BOOOO! Trump fans say they are disheartened after he gives slap in the face to MAGA
Trump promised during his presidential campaign that he had nothing to do with Project 2025, and wanted nothing to do with it
But his embrace of figures close to the conservative plan to overhaul the federal government is upsetting his voters, who commented on Trumps relationship to Project 2025 and Trump appointing those with close ties to Project 2025.
"Several of the latest picks, they have direct ties to Project 2025, in spite of Trump distancing himself, saying he didn't know what it was about during the campaign," Witt said. "I'm curious your interpretation and could this all be theoretical as some Republicans say I mean, not even to be specifically applied."
CLEVER Joe Biden Prevents DUMB Trump Making Important Changes, Which Trump Had Planned to Repeal- Especially On The Judiciary, Confirming Some Judges to LIFETIME Positions
Even though President Joe Biden has pledged to peacefully handing the reins of power to President-elect Donald Trump on January 20th, he's still aiming to make sure his successor won't be able to easily undo his signature legislative accomplishments.
The Financial Times recently reported that both Biden and his Cabinet are working at breakneck pace to spend down tens of billions of dollars in projects that have already been approved by Congress before the Trump administration can claw it back or spend it elsewhere.
Domestically, this includes $39 billion in incentives for semiconductor manufacturing plants throughout the U.S. as part of the CHIPS and Science Act, which is fueling approximately 115,000 manufacturing jobs in multiple states.
Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo said her agency is instructing employees to work overtime and through the weekends to make sure the CHIPS and Science Act funds are out the door before Trumps inauguration less than two months from now. This apparently also included one-on-one calls to tech executives in an effort to fast-track several deals currently in the works.
The CHIPS team has announced preliminary agreements with two dozen companies for CHIPS awards, and over the next two months, plans to announce preliminary agreements for all $39 billion of that funding, and is well on its way towards securing final agreements for many of those entities where preliminary awards were announced, a White House official told the Financial Times.
One of Bidens most significant legislative achievements was the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), which Earthjustice referred to as "the largest climate spending bill ever.
One major component of that law was the appropriation of $369 billion in clean energy subsidies, which Trump campaigned on repealing. Biden climate advisor John Podesta told the Times that if Trump tries to undo the IRA, he may face unexpected resistance from Republican state governments.
Many Republicans, especially governors, know all this activity is a good thing for their districts, states and for their economies,"Podesta said.
Another big chunk of unspent money Biden is aiming to get out the door is $7 billion in military assistance to Ukraine that has yet to get to Kiev. Biden is aiming to fast-track that money before Trump gets into office, under the assumption that the president-elect will allow Russian President Vladimir Putin to conquer contested territory in Eastern Ukraine without putting up a fight.
The U.S. has already approved Ukraines use of long-range weapons to strike at Russian targets, and is sending anti-personnel mines to the Ukrainian military to use against Russia along with the larger anti-tank mines its already been deploying. Biden believes Kiev will be in a stronger negotiating position with Moscow if it has more weaponry at its disposal when Trump is inaugurated.
Finally, Biden is urging Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) to make the most of the Democratic majoritys final months to speed through his last remaining judicial nominees.
Schumer recently took advantage of several Republicans' absence in the chamber to hold votes on several nominees that had been held up, getting those judges confirmed to lifetime positions while Sens. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) and JD Vance (R-Ohio) were with Trump at a launch of a SpaceX flight.
We've been working with [Senate Democrats] very, very closely to get as many of the presidents nominees confirmed because he believes that he wants to leave a lasting impact on the judiciary a White House official said.
