“Be Bold America!” Sunday, September 8, 2024 at 5:00pm (PT)
“When somebody has taken the time to draw up a playbook, they are going to use it.” – Tim Walz, 2024 DNC Vice-Presidential Acceptance Speech (re: Project 2025)
Call it what you want. The Republican Party is nakedly zealous about turning America from a democratic republic into a kingdom and the right-wing billionaires and their corporations are doing everything they can to make it happen … led by The Heritage Foundation, that also flew the American flag upside down after the January 6 insurrection just as did Justice Alito’s wife.
Everyone must realize that the Project 2025 scheme to dismantle the American government is for any future Republican president. It might be beaten back this upcoming presidential election but these people, who are fighting for a dictatorship, will not go away.
The right wing is not hiding it. They say it out loud and have proudly written their manifesto; their painstakingly detailed, 922-page, step-by step instruction manual titled, “The Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise – Project 2025.” This interview with Professor John Roth, cohosted by former KGO radio talk show host, John Rothmann, will peel back its pages with an emphasis on religion, health and education.
Yes, this is an actual coup.
