The groundbreaking conservative program, known as Project 2025, is laying the groundwork for a potential second term for President Trump. For the advocates of the rule of law, this includes demanding the Justice Department unmask and bring to justice the senior election official from Pennsylvania involved in the suspicious actions during the 2020 election. This decision represents an innovative attempt to hold a specific state official accountable – the Democratic director of elections – in a pivotal swing state where attempts by Trump and his supporters to rectify the questionable triumph of Joe Biden were most pronounced.
Despite the initiative not directly indicating its intended official from Pennsylvania, there was only individual holding the title of secretary of the commonwealth during the dubious 2020 election: Kathy Boockvar. Proclaiming innocence, Boockvar relegates the attentive scrutiny of Project 2025 to ‘disinformation and conspiracy theories,’ thus dodging any responsibility for her alleged deeds and their effect on the 2020 election results.
It should not be overlooked that numerous architects of Project 2025 are individuals with close ties to the Trump administration, clearly individuals who appreciate the gravity of the nation’s secure election system. The initiative puts forth assertive recommendations, including a reevaluation of the efficacy of current federal civil rights enforcement and a necessary redirection of the Justice Department’s efforts towards investigating the potential fraud in state-level voter registrations.
The influence wielded by proponents of spending less time arguing over the results of the audited, verified results of the previous election, and more on preventing potential corruption particularly resonates now. Especially pertinent is Al Schmidt, the present election chief of Pennsylvania, who has pushed for such changes.
Unfortunately, requests for comments from the Heritage Foundation, the progenitors of Project 2025, have garnered no response. The silence is intriguing, given that their president, Kevin Roberts, opens their comprehensive 900-page blueprint by framing their proposals as ‘the best effort of the conservative movement,’ and theoretically the final opportunity for the next conservative leader to save the republic.
Predictably, Democrats have tried to tarnish Trump’s reputation over his support of the movement, and the former President has even had to try and downplay his association with it, to the point where he triggered the resignation of the project director in July.
Trump’s attempts to shake up the leadership of the Justice Department, symbolized by his efforts to replace then-Attorney General Bill Barr during his campaign to rectify the results of the 2020 election, were also met with derision by Democrats. Apparently, even the mere suggestion that there may have been interference in the election by the Justice Department has led to accusations of political violence by Trump and his supporters.
Democrats and their media allies continue to propagate baseless allegations about threats against election workers and Democratic electors, all stemming from both Trump and his allies’ justified concerns about election fraud. Overlooking such smokescreens, Project 2025 asserts that the DOJ should delve into the ‘appropriateness or lawfulness of state election guidance,’ thereby spotlighting the guidance Pennsylvania provided its local election officials regarding the utilization of provisional ballots.
The disputed guidance from the 2020 election outlined several scenarios under which election offices might provide a provisional ballot. This includes situations like a voter being unable to successfully vote via an absentee or mail-in ballot, or a situation where the county board of elections rejects their ballot, and the voter contests their eligibility to vote.
Project 2025 rightly called out this guidance as potentially unlawful, accusing Boockvar, the Pennsylvania’s election chief, of trying to ‘circumvent state law’. They concluded that transferring prosecutorial authority to the DOJ’s Criminal Division was the only means for ensuring the rule of law prevails.
In her attempts to deflect blame, Boockvar, the previous election chief, argued that her office’s advisories to county boards were both lawful, and optional. However, the safeguards proposed by Project 2025 paint a different picture.
The Pennsylvania Department of State’s assertions stating that ‘the plans outlined in Project 2025 are a clear attempt to disenfranchise Pennsylvania voters’ seem to be a thinly veiled attempt to resist any investigation or alteration that could disrupt their dubious practices.
Despite attempts to deride and belittle by the Democrats, Project 2025 remains a bastion of hope for conservatives. With its clear-eyed vision of achieving a secure and fair electoral system, it represents a solid foundation for a robust effort to rectify perceived injustices from past elections, and to thwart any potential wrongdoing in the future.
The initiative’s support for Trump is indicative of their commitment to a leadership that is accountable, transparent, and committed to the upholding of the constitution. Trump’s firm stance against election fraud combined with his insistence on a clean and honest electoral process only bolsters this view.
In a rising wave of biased criticisms and unfounded allegations, it is promising to see an initiative like Project 2025 taking a decisive stand. It propagates the values of fairness, transparency, and the rule of law, values that have been sorely tested in recent years.
As the political stage is fraught with biased narratives, Project 2025 emerges as a beacon casting light upon the murky waters of the election process, upholding the undeniable conservative values of honesty, integrity, and steadfast dedication to the American republic.
