I'm a 68 year old woman. I lost my dad years ago. I lost my husband 3 years ago. I have no brothers and I have no sons. My fear is that I'll lose my house. I graduated in the early 70's. About that time women were ALLOWED to have a credit card in their own name without a dominant male to sign for them.

It's about my health and education, my hopes, my dreams, my plans superceding that of an embryo or fetus. When the government takes away your own right of your own body away from you then you are no longer a Free Citizen of the United States of America.

I work for a cattle producer in northern NM. Trump started this process rolling fast when he moved the BLM out of DC, away from legislators, to CO. All the older, more experienced personnel, including geologists and anthropologists, retired rather than making the move. Trump proceeded to replace them all with his supporters thus putting millions and millions of acres in the West under the control of mining and oil and gas interests. WHY THIS WAS AND IS NOT BIG NEWS EVERYWHERE I DO NOT UNDERSTAND. A thorough assessment of past and present BLM policies needs to be rigorous, constant and ongoing.

News about Agenda 47 (Trumps plan) & PROJECT 2025 (The Heritage Foundation) have been around for awhile but are just starting to show their "true colors" They are a far right Authoritarian Christian Nationalist group! (Not to be confused with TRUE CHRISTIANS) (who follow the teachings of Jesus) You can find plenty of info. on both Agenda 47 & Project 2025 on UTUBE or google . Please inform others about this! This is VERY important!
Sadly they all think its propaganda and wont happen but this year they have the angry mean Trump supporter and the groups that want to implement all their beliefs on us and they have the funding to cause real trouble. They have joined forces to shove it down our throats..
These are the same people who can tell you exactly which outfit each Kardashian wore in the past week! They can recite all of the top 'hit songs'. Heck, I can't even name the top 5 artists.
First time listening. I live near Asheville, NC. As a 65 yr old lesbian, I have been fighting this fight for a long time. I love sharing my story with young women. I was in the heart of the battle, baby. Still am.
We have begun voting Blue for every office. Normally, I would research to find who is the best candidate with the best background in their field. But, those good people seem to have been frightened out of the GOP to be replaced by truly inexperienced people with only one call - to destroy America.

And vote for Democrats up and down the ballot. Our Democracy depends on it!
I am retired with health problems and I worry about cuts to Medicare and Social Security, just about existing now. I have a disabled daughter that will be 43 in a few months. My grandson has Autism, he has been given a great help with programs from our government. These is hurting the most vulnerable.
I'm scared for the younger generation of women being forced to stay in abused Marriage and relationship. J. D Vance wants to do this and this is part of Project 2025
Please bring this message to churches too. That's the groups the GOP and RW extremists are purposely using as a faux grassroots campaign. We gotta meet them there. And stop them there too.
As a Canadian, whose mother was an American citizen, I despair about what is happening in the United States! The intention of the former president, who appears to be so self absorbed he may not appreciate the magnitude of what he is spearheading, and his enablers is as clear as the historical authoritarian blueprints they are following. The Flag, The Cross, and the Supreme Leader.
I am a Mayflower descendant (twice over) and a 15th generation American. My descendant, William Brewster, was the first individual to institute “separation of church and state” in Plymouth colony and I cannot stand by and watch this happen. None of us can. SUBSCRIBED. Now, where do I sign up?
Congratulations on your lineage @Catherine... My wife and I are Ancestry subscribers, working on our Family Trees since 1978, my paternal ancestors immigrated before the Revolution and we've traced four lines of my family to Patriots who served against tyranny to secure America's independence, including the freedom of religion. The founding principles of our country were outlined in the Mayflower Charter before The Pilgrims landed to establish Plymouth Colony. We cannot disregard the history of sacrifices made by our forebears to develop our democracy; we must stand united against those plans to destroy our government. Let's give hope to future generations for a lasting legacy to lead the world with peace and prosperity. Vote blue and stay true! 🇺🇸

@@Queenie-the-genieProject 2025 is basically born from what reichwing uber greedy rich want. They hate the poor, workers, women, minorities anybody and everybody that aren't just like them. Reichwing have always despised all FDR's New Deal programs ie, Social Security, rights for workers, environmental programs that protect nature, farmers, basically ANY government run program especially if it helps the regular and poor American, including Medicare, which was passed during LBJ's time in office. How do you not know this? Reichwing has been talking about cutting our Social Security program for DECADES!
The only thing I've read of big concern in regards to Project 2025 is they want to push to raise age requirement to 70 to get full SS payment and will apply to younger generation folks
Also think about how financially secure are you? Money in the stock market? Real estate? Cash on hand or in the bank? Gold coins jewelry? Own your own home? Just saying. My sense of security was stripped away in a hurricane-this is not going to be a natural disaster but an attack on our rights esp as women.
@@robynrobison4050 No, They also want to eventually end Soc. Sec., Medicare, & medicaid & privatize them.

I’m so glad I listened to this. I’ve been hearing about The Heritage Foundation for years so it seems so out of character that they’ve become such extremists. They have new leadership that has a dark vision of our country and I appreciate knowing where it comes from.
The Heritage Foundation was created by the Koch Brothers and they were influenced by the John Birch Society. They were adamant about destroying everything that FDR created and eliminating all regulations on business.
Why have democrat women not kept their eyes on the Supreme Court? I’m just a Democrat male with a wife, 2 daughters and 4 granddaughters. I’m worried about my granddaughters future. I’ve seen this coming for years. Hope you women can fix this before it really is too late. I’m doing my part but you gals are on the clock…..
I don't believe I'm alone in saying that even before Ruth Bader Ginsburg passed away my eyes were never off the Trump appointed supreme court. Many brilliant women and men have been working long, many times unpaid hours, coming up with strategies to repair not only our democracy, but what has been revealed as broken in our government.

I don't think that's fair. It's everyone's fight. Black women pushed President Biden over the hill in 2020.The younger men are getting pulled into this cult. There is a huge issue in helping them feel connected that they aren't feeling in their everyday lives.
Democrats fall in love and always look for mister perfect instead of working towards an objective (look at what's happening to Biden) while Republicans always fall in line as a means to get to their objective (Trump convicted but GOP all fall in line). Had they voted Hillary Clinton in 2016 then all this chaos wouldn't have been taking place.
@@annjuurinen6553 An awful lot of Trump believers are not old. They are believers that do not take the time to investigate to find truth rather than accept sound bites.

Thank you both for speaking about this. My friend told me about it earlier this year. I hadn’t heard about it. I’m telling my friends to read about it. We do have to spread the word. It is mind blowing that this could happen in present day America.

As I do not surround myself with Trump fans, I only know 2 people who are planning to vote for him. I've looked up Project 2025 and was absolutely outraged! Neither one of the 2 Trump people that I know have never even heard about Project 2025! Which I can't understand! But I've talked to both of them over and over and over again! I've sent them videos on Project 2025! I've explained it to them. They just don't want to listen to me, so I've had to end my friendship with them, one being my own cousin! How sad these people are not educated, and I really tried to reach them and make them understand what they would be doing to our country as we know it! I'm so grateful for your channel! Thank you for sharing everything you know with your audience! My entire family on my mother's side, which is over 300 people, are all voting for the democratic party! Thank goodness! Keep spreading the news as you are. It's a great thing that you're doing!
What exactly in Project 2025 outraged you, and why? As I have pointed out in other comments, virtually nothing Richardson attributes to it is true. So I am genuinely curious, since you say you have read it, what did you find outrageous? Quotations and/or page references would be helpful.
@@kathyguerra9049 That is absurd. Genuine question….what Project 2025 policy proposal do you find most objectionable and where in the document can I find this proposal?

My hope is that different women are running this show than the ones who lost the ERA. In 1980, I came out of bush Alaska to attend an engineering seminar in Juneau. I was so excited to attend an ERA supporters meeting. I went directly from AKDOT to the meeting in an Evan Piccone business suit and heels. I found 50 women sitting on the dusty carpet in Birkenstocks who shunned me. In the end I took off my shoes and stood in a corner. I tried to ask a couple of questions and got averted eyes. In fact they immediately started fake chatting about how to recognize "Christian infiltrators" by their clothing. That was the end of ERA support from me. I was doing it and they were sitting around on a dirty floor. I had broken into 2 labor unions first woman dispatched to field engineering related positions working out of helicopters and tents camps. A couple of years ago I wrote an article called "Why I Don't Wear Birkenstocks" documenting that horrible experience. My greatest hope is that women have matured beyond that ignorant time in our country so we can move ahead and include even the women who have perservered and achieved equality in life threatening circumstances. It looks to me that we are all being manipulated into life threatening peril.
At 37:38 the point about feeling hopeless: I didn't feel that way at all! I was already feeling more hope and inspiration knowing that so many passionate, capable people are on the same page!
Republicans allready signing folks up To replace ALL Government Workers with Dumpftd Loyalists...Regardless of experience..(and no doubt a hefty donation)... Dumpftd hires Only the BEST
Just like last time, he will most likely lose but claim victory anyway and start putting 2025 into action while the courts try to settle questions of fraud and lawsuits. Trump filed over 90 lawsuits last time to try to derail the vote. He's packed the courts now and with promises of lifetime appointments to positions of their own choosing some of those judges might be more inclined to side with him this time .He actually started pushing through 63% of the plan in 2016. Biden rolled back what he could but much of it including his strategically placed loyalists remain even now. DeJoy in the Postal Service is still trying to kill mail in voting today.
Thank you for presenting this podcast. I have been so worried about Project 2025. I am so worried of going back to the times my Mother lived in. The years most women did not have any rights. They couldn't have credit cards, own real estate in their own name, make decisions about their own bodies, many were raped by husband , stuck in abusive relationships.
As a woman 84 yrs old..Remember those days when my life was Kitchen,Kids and Cleaning..Never goin' back There..Divorced at 42 raisedc3 Sons as a Single Mom..Paid off my Home(Thank God) and have enough for my needs..Next will be Contraception followed by Women Voting..Feel Deeply for Those Struggling to raise families and Livelyhoods ...
This was a great presentation and gives me hope that there are so many people working to counteract the right-wing agenda. I just wish they had talked about what Project 2025 will be destructive of the environment (and therefore our health) and how it will stop progress in the fight against global warming. What kind of planet are we going to leave to our kids and grandkids?
I just deactivated Twitter. It's such a waste of time & energy. Social media is nearly all bots now, like the ladies said. Make a poster to put on the roadside or talk to a neighbor or family member. You will (hopefully) be a lot less frustrated & you will be doing something positive for the greater good.
Funny, I was just musing earlier today, without having heard this podcast, that we boomers are collectively living longer and able to give back so much more on a greater scale than our predecessors. Thanks for acknowledging that since a lot of negative messaging has been given to our generation.
Love this discussion! There are so many people who will waste ALL your time if you let them. The quicker you see where they are coming from, the quicker you escape.
You're not the only one. I have lost interest in some of my most intense passionate things like even playing my piano, I've been crying a lot, I'm worried about my friends who are in the minority groups, I am flabbergasted at the blindness and apathy of people who do not have a clue what is coming, at those who will not budge from their position that somehow this is a good thing. Our family is looking at ways to get out of the country, I have dual citizenship with Canada but it can be complicated. It's absurd that we should have to uproot our whole life. All we want to do is do our work and live and tend our garden and do our hobbies and raise our children. But I fear that this is another one of those times in history. So many people have had the same thing happen. I think we need to try to think positive, take a step back from the news, I would like to join some kind of a group doing something. What mailing postcards to people saying, read what project 2025 is, donate to candidates who are trying to fight this, I have done some donations. Somehow doing that helps you to feel somewhat empowered.
@@connielittle7214 I understand your feelings. I really do. But I will tell you that maybe this is a lesson that in fact we cannot control forces outside of ourselves. We can only do so much. Please value yourself, And the best thing you can do for yourself is to take a break from the news cycle. Take a walk. Breathe, keep busy with whatever things that you do that keep you busy. Hug your pets. Your kids never miss an opportunity to tell them you love them and please... Take care of yourself. Maybe have a hot bubble bath with lots of bubbles and put on some lovely music and just enjoy the moment because in fact that really is all we have in reality anyway. I can so relate to your feeling, but I can also understand that you have to take care of yourself. This too shall pass, I think ultimately it will be okay. Please take care. There are a lot of people out here who feel the way you do who care very much and who understand, And a virtual hugs to you.
Well, better not have any investment, because it could be said that it might be worth more next year or next, then it could be taxed now on that unrealized capital gains. (i.e. a house). Harris Plans to Institute 25% Tax on Unrealized Capital Gains.
I just made a clip from my desk top and shared it in my FB Group of 23K....the Victor Orban connection is key! thanks for sharing!!! Now it all makes sense!
13 counties want to secede from Oregon to Idaho because of MAGA politics. It's very sad to see this in this country. I've never witnessed so much division in this country (I'm 69).
So haven't the congressman been taking money out of the money we've put into Social Security all these years? They wanted money to fund XYZ and dipped in to those funds. I was told that quite a while ago. 😢
Thank you for giving me hope and helping me to feel less depressed. I really appreciated the advice to focus on the people who are the 70% and not to engage with those who are the time wasters. I have felt hopeless and beaten down. No More!
Excellent event full of information, passion, and hope! Project 2025 and its threat to democracy has me deeply concerned, and this event brought me the tools to educate others about it. I've never been part of a virtual even with so much energy and engagement from the participants. 35K is an amazing number. The Zoom Chat whizzed by so fast I could only read a few words here and there.
Just subscribed! Thank you for this. I especially liked the part of how to talk to people about this... That most people agree (with wanting to keep/protect our rights) and that most are unaware. That gave me the courage to forward this to my friends and relatives. I broke my own rule to never talk politics w them, but this is just TOO important. Thank you so much for doing this. Oh, also liked the pep talk at the end... Reeeeally needed that❣️
New sub here, my name is mary Im from Erie Pennsylvania. Yes Butler is an hour away. So many people ask me that.!? I guess I can understand thar with all "goings on". We have alot of farmland , these kids grew up rural America they grew up with guns. There were never any problems with guns...never . our rural neighbors are good people. I jhst dont understand.how one guy has so much influence over people. Our state mourns .
It's not one guy. Christians have been planning and carrying this out since the 1980's. They finally have a president and Supreme Court to carry it out. They had to have a majority of SCJ's to get it done. There are thousands of people that have already carried it out. 65% of it Trump did in his first 4 yrs.
Hi Mary, I'm a Democrat from the PNW and I actually miss the old republican party. They were conservative and favored the rich but they were not authoritarian and fascist. Bring back critical thinking in the republican party.
Trump and his supporters have won victory after victory these past 6-8 weeks - but - it should inspire and move us to work harder to get people out to vote against this authoritarian world view. We can’t - cannot - get discouraged or become cynical - that’s EXACTLY what they want - work, work, work, or they win. Our children and grandchildren - and us - must make sure this doesn’t happen.
Be more engaged with young folks in your lives. Check in with them. Love them with no agenda and they will remember THAT when you have something to teach them
Hey, western neighbor as I am on the coast just north of you. We used to be a purple state. With Amendments 3 and 4 on the ballot and Project 2025, can we turn it BLUE for this election cycle do you think?

Shhhhh. They don’t want anyone talking about that period of American history. In fact, Project 2025 would outlaw the teaching of slavery.
How is it possible that that many people have not heard of Project 2025? Good on you all for working on publicizing it more.
News about Agenda 47 (Trumps plan) & PROJECT 2025 (The Heritage Foundation) have been around for awhile but are just starting to show their "true colors" They are a far right Authoritarian Christian Nationalist group! (Not to be confused with TRUE CHRISTIANS) (who follow the teachings of Jesus) You can find plenty of info. on both Agenda 47 & Project 2025 on UTUBE or google . Please inform others about this! This is VERY important!
Most people don’t pay attention to politics.
Try watching some of those videos where people on the street are asked common-knowledge questions. It's terrifying.
Sadly they all think its propaganda and wont happen but this year they have the angry mean Trump supporter and the groups that want to implement all their beliefs on us and they have the funding to cause real trouble. They have joined forces to shove it down our throats..
These are the same people who can tell you exactly which outfit each Kardashian wore in the past week! They can recite all of the top 'hit songs'. Heck, I can't even name the top 5 artists.
First time listening.
I live near Asheville, NC.
As a 65 yr old lesbian, I have been fighting this fight for a long time.
I love sharing my story with young women. I was in the heart of the battle, baby. Still am.
Thanks for informing us. We are scared. Please vote 🗳️ blue up and down the ballot.
You have not been informed. You have been propagandized.
FEAR is not your friend!! Focus on education and hold the vision of the heart.
Fear shuts you down. We need to be informed and aware.
There is strength in numbers.
Git dem wagons ina circle, Pilgrim!
We have begun voting Blue for every office. Normally, I would research to find who is the best candidate with the best background in their field. But, those good people seem to have been frightened out of the GOP to be replaced by truly inexperienced people with only one call - to destroy America.
If the prospect of a Trump Presidency and the implementation of Project 2025 scares you, and it should, be sure you are registered to vote, make sure your friends and family are registered to vote , and help our older or infirm friends and neighbors to get registered and get out to vote. And vote for Democrats up and down the ballot. Our Democracy depends on it!
Its a cut to social security,. I dont want project 2025. !!! This is horrible.
It's also a cut to Active, Retired and Disabled Military benefits - both their healthcare, housing allowance, and disability payments.
@@jeanjohnson6443that would affect my cousin and her husband!
I am retired with health problems and I worry about cuts to Medicare and Social Security, just about existing now. I have a disabled daughter that will be 43 in a few months. My grandson has Autism, he has been given a great help with programs from our government. These is hurting the most vulnerable.
Itʼs far more than that - even worse - read it.
They have been pushing the ss and medi cuts for years.
I'm scared for the younger generation of women being forced to stay in abused Marriage and relationship. J. D Vance wants to do this and this is part of Project 2025
Talk to younger women!!! They werent alive for lack of contraception or back room abortions. Older women need to tell our/your stories.😢
And having dozens of kids because no contraception
@@babs18a What page is this on?
Please bring this message to churches too. That's the groups the GOP and RW extremists are purposely using as a faux grassroots campaign. We gotta meet them there. And stop them there too.
Exactly. Who in the world do they think they are to make these decisions for other human beings?
More videos on the affects this will have on SS, Medicaid, and Medicare. Keep pounding on this, over and over, Red Wine and Blue.
ACA and VA benefits
Programs will be cut or ended so millionaires and billionaires can have more tax cuts! Robert Reich has a summary of the 880 pages on TH-cam
and FEMA, early childhood education, climate research and solutions, all hope of commonsense gun laws, and so much else. Keep the info' coming!
As a Canadian, whose mother was an American citizen, I despair about what is happening in the United States! The intention of the former president, who appears to be so self absorbed he may not appreciate the magnitude of what he is spearheading, and his enablers is as clear as the historical authoritarian blueprints they are following. The Flag, The Cross, and the Supreme Leader.
I am a Mayflower descendant (twice over) and a 15th generation American. My descendant, William Brewster, was the first individual to institute “separation of church and state” in Plymouth colony and I cannot stand by and watch this happen. None of us can. SUBSCRIBED.
Now, where do I sign up?
Brewster is your ancestor. You are his descendant.
We knew what she meant
Congratulations on your lineage @Catherine...
My wife and I are Ancestry subscribers, working on our Family Trees since 1978, my paternal ancestors immigrated before the Revolution and we've traced four lines of my family to Patriots who served against tyranny to secure America's independence, including the freedom of religion. The founding principles of our country were outlined in the Mayflower Charter before The Pilgrims landed to establish Plymouth Colony. We cannot disregard the history of sacrifices made by our forebears to develop our democracy; we must stand united against those plans to destroy our government. Let's give hope to future generations for a lasting legacy to lead the world with peace and prosperity. Vote blue and stay true! 🇺🇸
My relative, Peter Brown was also in the mayflower & I am so scared about this project! I am 76 & live on social security!!
Project 2025 has been the top Google search, even more than Taylor Swift.
I wish TS would make a statement!
Good!
And now we have the Swifies and hopefully their families!!@
Heather Cox Richardson! My history and political guru AND a national treasure!
I just returned from Zimbabwe. I'd like everyone to experience what many years of "strong man" rule does to a society. Believe me. You don't want to go there. Society collapses. No infrastructure. Everything flows into a few hands. His picture is everywhere. It's his country with no accountability.
Listening to you guys and also Bernie Sanders about social security. Bernie says to scrap the cap on SSA and it would be funded for 75 years.
Please imagine, if your immune system decided not to turn out to protect you??? We need to CONSTANTLY BEWARE of threats to our Democracy or Republic(you choose, I won't quibble).
I am a 77 YO straight white female, retired. My friends are around my age. We are all financially secure, but do receive social security. More talking points on SS, please.
Why no social security?
@@Queenie-the-genieProject 2025 is basically born from what reichwing uber greedy rich want. They hate the poor, workers, women, minorities anybody and everybody that aren't just like them.
Reichwing have always despised all FDR's New Deal programs ie, Social Security, rights for workers, environmental programs that protect nature, farmers, basically ANY government run program especially if it helps the regular and poor American, including Medicare, which was passed during LBJ's time in office.
How do you not know this?
Reichwing has been talking about cutting our Social Security program for DECADES!
The only thing I've read of big concern in regards to Project 2025 is they want to push to raise age requirement to 70 to get full SS payment and will apply to younger generation folks
Also think about how financially secure are you? Money in the stock market? Real estate? Cash on hand or in the bank? Gold coins jewelry? Own your own home? Just saying. My sense of security was stripped away in a hurricane-this is not going to be a natural disaster but an attack on our rights esp as women.
@@robynrobison4050 No, They also want to eventually end Soc. Sec., Medicare, & medicaid & privatize them. Ban abortions with no exceptions, ban birth control, basically force women to get pregnant, push marriage, make divorce harder to get. If the husband abuses his wife she should stay with the abuser for the sake of family! ABSOLUTELY NUTS!!!
I know I asked my doctor yesterday if she had heard of 2025 nope that's what's scary she's going to look it up though Thank you ladies. 🙏😇🏳️🌈💙
SOMETIMES i WOULD ANSWER NO ALSO AND CHANGE THE SUBJECT BECAUSE IT IS SO UNCOMFORTABLE TO TALK ABOUT ESPECIALLYIF THE PERSON IS YELLING ANDREPEATING FOX NONSENSE.
No fear now… I’m energized, positive and ready to kick butt No one will take democracy away on my watch.
I came across this video randomly on TH-cam. Fabulous! Every speaker was excellent. Am a MAJOR fan of Ms. Cox Richardson.
Me, too. Today! Great start for the next few months of work to be done
Me too! Going to share with my friends!
I’m so glad I listened to this. I’ve been hearing about The Heritage Foundation for years so it seems so out of character that they’ve become such extremists. They have new leadership that has a dark vision of our country and I appreciate knowing where it comes from.
The Heritage Foundation was created by the Koch Brothers and they were influenced by the John Birch Society. They were adamant about destroying everything that FDR created and eliminating all regulations on business.
That has been the response some have given me, they worked with Obama, they can't be that bad. 🙃 things have changed.
Yes, I've looked and found absolutely no connection to Obama at all.💙💙💙
Why have democrat women not kept their eyes on the Supreme Court? I’m just a Democrat male with a wife, 2 daughters and 4 granddaughters. I’m worried about my granddaughters future. I’ve seen this coming for years. Hope you women can fix this before it really is too late. I’m doing my part but you gals are on the clock…..
I don't believe I'm alone in saying that even before Ruth Bader Ginsburg passed away my eyes were never off the Trump appointed supreme court. Many brilliant women and men have been working long, many times unpaid hours, coming up with strategies to repair not only our democracy, but what has been revealed as broken in our government.

I don't think that's fair. It's everyone's fight. Black women pushed President Biden over the hill in 2020.The younger men are getting pulled into this cult. There is a huge issue in helping them feel connected that they aren't feeling in their everyday lives.
Democrats fall in love and always look for mister perfect instead of working towards an objective (look at what's happening to Biden) while Republicans always fall in line as a means to get to their objective (Trump convicted but GOP all fall in line). Had they voted Hillary Clinton in 2016 then all this chaos wouldn't have been taking place.
That is a weirdly back handed comment
They want patriarchy and power.
They are old and out of date. They know that their cognitive faculties are failing and that they are angry.
@@annjuurinen6553 An awful lot of Trump believers are not old. They are believers that do not take the time to investigate to find truth rather than accept sound bites.
@@nancibishof6462 They’ve been indoctrinated by their radical churches

Any reading this and share with true friends: Learn what Project 2025 is!
Project 2025 & Agenda 47!
I cannot figure out how forcing someone to carry a pregnancy and give birth is not involuntary servitude.
Have you ever read The handmaids tale? SCARY
Especially since the agenda is 1 control of women and 2 fear of the "great replacement " of white men .
It’s very similar to forcing someone to donate a kidney.

It is. They don't care.

Fantastic women. So smart and outsmarting the right decisively....
THANK YOU FOR POSTING THE REPLAY 🎉
Thank you so much. I doubted the 70% number but turns out it’s closer to 90% of my friends. So I’m letting everyone know. Thank you!!!
There needs to be a discussion about the electoral college. This is not a democratic away of voting. This is a "Ruling Class strategy to controll the system. Why is it still in place.
Adding my comment to gain traction for this. We have to stand up as women against this movement.
Thank you both for speaking about this. My friend told me about it earlier this year. I hadn’t heard about it. I’m telling my friends to read about it. We do have to spread the word. It is mind blowing that this could happen in present day America.

As I do not surround myself with Trump fans, I only know 2 people who are planning to vote for him. I've looked up Project 2025 and was absolutely outraged! Neither one of the 2 Trump people that I know have never even heard about Project 2025! Which I can't understand! But I've talked to both of them over and over and over again! I've sent them videos on Project 2025! I've explained it to them. They just don't want to listen to me, so I've had to end my friendship with them, one being my own cousin! How sad these people are not educated, and I really tried to reach them and make them understand what they would be doing to our country as we know it! I'm so grateful for your channel! Thank you for sharing everything you know with your audience! My entire family on my mother's side, which is over 300 people, are all voting for the democratic party! Thank goodness! Keep spreading the news as you are. It's a great thing that you're doing!
Thanks for trying to educate voters.l from the other side. It's truly mystifying how they can continue to blindly follow that man.
What exactly in Project 2025 outraged you, and why? As I have pointed out in other comments, virtually nothing Richardson attributes to it is true. So I am genuinely curious, since you say you have read it, what did you find outrageous? Quotations and/or page references would be helpful.
@@scottcallahan6188Hello! Do you want the US to be like Hungary? P2025 is a playbook based on Victor Orban and his government.
@@kathyguerra9049 That is absurd. Genuine question….what Project 2025 policy proposal do you find most objectionable and where in the document can I find this proposal?
@scottcallahan6188 look in the table of contents. Excess power to the executive. Teach religion in public school (guess whose religion). Use the military to quell protests. Etc., etc., etc. Christian taliban take over.
Jess - The comments about "wasting time" is SO good for me to hear!! I'm the same in that I LOVE to debate! I will absolutely CHANGE my way!!!! Thank you!!
My hope is that different women are running this show than the ones who lost the ERA. In 1980, I came out of bush Alaska to attend an engineering seminar in Juneau. I was so excited to attend an ERA supporters meeting. I went directly from AKDOT to the meeting in an Evan Piccone business suit and heels. I found 50 women sitting on the dusty carpet in Birkenstocks who shunned me. In the end I took off my shoes and stood in a corner. I tried to ask a couple of questions and got averted eyes. In fact they immediately started fake chatting about how to recognize "Christian infiltrators" by their clothing. That was the end of ERA support from me. I was doing it and they were sitting around on a dirty floor. I had broken into 2 labor unions first woman dispatched to field engineering related positions working out of helicopters and tents camps. A couple of years ago I wrote an article called "Why I Don't Wear Birkenstocks" documenting that horrible experience. My greatest hope is that women have matured beyond that ignorant time in our country so we can move ahead and include even the women who have perservered and achieved equality in life threatening circumstances. It looks to me that we are all being manipulated into life threatening peril.
At 37:38 the point about feeling hopeless: I didn't feel that way at all! I was already feeling more hope and inspiration knowing that so many passionate, capable people are on the same page!
Harris is bringing HOPE 💙 🇺🇲
Please have on Ruth Ben Ghiat to also talk about authoritarianism and what it means for America. She is a very important voice.
You Tube “Politics Girl” - Ruth was on a few nights ago
Project 2025 talks about action on DAY ONE just like DJT talks about dictator on DAY ONE. I think some things will happen very fast.
some things COULD happen very fast, unless we prevent it
The whole plan is set to be played out in the first 180 days. It appears they already have the courts on their side.
Vote Blue 💙 Harris 2024 🇺🇲🥥
Republicans allready signing folks up To replace ALL Government Workers with Dumpftd Loyalists...Regardless of experience..(and no doubt a hefty donation)... Dumpftd hires Only the BEST
Just like last time, he will most likely lose but claim victory anyway and start putting 2025 into action while the courts try to settle questions of fraud and lawsuits. Trump filed over 90 lawsuits last time to try to derail the vote. He's packed the courts now and with promises of lifetime appointments to positions of their own choosing some of those judges might be more inclined to side with him this time .He actually started pushing through 63% of the plan in 2016. Biden rolled back what he could but much of it including his strategically placed loyalists remain even now. DeJoy in the Postal Service is still trying to kill mail in voting today.
Thank you. I’m talking to everyone about Project 2025 who will listen!
... Yikes ... I KNOW the problems, but the SOLUTIONS? Heather History gives us facts and context in a bracing "Let's get this done!" way 🙏
We will NOT go back!!
You are inspiring maybe the most important grass roots movement of our time. Fantastic! Keep it up! Vote blue!

Heather Cox Richardson rocks! Thank y’all for making me smarter by sharing your knowledge 💙 💙
Remember to comment, like, share, subscribe, and re-watch.
Thank you for presenting this podcast. I have been so worried about Project 2025. I am so worried of going back to the times my Mother lived in. The years most women did not have any rights. They couldn't have credit cards, own real estate in their own name, make decisions about their own bodies, many were raped by husband , stuck in abusive relationships.
As a woman 84 yrs old..Remember those days when my life was Kitchen,Kids and Cleaning..Never goin' back There..Divorced at 42 raisedc3 Sons as a Single Mom..Paid off my Home(Thank God) and have enough for my needs..Next will be Contraception followed by Women Voting..Feel Deeply for Those Struggling to raise families and Livelyhoods ...
At 84 experienced all those Things...
Thank you ladies!
Thank you Heather, the best!❤
This was a great presentation and gives me hope that there are so many people working to counteract the right-wing agenda. I just wish they had talked about what Project 2025 will be destructive of the environment (and therefore our health) and how it will stop progress in the fight against global warming. What kind of planet are we going to leave to our kids and grandkids?
I just deactivated Twitter.
It's such a waste of time & energy. Social media is nearly all bots now, like the ladies said.
Make a poster to put on the roadside or talk to a neighbor or family member. You will (hopefully) be a lot less frustrated & you will be doing something positive for the greater good.
Funny, I was just musing earlier today, without having heard this podcast, that we boomers are collectively living longer and able to give back so much more on a greater scale than our predecessors. Thanks for acknowledging that since a lot of negative messaging has been given to our generation.
Just found RWB and I love Heather Cox Richardson ! Thank you !
Me too! First time here. I'm trying to get facts without drama and learn how to help.
Thank you
Same! I've been spreading the word about Project 2025 to anyone who listens. New sub!
Same here! Harris 2024 🇺🇲 💙
Thanks RWB for inviting Heather to explain. 💙💙💙
Everyone…keep talking, keep sharing!
Love this discussion! There are so many people who will waste ALL your time if you let them. The quicker you see where they are coming from, the quicker you escape.
Thanks so much for the advice to keep walking. My mental health is suffering over this election. But that's what I need to do is keep walking.
You're not the only one. I have lost interest in some of my most intense passionate things like even playing my piano, I've been crying a lot, I'm worried about my friends who are in the minority groups, I am flabbergasted at the blindness and apathy of people who do not have a clue what is coming, at those who will not budge from their position that somehow this is a good thing. Our family is looking at ways to get out of the country, I have dual citizenship with Canada but it can be complicated. It's absurd that we should have to uproot our whole life. All we want to do is do our work and live and tend our garden and do our hobbies and raise our children. But I fear that this is another one of those times in history. So many people have had the same thing happen. I think we need to try to think positive, take a step back from the news, I would like to join some kind of a group doing something. What mailing postcards to people saying, read what project 2025 is, donate to candidates who are trying to fight this, I have done some donations. Somehow doing that helps you to feel somewhat empowered.
My mental health is so bad right now I don't want to live anymore
@@connielittle7214 I understand your feelings. I really do. But I will tell you that maybe this is a lesson that in fact we cannot control forces outside of ourselves. We can only do so much. Please value yourself, And the best thing you can do for yourself is to take a break from the news cycle. Take a walk. Breathe, keep busy with whatever things that you do that keep you busy. Hug your pets. Your kids never miss an opportunity to tell them you love them and please... Take care of yourself. Maybe have a hot bubble bath with lots of bubbles and put on some lovely music and just enjoy the moment because in fact that really is all we have in reality anyway. I can so relate to your feeling, but I can also understand that you have to take care of yourself. This too shall pass, I think ultimately it will be okay. Please take care. There are a lot of people out here who feel the way you do who care very much and who understand, And a virtual hugs to you.
To make Social Security better, Lift the Cap!
Well, better not have any investment, because it could be said that it might be worth more next year or next, then it could be taxed now on that unrealized capital gains. (i.e. a house). Harris Plans to Institute 25% Tax on Unrealized Capital Gains.
I just made a clip from my desk top and shared it in my FB Group of 23K....the Victor Orban connection is key! thanks for sharing!!! Now it all makes sense!
Very important conversation!!!
13 counties want to secede from Oregon to Idaho because of MAGA politics. It's very sad to see this in this country. I've never witnessed so much division in this country (I'm 69).
So haven't the congressman been taking money out of the money we've put into Social Security all these years? They wanted money to fund XYZ and dipped in to those funds.
I was told that quite a while ago. 😢
Heather is awesome.
Thank you for giving me hope and helping me to feel less depressed. I really appreciated the advice to focus on the people who are the 70% and not to engage with those who are the time wasters. I have felt hopeless and beaten down. No More!
Excellent event full of information, passion, and hope! Project 2025 and its threat to democracy has me deeply concerned, and this event brought me the tools to educate others about it. I've never been part of a virtual even with so much energy and engagement from the participants. 35K is an amazing number. The Zoom Chat whizzed by so fast I could only read a few words here and there.
Thank you. Shared on my social media... everyone should share it!
Thank you ladies. This was very informative. Keep at it. This country needs people like you.
Just subscribed! Thank you for this. I especially liked the part of how to talk to people about this... That most people agree (with wanting to keep/protect our rights) and that most are unaware. That gave me the courage to forward this to my friends and relatives. I broke my own rule to never talk politics w them, but this is just TOO important.
Thank you so much for doing this. Oh, also liked the pep talk at the end... Reeeeally needed that❣️
What a great conversation ladies! Thank you! 🙏
New sub here, my name is mary Im from Erie Pennsylvania. Yes Butler is an hour away. So many people ask me that.!? I guess I can understand thar with all "goings on". We have alot of farmland , these kids grew up rural America they grew up with guns. There were never any problems with guns...never . our rural neighbors are good people. I jhst dont understand.how one guy has so much influence over people. Our state mourns .
It's not one guy. Christians have been planning and carrying this out since the 1980's. They finally have a president and Supreme Court to carry it out. They had to have a majority of SCJ's to get it done. There are thousands of people that have already carried it out. 65% of it Trump did in his first 4 yrs.
Hi Mary, I'm a Democrat from the PNW and I actually miss the old republican party. They were conservative and favored the rich but they were not authoritarian and fascist. Bring back critical thinking in the republican party.
We need to get the assistance of the medical community and place very specific definitions of things related to pregnancy & pregnancy care.
Trump and his supporters have won victory after victory these past 6-8 weeks - but - it should inspire and move us to work harder to get people out to vote against this authoritarian world view. We can’t - cannot - get discouraged or become cynical - that’s EXACTLY what they want - work, work, work, or they win. Our children and grandchildren - and us - must make sure this doesn’t happen.
Even without Trump We still have to deal with like minded politicians and supporters
Well done. Thank you so much.

Hello from Blue South Central Orlando Florida!💙
Hey, western neighbor as I am on the coast just north of you. We used to be a purple state. With Amendments 3 and 4 on the ballot and Project 2025, can we turn it BLUE for this election cycle do you think? I am going to set up a table outside my library a day or two a week about it and try my darnest to change some minds!
This is my introduction to RWB and love the discussion.
thank you 😭💙 p25 has been scaring me for months
How to help? educate others, organize and vote.
