Secret conservative manual causes stir ahead of US presidential race

A detailed right-wing manual called Project 2025 (created by Heritage Foundation think-tank) got much attention after Kamala Harris called it an attack on democracy

The 922-page document shows plans for next administration including:

  • Mass-removal of 11+ million non-legal residents
  • Replacing many gov workers with political picks
  • Taking more control over FBI and justice dept
  • Limiting healthcare programs
  • New birth-control restrictions

The Trump team quickly moved to distance itself from the text: “Project 2025 has nothing to do with our campaign and dont speak for us“ - their statement reads

Kevin Roberts who leads Heritage Foundation sees this as part of big changes in US politics; “We are in the process of the second American Revolution which will remain bloodless – if the Left allows it to be“ [[Heritage Foundation president stated]]

Many ex-Trump staff helped write it — Paul DansSteven Groves‚ and Spencer Chretien worked as main editors. Other well-known names like Stephen MillerBen Carson‚ and Mark Meadows gave input too

The manual goes further than Trumps public views on some things: it wants limits on over-65s health insurance claims and more control over medicine-related rules. Meanwhile Republicans recently dropped their long-time push for nation-wide pregnancy termination ban from their platform
