Heritage president Kevin Roberts, in a truly revealing passage of his Foreword to the Project 2025 policy agenda, states that the project of “dismantling the administrative state” is not about the actual size of government at all: The goal is to cut “the secret lifeblood of the Great Awokening.”

650 people in Brewer, Maine — ready to set off a political earthquake. As Maine goes, so goes the nation. And that’s exactly why the politicians in Washington, D.C. are so scared.

Two of the most common climate misconceptions I see, even among knowledgeable folks, are that (1) most people aren't worried about climate change, and (2) if they were, they'd act. Not true! Data show (1) most people are worried, but (2) they won’t act if they don’t know what to do-and most don’t.
