ICYMI: Project 2025 Doubles Down On Effort To Evade Public Scrutiny In New, Secret Recording
Today, new reporting by CNN based on a newly released secret video, revealed Project 2025 leader Russ Vought and his staff discussing their plan to evade public records laws and ensure that the second phase of Project 2025 remains hidden from the public.
Project 2025 leaders are going the extra mile to hide the true nature of their radically unpopular agenda from the public. It turns out most Americans do not support their extreme plans to gut checks and balances, consolidate power within the Oval Office, and take away personal freedoms. If so much secrecy is needed, this begs the question, what are they hiding from the American people?”

The video, recorded by the Centre for Climate Reporting, is just the latest look at the extra measures Project 2025 leaders are taking to try and prevent the public from understanding their true intentions. First, Heritage Foundation President and Project 2025 leader, Kevin Roberts delayed the release of his book after significant public backlash. Project 2025 has not released their undisclosed “180-Day Playbook” for the next conservative administration and they’re even training future staffers to try and avoid public records disclosure laws. Now, the group is openly strategizing on how to move forward with its extreme agenda without transparency, accountability, or oversight.
