On the WarRoom program, Paul Dans and Steve Bannon recently discussed Project 2025, which offers a pivotal shift- back- towards citizen-led governance, reasserting the principle of consent of the governed in American democracy. By empowering the participation of everyday citizens and dismantling bureaucratic overreach, it aims to restore accountability and transparency in the government. Citizens are envisioned as active agents in shaping policy and holding leaders accountable, marking a departure from the interests of the elite.

This initiative seeks to bridge the gap between government and the governed, ensuring that decisions reflect the people's will. Through Project 2025, citizens are invited to reclaim their role as governance architects, fostering a renewed sense of democratic engagement and civic responsibility.

But not everyone is excited about such a plan.

Dans and Bannon also talked about the weaponization of the legal system by the Biden administration, particularly targeting President Trump and conservative initiatives like Project 2025. They argue that the Biden administration, especially through Attorney General Merrick Garland, has misused the Department of Justice to suppress political opponents in ways reminiscent of authoritarian regimes. This includes legal actions against Trump and conservative media outlets like Gateway Pundit, which they see as attempts to undermine conservative influence.

Dans emphasizes the need for conservatives to respond to these attacks by organizing and preparing for future governance through initiatives like Project 2025. This project aims to dismantle the permanent bureaucracy in Washington, known as the administrative state, to restore what they see as constitutional governance. They believe that the current bureaucracy operates independently of democratic oversight, sustained by media, big tech, and financial interests, and needs to be taken apart to allow for more democratic governance- thereby removing power from the people.

Bannon and Dans also highlight the importance of having a detailed, prepared strategy to implement conservative policies effectively when Trump wins another term. They stress the necessity of new ideas and people in government to replace the entrenched bureaucratic systems.

Recently, corporate media have demonized Project 2025, using fear-mongering tactics to scare voters. This project is merely a proposal aimed at reforming the government- which is American civics. Opponents likely fear Project 2025 for its comprehensive and ambitious agenda to transform the federal government.

Reasons for their fear could include opposition to:

Dismantling the Administrative State: Supporters argue this would reduce bureaucratic inefficiencies and return to a more constitutional government.

Consolidation of Power: Proponents believe giving the President more direct control over various agencies would streamline decision-making and improve governance efficiency.

Policy Shifts: Supporters see Project 2025 as promoting conservative agendas, such as reducing regulations and reversing progressive reforms.

Political and Legal Tactics: Supporters accuse the current administration of using the legal system to target political opponents and seek to correct this perceived injustice.

Mobilization and Implementation: The meticulous planning and broad mobilization efforts indicate readiness to implement changes swiftly, which supporters see as necessary for effective governance.

Cultural and Ideological Shift: Supporters see Project 2025 as a return to traditional values and a correction of perceived liberal overreach.

Project 2025 represents a significant challenge to the current political and administrative status quo, aiming to dismantle entrenched bureaucratic structures, consolidate executive power, implement conservative policies, and shift the ideological balance of governance.
