āPeople will lose their jobs,ā the think tankās president says about federal workers. āHopefully their lives are able to flourish in spite of that.ā
Since taking over the Heritage Foundation in 2021, Kevin D. Roberts has been making his mark on an institution that came to prominence during the Reagan years and has long been seen as an incubator of conservative policy and thought.
Roberts, who was not well known outside policy circles when he took over, has pushed the think tank away from its hawkish roots by arguing against funding the war in Ukraine, a turnabout that prompted some of Heritageās policy analysts to leave. Now heās looking ahead, to the 2024 election and beyond.
Roberts told me that he views Heritageās role today as āinstitutionalizing Trumpism.ā This includes leading Project 2025, a transition blueprint that outlines a plan to consolidate power in the executive branch, dismantle federal agencies and recruit and vet government employees to free the next Republican president from a system that Roberts views as stacked against conservative power. The lesson of Trumpās first year in office, Roberts told me, is that āthe Trump administration, with the best of intentions, simply got a slow start. And Heritage and our allies in Project 2025 believe that must never be repeated.ā
Hate is a strong wordā¦and I hate the Heritage Foundation.
I had an RSS feed of them recently that I had to delete. You know how intellectuals bought into Hitlerās vision? Thatās what Heritage is for Trumpās American fascism. They wholeheartedly believe in it and will lie through their teeth to make it happen.
Iām just sayināā¦if I lose my job, Iām gonna sign up for Hexbear. net andā¦uhhā¦weāll see what happensā¦
Hexbear will tell you that Trump is no worse than Biden. Legitimately, they constantly repeat that. Itās insane.
Start making molotovs instead.
Yeah I know. Theyāre insane and basically agents of chaos sleeper cells. Thatāll be me
Theyāre just trolls who like being contrarians. In 30 yearsā time theyāll be your uncle on Facebook-equivalent making racist posts and Just Asking Questions.
Incorrect. Goddamn pug Jesus, you should at least make an effort to lurk enough over there to know wtf youāre talking about. That way you could make accurate accusations or insults towards them.
No, Iāve been dealing with tankies forā¦ Christ, over a decade and a half at this point.
Iāve seen their life cycle. Hexbear arenāt the subspecies who turn into bitter old Trots college professors.
ā¦thatās a long ass time.
ā¦ yeah. I imagine in another decade and a half Iāll be bitterly musing about how Iāve been arguing with tankies for most of my life, lmao.
Hexbear is the septic tank of thoughtless praxis.
Theyāre pretty much right. You donāt see many liberals worried about the wall these days
Because Biden isnāt going to build it?

I think thatās a lot of people if America becomes a dictatorship. If they think the populace is going down without a fight, they have a whole fucking nother thing coming to them. The only way an American dictator survives the first year is if theyāre hidden in a bunker underground.
