First, in my many decades of life, I have been leaned left, right & center at different times. Second, in my opinion, again, over my many decades of life, I have seen both left & right actually reverse their positions. With today's vast and varied information sources, it is really hard for the ordinary citizen to get down to the actual facts. Like Joe Friday on Dragnet, said: "JUST THE FACTS, MA'AM", is a seemingly impossible task these days. I do my best the read, research, even pull up Senate & House bills being discussed, and I actually read it to see what it really says AND importantly, which parts (often very important parts) has everyone failed to mention at all... like the fine print on a contract that they really don't want you to notice. Regarding, Project 2025, FIRST, in my research, I have found it is a product of the Heritage Foundation (a right leaning think tank) and the forward was written by a Kevin Roberts. SECOND, I have read that Trump is behind it and also read that Trump had nothing to do with it. I feel confident in the info on the FIRST point, but the SECOND, all I find is opinions and nothing factual. I am uncertain, so far, whether it even matters since it is the product of a think tank and not from elected officials or candidates & no where in any bills, etc. My opinion is that we must invest some time and hard work to get to the truth. I think as Americans, WE ALL DESERVE THE TRUTH good or bad. If anyone here has sources that are known for "JUST THE FACTS MA'AM", I hope you can share with me. I am not very "I.T. savvy" but can read & understand all I can find on issues. Thanks
