MSNBC ran non-stop Project 2025 coverage for six months.
Don't watch them.
that's too bad, you're missing out

Yep. This is the tech lords’ dream
What the fuq?
Billionaires want their own fiefdoms.
These people are just evil.
Such abominations are why boycotts became a thing. That is the greatest tool of common people and we should relearn its use
Great… we’ve circled back to Company Towns. 🤦🏼♀️
Let's set some dirt aside, and let them have at. just make sure there is a 20 foot tall electric fence and a moat around it. They'll feel safer that way. All the nuts in one basket would be great.
Like that time all Christians were told to move to South Carolina and make that a "Christian State." I say please do that!
