you don’t have to. Here’s my summary. Please tell your Senators to vote NO on this abomination: 202-224-3121. TY. 1/ Image
You can read the Trump-backed “Save America Act” for yourself here. This bill expands upon the original so-called “SAVE Act”. 2/ congress.gov/119/bills/hr72…
3/ Here’s a link to the Brennan Center’s July 2025 report warning about the problems with both the SAVE System and the Social Security Number database when used to purge voters from the voter rolls, as would occur under the “Save America Act”. Everyone should read it. brennancenter.org/our-work/resea…

The SAVE America Act’s list of approved citizenship documentation is at the top. Marriage certificates are *not* included, effectively disenfranchising many of the 69M women whose last names don’t match their birth certificates (not an issue for those who buy expensive passports or have “Enhanced Drivers Licenses” that do match) 1/Image

The GOP’s “SAVE America Act” has a list of approved citizenship documentation for voters. It includes Real IDs that “indicate citizenship,” which misleads bc most Real IDs *don’t* indicate citizenship & thus won’t suffice.

The list also does *not* include marriage certificates, effectively disenfranchising many of the 69M women whose last names don’t match their birth certificates (not an issue for those w/ passports or Enhanced Drivers Licenses that do match). #NoOnSAVE #ProtectOurVotes 1/Image

Rs are using public confusion over Real ID to advance their deceptive Save America Act. In reality, for most voters, a Real ID will *not* suffice to prove citizenship under the Act—even if they presented a birth certificate to get it. Tell ur Senators #NoOnSAVE. 202-224-3121 1/ Image

The GOP’s “SAVE Act” has a list of approved citizenship documentation for voters. It includes Real IDs that “indicate citizenship,” which is highly misleading bc most REAL IDs *don’t* indicate citizenship, per the DHS.

The list also does *not* include marriage certificates, effectively disenfranchising many of the 69M women whose last names don’t match their birth certificates (not an issue for those w/ passports or Enhanced Drivers Licenses that do match). #NoOnSAVE #ProtectOurVotes 1/Image

Most Real IDs do *not* prove citizenship. (EDLs, which are available in only 5 states are an exception) The GOP’s “SAVE” Act thus misleads when it says voters can prove citizenship w/ “ID issued consistent w/ the reqmts of…REAL ID…that indicates the applicant is a citizen…” 1/ Image
