Project 2025 Private Training Video: Conserving America (ProPublica) (www.youtube.com)

ProPublica and Documented obtained more than 14 hours of never-before-published videos from Project 2025’s Presidential Administration Academy, which are intended to train the next conservative administration's political appointees “to be ready on day one.”

Project 2025, the controversial playbook and policy guide created by the Heritage Foundation for a future conservative presidential administration, has lost its director. In recent weeks, it faced scathing criticism from both Democratic groups and former President Donald Trump, whose campaign has tried to distance itself from the effort. But Project 2025’s plan to train an army of political appointees who could battle against the so-called deep state government bureaucracy remains on track.

For transparency, we are publishing the videos as we obtained them.

There is so much wrong with this:

"Gender Kamph"
"America was founded at a particular time... by a particular people..."
"Bad history ideas" like seeing our history as systemically racist...

But the way he invokes slavery multiple times then pretends that a conservative ideology actually helped eradicate it, ignoring Jim Crow and all that followed, is especially sinister.
