    Saying The Heritage Foundation is impotent might be the most ignorant thing I’ve ever seen. The Heritage Foundation is basically running the judicial system in our country. Their strategy completely worked they control the Supreme Court and they control a lot of the federal courts in this Nation. They are an existential threat to democracy. Project 2025 is a road map. Anyone who can’t see that at this point is probably rooting for that road map.

      the heritage foundation is a lot less scary to me than black rock, chase, meta, alphabet, and the actual fucking government (fisa courts, nsa spying, international spying agreements, criminalizing protests).

      this is all shit that already threatens us. the heritage foundation didn’t make this happen: america is fascist, and they are just cheerleaders.

        You don’t think that they had anything to do with the half-century-long backslide into dominionist authoritarianism? They have playing the long game, and it’s happened because they had the patience to make it happen at a frog-boiling pace, and we only paid attention when they said the quiet parts out loud.

        Who the hell do you think developed the Reagan doctrine? They’ve had a heavy hand in tons of policy making, both domestic and foreign, for as long as I’ve been alive. All those other groups you’ve mentioned are just bolstering their influence, helping to get their bidding done.

        I must say I’m rather flabbergasted by this comment. You’re not worried about the Heritage Foundation. You are however worried about the people who fund the Heritage Foundation and the Endeavors the Heritage Foundation seeks to achieve?

            Well that’s weird cuz Heritage Foundation is a big part of that. It’s the judicial arm.

          The government doesn’t fund the heritage foundation. Facebook doesn’t find the heritage foundation. Google doesn’t fund the heritage foundation. who is it that you think funds the heritage foundation?
