The size of the Right Wing and far right media ecosystem has grown in size, power, and its willingness to disregard facts, outright lie, foment conspiracy theories, and abandon all integrity. The goals now are power, influence, and money - democracy be damned.

Hellscape Christian Nationalist plan to be enacted if Trump's wins in 2024. Backed by the right-wing extremist Heritage Foundation, Project 2025 is an authoritarian Christian nationalist movement with 900+ pages of detailed plans to turn America into an autocracy. Legal experts state clearly that it would undermine the rule of law and the separation of powers - and the Heritage Foundation, Trump, and their ilk have no problem with that because this is precisely what they want to accomplish.
