1. Yep. There's something that'll piss off every single American in Project 2025

Including Texas farmers gathering for breakfast at a certain country diner (no, NYTimes, I won’t tell you where it is). Chapter 10 is all about agriculture and it is chock-full of favors for Big Ag. Any small, family-owned farms that benefited from crop insurance, CRP, ARC, or PLC during the past 8 years will discover Project 2025 outlines dismantling or curtailing those programs. They propose raising insurance premiums and outright repealing assistance programs.

And if they don’t like what a tRump administration does to their bottom line at a time of rapid climate and weather changes, well, they won’t be able to vote against it if tRump becomes a dictator on day one.
