Sounds like Democrats can't run on their agenda because it's failing in cities all across the nation...so they're going to go with scaring people with bullshit like this. Domesticating government? She's scared that some of the liberals that are embedded into Government like ticks on a dog are going to be replaced with people that believe in the Constitution and the rule of law.The Heritage Foundation — a well-funded, influential far-right group in Washington, DC — has been quietly vetting tens of thousands of arch-conservative acolytes to staff up the federal government under the next Republican administration as part of its "Project 2025" presidential transition plan. One scholar of authoritarian movements around the globe is sounding the alarm over what that would mean should former President Donald Trump win a second term in the White House.
During a Saturday segment on MSNBC, New York University professor Ruth Ben-Ghiat told host Ali Velshi that Project 2025 would effectively transform American government from a meritocratic democracy to a regime resembling Vladimir Putin's Russia. She pointed to Heritage's calls to eliminate numerous government agencies that serve as checks on the executive branch as merely one example.
"The essence of authoritarianism is removing restraints on the leader and making him immune from prosecution by domesticating government," Ben-Ghiat said. "And so some of what Project 2025 proposes, like abolishing the DOJ and the FBI is designed for that end, to make it impossible to prosecute Trump and allow him to commit crimes with impunity."

Sounds ominous to me! What do you think?
The FBI leadership is corrupt to the core. That much is obvious. The rank and file is fine. People don't trust the FBI because they know they've been lied to by it's leadership. That leadership needs to go.
