Trump taps key Project 2025 architect Russ Vought to head budget office

Hindustan Times  

* Trump taps key Project 2025 architect Russ Vought to head budget office Vought to help set budget priorities, roll back regulations * Vought was OMB chief during Trump's 2017-2021 term * Vought has played a major role in Project 2025 By Gram Slattery and Tim Reid Nov 22 - U.S. President-elect Donald Trump has chosen Russ Vought, a key architect of "Project 2025," the controversial conservative plan to overhaul the government, to be director of the U.S. Office of Management and Budget, a powerful agency that helps decide the president's policy priorities and how to pay for them. Since Trump left office, Vought has been deeply involved in Project 2025, a series of detailed policy proposals for Trump's second term drawn up by hundreds of high-profile conservatives. DAY ONE PROPOSALS During the election campaign, Trump's Democratic opponents made a concerted effort to raise public awareness of Project 2025 among voters, warning it was a blueprint for a hard-right political shift they said would occur under Trump. Trump spokesperson Karoline Leavitt said Trump never had anything to do with Project 2025, and that all his cabinet nominees and appointments were "whole-heartedly committed to President Trump's agenda, not the agenda of outside groups."
