Fox News initially claimed Trump had no connection to Project 2025 to avoid negative branding for him, despite knowing his close associates were deeply involved.
Project 2025 is a plan by Trump's associates to implement a series of conservative and MAGA-aligned policies, including significant changes to federal employment and governance.
Russ Vought is the architect of Project 2025 and has been nominated by Trump to be the director of the US Office of Management and Budget (OMB), where he will implement the project's plans.
Fox News later argued that Project 2025's ideas were essentially MAGA ideas, thus normalizing Vought's appointment as a continuation of Trump's conservative agenda.
Vought's role in the OMB allows him to implement Project 2025's plans through the federal budget, significantly impacting federal employment and governance.
Anna Paulina Luna supports Vought's appointment, viewing him as a patriot who will clean up Washington by removing non-loyal bureaucrats and bringing in new blood.
Tom Homan plans to use military forces to double the enforcement efforts if local law enforcement in LA refuses to assist in public safety threats and deportations.
Corporate media, like USA Today, initially fact-checked and dismissed claims that Trump was connected to Project 2025, attributing it to the Heritage Foundation instead.
Project 2025 is controversial due to its radical changes to federal employment, governance, and immigration policies, which critics argue are dictatorial and against democratic norms.

A new Trump pick, he's just nominated Russ Vought to be the director of the US Office of Management and Budget, OMB, another huge, huge job. I just wanna show you how the Fox propaganda works. You know who Russ Vought is.
is right. I mean, he's literally the architect of Project 2025. And that's when Fox learned after they tried to pretend that Donald Trump has nothing to do with Project 2025, that literally the architect is now going to run the Office of Management and Budget. He's going to be running OMB, which they're going to implement all of the Project 2025 plans through the budget. So then the same panel starts saying, well, actually,
These Project 2025 ideas are really just the same thing as MAGA ideas, right? After telling us, after telling we the people, oh, they know nothing about Project 2025, right? That was the whole thing. Trump doesn't know Project 2025. Here, play this clip. And Charlie, the left is already going crazy because of Vought's connection with Project 2025. Because, well, Project 2025, to be very clear here-
a lot of their ideas were just classic MAGA ideas. A lot of them were just classic. I mean, all of them. I mean, I read, well, please don't make me read Project 2025, but I've read some. Who wants to read Project 2025? Let's be honest here. But, you know, it's not, this stuff is not insane. This is like classic conservatism, MAGA conservatism. It makes a ton of sense. And, you know, and just so you know, like,
Well, Ben, maybe you're just saying Project 2025 and linking him. How do we know that? Well, take a look right here. This is literally the Project 2025 manual right here. The person who wrote the manual on Project 2025, the executive office of the President of the United States section about all of the kind of dictatorial powers they want to give to Donald Trump. Look.
It's Russ Vogt's name. And also, if you take a look at just some of the other individuals who have been brought to the Trump administration thus far, I mean, you're talking about Stephen Miller, Tom Holman, the Borders are, John Ratcliffe, Caroline Leavitt, Brendan Carr, and now Russ Vogt. These are all people who wrote Borders.
Project 2025. So then what you do if you're the Fox propaganda machine is you call in, as the Laura Ingraham show, call in one of the MAGA Republican congresswomen. Call in Anna Paulina Luna, who before becoming a congresswoman was a swimsuit model, a MAGA swimsuit model. Call her in. And then here, one of the things that Ingraham then tries to do is just kind of normalize this like, well,
This is what we wanted all along, right? I mean, he's the architect of the idea of how you get these Schedule F employees. And she uses all this terminology to mask the fact that what they're talking about is basically gutting the federal government, removing anyone who works there who's not 100% loyal to Trump. Here, watch this exchange on Friday night between Ingram and Ana Paulina Luna. Here, watch this. Let's play it. ...sense and
and now the labor position filled, OMB's filled with Russ Vought, who is really the architect of the idea of how to take these Schedule F employees and basically systematically remove them from the federal bureaucracy. That's scaring a lot of bureaucrats in Washington tonight
your reaction to all of this news, but especially Vaught, given his plans for the federal employment, which is a lot of people could have to be looking for real work.
Look, Russ could not be a better pick. I know that he's not only an absolute patriot, but he's very serious about cleaning up D.C. And part of the problem that we're having is, again, these deep state bureaucrats that think that they can outlast administrations and the will of the American people. And so you have to get new blood into Washington, D.C., from the secretary positions to the federal to the federal jobs. I mean, we just need a flush all the way through. So I'm very happy that President Trump
appointed him and frankly, I'm pretty excited to have backup in Washington, DC. - Now, one of the videos that we showed you, and I think, you know, was very, very, very compelling stuff. The Center for Climate Reporting, hat tip to them. Remember they went undercover and they met with Vote and Vote was like, look,
We're doing Project 2025. Okay, Trump's just out there. He thinks it's like bad branding for him. So he's just going to deny it. But in reality, we're going to really do the Project 2025 agenda. Here's what Vote had to say. Remember this hidden camera video? Here, play this clip. I expected to hear 10 more times from the rally, the president, you know, distancing himself from the left's boogie man of Project 2025. Yeah.
And you're not worried about that? I'm not worried about it. And so I see what he's doing is just very, very conscious of distancing himself from my brand. He's very supportive of what we do and know that we have an all manner of things that we do that's
even unrelated to product 2025. Let's face it, after a night with drinks, I don't bounce back the next day like I used to. Hey, I gotta be honest with myself, right? It feels like I have to choose between having a great night or a great next day. That is until I found pre-alcohol. ZBiotics pre-alcohol probiotic drink is the world's first genetically engineered probiotic. It was invented by PhD scientists to tackle rough mornings after drinking. Here's how it works.
When you drink, alcohol gets converted into a toxic byproduct in the gut. It's this byproduct, not dehydration, that's the blame for your rough next day. Pre-alcohol produces an enzyme to break this byproduct down. Just remember to make Z Biotics your first drink of the night, drink responsibly, and you'll feel your best tomorrow. Every time I have pre-alcohol before drinks, I notice a difference the next day. For example, after a fun night out with friends at like a local bar,
wherever we go I could still get up the next morning and hit the gym and I'll admit I was skeptical at first but I tried it at a dinner party with some friends the next morning I felt great ready to tackle the day ready to do more videos here at the Midas touch Network I kept hearing about pre-alcohol and wondered what it was actually like now that I've tried it I get the hype plus with their GMO technology zbiotics is continuing to create probiotics that tackle

Now, it would be nice if corporate media actually reported on these things the way we did. But remember what the USA Today headline was? The USA Today headline was this. Project 2025 is an effort by the Heritage Foundation, not Donald Trump. Remember they fact-checked us? Remember anyone who was saying, no, Donald Trump's 2025, it's all his people. No, take a look. This was USA Today, the corporate media. Fact-checked.
Midas touch lying. Other independent media are lying to you. Project 2025 is the Heritage Foundation, not Trump. We're like, these are all Trump's people. What are you talking about? It's the Heritage Foundation. Here's how the AP reported it. Biden assails Project 2025, a plan to transform government, and Trump's claim to be unaware of it. Think about that clumsy headline.
Biden assails Project 2025, a plan to transform government, and Trump's claim to be unaware of it. Like, they're struggling to even, they're helping Donald Trump with a sentence that's not even a sentence that makes sense. And there's other reporting. I have nothing to do with Project 2025, Trump says. As the outgoing chair of the Democratic National Committee writes, Jamie Harrison goes, Trump repeatedly lied about his connection to Project 2025.
Now, he's chosen one of its chief architects, Russ Vogt, to serve as the director of the Office of Management and Budget. He's one of many Project 2025 tied allies Trump is rewarding with jobs in the administration. And another one was Tom Holman. And just so you can see what Tom Holman, the border czar, was saying on Friday night when he was on right-wing media, he
This is again, borders are here. And he's saying, look, you know, remember I did a video where I showed you that the LAPD police chief is saying that he's not going to allow the LAPD to be used to do bloody mass deportations. Remember I did that video, what, a week and a half ago, two weeks ago?
So in this video, I'm about to show you Tom Homan, who was the architect of the bloody deportation section, which is not, it doesn't have a family values exception or, you know, somehow like Latinos for Trump think that they're immune to this. This guy's coming for you. He just says he is. They've said they are. And if you believe that there's going to be protection by the LAPD or any of them who say they're not going to be involved in the bloody roundups,
Here's the border czar, Tom Holman, saying, it's all right. We'll put the military in and we'll double the forces if the LAPD doesn't want to help. Period. Sagan, here, play this clip.
but don't cross the line and look i've said this if it will certainly be helpful to have local law enforcement assistance especially if things go bad quick and there's actually a violent situation where an officer's or or someone in the public's life is put at immediate danger i find it hard to believe a local law enforcement would respond to help but if they do they do but i i just can't like this councilman what what is he thinking
not helping the federal government remove public safety threats out of his constituency.
his number one responsibility is protecting community he represents so why would you push back on this we've been clear we're going to prioritize public safety threats so look we don't help get the hell out of the way if i got to send twice as many officers to la because we're not getting any assistance and that's what we're going to do we got a mandate president trump's serious about this i'm serious about this this is going to happen with or without you hopefully with you but if not it'll happen anyway you could put that all together um but
It was just so fascinating, fascinating is maybe not the right word, but to see Fox in real time now go, well, look, it's Russ Vogt. Oh, Project 2025. Well, actually, that's just really what the MAGA views were anyway. Oh, let's call in Anna Polina Luna. Polina Luna, what do you have to say about this? Folks, just open up your eyes, please. As I've said, we need to be clear-eyed about what's going on here, okay? They lie to you. Show this video, do me a favor.
