First of all, I want to make it very clear: I have never participated in women’s sports.
Nor have I read the 900-page document from the Heritage Foundation that Project 2025.
Project 2025 was recently reported on, but I have no plans to read it. And I am in good company in this regard.
According to POLITICO journalist Isabella Ramírez, presidential candidate Donald Trump expressed his view on “Fox and Friends”:
“Project 25, I have no idea what the hell – I don’t even want to see it. I don’t want to read it because I want to say I have no idea what it is,” Trump said. “Some people get together, they do something extreme; I assume it’s extreme. I don’t know. Because I don’t even want to see it. It doesn’t matter.”
Since I am not running for president, I assume that I can read the document without hesitation.
But I won’t do that. For personal reasons.
I have never read a 900 page book and am now too old to start. The longest book I have ever attempted was Moby-Dick, back in college. It was 378 pages, but I stopped after the third chapter. Luckily, my roommate read it and shared his notes with me.
I can read a roommate’s notes and feel completely satisfied.
That is why I have included the introductory notes to the Project 2025 Homepage of the website. (I’m assuming Donald Trump doesn’t even want to read the notices on the website. And I can’t blame him.)
Pretty much everything I needed to know was summarized on the first page of the website. Thankfully.
Project 2025 is a historic movement formed by over 100 respected organizations from across the conservative movement to overthrow the deep state and return government to the people. Their Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise, released in April 2023, is the product of more than 400 academics and policy experts from across the country.
The book offers a series of policy proposals to address our country’s greatest challenges and get America back on track. These include:
- Secure the border, stop building the wall and deport illegal immigrants
- Disarming the federal government through greater accountability and oversight of the FBI and the Department of Justice
- Unleash American energy production to lower energy prices
- Reduce government spending growth to reduce inflation
- The accountability of federal bureaucrats to the democratically elected President and Congress must be strengthened.
- Improving education by transferring control and funding of education from bureaucrats in Washington DC directly to parents and state and local governments
- Ban biological men from participating in women’s sports
We are all for overthrowing the Deep State. In fact, we should overthrow everything Deep State – starting with the State and including Hollywood, Google, and the PTA. Disarming the federal government seems like a good place to start.
But what really confused me is…why is there an attempt to exclude biological men from participating in women’s sports? below the list?
If this is not the GREAT?
Yes, illegal immigration is a serious problem, as are the shackles imposed on the oil industry, and I don’t even want to start on education.
But if we really want to overcome the greatest challenges facing our country, we must focus the federal government’s energy on banning biological men – in a watered-down form, of course.
I know I’m preaching to the choir, but our country was built on freedom and justice for all. While certain politicians (who will remain anonymous) argue that a biological male should have the “freedom” to compete in women’s sports after his (now her) hormones and other physical characteristics have been adjusted accordingly, the word “justice” obviously implies “fairness.”
It is not “fair” for biological men to compete in women’s sports.
Don’t get me wrong. I’m all for women racing in NASCAR, whether they’re biologically male or not. It’s not a women’s sport.
Women’s basketball is a women’s sport. And so is women’s soccer. That’s why we use the word “women.” Because it’s for “women.”
How can we convey this simple idea to our country’s politicians?
Maybe we can update the Pledge of Allegiance? “…One nation under God, with liberty and justice for all, and where only biological females compete in women’s sports.”
Anyway, I want to express my gratitude to the Heritage Foundation. Many of us are thrilled that someone has finally written a 900-page book in defense of women’s sports.
Even if we never read it, we can support it. As long as we don’t run for president.
