00:00I don't want to complicate, but just look at this right-wing Project 2025.
00:07Oh, but it's really focused on, you heard about it, it's a blueprint for the second
00:13Trump term that every American should read and understand.
00:17Now, of course, Trump is lying about it now.
00:21He said, tries to distance himself, just like he's trying to distance himself from all returning
00:25Roe v. Wade, because he knows how toxic it is.
00:28But we're not going to let that happen, and the press shouldn't either.
00:34Project 2025 is run and paid for by Trump people, his top policy people, his campaign
00:40press secretary, his personal bag man in the White House, the biggest funders and more.
00:45It was a project built for Trump.
00:47Folks, Project 2025 is the biggest attack on our system of government and our personal
00:53freedom that has ever been proposed in the history of this country.
00:57And here's the nightmare, what it would unleash.
01:00Trump Project 2025 will criminalize the shipping of abortion medications, medication, anywhere
01:08to deny contraceptive covers, allow a ban nationwide.
01:14That's what Project 2024-25 is calling about.
01:19Project 2025 will deploy the Department of Justice to prosecute Trump's enemies, and
01:27that's the real deal, Trump's enemies.
01:29Trump himself calls his campaign, the campaign is what he calls it, revenge and retribution.
01:35That's what he says.
01:36Well, Trump's 2025 project will eliminate the civil service.
01:41No, I'm serious, not a joke, read it.
01:46And he will let, and it will allow him to hire tens of thousands of civil servants that
01:51are running only because they support Trump.
01:54They have to take a loyalty oath to Trump beforehand.
01:57Folks, that's not the United States of America.
02:02Trump's 2025 project will cut Social Security, Medicare, rip away protections for pre-existing
02:08health conditions, will eliminate $35 a month cap on insulin, allowing drug companies to
02:13jack up the prices back up to 400 bucks a month, stop Medicare from negotiating lower
02:18drug prices.
02:19And by the way, I got criticized for taking on Medicare.
02:24I mean, I've taken on the drug companies, the pharma for that.
02:27Well, it's not damn right, it's all right.
02:30But by the way, you know what it did?
02:33When I won, it cut the federal budget by $160 billion.
02:46Trump's project 2025 will eliminate the Department, he wants to eliminate the Department of Education.
02:51Not a joke.
02:54He wants to cut school lunch programs.
02:59I know this almost sounds like a joke, but I'm real.
03:04He wants to eliminate Head Start for low-income children.
03:09His project will allow employers to stop paying overtime for hourly workers, but give the
03:16very wealthy.
03:18Another massive tax cut, the tax cut he's proposed is for $5 trillion over the next
03:2410 years.
03:26Folks, project 2025 is going to let him round up over 10 million people in America and put
03:31them in detention camps.
03:35You heard him say it, you heard him say what he wants to do.
03:38That's what he says he's going to do.
03:40Ripping them away from their homes, their schools, because Trump calls them animals
03:46that poison the blood of America.
03:49Look, folks, there's only one reason, only some of Trump's plan 2025, and it goes on
03:56for 900 pages.
03:58We've never seen anything like this, and it's not a joke.
04:01It's time for us to stop treating politics like entertainment and reality TV.
04:07Another four years with Donald Trump is deadly serious, deadly serious.
04:17His proposals are deadly serious.
04:19America needs to wake up and realize that Trump and his mega-republicans, what they're
04:23trying to do.
04:25We're going to join them, we're going to engage them, and we're going to stop them.
04:37Folks, we all know it's not enough just to be against something.
04:42We have to be for something.
04:45So today I'm going to start by laying out the first 100 days of my second term.
04:52And here it is.
04:54The first bill I'm going to introduce will restore Roe v. Wade to make the law the land.
