effective — not implemented just because someone’s job is on the line…What is happening now is a quick and performative election-year gimmick,” Peskin said in a statement. “Mayor Breed and former Mayor Farrell are advocating for failed policies from the past that simply sweep our homeless problem from one neighborhood to another without any long-term solutions.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Tough Love\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Advocates for people experiencing homelessness say that although Breed’s rhetoric has ramped up, her actual policies have not changed as dramatically.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Her narratives have shifted as she has seen political opportunity,” said Christin Evans, a small business owner in the Haight Ashbury neighborhood and vice chair of the city’s Homelessness Oversight Commission. “I think in this particular political moment, the rhetoric is amplified.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Evans pointed to the mayor’s recent order \u003cspan style=\"margin: 0px;padding: 0px\">that city workers conducting sweeps first offer homeless people \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11998474/breed-orders-sf-homeless-outreach-workers-to-offer-relocation-out-of-city-before-shelter\"

it sound like she is doing something when it’s really theater,” Evans said. “She has been capable and able to address these issues all along, and she hasn’t done that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back in 2018, when running for mayor, Breed promoted a tough-love approach in her plans to address homelessness. “There is nothing compassionate or safe about relegating people, particularly those suffering from mental health or addiction issues, to sleep on our streets,” she said at the time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breed was also careful to contextualize homelessness as the result of larger structural inequalities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Homelessness often seems like a uniquely, or at least, acutely San Francisco problem. But it isn’t,” she \u003ca href=\"https://londonbreed.medium.com/a-bold-approach-to-homelessness-a42121dc586c\">wrote in a Medium post\u003c/a> during her campaign. “The federal government has been cutting supportive housing and homelessness funding for decades and leaving cities holding the bag.

Ron DeSantis, Trump started to do these little videos articulating what they called Agenda 47: What he would do when he came back in office. And most of them were very responsive to whatever the hot issue on Fox News, and in the right, happened to be at the moment … all these really random things.\u003ca href=\"https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/06/18/trump-has-unveiled-an-agenda-his-own-he-just-doesnt-mention-it-much/\"> [See Bump’s searchable tool for Agenda 47 for \u003cem>The Washington Post\u003c/em>.] \u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But fundamentally … he doesn’t want to offer a lot of specifics. This is a guy whose career prior to becoming a politician was a salesman — and not only was he a salesman, he was a guy selling real estate in New York. Which is, you know, like selling used cars in Topeka. This is not someone whose track record of salesmanship is rooted in the most robust ethics.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And so he doesn’t \u003cem>want \u003c/em>to commit. He wants to tell people what he wants to tell them in order to make the sale, and so that means being very vague.

He tried to implement that. It didn’t take hold.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Biden reversed the decision, came into office, and then tried to put in some roadblocks to keep doing that. But there really is broad power that [Trump]’s got to effect the changes, the bureaucracies he wants to see.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He’s also, of course, empowered by a Supreme Court that has shown a lot of deference to the worldview that Donald Trump represents. I mean, if this comes down to a fight at the Supreme Court between federal employees and Donald Trump in terms of where power should lie, it’s pretty obvious where the Supreme Court’s going to land.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Project 2025 is a wishlist that goes beyond reshaping government\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>I think it’s important to recognize, too, that when we talk about this, it’s sort of a wish list that the people who, for a long time, have been frustrated with particular aspects of the federal government are happy to put down on paper. “Oh, well, we should get rid of this agency or that agency,” and so on and so forth. There’s a lot of that sort of thing that exists in Project 2025, or at least in this 900-page document.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.vox.com/politics/360318/project-2025-trump-policies-abortion-divorce\">There’s also a lot of social issues\u003c/a>: things like overhauling the ways in which people can be charged with crimes for alleged voter fraud; things that are responsive to Donald Trump’s efforts to try and claim that the 2020 election was stolen. There are changes, potentially, in the ways in which divorce is handled in the United States.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It is really a wish list of: if you have heard a conservative or a Republican say, “Hey, wouldn’t it be great if?” over the course of the past 20 years, the odds are good that they got someone to write up 300 words and put it in this document explaining why this should be part of the next administration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.vox.com/politics/360318/project-2025-trump-policies-abortion-divorce\">[See Vox’s roundup of what is — and isn’t — in Project 2025, including plans to restrict abortion and contraceptives.]\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>It won’t necessarily matter if Project 2025 isn’t ‘popular’ with most Americans\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Part of the reason the Trump campaign is freaked out [about being associated with Project 2025] is because they don’t want to be tied to this thing, because they \u003cem>know \u003c/em>there are aspects of it that can be picked out and pointed to that are not popular. Even his vague statement about how he disagrees with some of what’s in there, they can apply that to whatever they want to apply to, to say that he disagrees with it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it’s important to recognize, too, that all of this is predicated on, to some extent, the minority position having more power. The minority position in 2016 was that Donald Trump should not be president. And then he won because of the Electoral College.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Supreme Court that scaled back \u003ca href=\"https://www.nrdc.org/stories/what-happens-if-supreme-court-ends-chevron-deference\">Chevron deference\u003c/a> and that \u003ca href=\"https://www.reuters.com/legal/us-supreme-court-due-rule-trumps-immunity-bid-blockbuster-case-2024-07-01/\">gave Trump — or presidents — immunity\u003c/a> was one that was appointed. Three of the justices were appointed by Trump after he won only because he liked the Electoral College. Four of the six Republican-nominated justices got votes from senators who represent less than half of the country right there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unless he wins the popular vote in November, which is possible … the ways in which he wields power, or plans to wield power, are based on a minority of Americans getting their way.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>The Heritage Foundation behind Project 2025 has openly spoken of ‘revolution’\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“We are in the process of the second American Revolution, which will remain bloodless if the left allows it to be.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>– Kevin Roberts, president of the Heritage Foundation\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The Heritage Foundation was, for a long time, one of the key think tanks on the right in Washington, D.C. And it did the work that right-wing think tanks usually do, which is put together policy proposals and advocate for a reduction in the size of government.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But unlike some other think tanks, it really leaned into the power shift that accompanied Donald Trump. And part of it, I think, is the advent of Roberts, who has only been there for a couple of years — and the Heritage Foundation has really perceptively shifted in tone since Roberts has been in charge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think his “revolution” comments were obviously alarming and, frankly, from the context of the head of the Heritage Foundation, unprecedented. And it was striking to me because he was basically saying that we’re in the process of a second American Revolution, but what he and Project 2025 are advocating for — if we extend that analogy — is not an increase in freedom and independence as the first revolution was fought, but a return to the monarchy and establishing a very powerful, unchecked political figure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So it’s sort of another revolution — in reverse. And I think we’re all praying that it remains “bloodless.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

And it did the work that right-wing think tanks usually do, which is put together policy proposals and advocate for a reduction in the size of government.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But unlike some other think tanks, it really leaned into the power shift that accompanied Donald Trump. And part of it, I think, is the advent of Roberts, who has only been there for a couple of years — and the Heritage Foundation has really perceptively shifted in tone since Roberts has been in charge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think his “revolution” comments were obviously alarming and, frankly, from the context of the head of the Heritage Foundation, unprecedented. And it was striking to me because he was basically saying that we’re in the process of a second American Revolution, but what he and Project 2025 are advocating for — if we extend that analogy — is not an increase in freedom and independence as the first revolution was fought, but a return to the monarchy and establishing a very powerful, unchecked political figure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So it’s sort of another revolution — in reverse.
