  2. Kind of sick of the “Biden Campaign” making these statements. Joe, you should be on top of this.

  3. Dems really confuse me, on the one hand they say Trump is a complete idiot with an IQ of 90, at the same time they say Trump has an intricate detailed plan to overthrow the entire system put in place for over 200 years. Who is the real idiot?

  4. Biden, we need someone to scream this shit from the rooftops.

    If you are too prideful to step aside you need to at least be in front of a camera, going through point by point how fucking terrible this is.

  5. Thank God. Now just go after the Supreme Court. Drop all the dirt on Harlan crow.

  6. Best for the Democrats to continue to deflect here and get the focus on Trump, as it’s a losing proposition to have the spotlight on Biden.

  7. Title and 1st paragraph is misleading.

    Upon reading the article, in paragraphs 4, 5 & 6 (see below) mention Biden’s Campaign directly or are quoting from the Campaign and not Biden himself.

    (Para 4) Biden’s campaign, however, seeks to associate Trump with the conservative playbook, which in its introduction pledges to “dismantle the administrative state” rails against abortion and denounces gender-inclusive language as terms “used to deprive Americans of their First Amendment rights.”

    (Para 5)”Donald Trump is lying again now. He’s trying to hide his connections to his allies’ extreme Project 2025 agenda,” the Biden campaign said in a [statement per CNN](https://www.cnn.com/politics/live-news/biden-trump-election-07-05-24/index.html). “The only problem? It was written for him, by those closest to him. Project 2025 should scare every single American.”

    (Para 6) “It would give Trump limitless power over our daily lives and let him use the presidency to enact ‘revenge’ on his enemies, ban abortion nationwide and punish women who have an abortion, and gut the checks and balances that make America the greatest democracy in the world. It’s extreme and dangerous.”

    _______________

    Why this matters? Because its becoming increasingly clear that Biden isn’t likely able to respond in such a way without being fed the information and fed the response to the information.

    There should be more outrage and demand for Harris to assume the role of President instead of Jill, Clyburn and Obama/Peeps committing elder abuse and preventing Harris’ Constitutional ascent.

  9. This is the best tl;dr I could make, [original](https://www.upi.com/amp/Top_News/US/2024/07/06/joe-biden-project-2025-donald-trump/2081720290180/) reduced by 75%. (I’m a bot)

  12. Trump being an awful POS doesn’t mean that Biden is the best we can do. Logic 101

  13. Biden being orange now too is probably the funniest part of all of this

  14. Trump’s press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, is also working for Project 2025.

  15. How can he know nothing about Project 2025 and simultaneously be opposed to it?

  16. The big problem with the interview was how he spent the first boys actually discussing the debate.

    Got the Supreme Court, Project 2025, abortion and the fact that he’s a FUCKING CRIMINAL in the first two minutes.

    Change the damn subject

  18. Weird title.

    It makes it seem like Biden is chastising Trump for disowning P2025 when really he’s talking about him hiding connections.

  19. This is a really good move. The more 2025 is in the press the better.

  20. If Biden isn’t going to step aside he better have a couple cups of coffee and starting slinging massive amounts of shit at republicans.

  21. 2016- Trump was a Russian spy .
    2020- trump fabricated the Hunter Biden laptop
    2024 – Trump is associated with project 2025….
    Do you see trend ?

  23. How can he disown something he never owned in the first place

  24. Next debate needs to be aimed at MAGA. Dems are voting Dem. Biden needs to cut Trump deep. Just ignore questions and go for Trumps throat. Every question Biden needs to ask to just sat “Trump raped 13 year olds.” Or “Trump wants to end Gay marriage”. Pull no punches, don’t worry about facts. Literally play it like a Trump. Every answer needs to be “why won’t Trump talk about the 13 year old he stripped naked, and violated? Donald brag about walking in on naked teens more. Come on Jack”

  25. GET HIS ASS JOE.

  26. The Project 2025 document includes several proposals related to limiting the influence and activities of labor unions. Here are the key points:

    1. **Rescind the Persuader Rule**: The document advocates for rescinding the “persuader rule,” which was an Obama Administration directive requiring lawyers and consultants advising employers about union issues to file disclosure forms. This rule was previously rescinded by the Trump Administration and is recommended to be rescinded again if revived by the Biden Administration. The rule’s removal would reduce transparency regarding anti-union activities by employers.

    2. **Card Check vs. Secret Ballot**: The document criticizes the “card check” procedure under the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA), where a union can collect signed pro-union cards from a majority of employees to seek union recognition without a secret ballot election. The document argues that this procedure can lead to coercion and does not reflect true employee preferences. It calls for discarding the card check in favor of secret ballot elections to ensure fairer unionization processes.

    3. **10(j) Injunctive Relief**: While acknowledging the importance of temporary injunctions to reinstate workers engaged in concerted activity who were wrongfully terminated, the document suggests increasing the use of such injunctions to provide meaningful remedies and deter unfair labor practices.

    4. **Dues-Funded Worker Centers**: The document notes that worker centers, which have grown significantly in number and influence, are not required to file financial disclosures like labor unions. It proposes that the Department of Labor (DOL) investigate these worker centers and enforce financial disclosure requirements to prevent potential fraud and corruption.

    These proposals aim to reduce the influence of labor unions and increase oversight and regulation of union-related activities.

  27. The “Mandate for Leadership” is a set of policy proposals authored by the Heritage Foundation, an influential ultra conservative think tank. Project 2025 is a revision to that agenda tailored to a second Trump term. It would give the President unilateral powers, strip civil rights, worker protections, climate regulation, add religion into policy, outlaw “porn” and much more. The MFL has been around since 1980, Reagan implemented 60% of it’s recommendations, Trump 64% – proof. 70 Heritage Foundation alumni served in his administration or transition team. Project 2025 is quite extreme but with his obsession for revenge he’ll likely get past 2/3rd’s adoption.

    The Heritage Foundation already writes bills for Republicans to submit. That’s how there have been over 500 anti-LGBTQ+ bills submitted to states since January 1st, 2024. They’re the ones writing these bills and getting the GOP to pass them. They were also the ones who wrote Texas’s pornography ID law that was passed. They have been behind abortion, contraception, and anti-drug laws, too. And Harrison Butker? They were the ones who sponsored him up on stage as Butker works with them frequently. And let’s not also forget that The Heritage Foundation has frequent confrences that showers GOP politicians with lavish gifts while teaching them how to create right-wing propaganda and craft bills against LGBTQ+ people, abortion, and everything else.

    There is no “might”. It will happen. The Heritage Foundation controls the GOP.

    There’s always a right-winger trying to make people think Project 2025 is no big deal. No, it’s not just a think tank, it’s The Heritage Foundation. They have massive influence over right-wing politicians. Ronald Reagan took direction from them, and Donald Trump let them pick his administration. Betsy DeVos, Mick Mulvaney, Rick Perry, Scott Pruitt, and Jeff Sessions were some of the people they picked.

    Back in 2022, The Heritage Foundation completely reversed its position on helping Ukraine. Most Republicans followed suit. They have a lot of power and a lot of Republicans licking their boots. It’s definitely something to worry about.

    Here are all the connections between Project 2025 and Trump statements.

    Commenting this for visibility. The claims that he and others are making that they have no connection to Project 2025 or the Heritage Foundation are false.
