  1. Project 2025 ex-director accuses Trump campaign advisers of ‘malpractice’

    Rightwing criticism of Trump’s campaign staff has grown in recent weeks as the former president has sought to at least appear to moderate his position on some policy proposals and issues, including reproductive rights.

    While there has been little direct criticism of Trump himself, a #FireLaCivita hashtag trended briefly on social media.

    #Dans, who served for two years in the White House under Trump,
    spearheaded work at the conservative #Heritage #Foundation thinktank that produced #Project2025.

    The 922-page tome proposes an array of radical plans to reshape government – such as replacing tens of thousands of career civil servants with Trump loyalists, abolishing the education department and drastically restricting abortion and contraception.

    The document has been described as a manifesto for Trump’s presidency,
    and #Kevin #Roberts, president of the Heritage Foundation, said in a podcast that the project would herald “a second revolution that would be #bloodless if the left allows it to be”.

    As criticism grew, Trump eventually responded by claiming to disown the plan,
    falsely stating he did not know its architects
    – even though most used to work for him and he gave the keynote address to their annual conference
    – and calling its suggestions “ridiculous and abysmal”.

    LaCivita described the project as
    “a pain in the ass”
    at the Republican national conventionin Milwaukee.

    A New York Times/CNN poll found 75% of American voters had heard of Project 2025,
    while 63% strongly opposed its contents.

  2. White supremacist, Hitler fan, and far-right political pundit
    #Nick #Fuentes shockingly revoked his support from Donald Trump’s campaign early Friday,
    announcing on social media that he and his allies believed that the presidential bid is headed for a “catastrophic loss.”

    💥“Tonight I declared a new Groyper War against the Trump campaign,” 💥Fuentes wrote on X (formerly Twitter) shortly after midnight, referring to a group of far-right activists known as groypers.

    Fuentes explained that he and his far-right squad of online trolls
    “support Trump” but that they view his 2024 campaign as being “hijacked”
    by lobbyists, consultants, and donors that had aided Trump’s 2016 Republican opponents.
    All in all, Fuentes believed they were “blowing it.”
    “Without serious changes we are headed for a catastrophic loss,” Fuentes wrote.

    “This is NOT a purity spiral, this is about living up to the AMERICA FIRST credo put forth by Trump in 2016 which will ensure VICTORY in 2024,” Fuentes continued.
    “On Monday I will present a detailed statement of the facts, a mission statement, and a plan of action on my Rumble channel. STAY TUNED.”

    In another post two hours later, Fuentes shared a screenshot of trending hashtags on Truth Social, including “#GroyperWar2”, “#FireLaCivita,” and “#FireWiles,”
    the latter two of which refer to senior Trump advisers Chris #LaCivita and Susie #Wiles, who helped engineer Trump’s political resurrection following his loss in 2020.

    “We haven’t even started,” Fuentes captioned the screengrab.
