Project 2025 is emerging as the driving force behind the far-right’s efforts to shape policy and political priorities.

Our research reveals that this initiative is not only setting the agenda but also cementing its influence by stacking leadership positions with donors who have personal business connections to the Trump administration. This approach raises serious concerns about whether public interests are being sidelined in favor of private gain, as the transition team becomes a platform for advancing policies that benefit a select few rather than the broader American public.

The influence of Project 2025 was also on full display at the 2024 Republican National Convention, where its presence dominated the event. With speakers, advertisements, and policy platforms directly aligned with Project 2025’s goals, the convention served as a showcase for the group’s far-reaching impact on the party’s direction. As its content shapes the political discourse, it becomes increasingly clear that Project 2025 is more than just a think tank—it’s the backbone of a coordinated effort to push a radical agenda forward.
