Project 2025 isn't going anywhere and a rebrand doesn't erase its deep connections to Trumpworld.

Don't take it from me. In June, Heritage Foundation president said Project 2025 will live on “for the next century in the United States”
"Winding down its policy operations" is misleading.

The policy work has been largely complete since they published their 900 page book in April 2023. Project 2025 includes an indispensible concentration of policy proposals in the conservative movement mediamatters.org/heritage-found…
Kevin Roberts on 7/12: “Never before has the conservative movement been this unified around a governing agenda”

Project 2025 is about securing the legacy of Trumpism for the next GOP administration and beyond.

NEW: @mmfa has launched a major new project tracking Trump's closest advisers across the entire right-wing media. This resource will be updated on a weekly basis.

A thread on who's who in Trumpworld 2.0: mediamatters.org/donald-trump/g…
Image
We are tracking a close-knit circle of operatives -- from podcast hosts to think tank presidents to far-right internet trolls, based on public reporting on who's exerting influence behind the scenes on Trump.
Trumpworld is a volatile, back-biting universe. Power centers rise and fall on an extremely fluid basis. We're going to update this peice with breaking news as it develops.

Here's who's on our radar upon launch:

Christian Zionist Michelle Bachmann tells Charlie Kirk at Amfest conference:

"It's time that Gaza ends. The 2 million people who live there, they are clever assassins. they need to be removed from that land, that land needs to be turned into a national park."

Crowd cheers
Bachman was on for several segments, during which she and Kirk pushed the white supremacist Great Replacement conspiracy theory, said Muslims shouldn't be serving in congress, said Somalians are turning Minnesota into a terrorist hellhole, I could go on.

It was completely insane
sorry from my janky video cut folks

Antisemites in right-wing media are mask off like I've never seen before. Consensus that this is the path forward is hardening.

Charlie Kirk today: “Some of the largest financiers of left-wing anti-white causes have been Jewish Americans” mediamatters.org/charlie-kirk/c…

Kirk is endorsing Elon Musk's antisemitic conspiracy theory that Jews are using immigration to destabilize the country, which he described as "the actual truth"

mediamatters.org/elon-musk/elon…
Last weekend Donald Trump called his political enemies "vermin", a Hitlerian term, the premise of which was used to justify the genocide of 6 million Jews and millions of others he despised.

The comments received muted coverage from the mainstream media. mediamatters.org/abc/trump-call…
