PROJECT 2025
The Full List of Government Agencies and Programs Frozen by Trump
Those of us who warned you about Project 2025 are now forced to go beyond “We told you so” and rescue you from yourselves if you voted for Trump.
I’d rather you suffered the consequences of voting for him, to be honest, but sadly, we all suffer, so now we have to fight for you. Sucks.
Last night, Trump’s Office of Management and Budget (OMB), which will soon be led by Project 2025 goon (and editor) Russell Vought, issued a two page memo pausing all federal financial assistance aside from Medicare and Social Security payments.
A federal court in the District of Columbia temporarily stayed this order last night (January 28) because it is unconstitutional.
However, the situation is fluid.
Almost every government agency is affected. If the Supreme Court steps in and allows it, everyone who has any interaction with any of the agencies listed below is in for a world of hurt. Also, Congress will, in effect, be disbanded because its basic purpose will be eliminated (Congress’s main job is to write laws and allocate money — a crazy idea the founders had to avoid the excesses of the British monarchy).
