On this July 20, the 55th anniversary of the #Apollo11 Moon landing, I'd like to share my dad's autographed photo of Neil Armstrong from when he was working for Neil in 1991 or so (before I was born).

May the intrepid journey of Armstrong, Aldrin, and Collins continue to inspire us all!

Attention all in the Northern Virginia area:

I'm telling you. Even if you don't support Biden, y'all had better vote to stop this garbage from happening. Not voting isn't sending a message, it's just letting these assholes take power.

Read the Project 2025 manifesto RIGHT NOW

It’s MUCH worse than y'all have been hearing

There is so much here you’ll have to look at it for yourself, but the climate policy alone is nightmare fuel.

The republican coalition wants to essentially end funding for green energy, dramatically promote and expand fossil fuel industries, and eliminate funding and regulations in all sectors promoting climate change mitigation. Task forces and offices related to clean energy and lowering carbon emissions will be eliminated and replaced with offices for promoting fossil fuels.

They want to LOG NATIONAL FORESTS TO “THIN” THE TREES TO STOP WILDFIRES.

THEY WANT TO FORCE OREGON AND CALIFORNIA TO LOG THEIR NATIONAL FORESTS AND TREAT THEM AS FOR TIMBER PRODUCTION

There are specific provisions in Project 2025 to essentially destroy the Endangered Species Act, causing it to defer to the rights of “economic development” and “private property.” The plan includes delisting gray wolves, cutting the budget so that a “triage” system is used to determine which species will get protection, removing funding for research, removing experts and specialists from the decision-making process, and preventing “experimental” populations of animals from being established.

This is so much worse than I expected it to be and there’s much more past that: They want to deregulate pesticides and remove much of the EPA’s ability to regulate pollutants as well.

Also included in the manifesto is that we should

withdraw from nuclear weapons nonproliferation agreements, build more nuclear weapons, and resume nuclear weapons testing

The manifesto comprehensively outlines the scorched-earth elimination of abortion access, down to ensuring doctors aren’t even trained to perform abortions. There are plans in here to disrupt abortion access GLOBALLY, not just domestically.

Not only that,the Republicans plan on reframing family planning programs around “fertility awareness” and “holistic family planning.”

I can’t even describe it all. I’m trying to give screenshots of the most important things but there’s so much.

The foreign policy is a nightmare. They plan to push fossil fuels onto the Global South and promote the development of fossil fuel industry in the “developing world.”

It is aggressive and antagonistic towards other nations, strongly pro-military, proposing that we INCREASE (!!!!!) defense spending, improve public opinion of the military and military recruitment, and increase the power to fund new weapons technology.

Just read the Department of Defense section. It’s about greatly increasing and strengthening the military-industrial complex, collaborating more closely with weapons manufacturers, removing regulatory barriers to arming our allies and to inventing new military weapons, and recruiting more people into the military. They include provisions to develop AI technology for surveillance. And of course, continuing to support Israel is in there.

Elsewhere it proposes interfering in foreign countries with creepy pro-USA propaganda campaigns, even establishing international educational programs where faculty have to pledge to promote USA interests.

There’s a line in here about getting rid of PBS because SESAME STREET is LEFTIST for God’s sake.

HOW are people claiming democrats have the same policies. I feel like i’m losing my mind.
