It is Happening Here: Trump Names Project 2025 Co-Creator As His OMB Director

Today, many people who voted for Trump, claiming he was going to be better for their personal finances, believed him when he said he had nothing to do with Project 2025. They ignored the people in the know who were telling them until they were blue in the face that he was lying to them.

These people, who ignored, did not care, did not watch or read a credible news source, or did not remember what Trump did after the 2020 election, including the attempted Domestic Terrorist Attack on January 6, 2021, because they were more concerned about their wallets, have taken us one step closer to a Fascist-Christian Nationalist-Hand Maid Tale State with the Trump pick of Russell Vought to serve as the Director of the Office of Management and Budget. 

For those who do not follow the news, Mr. Vought is the co-creator and Godfather of Project 2025, the Heritage Foundation Blueprint to centralize power in the Presidency, destroy checks and balances, and create a Christian Nationalist Semi-Fascist state all draped around the flag. 

People who know history remember that Fascist Italy, Spain, and Germany in the 1920s and 30s all had the support of the conservative elements of the religious establishment in their nations. 

Please check out this post with Vought telling reporters his plans and how Trump and his allies (surprise, surprise) lied to people about disavowing Project 2025)

Chilling is it not. 

This man, along with other MAGA picks with ties and sympathies of the American Mein Kampf Project 2025 agenda, thanks to uninformed people who rewarded the people most responsible for creating the conditions the American People suffer from (When was the last time you heard a Republican majority support immigration reform or a living wage for all Americans) in the first place, by voting them into office, are now in a position to turn back the clock to the Pre New Deal-Era and create a dystopian society that resembles the plutocratic Gilded Age with Fascist and Hand Maid's Tale overtones. 

People should also pay attention to the land transaction Texas has offered the incoming Trump Administration to construct concentration camps for their mass deportation schemes of violent illegal immigrants.

Where could this possibly lead? What can possibly go wrong?

To parody Sinclair Lewis, It is Happening Here. 

People need to beware and use the power of their voices and contact their representatives, imploring them to obstruct this reactionary take the country back to the 1920s agenda before Trump and his MAGA troops do lasting damage to the country. 

It is not too late.
