Blitzkrieg Against the Administrative State | Washington Monthly

How the Heritage Foundation and its right-wing allies plan to destroy pluralist government.

Vought’s Center for Renewing America is one of many organizations working with the Heritage Foundation on an ambitious effort to prepare a blitzkrieg against the administrative state and turn the bureaucracy into the president’s personal strike force. Now celebrating the end of its fifth decade, the Heritage Foundation hopes to maintain its position in spearheading the agenda of the Republican right wing. Joined by roughly 75 other conservative groups, the foundation has launched Project 2025—a multi-prong initiative of agenda-setting, personnel recruitment, and online instruction for would-be Trump minions. Much of what Hillary Clinton was once mocked for labeling a “vast right-wing conspiracy” now operates in plain sight. Whether or not the hoped-for right-wing revolution will be televised, it already has a website.

    For so long my generation just trusted those in power to do the right thing for the country and took leadership for granted.

    Maybe once things start to really get bad with right wing policies the youth will realize they have to do something because they have the numbers and can no longer rely on older generations to even do the bare minimum to keep the planet alive.

    Seeing the referendum turnouts regarding abortion gives me hope, but the GOP controlled legislatures aren’t going to give up their control that easily. Look at Ohio. They’re already saying God gives them the right to simply reject the will of the people.
