  6. Some have also raised concerns about whether it could increase the risk of fraud, since the money would be going to individuals rather than businesses. The admin has sought to crack down on #fraud in #SocialServices programs, particularly #childcare.

    The idea of paying #parents to stay home was outlined in #Project2025, the #conservative blueprint published by the #HeritageFoundation ahead of #Trump’s return to office, much of which overlaps with the admin’s #policy agenda.

    "Think tanks are as American as baseball, jazz & apple pie. They perform an unsung role in holding governments accountable at all levels."

    *Many* probably are perfoming that useful function.

    And then, there are the rotton apples like the #HeritageFoundation and the #FederalistSociety (less think tank), that have been working on what I call the #CounterReconstruction since their founding.

    Also, there is the institutionalized "initial economic sin:"

  11. To be clear, I’m not saying they >didn’t< care about suppressing trans people, I’m saying to them it was a relatively minor issue, but also a very useful emotive wedge they could drive between camps of feminism, and a way of shifting the Overton window.

  12. It's easy to just dismiss this stuff as the lunatic fringe, which it should be. Unfortunately, this is the organization that is now essentially running domestic policy for the executive branch of our federal government, and I'm scared we're all going to scoff and dismiss our way to the actual Handmaid's Tale. #HeritageFoundation #womenssports transiticsnews.com/p/after-pus

  13. "My god. The Heritage Foundation, which mercilessly attacked transgender kids in order to protect the "integrity of women's sports," is now attacking the legal basis for women's sports. The transgender student decision is barely 2 weeks old.

    It was never about female sports."

    "Advocates call for Kagan investigation on climate change bias

    Advocates are calling on the U.S. Senate Monday to investigate conflicts of interest from U.S. Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan. The advocates argued Kagan was biased in favor of climate science and should not participate in a consequential case that could determine the future of climate change policies.

    Leaders from the Judicial Crisis Network, the Heritage Foundation, the National Republican Lawyers Foundation and others wrote a letter to lawmakers on the Senate Judiciary Committee about concern over Kagan’s support for climate change.

    Justices on the high court are expected to hear Suncor v. Boulder County Commissioners, a case examining whether state and local governments can prevent fossil fuel companies from engaging in global emissions activities that contribute to climate change.

    (. . .)

    The advocates argued that Kagan’s authorship as part of the manual is evidence she is unable to make an unbiased decision in Suncor v. Boulder County Commissioners. The Constitution requires justices on the Supreme Court to recuse themselves from consideration of cases in which 'impartiality might reasonably be questioned.'

    Kagan did not recuse herself from consideration of the court’s petition when it was granted in February 2026."

    It is worth noting the #NZPol coalition of corruption’s strong connections to the US #AtlasNetwork #HeritageFoundation and its #Project2025 which oppose renewable energy, alternative modes of transportation and of course any alternative sexual orientation.

    Winston Peters and #NZFirst didn’t suddenly become obsessed with people’s genitalia and sexual orientation without being instructed by their political masters. Also never let NZF’s strong alliance with #ReformUK ever be forgotten.

Its current agenda is governed by a nihilist ideological movement: “Project 2025 is 900 pages, and 150 of them are about how to destroy the environment. This deregulatory agenda, written by former #trump government officials and #heritagefoundation staff, would strip away our rights to clean air, clean water, and a healthy planet.” #law earthjustice.org/article/what-

  21. My theory on the nature of the #Evangelist death cult that has captured the #US #government via the #HeritageFoundation: #Evangelists have adopted Marcionism, a belief that sees the creator god in the OT as the devil, & the world he created as the false world. In short, #Evangelism meets #RedPill.

  22. Hanging over the hearing was the legacy of #SCOTUS’ wave of rulings that have pared back #CampaignFinance restrictions over the years, including the 2010 #CitizensUnited v. FEC decision, which paved the way for unlimited independent expenditures by outside groups known as #superPACs.

  23. The Heritage Foundation is experiencing internal chaos as staff and conservative leaders demand Kevin Roberts’ resignation over his recent defense of Tucker Carlson and comments that blame “the globalist class” for attacking him. Roberts’s support for Carlson, who hosted a notorious white nationalist guest, Nick Fuentes, has ignited accusations of playing into antisemitic tropes. The controversy has sparked resignations from key figures, including members of Heritage’s antisemitism task force and prominent fellow Chris DeMuth, amid tense debates over religious participation and organizational values. This upheaval threatens the foundation’s unity and signals deep divisions over extremism and antisemitism within mainstream conservative circles. Will Heritage regain its footing?

  25. From 2014... How #USEvangelicals Fueled the Rise of #Russia’s ‘#ProFamily’ Right

    An alliance is born between #AntiGay, #AntiAbortion American groups and the #RussianOrthodoxChurch

    by Adam Federman, January 7, 2014

    Long excerpt [pay attention to the names named!] :

    "This rising #Russian social #conservative movement frequently invokes the argument that #ProGay and #WomensRights groups are puppets of the West, which is seeking to undermine Russian autonomy and interfere in the country’s internal affairs. At an annual meeting of journalists and academics presided over by Vladimir #Putin in Valdai in September, the Russian president said that European countries had strayed from their roots by legalizing #GayMarriage. He urged Russians to embrace the conservative values of the #OrthodoxChurch and other traditional religions and issued a warning to those who might want to challenge those values. 'Russia’s sovereignty, independence, and territorial integrity are unconditional—these are red lines no one is allowed to cross,' he declared.

    "Several #LGBT rights groups have been targeted under another new law, which requires any nongovernmental organization that receives funding from other countries for political activities to register as a '#ForeignAgent.' Failure to do so can lead to investigations, legal action or crippling fines. The implication is that these groups are not only agents of the West but also out of touch with everyday Russians.

    "The irony is that it is the new conservative vanguard—anti-gay, anti-abortion and pro–'#TraditionalFamily'—that has most successfully cultivated the West’s financial and institutional support. Scott Lively, an extreme anti-gay campaigner, all but took credit for the new law, calling it 'one of the proudest achievements of my career,' while #BrianBrown, president of the #NationalOrganizationForMarriage, visited Moscow with much fanfare just before the new law was passed. But the language of Russia’s anti-gay and anti-abortion movement seems to borrow most heavily from mainstream evangelicals and conservative politicians in the United States and Europe. Referring to the anti-abortion bill passed in 2011, Lyubov Erofeeva, executive director of the Russian Association for Population and Development, a women’s advocacy group, said: 'It was 100 percent clear that everything was copied from the experience of American #fundamentalists and conservative circles of several European countries where #abortion is forbidden or restricted severely.'

    "The church’s close ties with American evangelicals reflect a shift in policy. For much of the post-Soviet period, the Russian Orthodox Church held evangelical denominations at arm’s length, fearing that they would compete for influence within Russia. But as the church has consolidated its power, it has come to view the evangelical community as a partner. 'The #ROC realizes that the evangelical denominations are not their opponents but rather their allies in the relations between the church and the secular population,' says Olga Kazmina, a professor of ethnology at Moscow State University.

    " 'It’s a re-envisioned paradigm,' says Father #LeonidKishkovsky, head of the Orthodox Church in America’s Department of External Affairs. In many ways, it makes sense, he adds: both religious groups share an ideological commitment and have grown disillusioned with the way mainline churches have dealt with issues like gay marriage and abortion. 'But what I’m quite nervous about is the ideological core which actually motivates both sides,' Kishkovsky says. 'Where is the motivating force? Is it in faith? Or is it in political ideology?'

    "The Russian Orthodox Church’s chief emissary to the US evangelical community is #HilarionAlfeyev, a high-ranking bishop and chairman of the powerful Department of External Church Relations (the position previously held by #PatriarchKirill). In February 2011, the 47-year-old Alfeyev traveled to Washington, where he met with prominent evangelical and 'pro-family' leaders; and then to Dallas, where he addressed thousands of members of the Highland Park Presbyterian Church and emphasized the importance of 'creat[ing] new alliances,' especially around issues of marriage, abortion and the family. Alfeyev also visited the #DallasTheologicalSeminary and had an hour-long meeting with #GeorgeWBush.

    "The trip to Dallas grew out of an increasingly close friendship between church leaders and a small circle of American and European Christian businessmen in Moscow. Alfeyev’s visit was organized by #JerryFullinwider, an #OilExecutive and elder of the #HighlandParkChurch who, until recently, had business interests in Russia. Fullinwider, a member of the #KochBrothers’ circle of major donors—those who have given more than $1 million to #Koch-related causes—met Alfeyev through his friend Bob Foresman, head of #Barclays Capital in Russia. This select group of businessmen has unusual access to Alfeyev. In an interview for this article, Fullinwider described having dinner at Alfeyev’s private residence on a recent trip to Moscow. 'He’s a real busy guy,' says Fullinwider. 'He’s very, very hard to get in touch with unless you have a special number and you know the main guy who handles him, who’s a good friend of mine.'

    "Alfeyev’s first trip to the United States paved the way for others, and in October 2012 he delivered a lecture at Villanova University, where he received an honorary degree and paid a visit to the Milwaukee-based #LyndeAndHarryBradleyFoundation. One of the largest donor organizations of its kind in the United States, the #BradleyFoundation, with more than $600 million in assets, is known for its contributions to US conservative groups like the #HeritageFoundation and the #HeartlandInstitute. But its charity isn’t limited to home: over the last four years, the foundation has given $750,000 to the St. Gregory the Theologian Charity Foundation in Moscow, a new educational and cultural initiative founded in 2009 by Alfeyev, Russian #billionaire and pharmaceutical magnate #VadimYakunin, and #LeonidSevastianov, a 35-year-old international business consultant and head of Stratinvest.ru, a consulting and public relations firm. In 2009, through Alfeyev’s charity, the Bradley Foundation donated $150,000 to support the 'Day of the Family,' a recently created Russian holiday honoring faith and fidelity. The annual event has been championed by #SvetlanaMedvedeva, wife of Prime Minister #DmitriMedvedev, a staunch #AntiAbortion advocate.

    “We want to promote the idea of the unity between the West and Russia on the basis of common Christian roots,” Sevastianov told Inside the Vatican magazine in 2009. “We believe in this alliance among traditional Christian countries…and we believe that, with a united voice, we can be a strong force against the radical secular world which has become dominant in our societies.”

  27. Austinites join national protest against #Trump Administration

    Demonstrators across the country are planning to participate in the "#50501Movement.

    #AustinTexas — "On Wednesday, groups across the United States are preparing to shift an online movement in-person with planned protests against the Trump Administration.

    "In Texas, Austin saw a group of protestors at the Capitol building on Wednesday morning, with many demonstrators holding signs and flags with phrases like, 'Trump is bad news' and '#SaveOurDemocracy.'

    "This comes just days after a demonstration was organized in North Austin, where protestors gathered in response to President Donald Trump's immigration enforcement policies. Austin police later confirmed two arrests were made after the protests.

    "Referred to as the 50501 movement, the demonstrations were organized 'by everyday people,' according to a group called #BuildTheResistance, which advocates for Americans to 'defend democracy against the Trump Administration's attempts to systematically dismantle the U.S. government.'

    "The group is calling for 50 protests across all 50 states and has largely been organized with hashtags like #50501 and #BuildTheResistance. The demonstrations come in the wake of Trump's return to the White House, where he has since issued executive orders on immigration, tariffs on foreign countries and the U.S. Department of Education.

    "Many of the protests are planned at state capitols, but some will be held in other cities, as well.

    "The movement has websites and accounts across social media, including Instagram. The '50501movement page' has labeled itself the official Instagram account for the protests, posting fliers of events across the country.

    "Some fliers directly address #Project2025, a political initiative by the #HeritageFoundation organized to build 'conservative victory through policy, personnel, and training,' according to the project's website."

  28. Some dedicated folks in #AugustaMaine showed up for the #50501Movement protest today -- despite the original organizers backing out because of threats from "bad actors". Kudos to those hardy souls who showed up anyways! (And who are there until 8pm tonight)

    #AntiTrump protest draws hundreds to #Maine State House Wednesday

    "I went to bed and woke up in a different country," said one protester.

    Anti-Trump protest in Augusta still on despite confusion

    Two organizers dropped out, but the event, part of a nationwide day of protest, is still set for noon at the State House.

    "A protest against President Donald Trump scheduled for Wednesday afternoon at the State House is expected to go on, despite its two official organizers canceling because of “bad actors looking to spread hate, misinformation, and turmoil.”

    "Protests are expected the same day at state capitals across the country in response to orders made by President Trump in his first two weeks of his second term, as well as #Project2025, a playbook by the conservative #HeritageFoundation for changing American government and society whose contributors have been hired throughout the Trump administration.

    "The protest is scheduled between noon-8 p.m.

    "#KennebecCountyDemocrats and a group called the #WomensMarchAugusta, Maine, both took out permits for the protest and were set to act as co-sponsors.

    "However, on Tuesday both groups rescinded their official involvement in the event 'out of an abundance of caution.'

    "'The event planned for tomorrow has been infiltrated by bad actors looking to spread hate, misinformation, and turmoil,' the group said in a post on its Facebook page.

    “'We have pulled our permit with the Capitol Police and any one who shows up will be considered on their own. People should know we expect bad actors to show up to cause havoc please be vigilant and careful if you do decide to go anyway,' said the post.

    "However, another community member has since secured a permit, so the protest is still on."

    Of course #NOAA is one of the government services that #project2025 wants to scrap.

    Why #Trump and the #heritagefoundation wants to keep us ignorant of the world we live in is mysterious to me. Could be that the #Petrogarchs don’t like #climatechange talk

  30. One of the architects of #Project2025 praised #Stalin for overturning the no-fault #divorce law and introducing policies that were "designed to encourage family life." She also heaped praise on Stalin for outlawing #abortion and making divorce so "expensive and complicated" that he effectively instituted a "prohibition on divorce."

    Broadly speaking, it envisions a vast expansion of presidential power over the executive branch.

    Moreover, “Project 2025” seeks to dismantle certain parts of government, the administrative state, and federal agencies
    – while simultaneously mobilizing and weaponizing others.

    Finally, “Project 2025” is a promise to purge from government anyone who is not all in on the Trumpist project and replace them with loyalists and ideological conformists.

  36. Advancing White Supremacy Through Academic Strategy

    ... The report’s chapters describe the interwoven infrastructure of neo-confederate scholars, funded by the Charles Koch Foundation, who are training and recruiting the next generation of anti-civil rights Austrian economists. We explore the dangerous ideologies involved in this network, past and present, including recent influence on the violent Alt-Right and Neo-Nazis.

    Other chapters highlight the Koch family’s involvement in Nazi sympathizing, efforts to oppose the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s, and the present-day Koch network’s effort to roll-back opposing civil rights.

    We believe that understanding the Charles Koch Foundation’s material support for, and ideological confluence with, a network of Neo-Confederate and white nationalist scholars is integral to understanding the Koch-network’s past and present efforts to resegregate our nation’s schools, dismantle voting rights, and expand the prison industrial complex -- all at the expense of people of color. ...
