Most of us are unhappy with the current administration's approach to the genocide in Palestine, and for good reason.
But the explicit goal of Project 2025 is to abandon Palestine to their fate:
The Palestinian Authority should be defunded. […] USAID should consider cutting aid… USAID continues to expend hundreds of millions of dollars in nonhumanitarian aid to antagonistic regimes in Iraq, Lebanon, and the Palestinian territories.
Remember that this is a marketing document as well as a political one; cutting aid to individuals in war-torn regions sounds bad… unless you brand them as "antagonistic" merely due to the country where they were born, or fled to.
What does USAID do?
The goal of USAID programs is to improve the lives of the Palestinian people to set conditions for a viable two-state solution between Palestinians and Israelis. USAID addresses the economic and development aspirations of the Palestinians people. USAID promotes private sector-led development; improves access to essential services like healthcare and clean water; increases opportunities for young people; supports civil society and vulnerable populations; and provides life-saving humanitarian assistance.
Project 2025 claims these projects — peace, economic development, education etc — are "nonhumanitarian."
And one of Project 2025's specific plans is to cut educational funding:
[…] USAID’s investments in the education sector, for example, serve no other purpose than to subsidize corrupt, incompetent, and hostile regimes.
![A set of bar graphs depicting the effects of overtime on a worker's paycheck. At the top, a snippet from Project 2025 reads: "Attention: Republican Agenda. Specifically, employers...should be able to set a two or four week period over which to calculate overtime. This...would not require the employer to pay [employees] more for that same total number of hours of work during the entire period."
Underneath on the left is a set of green bars depicting Week 1, Week 2, Week 3, and Week 4.
In Week One, there is a darker shaded section pointing out that the worker has worked more than 40 hours and is eligible for overtime.
Week 2 is a little less than 40 hours, and the last two weeks are normal (40 hours).
At the bottom of this set of bars, a summary reads: "You're paid overtime for EVERY week over time, regardless of other weeks."
On the right, a set of red bar graphs depicting Week 1 through 4. In Week 1, the employee has clearly worked more than 40 hours based on the long bar, but there is no overtime shading.
Week 2 is less than 40, and Week 3 and 4 are both 40.
At the bottom of this set of bars, a summary reads: "Your employer will AVERAGE weeks together...and you won't get paid."
A Republican win in November means: Same hours. No overtime.
