"Loyalty czars." As God created ordinary people in his own image, will Trump recreate the U.S.A. in his.
"Donald Trump’s adult sons, Donald Trump Jr and Eric Trump, are playing a central role in drawing
up a list of potential candidates to join a second Trump administration in anticipation of their
father’s victory over Joe Biden in November’s presidential election, Axios reports.
Dear God. "

Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump have become key players in the early planning for a second Trump administration's transition team, and would focus on vetting potential officials and staffers for ideology and loyalty, campaign aides and close allies to their father tell Axios.
Why it matters: Neither brother would officially run Donald Trump's transition team, but they'd take a lead in making sure government jobs are filled by Republicans aligned with Trump's vision for the party, the sources said.
[...]
Reality check: Even if they're annoyed, it will be hard for the Trump brothers or the campaign to be broadly effective without drafting off the outside groups' work.

The team will make every effort to distance Trump from Project 2025 recommendations
to maintain the fiction Trump is his own man. Just never forget...
B402, H/t sortagreen -- Project 2025 poses threat to democracy
[...]
If you’ve not heard of Project 2025, it’s very worthy of your independent investigation. Project 2025 is a playbook (a “comprehensive policy guide”) created for Donald Trump and his minions to use in the first 180 days of a second Trump administration. The far-right Heritage Foundation proudly takes credit for facilitating the 887-page document on how to turn a democracy into an authoritarian country.
While editing Project 2025, Paul Dans and Steven Groves had assistance from 34 authors, 277 contributors, a 54 member advisory board and a coalition of more than 100 conservative organizations (including ALEC, The Heartland Institute, Liberty University, Middle East Forum, Moms for Liberty, NRA, Pro-Life America, and the Tea Party Patriots).
Project 2025 represents a serious effort to make America a fascist country if Trump returns to the White House. The Trump campaign recently posted (and later deleted) a video on Trump’s Truth Social media account depicting the former president’s 2025-2029 administration as a “Unified Reich.” (That phrase evokes Adolf Hitler’s Third Reich, which ruled Germany from 1933 to 1945.)
You can download the full text of Project 2025’s “Mandate for Leadership” from the organization’s website. The manuscript spells out what Trump should do from January 20 to July 18, 2025. Its 30 chapters are a disconcerting read.
Among other things, Project 2025 proposes to eliminate the U.S. Departments of Education and Commerce, deploy the U.S. military whenever protests erupt, and dismantle the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security. The federal government would also remove all protections against discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity, and would terminate all affirmative action policies and diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives.
Additional mandates include: siphoning off billions of public school funding, funding vouchers to pay for private school tuition, phasing out public education’s Title 1 program, gutting the nation’s free school meals program, eliminating Head Start, banning books, suppressing any curriculum that discusses the evils of slavery.
Project 2025 also calls for banning abortion (which would make women second-class citizens), restricting access to contraception, forcing would-be immigrants to be detained in concentration camps, and eliminating Title VII and Title IX of the Civil Rights Act. The Trump administration would recruit 54,000 loyal Republicans to replace existing federal civil servants, and would end the separation of church and state, a bedrock constitutional principle.
In a Politico article from February, Alexander Ward and Heidi Przybyla described Project 2025 as an authoritarian Christian nationalist movement and a path for the U.S. to become an autocracy. Several legal experts have indicated implementing the 180-day plan would undermine the rule of law and the separation of powers.

Just maybe there was a unconscious reason why i duplicated the article in that stuffed up post. For
all who feel democracy is worth fighting for, as so many felt in September 1939, it is a serious situation.
