Donald Trump had a warning to Democrats.
Soon he will decide what "Democrat agencies" he would cut and whether those reductions would be temporary or permanent.
He said the government shutdown, which began on Tuesday, had afforded him an "unprecedented opportunity".
"I have a meeting today with Russ Vought, he of PROJECT 2025 Fame," he posted on his Truth Social website on Thursday morning.
Vought, the director of the White House Office of Management and Budget, may not be a household name.
But Project 2025, a conservative blueprint for governing put together primarily by former Trump officials like Vought when the Republicans were out of power, featured prominently during last year's presidential campaign.
The 900-page policy document contained proposals for dramatic reductions in the size of federal government, expanded presidential authority, rigorous immigration enforcement, a nationwide abortion ban and other elements of an ultra-conservative social agenda.

Thanks for posting. HOORAY President Trump and Russ Vought.
Never let a good crisis go to waste. Looks like that goes both ways.
I’ll bet the BBC writer was crying when he wrote this.
LOL!
Gov’t shutdown followed by MASSIVE gov’t cuts.
Deadly to the Left, and well of life to Americans.

Every cloud ...
We know the rules of engagement now. All those weapons used against Trump starting in 2016? Turns out they are all double-edged....
And they cut both ways.
Your “salmon mousse” meme—what does it mean?
The best thing that could happen to America (next to hearts turning away from trusting in man and toward trusting in the Lord) would be the massive dismantling of the 80%+ unconstitutional portion of the federal gov’t.
As in 1776 when the odds were against us and the invisible Hand of Divine Providence miraculously birthed our nation, so now that same Hand is at work.
Yes., you make this clear in nearly every post!
You’re the most consistent poster on here. I admire it.

Someone here wrote earlier:
“Those Obama Care subsidies don’t end until Dec 31st.”
Why is Schumer needlessly putting lucrative, mainly Democrat-held jobs at risk?
Is he going soft in the head?
I voted for this
Thank you.
I wish I weren’t the only guy saying this stuff. The Right has an amazing ability to somehow avoid the primary issues and, unlike the Left, seems to be clueless about what our primary goals should be. I love Trump, but I honesty wonder how many on FR think the beginning and the end of Making America Great Again is Donald Trump.
The lack of this stuff being posted makes me feel like it desperately needs to be posted. Wonder if that’s how Charlie Kirk felt.
I don’t know if this Russ guy is really involved, but it’s good trolling if he’s not.
I saw TONS of libs screaming about “Project 2025” before the election.
Democrats are starting to split...
Related: From Dr. Steve Turley...
[T]”hree Senate Democrats have already
broken ranks, voting with Republicans to
end the shutdown. So, that would be John
Fetterman...Katheryn
Cortez Masto from Nevada,...in the House, you’ve got
Representative Jared Golden publicly
accusing his own party of giving into
the far left...So, he’s blaming this
entire shutdown on the radical
progressive wing of his party.”
Oops, just above the 3rd “Dem” is independent Angus King.
