We now have confirmation of what we on the left all knew from the start and Dems are all over it:
Steve Bradbury, a former Trump administration official now with the Heritage Foundation, said in an email last year to a prospective Project 2025 contributor... “Those who show real commitment and provide valuable contributions will be recognized by the leaders of the project, whose recommendations are likely to carry influence with those who make personnel decisions for any future administration that embraces our policy proposals,” Bradbury wrote to Trent McCotter, an attorney who served in the first Trump administration’s Department of Justice, in March 2023. ... The group American Oversight obtained the email through a public records request to George Mason University, where McCotter worked as an adjunct professor at the time. ... Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) highlighted the Bradbury email during a House Oversight Committee hearing on Thursday. “We’ve convened a panel of four witnesses to Project 2025, the MAGA manifesto for a second Trump term, so they can audition for Mr. Trump’s approval and land a spot on his Cabinet,” Raskin said.
This strengthens my personal belief that key figures in Project 2025 were intended to BE Trump’s transition team and that the media shining light on 2025 over the summer was the cause of the Trump campaign being so late in releasing the names of the heads of the transition team - ie I believe they got caught and had to scramble to find new names. Trump ended up merely choosing Trump Jr and Vance (with Linda McMahon as a figure head), and Vance has always been a key contact between Trump and Project 2025. So it’s still just a front for the Project 2025 pipeline into Trump’s administration if America is foolish enough to give him another one.
This is all the flailing, caught red handed Trump camp could come up with, which is nonsense because if one person could do all of that work, then transition teams wouldn’t exist:
