“You ever seen a document that could kill a small animal and democracy at the same time? Here it is. You know how when you download an app and there are hundreds of pages there that you don't read. It’s just the terms and conditions and you just click agree, right? Well, these are the terms and conditions of a second Trump presidency. You vote for him, you vote for all of this. Let's take a look.”
“I understand that you work for the federal government.”
“Yes, sir. I'm in the United States Department of Education. I'm a proud civil servant. And a proud union president.”
“She works for the Department of Education and she's a proud civil servant. Well, unfortunately for you, on page 78, Project 2025 calls for President Trump to purge the civil service of everyone who isn't a MAGA (Make America Great Again) loyalist. Are you a MAGA loyalist?”
“No, Kenan. Absolutely not.”
Thompson, armed with a voluminous book conspicuously labeled 'Project 2025,' engaged with a diverse group of individuals via video calls. These interactions highlighted those who could potentially be impacted by the Heritage Foundation's Project 2025.
Thompson emphasized the power of the ballot, adding that the potential outcomes outlined in the 'Project 2025' book could be averted by casting their vote for Kamala Harris on November 5.
