'Put that everywhere': Steve Bannon admits 'Project 2025 is the agenda' after Trump wins
Right-wing pundits admitted that a controversial plan to reshape the country called Project 2025 is Donald Trump's agenda after he won the 2024 presidential election.On his daily War Room podcast, host Steve Bannon agreed with conservative pundit Matt Walsh, who made the admission on social media."N...
It's all Harris's fault everyone so definitely do not blame the absolute human garbage who didn't vote even knowing the stakes

3The weirdoes are excited about cutting off the porn, I guess.
40Y'all remember how prohibition panned out?
1There is literally no way to do this. They're just too stupid to know that.
12There's no way to block 100% but if they went full "fire wall of America", they could block enough to the 80% of people who don't know how to use a vpn, it would look like they're doing something.
And then you get the added bonus of blocking all those nasty foreign websites talking about freedom, democracy, equal rights and more!
14Tell you what. I just got a couple boxes of canvas. If they do "ban porn," I'll dedicate every one of these brand new canvasses to making erotic paintings out of spite.
And I mean, I'm not even a porn consumer. I just fucking hate fascists.
... *though I also* happen to enjoy creating suggestive imagery, as well as painting nude figures. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
3I live in a state where we now have ID verification laws. It effectively blocks the big players with the quality content.
3Oh, a dedicated and motivated set of xtian nationalists sure could make everyone miserable over it. They elect a fascist dumbfuck and people cannot even fap in peace if it were up to them...you know, "freedom" and "small government" and all that.

"Now that the election is over I think we can finally say that yeah actually Project 2025 is the agenda," Walsh wrote on X (formerly Twitter).
In other words "Damn right we lied to everybody! Thanks, suckers!"
I guess there's no need to even bother wearing the masks any more. Racism, misogyny and bigotry won the day. Handily. Republicans turned out in droves to sign up for more of it, and Democrats have said they're willing to accept it rather than elect a black woman. At that point, why even bother hiding it. Everybody knows what it is, and last night they said in pretty decisive fashion that they either actively want it or are at least willing to accept it.
We did this to ourselves. Trump made some small gains, but Harris underperformed Biden by roughly 10% or so. That means millions of Democrats sat home instead of voting for Harris, which also cost the Democrats some House and Senate seats downballot due to the lower turnout. There was no election fraud. This was a free and fair election. Trump won the popular vote. There are no excuses this time. We. Voted. For. This.
8-10 million Democrats stayed home. I don't care if you're "protesting Gaza", or if you're a closeted bigot who would rather sit out than vote for a black woman. Or whatever. If you stayed home rather than vote for Harris, you voted for this. In the words of Rush, "If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice". And you made that choice knowing it was a de-facto vote for Trump.
The GOP had a damn good night last night. And they couldn't even wait 24 hours before cramming it right down our throats. They couldn't even wait 24 hours to take the mask off. Give it a couple of days and I figure the national abortion ban will be the next thing they don't bother trying to lie about any more. Why bother trying to hide it? We already said we're cool with it.
260A guy at work today said he wasn't worried about prop 3 failing because he has a medical Marijuana card. Like, dude, you're a brown man on a list of Marijuana consumers and the modern day nazis just got elected and now wield the fbi and DEA with no guardrails. He's fucked and he refuses to see it.
38Don't forget that the Latino vote for Trump went from 25% to 45%.
The dumb bastards voted themselves into being deported and don't think Stephen Miller is going to have a soft spot for people here legally.
Hes gonna come for them all.
107It blows my mind. But it's the reality. In an ideal world every minority should be against Trump. But this isn't the world we live in. There is a huge amount of immigrants who are coming from ultra conservative society.
Some latino who are well established will happily kick the ladder so that other can't come in.
So it's not super surprising. Homophobia and racism isn't only a white people's thing.
14This is sort of beside the point you're making, but a lot of 1st/2nd generation Latinos still look down on immigrants. "We did it the hard way, so they should have to as well" similar to bootstrap mentality.
It's some real mental gymnastics, but I've had several latina girlfriends over the years and some of their families were poor or super well off, but they openly hated Mexicans and/or Puerto Ricans.
That number isn't really that surprising.

I will note at the rate things are going Trump has like a 85% chance of beating his 2020 numbers and a small chance of beating Biden's 2020 numbers. It's not JUST Harris poor turnout.
(Also her turnout was only bad by 2020 standards, it's still higher than John Kerry or Gore or Hillary)
15Upvote for Rush
16Blame everyone but Harris huh?
She, along with Hillary, never once bothered to try getting Stein voters to switch to her. It was both their downfalls. Trump did all he could to get RFK voters to switch to him.
-47I'm not saying you're necessarily wrong. But Trump won by far more than Stein pulled away from Harris (Outside of maybe Michigan). Even if she did court those votes, it probably wouldn't have mattered.
But last night wasn't the result of a political miscalculation that they realized in hindsight. She underperformed when compared to Biden by roughly 10%. 8-10 million Democrats that voted last time opted out this time. That's a shellacking. 8-10 million people said "I'm not going to vote for Trump, but I'd first step aside and let Trump win anyway over voting for Harris." There was nothing she could have done to win them over. Her campaign was doomed from the start. She just didn't know it at the time.
25...RFK Jr did just as much damage as Stein did and got almost the same number of votes despite being off a ton of important large states. He's the reason New Mexico isn't so close it's a Swing State. It ain't the greens
7Stein has well under a million votes, her votes wouldn't have made a difference if Harris got every single one.
15They went further than that this year, instead of trying to win over disenfranchised voters they completely ignored anything to the left of Chaney

Now that it’s clear that Harris’s really well run campaign underperformed Hillary Clinton, can we finally end the myth that some failing of her campaign strategy or “likability” was the primary reason for her loss rather than sexism and Comey’s shenanigans? It really seems like a very large number of men just won’t vote for a woman in the US.
50"Really well run" seems like a bit of an exaggeration when people were doing vote-swaps in swing states with liberals who didn't want to vote for her.
0That's my big takeaway from this election. A well-qualified woman will lose to the most idiotic man possible because millions of men will just never vote for a woman. All of these people in Georgia, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Michigan all showed up for Joe Biden, and all vanished for Hillary and Kamala, despite both being better candidates.
38But GeNoCiDe tHo
4I mean, her campaign was pretty awful in a lot of ways. It started out strong but since the DNC it was misstep after misstep. I dunno about you, but I love hearing the president say they'll only be different than Biden, because they'll have more Republicans in their cabinet. I love hearing they're going to build the wall. I love hearing them talk all the time about the fact that Cheney endorsed them. I love hearing how profracking they are. And I love their silence on the genocide in Gaza. Certainly, sexism and racism plays a role, but let's not kid ourselves here.
30Sorry, but she had a ton of hype and squandered it by saying she would be the same as Biden, would have the most lethal military, didn't separate on Gaza, focused on small businesses instead of all Americans, flipflopped on Medicare and fracking in both the worst ways, picked a progressive vp and caged him in bad neoliberal talking points instead of adopting his hard agenda, and tried to push for a republican written border bill instead of trying to reframe the issue in a any progressive way. Most Americans, Republicans included care about immigration and ALSO agree on a pathway to citizenship.
People gave her the benefit of the doubt and she told them to accept her as she wanted to be. You can't continue to shame a voter base indefinitely, politicians are supposed to campaign in a way that wins votes.
7We've all elected women to all kinds of positions in all kinds of states, and even both major parties. We can't just blame that.
-2Michigan voted trump and a Democrat woman, slotkin, senator this election.

No, because the truth is not as simple as that. Dems ran on a terrible campaign again, and lost again. Underselling "our" party's shortcomings is a surefire way to another loss next cycle.
-1Her campaign was awful. Her whole deal was that she was going to do more of what Biden did. You know, the guy we didn't want to reelect so she stepped up to run? Also she pushed right the whole time. She gunned for centrist votes. She should have leaned into Walz's policy ideas on a broader scale. In fact, walz probably would have had a pretty good chance if he were the DNC candidate. She also campaigned in the strangest places. Why on earth did she rally in Houston? She could have gone anywhere in the swing states with the Beyonce performance but she went to a city that was already going to vote blue on a state that has a moonshot's chance to flip from red. She should have spent more time in GA, PA, and AZ. But hindsight is 2020.
-2People are still criticizing her laugh.

Mutual aid will be more important than ever, join and build up your local groups if you're able, it will pay off in dividends in the coming years.
This election has only proven how electoralism cannot be relied upon, it's just us now. We need to build the world we want to live in, without corporate influence.
- Search your local area + 'mutual aid'.
- Help your local food not bombs.
- Create a worker owned cooperative with your friends if possible, or join an existing one.
- Help spread the meshtastic network to build up communication resilience in your community.
- Plant trees in your community to help reduce the heat island effect for the coming heatwaves.
- Create or join a community garden near you to bolster food availability and foster connections with those around you.
- engage in guerrilla urbanism, make your community safer to walk or bike
- encourage your coworkers to unionize under the IWW, contact them for help on how to unionize your workplace.
- vote in your local elections to try and have a state or city government that is less hostile to the above actions, but continue to build decentralized power independently of them regardless. Do not make the mistake of handing off the responsibility to make things better to them, it's up to YOU, and your community, and hopefully other nearby communities doing the same, but that is all.
We have tremendous collective power if we just use it, and hopefully this outcome will result in us coming together and building that world in the shell of the old. Collective solidarity is our only solution left.
58Huh? Honest Trumpy said he’d never heard of it
36He may not even have been lying. He's demented, and he didn't even read the daily white house briefings. There's no way in hell he'd pick up a 900+ page document. It's in his Christian Taliban handlers best interest to keep him in the dark. It's not like his voter base expect him to know what his policies are, because they don't even know. They're just voting based on a general vibe (aka feefees).

that's what America wants apparently
24Nobody tell the rubes exactly what we’re going to do.
Ok, now tell the rubes.
16We know
13Of course it is
2No way.
4Pretty sure they're joking. Not sure how much, but that seems to be the tone they're giving. "Oh yeah let's do the thing they said we would haha". It's not very funny but it's like someone getting a gun and saying "Time to shoot up a school hurr hurr"
Not that that makes it any better, but still. Something important to keep in mind, you go blasting this around with "look he said it!" And they're just going to laugh at you for
believinggetting upset.Edit: I'm not saying that this is okay at all but the guy in the article definitely has the tone of "oh yeah let's tell them we are gonna start up the murder machine out front" I understand that there are a lot of people that do stick to this rhetoric. But I pretty much guarantee that in the context of this article it's bait to get people to go "he said he's gonna start up his murder machine!" And then they'll go on some rant about liberals or whatever else.
The guy is still probably an absolute shithole but you need to be able to recognize when they are setting people up for a punchline that furthers their agenda.
It's just like the church guys who stand outside with the old "god hates (slur)" signs. They believe it, but fighting them or screaming about it just pushes their agenda. Condemn them, call them out, but hysteria just gives them ammunition.
-92Have you learned nothing in the past 9 years? These people have been telling us who they are and what they plan to do, BELIEVE THEM! Giving them the benefit of the doubt or saying they are joking is just allowing them to continue to move the goal posts. We just gave the Presidency to a man that has been telling us he wants Nazi generals, cops to have a "purge day" of American citizens, wants to use the US military and National Guard against citizens and he 100% meant all of it. And we just granted him the power because the media and apologists continue to give these Fascist assholes cover.

63Can't wait for him to nuke a hurricane tho. Maybe it will cause nuclear war, but might as well at this point.
-11
Jesus fucking Christ.
15Additional edit: idfk man. Scream it from the rooftops if you want to. Clearly something needs to be done about this shit, but I can tell straight off from this article that it's just a tee-up for them to go "look how dramatic the snowflakes are" or whatever bullshit they're spewing this week. Fuck these guys, and all the bullshit they want to pull, but playing into their hand like that is hard to avoid.
