Secret recording catches Project 2025 architect revealing plans
Raw StoryA key architect in the Heritage Foundation's Project 2025 boasted in a secretly recorded interview that he and his allies are working to "destroy" the independence of federal agencies that have been in place for decades. CNN reports that Russell Vought, a former Trump administration official, told undercover left-wing activists that the team behind Project 2025 is working on drafting hundreds of executive orders that he argued would fundamentally change the relationship between executive brand agencies and the president of the United States. Much of Project 2025 dealt with undoing reforms that were put in place after the resignation of President Richard Nixon to prevent presidents from using executive branch agencies as tools to attack political opponents, as Nixon allegedly did with the Department of Justice and the Internal Revenue Service. Former President Donald Trump has denied having any knowledge of Project 2025, even though multiple people who authored sections of the project's manifesto served under his first administration.
