I hoped knowledge of Project 2025 would spread like wildfire and motivate people to fight to prevent it. If the democratic base doesn’t know (or doesn’t care), I feel we’re dooming ourselves. It’s not unreasonable to worry this may be our last legitimate election.
Sounds like we have some work to do in getting the word out about Project 2025. Have shared it with a number of friends and family members and I know by their reaction, they are sharing also.
Print out some of the more drastic and horrific steps the GOP and Trump want to do in the Project 2025 pages and then print out on the same paper equal amounts of things Biden wants to accomplish in his next four years and hand these out to every person you see, or visit while canvassing. Show the people the contrast.
We must not let the threat of violence silence our voices and our voting. More than ever before we must speak out!
I have been wearing this "Reject Project 2025" t-shirt recently 👇
The Constitution is what it's been for over 200 years and it's worked fine until the past few decades. It's the PEOPLE and our lousy public school system who can't keep up with modern times, don't blame the Constitution for incurious, uneducated, misinformed people.
I feel we’re screwed either way, bc I’m also worried that if Biden wins the reaction will be worse than on Jan 6th. Basically, Donald won’t take “no” as an answer.
Well, that’s certainly defeatist! Are you saying that we should just give in because the right is threatening violence? How cowardly. That’s what they want. They think that we are cowards and will give in to all their demands, even though there are more of us than there are of them. You ought to listen to the women who are beginning to fight for our democracy and for our freedom, led by Heather Cox Richardson and others like her. I’d rather be dead than live in the kind of country that filthy Trump and his adherents would govern. We are facing exactly what the Germans and others faced 90 years ago, and we, the decent and honorable people of this country, must prevail!
I am 77 years old and IF I COULD, I would leave my America if trump wins. I cannot because of my age, but I hope people realize what trump's vision for America is. Vote blue!
Yeah but having seen the destructions on womens and childrens sex based rights ;imposed by current ideologues in power behind the scenes manipulating funding; supposedly supportive of working class and struggling women single Mothers and older women and girls rights being erased effectively given away to men - changes to title 9 impose limits on biological womens legal/ family : sex based rights - to suit the medicine industrial estate; via manipulation of womens reality via adopted pronouns and platitudes - they coopt our hard fought for rights and our economic democracy via globalism amd essentially this new bent for neoliberal economics ; "left " is not left anymore and theyve coopted women to playact feminism; left and right are All living off the backs of poor and disenfranchised ; women ! the new "handmaidens" and idjots live in both both camps of politics - btw not a fan of Trump so do not assume Im bigoted or right wing ; But the real feminists and lefties are not real anymore ;no choice left but to vote for womens sex based rights including our jobs and prizes and safeguards
Defeatism helps no one. The Dem base made it clear they won't let a couple of disgruntled elites take away their primary votes for Biden and I am certain they won't let Trump take their vote for Biden this November. This time we are gonna be ready for them.
But, a decent president would have stepped up to stop what was happening on January 6. Trump caused it with his words. No National Guard call up because it was exactly what he was hoping for and why he stood there just watching it all play out on TV. I wonder which of his judges will stop that trial! Oh wait, if he wins, he can just stop it himself! VOTE BLUE!
There's a name for the angst many feel right now: Premature Capitulation. It's a strategy of making your opponents so depressed and fatalistic, they give up before there's even a fight. It worked in Nazi Germany. We must not let it dissolve our resolve.
The Republicans are pushing the narrative that the election is over and trump will win in order to claim fraud when Biden blows him off the map with a strong win. Don’t buy into their conversation.
I think voters are underestimating the ongoing foreign interference. Russia is absolutely involved in spreading lies, along with the republican party, on social media and everywhere else. It has never stopped since 2016, but now the foreign spies know better what to do/not do. It's a total stealth/bot operation and you better believe that foreign hackers are very busy right now. Trump is also trying to buy this election, like always, but bribery and corporate-owned politicians/judges are legal, so who cares??
If Trump does not lose in a landslide victory for Biden, it will be due to foreign interference. If he is elected, may God help America and the rest of the world. He is indeed the most dangerous person and he will only win by cheating.
I'm fed up with that filthy rotten criminal and the ones who support him.
NO! Not so. We The People must not be held hostage by the evil MAGAs. We can vote for Democracy or we can vote for Authoritarian rule. Look at what happened in 1930s Germany when they got suckered into voting for authoritarian rule. Nothing good can come of it.
I'm an antique and may have chosen alternate verbiage...but , sadly, I cannot disagree with your comment!....somehow we have.to keep.true to what we believe in so strongly.
I actually find it more newsworthy that Dems are keeping massive chaos intraparty by fighting over the ticket's candidate and talking contested conv. Pull out revolver, shooteth thyself in foot.
The thing I like about it being in People Magazine is they have condensed it and made it into a readable form for regular people. (Non-lawyers, non-politicians, non scholastics.) It’s easier to manage reading their 5 pages than P 2025‘s 920 pages! This makes me think People might get more readers interested in reading about Project 2025 than other places, and that can only be good! To People Magazine I give: Respect!
I been sitting here,thumbs twiddling, ready to volunteer at DNCHQ, since the debate. But , some dems out there would ather talk about the top of the ticket and contested convntions. They are killing my spirit, and a lot of others I expect. Just when I am ready for a final push into Nov, they try to burn down our party. FAFO. Youre doing your best to lose in nov.
We are Doing ALL by Talking about the Top of the ticket how important that IS + VOTE BLUE Top down & Dangers of Obscene Traitorous Project 2025-how it Destroys democracy! That Gets folks attention and Taking Action.
Speak for yourself, MIKE. Republicans have fought every sane effort the Dems have made to make it safer and saner for everyone and if DJT and his cult get back in the lead it will be FAR worse for women and everyone but the white male rich. Dems need to win by a big margin in the House and the Senate to truly make this a safer and saner world.
What I don't understand is how these women who are married to these guys, who are so misogynistic and literally, must have hate toward women. They want women to be subservient because they know that women (like Kamala) will not put up with Vance's BS. For someone, anyone, to condone the "no exception" for rape and incest. That is plain sick and makes me want to vomit. I will never bow down to a man. Vance's wife is subservient and takes it. These two are both narcissists at their best. These women are trapped by money and the need for love. They are destroying our values as women of freedom. It's deplorable.
Fundamental and evangelical Christian churches hammer a lot of stuff into women and keep preaching it. Especially the Southern Baptist Convention. It is called brainwashing. It happened to me.
SBC is total patriarchy; women are never allowed a leadership position. The wife of senior pastor at my old megachurch is a MUCH BETTER preacher than her husband. He is uppity and revered. Women are forbidden from teaching men. A class of young boys (or coed) must either have a married couple or male teachers. Divorced women are definitely treated differently; it's subtle though. Sexual harrassers are tolerated and complainants are fired from church staff. I spent a lot of time at this church during a difficult marriage and post-divorce. Even worked there part time. I absolutely could not see it at the time - how brainwashed I was. The scripture is 🍒-picked and some parts of the BIBLE are never preached about at all. I always found that strange. When a woman in that church makes a complaint or asks for help from a pastor (there are many), she is either rebuffed as a second-class person or manipulated. People knew my X was bad, but made me believe he would change. I hung on for a long time.
The SBC became more political; that's why Beth Moore left. She's another great preacher who was always just "a Bible teacher." I began to see much less separation between church and state. The preaching says homosexuals are welcome, but that is not true. A gay person in that church will be subjected to conversion therapy. Oh yeah, look out, if the sick filthy criminal wins a manipulated election, conversion therapy for queers will return with a vengeance!!
I quit going in March 2020 when pandemic began and the crap in my head from that church began to clear out. I completely understood I'd been brainwashed/gaslit..
Never went back to ANY church and now have my own unique relationship with God, absolute freedom of worship!
I don't take that freedom for granted; we might lose it.
I know how you feel. I stepped away from the church for quite a while. I was raised in the Lutheran faith. I was following a liturgy, which seemed like it was canned. I did not truly understand what a real relationship with God was when I was back with my ex-husband, who is in recovery from addiction. I divorced him and lost my faith in God. But now we are very dedicated to studying the Bible, doing devotions daily, and praying to God to find the answers to our lives and well-being. But I completely understand what you feel about your experience at the Southern Baptist Conference. One thing I have learned is that there are "sick" churches. I agree with you about how they use certain scriptures and ignore the rest; there is so much more in the Bible. I love the book of Proverbs. But I hate when churches try to tell you how to walk outside of church and put themselves above you as being self-righteous. And then they speak hateful words that God hates gays. It says nothing about homosexuality. Many people, even preachers, can lose sight of their assignment to God. But God speaks of love and compassion, loving your neighbor, loving even your enemies. I felt terrible for Rick Warren. He founded Saddleback Church in Orange County and all over the world. In 2021, Warren sparked controversy by ordaining three women pastors, which provoked scrutiny from the conservative Southern Baptist Convention (SBC). And the sickest part of that is that now Trump, a convicted felon, rapist, misogynist, xenophobic, homophobic, racist man, and his little minion, Vance, are going to be dangerous to our democracy, and women especially have no idea what they are asking for. They hate women. The concept of conversion therapy makes me shudder. I am a social worker, and it's a terrible and deadly practice. BEAT and Pray the Gay out of a person? NO WAY!!! I share this with a lot of people that have not looked at this deeply. As is known, the Bible was written in Greek and Hebrew, but the Old Testament is written in Greek. Homosexuality was not mentioned in the original translation. I hope you will read this and share it with others who need to get the truth from theologians who have been educated in Greek, Aramaic, and Hebrew translations.
Homosexuality has been twisted in the scriptures by politicians and evangelical clergy that don't understand that abomination in Greek Strong's Exhaustive Concordance.
From bdelusso (βδέλυγμα); a detestation, i.e. (especially) idolatry.
I am glad you are free from the evangelical nationalist Christian cult. Peace, Love, and Blessings to you.
Thanks, back at you!! You're right, it is Southern Baptist Conference, not convention, lol.
Excellent article, I saved it to go over again. I like that word "knabenschander." Too bad it means boy molester. So MEN changed the Bible to say - men, do not lie down with men, when all along, God meant boys. I never knew that. I think in the Baptist atmosphere, members are discriminated against for questioning and/or expressing liberal views. You learn to shut up and not question, like a cult. It's fear I think, of being outside the "protection" of the cult, like Scientology. It's an evil world, out there, blah, blah. It's up to the SBC to evangelize the world, and that gets heavy and tiring. Guilt is used to make the members work harder toward whatever the mission statement is. Every church has a DIFFERENT mission statement. Anyway, thanks for your kind words; I'm a social worker too, retired.
Of course they are. Growing up with someone who is either, given their public actions, has borderline personality disorder or is a malignant narcissist tends to mess up kids' heads, especially when it is all they know.
That would apply to the examples of Ivanka, Eric, and Don Jr. They can not love their father as typical children do with their parents. He demands that they love him. They are lying to themselves about their relationship. It's like being in prison or strangled by the constant need to be validated and expected to be loyal to him or else, like a mob boss. DJT did not get the love of his mother or father when he was young. The attachment that a child experiences - a feeling of safety and being held or paid attention to by the parents, makes the child more secure and confident later on in life. He did not get that, and his father was uninvolved due to building his empire in New York. How can you expect him to be okay as an adult? He is very insecure and needs to have all the attention. It's unfortunate, quite frankly. I fear that he and Vance would get into office. These two make it doubly dangerous for our democracy.
His mother told his father to raise him because she gave up on the little bully after all the stuff he did to his brother and neighborhood kids. Daddy just made him into a big bully!
Mom and grandmother of women, sister of women, aunt of women, cousin of women, friend of women. Wife mom sister and grandmother of men. Friend of men. All of them but the littlest voting Biden/Harris.
Don’t stay home. Don’t let your friends stay home in November.
What I find offensive about Vance is his lack of awareness that some women can not give birth or carry a baby to term due to health conditions that could compromise their lives. My daughter cannot have children unless she does surrogates with the eggs from her. Yale stopped getting their best - and that is Vance. I can't believe Tim Ryan lost his seat, and this putz got in. He's Himmler to Hitler, as Vance is to Trump.
My son (a recent graduate of globalization and international relations and national security studies) told me that Yale and Harvard have yet to put out their best in the most recent years.
Adulting Daughters soon to be teenage son dogs cats leopard gecko.. we are all voting BLUE and Fuck the Orange Douche and his Project 2025 VP pick. They want to take EVERY SINGLE Right away from women because we’re less than… FVCKING FUCKTARDS
My Cain (hairless pitbull) is waiting for me with his Corgi mix brother Reuben and my old kitty Jester.. my rainbow bridge is filled with my furbabies and I’m hoping my eldest daughter and only son are there with them And taking care of all of them until I can get there and be with them again
Won't that be a riotous day for us both,! Until.then, there's important work here to be done. Cannot imagine any " furbabies" will welcome trump & vance.at their Bridge crossing....different bridges entirely. Their.loss...our joy !🤗
Yep, I remember the "good old days" where these white,racists,arrogant men in all THEIR christo-facism certainly that they will not just win the election BUT succeed in destroying the country, this time around.
I am not going back to the days of my youth that scared me into school. School where I would never miss a day, even if I was sick. I never wanted to be caught, trapped with kids.
When Vance made it clear that there should be no exceptions for an abortion in the case of rape or incest he also said that such a pregnancy is an "inconvenience". One thing we have on our side is that women, especially women of color, have always been underestimated by men. There are more women registered to vote than men. I participated in the Women's March. Women are the ones behind the state abortion rights ballot initiatives that have been passed and there are about 11 of them on the ballot in November. Get every woman you know registered and out to vote. This is a FAFO moment for women and they won't see us coming.
I agree with you. I can never understand how any women can support Trump and Vance.
But even those women need reproductive rights. I think our secret strength is women of childbearing age, who know they have the most to lose if they can't have an abortion or if they can't get contraceptives. Reproductive rights is our ticket to attracting women who might have very little else in common.
Some women aren't that free. Leading up to the last election a lady told me that she was Voting the way her husband votes otherwise it would cancel out his vote, like his vote would mean something if it had anything to do with making her a Slave?
I realize that, but I also know women who like to "keep the peace." I don't think they'd be above telling a little white lie, or perhaps insinuating it, after voting for Biden in the secret space of the voting booth.
MS Drozdis...we, as part of " aged" antique voters of today have a duty to our younger sisters to at least try to protect them from politicians / men who would.control their lives as these.despots are attempting to control our lives now. NEVER BELIEVE THAT YOUR VOTE DOES NOT COUNT! MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD BY HOW YOU VOTE NOW. VOTE BLUE DOWN THE LINE!🤗
I’m 82 and voting for Democrats again because of my great-granddaughters. I want them to have the rights that my wife fought so hard for to obtain. That should never have been changed.
No, because there are many situations when there is a serious problem with a pregnancy and to save the life of the woman, and/or to keep her from experiencing sepsis or other serious medical problems, or the fetus has a condition that is incompatible with life outside the womb, an abortion is necessary. I don't agree that the government should make these decisions. I don't think the government should take away the right of woman to make this decision in consultation with her doctor. Politicians should be making medical decisions for women. People are entitled to their religious views, but they aren't entitled to forcing them upon others.
I heard Vance is 5’ 7. I’m sure Donald wanted someone short next to him so he could appear very tall. Plus, Donald loves guys who wear tons of clown makeup.
If t'rump keeps doing that weird forward lean (probably because his 'lifts' are high) he's going to fall flat on his face! Won't that be just awful? 🤭😂
I'm with you all the way, Mary. I may be long past child-bearing age, but I am appalled by what women have to go through these days, even when what they are going through is a natural process, such as a miscarriage. These men will never make sense to me, and especially neither will the women who go along with them.
I understand that in El Salvador, women who miscarry are accused (and often convicted of) manslaughter. I pray that doesn't happen here. (It's bad enough that it does in El Salvador, although wealthy women can usually escape jail).
How awful. But as Fay Reid said it's already happening in Texas, and I believe that Alabama isn't far behind, or Idaho for that matter. Texas wants to track women who go out of state for care, or prevent them from going. I've heard too many Texas stories already. We don't need any more.
When I was 26 I suffered a miscarriage at the beginning of my 3rd month. 😢😢 Only a doctor should be allowed to examine anyone who goes through that. We were 💔 devastated! Imagine having to add fear of prosecution to an already horrible experience
I’m also past child bearing years but the women in my family have fought for women’s rights and equality for generations. The right to make decisions about our bodies has to be a number one priority. trump and Vance are idiots with archaic belief's.
Good on the women in your family, Wendy. I agree with you completely, but would add that they also have a severe problem with insecurity if they have that much need to control women, that they are so afraid of women.
I am surprised that he didn’t pick RFK jr as his running mate. Vance is a misogynistic creep that is now in bed with a criminal. Vance said he would not certify an election, should that disqualify a candidate? You are right we are being marched into fascism.
Nope. Once they are in power, it doesn't matter how much money you have. Germany forced gays to wear pink triangles. They were forced into the gas chambers too. We just don't hear about. Thiel is expendable. Only his money makes him acceptable. The Christo-Fascists have no use for him.
RFK JR is the sacrificial lamb, in there for the sole purpose of pulling votes from Biden - and he knows it. trump may have promised him a cabinet seat, but trump is not known for keeping his promises.
As to Vance - nothing in today's USA including being a convicted felon, rapist, insurrectionist and outright traitor prevents Trump from being President according to the illiterate 6 on SCOTUS or the 11 Federal District Circuit Court in South Florida. Despite Amendment 14 Section 3. All that counts is MONEY
Thank you Mary for your fire and clarity. Women are going to lead the way in this election. It is because we are strong that fascism is on the rise, but we are going to win this. Don’t stop believing it. Do NOT obey in advance…..
I love the way Vance said the US is being run by childless cat ladies.
I'm a childfree retired metallurgical engineer. I had a wonderful 37-year engineering career and am have been very happily married to my husband for 28 years. He's black; I'm white. Oh, and we both love cats but aren't bitter at all. We love life. Thankfully, we live in the SF Bay Area but are unfortunately part of the USA's march into fascism.
We're using our spare time to encouraging people all over the USA to vote blue up and down the ballot.
Wow what is he talking about???? How many women are Fortune 500 CEOs - he's full of sh*t. In My 30 year career (product design/party goods industry), the longer I stayed and the higher up I went - there were less and LESS women around. And FORGET about a Girl's Club! Never happened in my world, sadly. So he's just 'juicing' the (already existing) anti-woman vote - and I'm sick of these creepy statements. Why aren't they stopped? Anger & threats are normalized every f'n day! All so no one notices THEY HAVE NOTHING. All this ginned-up 'fight' - they aren't even fighting for anyone or anything in particular. Just playing media games. STOP FALLING FOR IT... THEY HAVE NO IDEAS for America. (AND THE ONLY REASON they are going after Joe's age constantly - is because he is the ONLY ONE that can beat him, IMHO).
According to reports earlier today Vance removed the anti-abortion statements from his website shortly before or after his announcement as the winner in the Veepstakes. Given his and Trump’s views on immigrants, I immediately wondered how his wife is feeling. She is the daughter of immigrants, met J D at Yale law school and was a registered democrat before they married. She did go on to clerk for John Roberts and Brett Kavanaugh, before going to a law firm described as somewhat progressive. She resigned from that firm yesterday.
In the past apparently her husband expressed amazement that people would listen to classical music for pleasure. She is on the board of the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra and is an honorary trustee of I think the Washington Opera. Apparently she is happy to be ab-zorbed (using a robotic voice here as a nod here to various sci-fi shows, although I think the voice was from The Borg rather than Doctor Who). But she had a choice to submit or at least subjugate her life to men. The rest of us need to vote to make sure it doesn’t happen to us.
I'm 66, too old to have children, but I got sick to my stomach when l saw Vance get picked. I know his stances, his views and what he'll do. Not caring about what happens to Ukraine, allowing women to die from deadly pregnancies, children going hungry, etc. I'll vote blue, all down ballot too.
Check his basement for pods, more like (reference is Invasion of the Body Snatchers). He & DJT want us all to follow them mindlessly. We have to ensure this absolutely doesn't happen.
Now that I think about it, of course he would never pick a woman. A woman or Rubio would have been the toughest against President Biden, in my opinion, but he needs someone who will do and say anything without question, so JD was the pick. Both despicable, especially after the stance JD took on Don in the past.
the MAGA stooges would all gargle trump's little mushroom to get the VP gig. They don't give the tiniest little shit about the country or their own self respect. Unfortunately I had Turd Cruz in the VP bingo. They're all scum. Sorry not sorry.
Marco Rubio looked so disappointed. He thought he would be chosen if he stayed loyal to Trump. Once again, this is a perfect example of how he treats people that he draws in. All these people who were cheering at the RNC will, in the next 4-8 years, soon realize that DJT will cut their throats all for his gain, not the American people. He cares for no one. And this guy Peter Thiel, is a really dangerous guy based on the way he has done business with getting Vance where he is. https://youtu.be/Bw1ByVhJt7A?si=58AjGegamoB1bslX
We have to out these people with nationalist agendas. https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2021/09/20/peter-thiel-book-facebook-trump-jd-vance-blake-masters-josh-hawley-513121. There are other characters that we need seriously to drive out - Ted Cruz, Josh Hawley, and others are conspirators to our demise of America. Thiel says we need to crush democracy and more nationalist fascism/dictatorship. He hates women; however, that explains it as he is openly gay, but the difference is he has money, and Republicans, including Trump, loves Thiel; they salivate his presence. Same with Elon Musk.

Vote blue up and down the ticket!
Our entire future depends on it.
If trump wins in November we’re fucked.
amazing he's eligible... who DOES this.
"We The People" does this. If people hadn't elected him the first time, we wouldn't be in this mess today.
If we didn't have laws that allowed convicted felons to run for president or public office we might be better off.
The Constitution is what it's been for over 200 years and it's worked fine until the past few decades. It's the PEOPLE and our lousy public school system who can't keep up with modern times, don't blame the Constitution for incurious, uneducated, misinformed people.
I can't believe we allow it!
Seems like that should be changed in the constitution!
I have never and will never vote for trump!
I feel we’re screwed either way, bc I’m also worried that if Biden wins the reaction will be worse than on Jan 6th. Basically, Donald won’t take “no” as an answer.

Defeatism helps no one. The Dem base made it clear they won't let a couple of disgruntled elites take away their primary votes for Biden and I am certain they won't let Trump take their vote for Biden this November. This time we are gonna be ready for them.
Who took away your vote for biden ?
Trump can’t fight the U.S. army because this time we’ll be ready for his thugs.
Yep. Buffalo Man was a threat equivalent to Pearl Harbor attack.
DJT isn’t the incumbent this time so he’ll only be able to maybe mobilize the maga nuts & DC will prepare for another riot.
But, a decent president would have stepped up to stop what was happening on January 6. Trump caused it with his words. No National Guard call up because it was exactly what he was hoping for and why he stood there just watching it all play out on TV. I wonder which of his judges will stop that trial! Oh wait, if he wins, he can just stop it himself! VOTE BLUE!
So who is the incumbent this time ?
There's a name for the angst many feel right now: Premature Capitulation. It's a strategy of making your opponents so depressed and fatalistic, they give up before there's even a fight. It worked in Nazi Germany. We must not let it dissolve our resolve.
May I borrow that term Premature capitulation ???? So much to unpack
I can't take credit for it, but it fits, right?
The Republicans are pushing the narrative that the election is over and trump will win in order to claim fraud when Biden blows him off the map with a strong win. Don’t buy into their conversation.
I stand with Biden. I want a leader not a bully.
I think voters are underestimating the ongoing foreign interference. Russia is absolutely involved in spreading lies, along with the republican party, on social media and everywhere else. It has never stopped since 2016, but now the foreign spies know better what to do/not do. It's a total stealth/bot operation and you better believe that foreign hackers are very busy right now. Trump is also trying to buy this election, like always, but bribery and corporate-owned politicians/judges are legal, so who cares??
If Trump does not lose in a landslide victory for Biden, it will be due to foreign interference. If he is elected, may God help America and the rest of the world. He is indeed the most dangerous person and he will only win by cheating.
I'm fed up with that filthy rotten criminal and the ones who support him.
NO! Not so. We The People must not be held hostage by the evil MAGAs. We can vote for Democracy or we can vote for Authoritarian rule. Look at what happened in 1930s Germany when they got suckered into voting for authoritarian rule. Nothing good can come of it.
Correct. They’ve set up poll watchers ready to go

Project 2025 is even in PEOPLE magazine!!
😲😲😲😲😲. "People's Magazine; it's Serious for sure then, ' cause Whyte people read PM"😎♏
I actually find it more newsworthy that Dems are keeping massive chaos intraparty by fighting over the ticket's candidate and talking contested conv. Pull out revolver, shooteth thyself in foot.
The thing I like about it being in People Magazine is they have condensed it and made it into a readable form for regular people. (Non-lawyers, non-politicians, non scholastics.) It’s easier to manage reading their 5 pages than P 2025‘s 920 pages! This makes me think People might get more readers interested in reading about Project 2025 than other places, and that can only be good! To People Magazine I give: Respect!
Good for People!! Lots of people read that Magazine !💙💙💙💙💙💙
I been sitting here,thumbs twiddling, ready to volunteer at DNCHQ, since the debate. But , some dems out there would ather talk about the top of the ticket and contested convntions. They are killing my spirit, and a lot of others I expect. Just when I am ready for a final push into Nov, they try to burn down our party. FAFO. Youre doing your best to lose in nov.
We are Doing ALL by Talking about the Top of the ticket how important that IS + VOTE BLUE Top down & Dangers of Obscene Traitorous Project 2025-how it Destroys democracy! That Gets folks attention and Taking Action.
Agree!
Good price
so sad.. I'm terrified for my country.

I've been telling everyone I know about it. I also respond to "trumpers" telling them to Google it and then tell me how great he will be!
The irony is that neither Lincoln nor Reagan would qualify as a Republican today.
True that.
And JFK and LBJ would be considered White Supremacist Nazis.
Amen!
I think peter drucker said that, not A Lincoln??
I’ve seen it attributed to both.
Are the people of Palestine included in that idea of a “safer, saner world”, or will it be more genocide and terror for them?
Both? - Safer AND Saner?! You're just trying to make a joke, right?
Saner? Claiming little boys should be chemically castrated is “saner”? Please seek Canadian healthcare.
We went blue last time, and the world is clearly not safer and saner. In fact it's quite worse!
Speak for yourself, MIKE. Republicans have fought every sane effort the Dems have made to make it safer and saner for everyone and if DJT and his cult get back in the lead it will be FAR worse for women and everyone but the white male rich. Dems need to win by a big margin in the House and the Senate to truly make this a safer and saner world.
Childless dog lady here. Fuck those fuckers.
Childless cat lady and ditto
So am I and yes!!
Me too!
George Washington didn’t have children. Fuck Vance. Hope his spawn aren’t as fucked up as he is.
What I don't understand is how these women who are married to these guys, who are so misogynistic and literally, must have hate toward women. They want women to be subservient because they know that women (like Kamala) will not put up with Vance's BS. For someone, anyone, to condone the "no exception" for rape and incest. That is plain sick and makes me want to vomit. I will never bow down to a man. Vance's wife is subservient and takes it. These two are both narcissists at their best. These women are trapped by money and the need for love. They are destroying our values as women of freedom. It's deplorable.
Fundamental and evangelical Christian churches hammer a lot of stuff into women and keep preaching it. Especially the Southern Baptist Convention. It is called brainwashing. It happened to me.
SBC is total patriarchy; women are never allowed a leadership position. The wife of senior pastor at my old megachurch is a MUCH BETTER preacher than her husband. He is uppity and revered. Women are forbidden from teaching men. A class of young boys (or coed) must either have a married couple or male teachers. Divorced women are definitely treated differently; it's subtle though. Sexual harrassers are tolerated and complainants are fired from church staff. I spent a lot of time at this church during a difficult marriage and post-divorce. Even worked there part time. I absolutely could not see it at the time - how brainwashed I was. The scripture is 🍒-picked and some parts of the BIBLE are never preached about at all. I always found that strange. When a woman in that church makes a complaint or asks for help from a pastor (there are many), she is either rebuffed as a second-class person or manipulated. People knew my X was bad, but made me believe he would change. I hung on for a long time.
The SBC became more political; that's why Beth Moore left. She's another great preacher who was always just "a Bible teacher." I began to see much less separation between church and state. The preaching says homosexuals are welcome, but that is not true. A gay person in that church will be subjected to conversion therapy. Oh yeah, look out, if the sick filthy criminal wins a manipulated election, conversion therapy for queers will return with a vengeance!!
I quit going in March 2020 when pandemic began and the crap in my head from that church began to clear out. I completely understood I'd been brainwashed/gaslit..
Never went back to ANY church and now have my own unique relationship with God, absolute freedom of worship!
I don't take that freedom for granted; we might lose it.
Thank you, Mary.
Remember Vance is a self declared aethiest, and Trump may as well be. Do some research into that.
I know how you feel. I stepped away from the church for quite a while. I was raised in the Lutheran faith. I was following a liturgy, which seemed like it was canned. I did not truly understand what a real relationship with God was when I was back with my ex-husband, who is in recovery from addiction. I divorced him and lost my faith in God. But now we are very dedicated to studying the Bible, doing devotions daily, and praying to God to find the answers to our lives and well-being. But I completely understand what you feel about your experience at the Southern Baptist Conference. One thing I have learned is that there are "sick" churches. I agree with you about how they use certain scriptures and ignore the rest; there is so much more in the Bible. I love the book of Proverbs. But I hate when churches try to tell you how to walk outside of church and put themselves above you as being self-righteous. And then they speak hateful words that God hates gays. It says nothing about homosexuality. Many people, even preachers, can lose sight of their assignment to God. But God speaks of love and compassion, loving your neighbor, loving even your enemies. I felt terrible for Rick Warren. He founded Saddleback Church in Orange County and all over the world. In 2021, Warren sparked controversy by ordaining three women pastors, which provoked scrutiny from the conservative Southern Baptist Convention (SBC). And the sickest part of that is that now Trump, a convicted felon, rapist, misogynist, xenophobic, homophobic, racist man, and his little minion, Vance, are going to be dangerous to our democracy, and women especially have no idea what they are asking for. They hate women. The concept of conversion therapy makes me shudder. I am a social worker, and it's a terrible and deadly practice. BEAT and Pray the Gay out of a person? NO WAY!!! I share this with a lot of people that have not looked at this deeply. As is known, the Bible was written in Greek and Hebrew, but the Old Testament is written in Greek. Homosexuality was not mentioned in the original translation. I hope you will read this and share it with others who need to get the truth from theologians who have been educated in Greek, Aramaic, and Hebrew translations.
https://um-insight.net/perspectives/has-%E2%80%9Chomosexual%E2%80%9D-always-been-in-the-bible/
Homosexuality has been twisted in the scriptures by politicians and evangelical clergy that don't understand that abomination in Greek Strong's Exhaustive Concordance.
From bdelusso (βδέλυγμα); a detestation, i.e. (especially) idolatry.
I am glad you are free from the evangelical nationalist Christian cult. Peace, Love, and Blessings to you.
Thanks, back at you!! You're right, it is Southern Baptist Conference, not convention, lol.
Excellent article, I saved it to go over again. I like that word "knabenschander." Too bad it means boy molester. So MEN changed the Bible to say - men, do not lie down with men, when all along, God meant boys. I never knew that. I think in the Baptist atmosphere, members are discriminated against for questioning and/or expressing liberal views. You learn to shut up and not question, like a cult. It's fear I think, of being outside the "protection" of the cult, like Scientology. It's an evil world, out there, blah, blah. It's up to the SBC to evangelize the world, and that gets heavy and tiring. Guilt is used to make the members work harder toward whatever the mission statement is. Every church has a DIFFERENT mission statement. Anyway, thanks for your kind words; I'm a social worker too, retired.
“It is called brainwashing” lies and more lies and nonsense🤦♂️ on your part
I would rather work 2 jobs than have to ask any man for permission to do ANYTHING!😬😡😡😡💩
Makes one wish for retroactive abortion and it affect both the the glorious GOP ticket.
I ❤️ it
Of course they are. Growing up with someone who is either, given their public actions, has borderline personality disorder or is a malignant narcissist tends to mess up kids' heads, especially when it is all they know.
That would apply to the examples of Ivanka, Eric, and Don Jr. They can not love their father as typical children do with their parents. He demands that they love him. They are lying to themselves about their relationship. It's like being in prison or strangled by the constant need to be validated and expected to be loyal to him or else, like a mob boss. DJT did not get the love of his mother or father when he was young. The attachment that a child experiences - a feeling of safety and being held or paid attention to by the parents, makes the child more secure and confident later on in life. He did not get that, and his father was uninvolved due to building his empire in New York. How can you expect him to be okay as an adult? He is very insecure and needs to have all the attention. It's unfortunate, quite frankly. I fear that he and Vance would get into office. These two make it doubly dangerous for our democracy.
His mother told his father to raise him because she gave up on the little bully after all the stuff he did to his brother and neighborhood kids. Daddy just made him into a big bully!
Pitty being his daughter (goddess forbid), or his wife, interestingly a daughter of immigrants, and herself a lawyer.
She’s also a person of color. What the hell is she doing with him?
That’s exactly what I want to know!! She’s darker than I am and I’m Native Hawaiian..
Love knows no reason?
Reason obviously didn’t come knocking on that fucking door
That's my point. Reason had no part in the decision.
George didn’t have kids because he was sterile after getting measles as an adult. Because there were no vaccines…
Oh they will be if they aren't already. Mental illness is contagious
Any person who supports policies that could result in his daughter’s death doesn’t give a shit about his kids.
Mom and grandmother of women, sister of women, aunt of women, cousin of women, friend of women. Wife mom sister and grandmother of men. Friend of men. All of them but the littlest voting Biden/Harris.
Don’t stay home. Don’t let your friends stay home in November.
Women must save our democracy. Sadly, a large number of men will not.
My child is a basset hound and glad for that. Would hate to have children or grandchildren in this age.
It’s scary, but motivating as hell.
Agree. I'm 62, and nonregretfully, joyfully childfree!! 😍
same. 62 joyfully childfree :)
I have 7 children--I'm a fecund cat lady! Do I still get a voice? Because damn, this J.D. Vance idiot is just horrifying and contemptible!!!
You do!
I'm with you, Pamela.
Childfree dog woman here. 👍
What I find offensive about Vance is his lack of awareness that some women can not give birth or carry a baby to term due to health conditions that could compromise their lives. My daughter cannot have children unless she does surrogates with the eggs from her. Yale stopped getting their best - and that is Vance. I can't believe Tim Ryan lost his seat, and this putz got in. He's Himmler to Hitler, as Vance is to Trump.
Yale and Harvard incubate useful idiots these days.
My son (a recent graduate of globalization and international relations and national security studies) told me that Yale and Harvard have yet to put out their best in the most recent years.
Adulting Daughters soon to be teenage son dogs cats leopard gecko.. we are all voting BLUE and Fuck the Orange Douche and his Project 2025 VP pick. They want to take EVERY SINGLE Right away from women because we’re less than… FVCKING FUCKTARDS
Already advised your Corgi will vote BLUE!
He told my corgi, Paddy. Tuppence ( waiting for me at.the Rainbow Bridge). Forgive never stop talking..🤗
My Cain (hairless pitbull) is waiting for me with his Corgi mix brother Reuben and my old kitty Jester.. my rainbow bridge is filled with my furbabies and I’m hoping my eldest daughter and only son are there with them And taking care of all of them until I can get there and be with them again
Meant ":corgi's never stop talking " faulty old fingers.
Dear Bedhead2Day....
Won't that be a riotous day for us both,! Until.then, there's important work here to be done. Cannot imagine any " furbabies" will welcome trump & vance.at their Bridge crossing....different bridges entirely. Their.loss...our joy !🤗
Childless bird lady here. Ditto!
Yep, I remember the "good old days" where these white,racists,arrogant men in all THEIR christo-facism certainly that they will not just win the election BUT succeed in destroying the country, this time around.
I am not going back to the days of my youth that scared me into school. School where I would never miss a day, even if I was sick. I never wanted to be caught, trapped with kids.
They won’t succeed. They’re trying but we do have the vote (at least in this election)
Childfree cat lover here--and likewise to the woman-haters.
That needledickbugfucker projects his misery onto us. Being childless and living with cats is delightful!
You are useless, a burden to the rest of us. You failed.
Nonregretfully, joyfully CHILDFREE cat lady/retired metallurgical engineer here. The far-right regressives can go f*ck themselves.
When Vance made it clear that there should be no exceptions for an abortion in the case of rape or incest he also said that such a pregnancy is an "inconvenience". One thing we have on our side is that women, especially women of color, have always been underestimated by men. There are more women registered to vote than men. I participated in the Women's March. Women are the ones behind the state abortion rights ballot initiatives that have been passed and there are about 11 of them on the ballot in November. Get every woman you know registered and out to vote. This is a FAFO moment for women and they won't see us coming.
I agree with you. I can never understand how any women can support Trump and Vance.
But even those women need reproductive rights. I think our secret strength is women of childbearing age, who know they have the most to lose if they can't have an abortion or if they can't get contraceptives. Reproductive rights is our ticket to attracting women who might have very little else in common.
I agree. Everyone goes into the voting booth alone. All women are free to vote for whomever they wish. Pass it on.
American womer are taking the Orange Anti-Christ on full stop!!
https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox/FMfcgzQVxbmqqGMnxdzFcxgKLXXhFmJC
Some women aren't that free. Leading up to the last election a lady told me that she was Voting the way her husband votes otherwise it would cancel out his vote, like his vote would mean something if it had anything to do with making her a Slave?
I realize that, but I also know women who like to "keep the peace." I don't think they'd be above telling a little white lie, or perhaps insinuating it, after voting for Biden in the secret space of the voting booth.
Those women are more loyal than the men's vote their trying to save. Another sad kind of situation
Totally agree. This also includes younger women voters.
I'm aged, but still believe I have a stake in the reproductive rights fight. My vote is going to Biden.
MS Drozdis...we, as part of " aged" antique voters of today have a duty to our younger sisters to at least try to protect them from politicians / men who would.control their lives as these.despots are attempting to control our lives now. NEVER BELIEVE THAT YOUR VOTE DOES NOT COUNT! MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD BY HOW YOU VOTE NOW. VOTE BLUE DOWN THE LINE!🤗
I’m 82 and voting for Democrats again because of my great-granddaughters. I want them to have the rights that my wife fought so hard for to obtain. That should never have been changed.
I'm 68 and I'm going with Biden
True that. Even in Nebraska they got enough ballot initiative signatures. Arizona got twice as many as required
HARRIS-WHITMER
Not this time. Love them, but I remember 1968.
How do you see Biden winning? Which states?
That would be something to behold, just doubt it could be pulled of in the next 110 days, even if Joe agreed to it.
Ok, so let’s say we made those exceptions and outlawed all other abortions. You good with that?
No, because there are many situations when there is a serious problem with a pregnancy and to save the life of the woman, and/or to keep her from experiencing sepsis or other serious medical problems, or the fetus has a condition that is incompatible with life outside the womb, an abortion is necessary. I don't agree that the government should make these decisions. I don't think the government should take away the right of woman to make this decision in consultation with her doctor. Politicians should be making medical decisions for women. People are entitled to their religious views, but they aren't entitled to forcing them upon others.
Ok, so those particular exceptions are meaningless to you then. They're just a talking point that you use to browbeat the opposition into concessions.
Screw you.
I heard Vance is 5’ 7. I’m sure Donald wanted someone short next to him so he could appear very tall. Plus, Donald loves guys who wear tons of clown makeup.
Especially if Donald loses his shoes.
VERY PERCEPTIVE! GOOD EYE!🤗
If t'rump keeps doing that weird forward lean (probably because his 'lifts' are high) he's going to fall flat on his face! Won't that be just awful? 🤭😂
I'm with you all the way, Mary. I may be long past child-bearing age, but I am appalled by what women have to go through these days, even when what they are going through is a natural process, such as a miscarriage. These men will never make sense to me, and especially neither will the women who go along with them.
I understand that in El Salvador, women who miscarry are accused (and often convicted of) manslaughter. I pray that doesn't happen here. (It's bad enough that it does in El Salvador, although wealthy women can usually escape jail).
How awful. But as Fay Reid said it's already happening in Texas, and I believe that Alabama isn't far behind, or Idaho for that matter. Texas wants to track women who go out of state for care, or prevent them from going. I've heard too many Texas stories already. We don't need any more.
It's already happening in Texas.
When I was 26 I suffered a miscarriage at the beginning of my 3rd month. 😢😢 Only a doctor should be allowed to examine anyone who goes through that. We were 💔 devastated! Imagine having to add fear of prosecution to an already horrible experience
I have marched for the same causes for 50 years. This time failure is NOT an option.
I’m also past child bearing years but the women in my family have fought for women’s rights and equality for generations. The right to make decisions about our bodies has to be a number one priority. trump and Vance are idiots with archaic belief's.
Good on the women in your family, Wendy. I agree with you completely, but would add that they also have a severe problem with insecurity if they have that much need to control women, that they are so afraid of women.
Totally agree, MS Stone.!😞
I am surprised that he didn’t pick RFK jr as his running mate. Vance is a misogynistic creep that is now in bed with a criminal. Vance said he would not certify an election, should that disqualify a candidate? You are right we are being marched into fascism.
Vance was bought and paid for as the VP choice. He brings nothing to the table except billionaire money and more hate.
How long does Thiel think they’ll allow him to stay, him being gay!
probably as long as his money lasts :(
Nope. Once they are in power, it doesn't matter how much money you have. Germany forced gays to wear pink triangles. They were forced into the gas chambers too. We just don't hear about. Thiel is expendable. Only his money makes him acceptable. The Christo-Fascists have no use for him.
Log cabin republicans are all fucking idiots!
Not disagreeing. I just don't get it. Why, why, would someone support a cause that reviles them?
Who's gay? Vance? Or Trump?
Have not heard that.
Neither. One of the billionaire backers.
Peter Thiel, billionaire backer of the current fascist movement, is gay.
https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/article/gay-men-under-the-nazi-regime
Well, truth be told, he's extremely beholden to the orange menace because of all the nasty but true things he's said about him.
Vance was bought and paid for by The Heritage Foundation and by The Federalist Society.
And Peter Thiel.
RFK Jr isn't a gazillionaire like Vance so again, it boils down to money and who can attempt to buy the demented shitshow of the century.
RFK JR is the sacrificial lamb, in there for the sole purpose of pulling votes from Biden - and he knows it. trump may have promised him a cabinet seat, but trump is not known for keeping his promises.
As to Vance - nothing in today's USA including being a convicted felon, rapist, insurrectionist and outright traitor prevents Trump from being President according to the illiterate 6 on SCOTUS or the 11 Federal District Circuit Court in South Florida. Despite Amendment 14 Section 3. All that counts is MONEY
Thank you Mary for your fire and clarity. Women are going to lead the way in this election. It is because we are strong that fascism is on the rise, but we are going to win this. Don’t stop believing it. Do NOT obey in advance…..
Thank you for this excellent article, Mary.
I love the way Vance said the US is being run by childless cat ladies.
I'm a childfree retired metallurgical engineer. I had a wonderful 37-year engineering career and am have been very happily married to my husband for 28 years. He's black; I'm white. Oh, and we both love cats but aren't bitter at all. We love life. Thankfully, we live in the SF Bay Area but are unfortunately part of the USA's march into fascism.
We're using our spare time to encouraging people all over the USA to vote blue up and down the ballot.
Wow what is he talking about???? How many women are Fortune 500 CEOs - he's full of sh*t. In My 30 year career (product design/party goods industry), the longer I stayed and the higher up I went - there were less and LESS women around. And FORGET about a Girl's Club! Never happened in my world, sadly. So he's just 'juicing' the (already existing) anti-woman vote - and I'm sick of these creepy statements. Why aren't they stopped? Anger & threats are normalized every f'n day! All so no one notices THEY HAVE NOTHING. All this ginned-up 'fight' - they aren't even fighting for anyone or anything in particular. Just playing media games. STOP FALLING FOR IT... THEY HAVE NO IDEAS for America. (AND THE ONLY REASON they are going after Joe's age constantly - is because he is the ONLY ONE that can beat him, IMHO).
You sound awesome! Virtually high-fiving you alongside my two cats and two dogs (and no human kids).
Thank you Relish! I'm high-fiving you back. 😍
According to reports earlier today Vance removed the anti-abortion statements from his website shortly before or after his announcement as the winner in the Veepstakes. Given his and Trump’s views on immigrants, I immediately wondered how his wife is feeling. She is the daughter of immigrants, met J D at Yale law school and was a registered democrat before they married. She did go on to clerk for John Roberts and Brett Kavanaugh, before going to a law firm described as somewhat progressive. She resigned from that firm yesterday.
In the past apparently her husband expressed amazement that people would listen to classical music for pleasure. She is on the board of the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra and is an honorary trustee of I think the Washington Opera. Apparently she is happy to be ab-zorbed (using a robotic voice here as a nod here to various sci-fi shows, although I think the voice was from The Borg rather than Doctor Who). But she had a choice to submit or at least subjugate her life to men. The rest of us need to vote to make sure it doesn’t happen to us.
Just another Trumpian Stepford Wife. Sad that now she will be another sycophant helping American women be “under his eye.”
I'm 66, too old to have children, but I got sick to my stomach when l saw Vance get picked. I know his stances, his views and what he'll do. Not caring about what happens to Ukraine, allowing women to die from deadly pregnancies, children going hungry, etc. I'll vote blue, all down ballot too.
AGREE 100%. I felt sick, too... and I've been following all this since 2019 ish
Haley is kissing the orange Dingleberry ass
Haley has no principles or soul.
She sold her soul to the devil for 💰 money
‘Dingleberry ass’! 🤣😂
Umm, I would have looked on the front of that anatomy.
(I just slapped my hand for that one, but not too hard.)
The backside is a MUCH bigger anatomical feature..
🤣😂
I think we should call them the American Taliban!!
I look forward to seeing VP Harris slice and dice Vance like she did to Barr and kavanaugh.
Women united can defeat this anti-women ticket. It’s up to us. Let’s do this!
Someone had better check Vance’s basement! He sounds like another psycho.
Check his basement for pods, more like (reference is Invasion of the Body Snatchers). He & DJT want us all to follow them mindlessly. We have to ensure this absolutely doesn't happen.
Funny you should say that. I’ve been searching everywhere for pods since all this started. Like minds. You are so correct!💙💙
While you’re at it I’d want someone (not me) to check evangelical basements for the same.
Not me either! Some 300lb guy with a firearm!
Maybe an advanced energy beam. 🤭
Now that I think about it, of course he would never pick a woman. A woman or Rubio would have been the toughest against President Biden, in my opinion, but he needs someone who will do and say anything without question, so JD was the pick. Both despicable, especially after the stance JD took on Don in the past.
the MAGA stooges would all gargle trump's little mushroom to get the VP gig. They don't give the tiniest little shit about the country or their own self respect. Unfortunately I had Turd Cruz in the VP bingo. They're all scum. Sorry not sorry.
Oh I agree, I just meant Don doesn’t have respect for women. But any of his Ms. Noose America choices would have complied with his instructions.
Yeah and the men too. Staggers me how the MAGAts adore him, given that most people avoid anyone who talks constantly about themselves
Marco Rubio looked so disappointed. He thought he would be chosen if he stayed loyal to Trump. Once again, this is a perfect example of how he treats people that he draws in. All these people who were cheering at the RNC will, in the next 4-8 years, soon realize that DJT will cut their throats all for his gain, not the American people. He cares for no one. And this guy Peter Thiel, is a really dangerous guy based on the way he has done business with getting Vance where he is. https://youtu.be/Bw1ByVhJt7A?si=58AjGegamoB1bslX
We have to out these people with nationalist agendas. https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2021/09/20/peter-thiel-book-facebook-trump-jd-vance-blake-masters-josh-hawley-513121. There are other characters that we need seriously to drive out - Ted Cruz, Josh Hawley, and others are conspirators to our demise of America. Thiel says we need to crush democracy and more nationalist fascism/dictatorship. He hates women; however, that explains it as he is openly gay, but the difference is he has money, and Republicans, including Trump, loves Thiel; they salivate his presence. Same with Elon Musk.
Thank you, Mary. 💙
I hope that JD Vance's anti-women stance is the reason Biden gets reelected.
