Who is behind the most dangerous authoritarian push in modern U.S. politics? In Part Two of this exposé, Bella Goode uncovers how Russell Vought and Stephen Miller—two unelected power brokers—are already executing Project 2025. From dismantling agencies to planning military crackdowns and weaponizing the law, their agenda is no longer theoretical. Tune in to learn what they’ve already done, what’s coming next, and what it will take to stop them.


Key Takeaways To Listen For

  • How Russell Vought is reshaping government through agency purges, Schedule F, and defunding human rights programs
  • Alarming legal tactics Stephen Miller is using to push mass deportations, eliminate birthright citizenship, and undermine civil liberties
  • The dangerous revival of Nixon-era impoundment powers and efforts to sideline Congress and the courts
  • Why activists are warning of a looming constitutional crisis over presidential control of federal spending
  • The rise of grassroots resistance: Hands-off coalitions, 5501 protests, and court battles to stop the Project 2025 agenda
