Three years ago, San Francisco launched an experiment to give 150 pregnant Black and Pacific Islander women $1,000 a month, no strings attached, for the duration of their pregnancy and six months after the birth.
*** Now, that effort is almost certainly about to come to a screeching halt. And another guaranteed income program to assist San Francisco’s transgender residents — who are 18 times more likely to experience homelessness than the general population — already has been shut down. Participants were only given a month’s notice before being cut off.
*** So, how could two successful programs, lauded by Breed as good-faith efforts to address systemic inequities, be on death’s door?
*** A lawsuit filed in November claimed that because San Francisco’s programs prioritize benefits for people based on gender, race and ethnicity, their use of public funds is discriminatory. The suit was filed by the Californians for Equal Rights Foundation on behalf of two plaintiffs — one of whom is San Francisco mayoral candidate Ellen Zhou. When I dug into the small organization behind the suit, and the Dallas-based lawyers it retained, I found connections to right-wing conspiracy theorists, former California politicians and ties to the Heritage Foundation, which created Project 2025 — the radical Republican blueprint for remaking the government if Donald Trump is reelected president.
The major mission is to ensure that California public agencies treat people fairly and equally, regardless of our race, ethnicity, and other protected classes,” Frank Xu, president of the Californians for Equal Rights Foundation, told me over Zoom. “Racial preferential policies — including critical race theory, and diversity, equity inclusion — are lowering standards for our next generation.”

Thank you for answering.
I don’t agree with you.
The MSM is trying to lie about it and use it to smear Trump, from their lies. Trump has to disavow it, as he has no hand in it and the MSM has tainted it, too.
It's like saying the Salvation Army is embarrassing Trump. How, exactly is that possible, when Trump has nothing to do with the Salvation Army, either?
Lazy people in the media don’t even bother going to Trump’s website.
There is no Project 2025 there.
His is called Agenda 47:

BOY! Have they got a lot of nerve!/s
“”The MSM is trying to lie””
Trying?? TRYING??
I do not even trust the Drive-By Media traffic reports.
That’s not going to stop them. Rats don’t let the truth get in the way of a good narrative. Though Trump has disavowed it just yesterday Kamala was nattering on about it
Start with PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS DISAVOWED IT AND HAS NO ROLE IN IT. Thus, repeating it with President Trump’s name as if he is responsible for it, is undermining Trump and those doing this are just parroting and helping the image promoted by CNN and MSNBC and others.
Well, never, of course. It really makes me question what the Heritage Foundation's goal was in throwing it out there when they did. It's almost like someone said, "hey, we need a new QAnon thing for this election cycle."
when each and every one of them assume room temperature...
“No person” means exactly that
NO PERSON
Trump has said it himself...He has nothing to do with 2025....in any way, shape or form. When will the media and their little helpers stop implying that he does.
**********
Project 2025 likely has some good proposals, so Trump shouldn’t be frightened into disavowing anything in advance. Consider each proposal on its merits, and disavow nothing en masse in advance.
It’s hard to come back from homelessness. Mental health, trust, etc are difficult to rebuild.
You mean the Right is going to do what the Left been doing all thus time?
Lawfare?
Oh my!
My list has some good points, too. So what....2025 does not have the stamp of President Trump.
