I like the meme where Richard Simmons was the assassin, and was killed by the SS. Now I read the guy that took the shot and missed was a crook, and a republican. But wait is that redundant?
I'm pretty sure 'the country' decided against overthrowing 'the country'. The Minority Against Governing in America was largely rebuffed. Though I'm deeply concerned that they have not stopped planning their insurrection, and will try again.
Societally, is shunning still a reasonable approach for insurrectionists who for whatever reason seem like they will continue despite judgements leveled against them?
"Johnston, 55, could see a maximum sentence of five years in prison, but sentencing guidelines suggest a from eight to 14 months in prison. His sentencing is scheduled for Oct. 7."
Executive Summary:
Project 2025 envisions widespread changes across the government, particularly economic and social policies and the role of the federal government and its agencies. The plan proposes taking partisan control of the Department of Justice (DOJ), the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the Department of Commerce, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Federal Trade Commission (FTC), dismantling the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and sharply reducing environmental and climate change regulations to favor fossil fuel production.[7][12] The blueprint seeks to institute tax cuts,[13] though its writers disagree on the wisdom of protectionism.[14] Project 2025 recommends abolishing the Department of Education, whose programs would be either transferred to other agencies, or terminated.[15][16] Funding for climate research would be cut while the National Institutes of Health (NIH) would be reformed along conservative principles.[17][18] The Project urges government to explicitly reject abortion as health care[19][20] and eliminate coverage of emergency contraception under the Affordable Care Act.[21] The Project seeks to infuse the government with elements of Christianity.[6] It proposes criminalizing pornography,[22] removing legal protections against discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity,[22][23] and terminating diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs,[3][23] as well as affirmative action.[24] Some conservatives and Republicans have criticized the plan for its stance on climate change[25] and foreign trade.[14] Other critics believe Project 2025 is rhetorical "window-dressing" for what would be four years of personal vengeance at any cost.[26] The project's authors also acknowledged that most of the proposals would require the Republican Party to control both the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate.[26] Other aspects of the plan have recently been ruled unconstitutional by the Supreme Court and would face court challenges, while others still are norm-breaking proposals that might survive court challenges.[27]
The Project recommends the arrest, detention, and deportation of undocumented immigrants living in the United States.[28] It promotes capital punishment and the speedy "finality" of those sentences.[29] Dans acknowledged it was "counterintuitive" to recruit so many to join the government to shrink it, but pointed out the need for a future president to "regain control" of the government.[3] Although the project cannot by law promote a specific presidential candidate, many contributors have close ties to Donald Trump and his 2024 presidential campaign.[30][31] The Washington Post called the project "the most detailed articulation of what a second Trump term would look like."[32] While initially[when?] the Trump campaign said the project aligned well with their Agenda 47 proposals,[26] the Project has increasingly caused friction with the Trump campaign which has generally avoided specific policy proposals that can be used to criticize him.[32] In July 2024, Trump disavowed Project 2025.[33]
