CofA Blog transcript project continued

Hello I'm Michigan state senator Mallory McMorrow and this [SLAMS THICK STACK OF PAPERS IN FRONT OF HER] this is Project 2025. [Music] [Applause]

Now over the next four nights you are going to hear a lot about what is in this 900 page document. Why? Because this is the Republican blueprint for a second Trump term. That's right they went ahead and wrote down all the EX extreme things that Donald Trump wants to do in the next four years and then they just tweeted it out, putting it out on the internet for everybody to read.

So we read it.

And whatever you think it might be. It is so much worse.

Tonight I want to tell you about just one aspect of Project 2025, its plan to turn Donald Trump into a dictator. Okay, right here on page 535, it says quote: Reissue Trump schedule F executive order to permit discharge of non-performing employees.

!!!

Reissue Trump schedule F executive order to permit discharge of non-performing employees

!!!

Now that doesn't sound that scary, right?  But here's what it actually means in plain English.

If Donald Trump gets back into the White House, he's going to fire civil servants like Intelligence Officers, engineers, and even Federal prosecutors if he decides that they don't serve his Personal Agenda. They're talking about replacing the entire federal government with an army of loyalists who answer only to Donald Trump. [Applause] I know all right.

Then okay page 873 it says quote conservatives have long believed in either ending law enforcement activities of independent agencies or ending their independent status. Again that sounds pretty Warning.

But what it means is that under Project 2025 Donald Trump would be able to weaponize the Department of Justice to go after his political opponents.

He could even turn the FBI into his own personal police force. That is not how it works in [Music] America. That's how it works in dictatorships. And that's exactly what Donald Trump and his Maga minions have in mind, an expansion of presidential powers like no president has ever had or should ever have.

Now by the way, if you're asking if any of this is even legal, well remember. Thanks to Donald Trump's handpicked Supreme Court, he's now completely immune from prosecution, even if he breaks the law.

But that's not who we are.

!!!

But that's not who we are.

!!!

Because we believe in a government of the People by the people and for the people, not the government of Donald Trump by Donald Trump and for Donald Trump, we believe in the separation of powers and the rule of law, we believe in a system built up to serve everyone not bringing a system to serve one Petty selfish man.

The truth is there's only one way to stop him and to stop Project 2025. How do we do it? We elect kamala Harris this November we'll be back tomorrow night to tell you what project means for your pocketbook [Applause] English (auto-generated)
