Among its many troubling proposals for reshaping the federal government, Project 2025 also reaches into your personal relationships, aiming to use government power to shape them. It advocates making the traditional heterosexual nuclear family the "center" of the next Republican presidency's platform. The plan includes a series of initiatives to elevate a Christian nationalist perspective of family while sidelining non-traditional families, which now represent the majority of American households. “We have very limited protections in terms of a social safety net for American families,” says Melissa Murray, professor at New York University and a leading expert in Family Law. “What Project 2025 proposes to do is to make these available only to certain kinds of families.”

    Literally ALL of the GOP have to go. We can’t afford for ANY of them to hold office EVER!!
  • This is not a winning hand for DonaId. Nobody wants him and his super weird and ultra creepy Project 2025 minions inside their bedrooms.

    Hitler wanted to increase the number of Aryan marriages and raise the birth rate. He tried to accomplish this by: Introducing the Law for the Encouragement of Marriage in June 1933 which gave newlyweds a loan of 1,000 marks and allowed them to keep 250 marks for each child they had. Giving incentives to women who had a large number of children, such as the Motherhood Cross which awarded bronze for four children, silver for six and gold for eight or more. Making abortion illegal in 1933. Ensuring contraception was difficult to obtain. Taxing single men and childless families heavily. Sound familiar?
  • "Pro-Family" as long as that family fits the approved model. Absolutely sickening.
  • @ddee1263
    Vote blue all the way down ballot
  • @JusticeFALL-USA
    VP Kamala Harris and Tim Walz will put an end to Project 2025 for sure. It's called proactive politics for ALL.
  • @aivijk
    Dump ConOld Trump. 💙Join 🇺🇲🇺🇸 Republicans For Harris 🇺🇸🇺🇸Republicans For Harris is growing everyday, our party was destroyed by Trump we want him and the " Greed Seed" out of our party. We intend to take it back, vote blue until we do.
  • @sopala3952
    Thank you Velshi…A series elaborating these policies inside this project should be verbalized and exposed as most people will never get around to reading these voyeuristic policies.
  • @TkDatNinja
    Project 2025 is HEAVILY giving The Handmaid's Tale.
  • @joko09010
    I remember people mocking Hilary Clinton when she said “It takes a village to raise a child.” That is an very accurate statement and it’s what helps make us a unified, equitable, and inclusive society.
  • @TruckSteel-375
    Believe it, if they get a chance to do the stuff in Project 2025, they will for sure. Vote Blue to protect our democracy! 💙
  • Can not wait until we never hear from tRump or his ilk, again. Vote Blue up and down the ballot. Harris-Walz 2024
  • @jackchow397
    yes MSNBC, this is how you call out their BS. Bring out their book and page number so everyone can see what they're up to
  • Remember, we ALL have a job to SPREAD THIS MESSAGE: 💙🇺🇸💙 Don't just GET REGISTERED, but make sure you didn’t get PURGED FROM VOTING! 🚨 Everyone needs to check again just before the deadline! Especially Ohio, Georgia, Texas and Florida voters! 💙🇺🇸💙 We all have a duty to get at least one person who wouldn't vote to the polls! 💙🇺🇸💙 Don’t get confident! THE GOP IS PLANNING A COUP, WE NEED A LANDSLIDE WIN!
  • Thank you for informing viewers of what is included in Project 2025. The public needs to know what this says. Families are created with love by the members of that family, not because of who the members of the family are. Inclusion not exclusion. Harris/Walz 2024
