More insanity from Project 2025 [1]

Here is another way the orange felon will get us all killed: resumption of underground, and possibly above-ground, nuclear weapons testing.
Project 2025 calls for the United States to “Reject ratification of the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty and indicate a willingness to conduct nuclear tests in response to adversary nuclear developments if necessary.”
If (please dear God, not when) Petie Hegseth runs the Pentagon, we would be so much closer to actually using nuclear weapons. For these cretins it would be just for kicks, entertainment for the deranged Heritage Foundation and all its sycophants.
In addition to killing billions of people, and making billions more sick, a war with opponents using nuclear weapons would render our entire planet uninhabitable.
And from the same article:
Las Vegas has expanded to the borders of the former nuclear test site in the past decades, and its economic strength has grown. Nuclear explosions under the very suburbs of the city are bound to impact land values, both commercial and residential, and skew its reputation as the global capital of entertainment. The mental and physical impacts on the inheritors of the down-winder saga likewise cannot be discounted.
I am old enough to remember duck-and-cover drills. My elementary school basement had signs telling folks it was a place to seek shelter from fallout. The Make America Great Again crowd seem quite happy to go back to the days when nuclear annihilation was just minutes away. There are probably some morons in the White House right now thinking that nuclear winter would be a great way to combat global warming (that they don’t believe in). Nearly a thousand pages of Project 2025 promote all the worst ways to run our country. Those who brought it into being are sick f#cks.
