Border Security Evolution: Project 2025's Vision for DHS Operations – A Satirical Take

Well, it looks like we’ve got another brilliant plan in the making from Project 2025: the new vision for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and its border security strategy. Buckle up, because this one is sure to impress, or, more accurately, bewilder. According to the great minds behind this initiative, the key to solving all of our border security woes lies in a dazzling combination of…

Just thinking today. Of how I’ve heard this song on PBS…and how if project 2025 got its way, I both wouldn’t have watched this on PBS and maybe would find that this satirical song from fifty some-odd years ago was reality

Donald Trump has repeatedly denied knowing about Project 2025, but he shared a private flight with Heritage Foundation President Kevin Roberts, gave a keynote address at a Heritage conference, and said “they’re going to lay the groundwork for exactly what our movement will do.” So aside from meeting, knowing, and approving, Trump is totally in the dark.

Pusher

"Trump offers an easy escape from the pain....Trump’s promises are the needle in America’s collective vein. Trump is cultural heroin. He makes some feel better for a bit. But he cannot fix what ails them, and one day they’ll realize it." JD VANCE, 2016. His thinking has certainly evolved, if you want to call it that.

10 Things Donald Trump Can’t Do During His Second Term But Probably Will Do Anyways

With President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration being just weeks away, many people are wondering what this new administration will entail. Trump has bold new plans for this country, outlined in his “Project 2025” initiative. And while many of these initiatives may be illegal or unconstitutional, when has that stopped someone as dedicated as Donald Trump? So today The Misinformer will outline for you all of the things Donald Trump technically can’t do during his second term but probably will do anyways.

1. Be a Felon

Little known fact: convicted felons have traditionally been barred from holding public office. However, since Trump won the election in sweeping numbers and is about to become president in a matter of weeks, he’ll make history by not only being the first president with a convicted felony, but 34 of them as well. Diversity win!

2. Rename “Congress” to “Dongress”

While presidents technically don’t have the power to change the names of government buildings, Donald Trump might break this rule as he has a history of naming buildings after himself (à la Trump Tower).

3. Issue Reverse Presidential Pardons

While sending innocent civilians to jail without proper trial might sound authoritarian and fundamentally un-American, Trump has talked about sending his enemies to jail several times, so it could happen.

4. Add His Face to Mount Rushmore

People have been hesitant to add another face to Mount Rushmore as the rocks surrounding the faces aren’t suitable for additional carving, but with Trump’s experience in wall building, we’re sure he can get the job done.

5. Declare Mar-a-Lago the New White House

The constitution mandates that the president works out of the White House, but what is this, China? You can’t just tell people, especially the president, where to live. This is America, dammit!

6. Nuke Andorra

This would technically go against the United Nations’ Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons, but I think the UN will make an exception this one time because come on, those low key motherfuckers are definitely hiding something.

7. Nuke a Hurricane

On the topic of nukes, wouldn’t nuking a hurricane be totally awesome?

8. Run a Prostitution Ring

I think the “Miss America Beauty Pageant” has a better ring to it, though.

9. Label All Transgender People As Sex Offenders

I mean, how else are we supposed to bar them from society?

10. Run for a Third Term

Sure, the 22nd amendment may technically forbid a president from running for more than two terms, but that’s nothing more than a deep state technicality when you really think about it.

I am once again struck by how dystopic Utopia is...

If you look up the word "utopia" you'll get something along the lines of "a place of ideal perfection especially in laws, government, and social conditions." But then you actually read Thomas More's Utopia and like? There's descriptions of warfare? Women being married off?? Slavery??? Hell, the chapters that describe slavery and marrying off women are the same chapter, called "Of Their Slaves, And Of Their Marriages."

Don't get me wrong, there's some fascinating stuff in there that I gladly pilfered for my world building, including communal meals and sleeping quarters as well as mandatory experience in specific trades (as well as forced labour as punishment, because I'm not writing a utopia, I'm writing a gritty fantasy).

The book also starts really strong, with More pointing out how capital punishment for mugging someone is an invitation to killing your mugging victim, as it will eliminate the chief witness without worsening your punishment should you get caught -- part of a set-up after which you are eager to examine the issues of More's time.

But then alongside awesome ideas such as access to divorce and euthanasia, he suggests punishments like enforced celibacy for premarital sex and enslavement for adultry. It's like he's both a bleeding heart liberal and a Project 2025 Incel.

Honestly, I fully understand why there's such a lively debate about what Thomas More was actually advocating with Utopia, because what the hell?

Kevin Roberts of the Heritage Foundation defended Project 2025's plan to cut pollution controls, saying “the United States has some of the cleanest air and water in the developed world.” Next, he's gonna suggest we all stop eating since we're full from supper.

PRETZEL LOGIC

Trump is flat out denying that he knows anything about or has anything to do with Project 2025 . In one breath, he says he knows nothing about it, in the next he says he disagrees with it. Is that pretzel logic, or what? Either he’s full of shit or he’s a babbling idiot. Pick one. “Both” is also an acceptable answer. And of course, there is video of Trump shaking hands with Project 2025’s führer, Kevin Roberts. Apologies to the great Steely Dan.
