"The story of that period has a powerful resonance today as #Trump, angered in part by the two #federal & two state-level #indictments... threatens to carry out a campaign of #retribution if he returns to the White House. He has signaled that a 2nd Trump administration would be stocked not with people who served as #guardrails during his first term, but with carefully vetted loyalists who would eagerly carry out his wishes"

News headline:
As President, Trump Demanded Investigations of Foes. He Often Got Them.

He has threatened to target his perceived enemies if elected again. A look at his time in the White House shows how readily he could do so. — News headline: As President, Trump Demanded Investigations of Foes. He Often Got Them.

In one video, Bethany Kozma, a #conservative activist & fmr deputy chief of staff at the US Agency for International Development [#USAID] in the #Trump admin, downplays the seriousness of #ClimateChange & says the movement to combat it is really part of a ploy to “control people.”

“If the American people elect a conservative president, his administration will have to eradicate climate change references from absolutely everywhere,” Kozma says.

In the video, Kozma calls the idea of #gender fluidity “evil.” Another speaker, Katie Sullivan, who was an acting asst AG at the #DOJ under #Trump, takes aim at executive actions by the admin of President #Biden that created gender adviser positions throughout the #federal govt. The goal, Biden wrote in one order, was to “advance #EqualRights & opportunities, regardless of gender or gender #identity.”

One centerpiece of that program is dozens of never-before-published videos created for #Project2025’s #PresidentialAdministrationAcademy. The vast majority of these videos — 23 in all, totaling >14 hrs of content — were provided to #ProPublica & #Documented by a person who had access to them.

The #Project2025 videos coach future appointees on everything from the nuts & bolts of governing to how to outwit bureaucrats. There are strategies for avoiding embarrassing #FOIA disclosures & ensuring that #conservative #policies aren’t struck down by “left-wing judges.” Some of the content is routine…. Other segments of the training offer guidance on radically changing how the #federal govt works & what it does.
