MSNBC’s Ali Velshi Hosts an Entire Hour on ‘The Dangers of Project 2025’: ‘Brazen’ Plan for ‘Ultra Conservatism’
MSNBC host Ali Velshi dedicated an entire hour to breaking down the 920-page Project 2025 initiative on Sunday morning.
Project 2025 is an initiative organized by the conservative Heritage foundation think tank (which featured contributions from more than 140 former members of Donald Trump’s White House, according to CNN) The document proposes a drastic reorganization of the federal government — consolidating power to the head of the executive branch. The project seeks to reclassify tens of thousands of federal civil service workers to become political appointees — which would pave the way for federal government to enable Trump loyalists to enforce his policies, should he be reelected in November.
Velshi broke down the various elements of Project 2025 by discussing the most radical elements of the plan’s policies as well as interviewing experts such as historian Michael Beschloss and former Biden White House official (and current MSNBC host) Symone Sanders-Townsend. The host played a clip of Vice President Kamala Harris discussing the project before his opening monologue.
Okay, you heard Harris mentioned project 2025, which is the right wing 922 page manifesto to overhaul the American government should Trump retake the white House. It’s something we’ve covered extensively here on Velshi, on every single show since it’s been released. And coming up in the next hour, we’re going to go inside project 2025 for the entire hour. We’re reading the whole thing so you don’t have to. We’ll break down the details of some of the most important chapters with some of the smartest experts in each field….
Donald Trump’s authoritarian desires are well known, and hearing him say he’ll end voting is just the latest in a long string of examples, which also include the time he called for the termination of the U.S. Constitution during a Truth social rant in December of 2022, because doing so would help his personal legal causes. Although, as it turned out, the Supreme Court sort of did that for him and its unhinged presidential immunity decision. Should Trump win and retake the white House, we know what to expect. After all, we do have this 922 page playbook.
