The Trump team lied. Project 2025 is influential with his transition team and his second cabinet.

If you believe that Donald Trump & Co represent the working class, congratulations! They’ve successfully pulled the wool over your eyes! Trump’s tax cuts benefitted the rich and his tariffs (and Biden’s) hurt American consumers, not China!
The author is right about one thing—“fear”. The xenophobic fearmongering about illegal immigrants is outlandish, considering Biden has been deporting them on par with Trump (not to mention the ones being detained at GTMO)!
Another thing, for as long as I’ve been able to vote, neither party has represented the working class! Read about the Powell Memorandum!

Immunity for Me but Not for Thee
President Obama ordered a drone strike in Yemen to kill Anwar al-Awlaki, an American citizen and Islamic Imam critical of American foreign policy in the Middle East. Before releasing the drones that killed al-Awlaki and two others, the White House sought and received a Memorandum from the Department of Justice providing legal justification for the attack.
Several questions come to mind. Should the memo from DoJ authorizing the killing of an American citizen abroad without judicial due process immunize President Obama for violating the federal criminal statute that imposes criminal penalties for the extra territorial killing of an American citizen?
Could a subsequent President, a member of the opposing political party, direct a new Attorney General to investigate whether the killing of the U.S. citizen by drone attack in Yemen violated federal criminal law? If an indictment is returned against the now former President for that killing, should President Obama be allowed to claim immunity or be forced to stand trial?
America last. America last. That’s all this is. America last, every single day. – Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene
The man who is most responsible for the $95 billion giveaway to Ukraine and Israel, is the same guy who pretends to oppose America’s “wasteful” foreign wars. Donald Trump. It was Trump who consulted with Speaker Mike Johnson about the contents of the Ukraine aid package, just as it was Trump who concocted the idea of issuing loans instead of dispersing the standard welfare handout. It was also Trump who said:
