This plan\u2019s architects wish to impose a dictatorial revolution on the American People through the Project. This is an explicit plan by some of the closest policymakers and advisors to former President Donald J. Trump to organize an oppressive authoritarian state upon the re-election of Donald Trump to office in January 2025. Project 2025 is a plan to weaponize the federal government and I request that this select subcommittee hold a hearing to take its threats seriously.\n\n\u201cProject 2025\u2019s articulated plans to subjugate the Department of Justice to President Trump\u2019s whims, dismantle the Federal Bureau of Investigations which had been working to ensure that no one is above the law and eliminate the Departments of Education and Commerce among other actions, will make our nation less safe, less smart and less wealthy. By any measure, it is a playbook to consciously weaken our nation.\u201d", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-07T21:11:47Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://plaskett.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=4501"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.9575202129781246, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
