I decided, for funsies, to read project 2025…it’s started off strong with them wanting to delete terms like gender, diversity, abortion, reproductive health & rights “out of every federal rule, agency regulation, contract, grant, regulation, & piece of legislation that exists.” Image
This sentence threw me for a loop… not sure how being transgender is pornography… but the rest of the paragraph is saying what we have all been warning… they are trying to make it illegal for trans people to exist… there was also A LOT of anti-trans regulation throughout. Image
54% of Americans read at or below a 6th grade reading level… making them a “child’s primary educator” sounds like an absolutely horrible idea… & also, no more nicknames for students!
Image
Image
Not only do republicans want to eliminate the department of education, they also want to privatize schools, & fund faith-based institutions. There are sooo many issues with privatizing education, but those manly affect poor children & republicans don’t care about poor children… Image
Ah the classic, we will fire any “left” federal workers, the DOJ, and the environment protection agency… and also anyone who is a democrat and holds a government position.

Image
Image
Image
Oh, this one is fun, “Tiktok is the root of all evil, controlling the youth… and the Chinese government has infiltrated colleges and universities!”… & then goes on saying tiktok should be banned. Bc allowing genZ & millennials to easily communicate cannot be allowed!
Image
Image
They are really doubling down with the whole, not attending college… so much so that only workers who didn’t attend college will get raises… Image
So if you are obese, suffer from depression, or have IBS you should not be hired? Weird take… Image
Ah rainbows, such divisive symbols… Image
& they aren’t even pretending to be ok with the LGBTQ+ community… bc a family is made up of a mother, father & children… and that’s also the only way anyone can receive “reproductive technologies”. & also allow discrimination against the LGBTQ+ when it comes to adoption…


Image

This proposal is really interesting, conservatives want to gut the education system, reward the uneducated, but then only allow the most educated immigrants into the country, who will receive the highest wages… so, **checks notes**, Americans can work all the low paying jobs? Image
And of course, ban all students from “enemy nations”… Image
What I’m hearing is, unless journalism is painting Trump in the best light, it’s considered “highly critical” and not allowed… Image
This is actually hilarious, they say a journalist is not credible to hold the USAGM CEO position bc of “security failures” & “credibility failures”… but the orange reality TV host, who shared classified national security documents with everyone, is fine to be president… Image
And ironically, Trump’s USAGM CEO was found to have “repeatedly abused the powers of his office, broke laws and regulations, and engaged in gross mismanagement.” Republicans are always projecting…

Image
Image
Image
& when talking about stripping funding for Public Broadcasting, they mention the trillion dollars of debt, which republican presidents have historically added to each presidency, & then say these broadcasting services don’t push conservative views 24/7 so why give them funding? Image
And my favorite is where they break down the viewership of PBS & NPR, saying it’s “mostly liberal”, while ignoring the fact that the majority of the country is liberal or independent… & most republicans think all news is “fake news”. Image
& here we go… the defunding of Medicare &Medicaid…bc forcing women, who can’t afford to have a child, to pay completely out of pocket for prenatal care & a hospital birth, which costs thousands and thousands of dollars, completely makes sense… Image
& speaking of forcing women to pay thousands of dollars, they want to ban abortion drugs… bc who needs a $0-600 pill when you can get a D&C SURGERY, for a partial miscarriage, that costs $15k+… & a D&C is medically considered an abortion, and is, in fact, healthcare.

Image
Image
Image
85% of women who have abortions are single, funding single-motherhood would help decrease abortions… but republicans say, forget that! Let’s force them to have babies, and then punish them for being single. & also not allow condoms to be covered under health insurance for women
Image
Image
Besides the entire section about reducing & making food & nutrition programs harder to access, they want to remove free school lunches bc of the “fraud” that was happening with feeding children who “could afford to pay for lunches”… So, making it harder for starving children 👍 Image
& speaking of children’s lunches, let’s also remove all dietary guidelines, bc who needs those… Image
Besides their obsession with “working fathers” if you were wondering what Republican’s thoughts were on working mothers… wonder no longer. They apparently don’t want mothers to work… Image
AND HERE IT IS! Republicans want to be allowed to legally come after women for having “self induced” miscarriages… they want to ban abortions nationwide, & then come after women. So, if you have any substances in your system at the time of a miscarriage, you are screwed. Image
And would it even be a conservative blueprint if they didn’t mention Hunter Biden’s Laptop? Image
And if anyone wants the pdf… thf_media.s3.amazonaws.com/project2025/20…
There was also a lot about CRT bans, and of course changing the definition of gender to be directly determined by the sex listed on your birth certificate… & all their major talking points.
Also thought I would mention, according to this pdf, apparently the entire government is fully run by “the left”… which is really confusing being that republicans control the house, basically half of the senate, the Supreme Court, and trump was just president for 4 years…

BREAKING NEWS: ICE is already attempting to raid ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS.

Today, in Chicago, ICE showed up at Hamline Elementary School. Luckily, the school followed Chicago Public School protocols, and did not allow ICE in the school, or access to the children or staff.

I can only imagine how terrified the students, staff, and parents were, especially after all the news of ICE detaining US citizens.

This should never be allowed. Period.

What happened to protecting our children?!?
How long until Trump forces schools to give access to ICE agents or he will cut funding? This is not ok!
We need to be keeping an eye on what is happening in red states, with government that is allowing these raids. They will try to keep it very hush hush as they abduct brown children from schools.

Wow. Every “pro-life” argument was just demolished in this report on how abortion bans have endangered the lives of patients…

It is the most comprehensive research to date, and concluded that “Louisiana's ban is impeding a federal law that regulates the provision of emergency health care, and is infringing on reproductive and human rights.”

So, let me share some of what the report found… 🧵Image
“The U.S. is facing a human rights crisis in maternal health. For every person who dies from a pregnancy-related cause in the country, about 100 more women will experience maternal morbidity—a life-threatening pregnancy complication.”

When it comes to performing abortions, many are forced to perform c-sections instead of a d&c… “One emergency medicine physician recounted a situation where a colleague performed a c-section on a patient with PPROM at 20 weeks’ gestation, a condition that would not result in a viable pregnancy:
She ended up having to take this person for c-section to preserve the appearance of not doing an abortion, even though this is not a viable pregnancy. What that means is now this person has had a c-section, right? And that means that she’s at higher risk for any future pregnancies. She can no longer deliver vaginally ... [T]he appropriate thing to do, again would be a D&E ... without subjecting the patient to this unnecessary abdominal surgery. But my colleague didn’t feel like she could do that while remaining in compliance with the law or appearing to remain in compliance with the law.”
To avoid the risk of criminal penalties under the bans, nearly every clinician relayed an account in which they and/or their colleagues delayed abortion care until complications worsened to the point where the patient’s life was irrefutably at risk. A MFM specialist in a specialty hospital observed: We are seeing more cases where OB-GYNs are not acting and are making the woman wait until complications arise, waiting for signs of infection, and then it is more complicated and difficult. ... [I]n general, we are seeing more pregnancies where the correct management is delayed. (14)

Hey Chicago, I found who allowed Scientology to have an illegal “street festival” in downtown Chicago… meet @BobFiorettiChi. Bob said, “helping Scientology navigate the city bureaucracy to open the site was no different than what he’d provide for any other faith group.” 🧵
So Bob here, apparently, help Scientology obtain a permit, that was for PUBLIC events, though theirs was PRIVATE. Scientology shut down the public way from pedestrians, which is illegal… & they also shut it down FOR DAYS, which went directly against their permit. Image
Scientology ALSO, broke every sidewalk safety regulation, put the entire block at risk, and while doing that, it says directly on their permit, that they didn’t even have an evacuation plan… Image

I’ve had 2 miscarriages in a row. That only happens to 1% of people, & had a d&c for one of them. Women are being denied access to d&cs & their lives are being put in jeopardy bc of it. I am also VERY ADHD & have to take meds during future pregnancies. 🧵
Republicans are planning to ban abortions for everyone & will also convict women for having miscarriages,especially when taking meds. This means, not only does a Republican win threaten my life, it would also put me at risk of being arrested just for having another miscarriage.
I’m a big advocate for lgbtq+ rights when I don’t benefit. I’m a big advocate for diversity, equity and inclusion even though it doesn’t always include me. I fight for the right to seek asylum & believe systemic racism is still an issue today, calling out laws that deny that.

If you are wondering, “How is it racism if the cops were black?” This is the thread for you! 🧵
A few years ago, I took it upon myself to become more educated about the history of systemic racism. What I learned was, when slavery was abolished, systems were put in place to make it so black ppl were forced back into slavery if they weren’t employed & didn’t have housing.
This became the basis of the prison system, with the 13th amendment stating, slavery was illegal except as punishment for crimes. This then lead to a wide range of laws &regulations, put in place, to make it easier to arrest black people, which is the beginning of systemic racism

BREAKING NEWS: Republicans are starting a war on musicals. According to this bill, no performance is allowed if it can be viewed by a child & has a drag performer. That’s right, no musicals such as, hairspray, RENT, Peter Pan, etc are allowed. @albinokid azleg.gov/legtext/56leg/…
This is what happens when you play stupid games and elect theocratic authoritarians. They ban art from the general public.
And this is just another reason why republicans need to stop writing bills about things they don’t understand.
