Project 2025 provides a roadmap for “the next conservative President” to fundamentally change how the federal government works. Former President Donald Trump has claimed he knows nothing about it. Democrats call it “Trump’s Project 2025 agenda.” Here, we take a look at the plan: what’s in it, who wrote it and what the candidates have said about it.
Former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris each claim they helped to revive American manufacturing and that the other has hurt it. And they both select cherry-picked data points to underscore their arguments.

In Vice President Kamala Harris’ acceptance speech, we found familiar claims about taxes, abortion, birth control, and Social Security and Medicare.
Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz accepted his party’s vice presidential nomination, and repeated claims he has made before about the Republican ticket. Other speakers tried to link former President Donald Trump to Project 2025, among other claims.

Now, however, GOP vice presidential nominee JD Vance and the Trump campaign are attacking Walz on his military record, accusing the Minnesota governor of “stolen valor.”
