“Today’s episode analyses the Trump administration's “Project 2025,” a proposed policy roadmap intended to restructure American institutions. Dr. Jaime Hoerricks argues that the project represents a dangerous shift toward neoliberalism and neocolonialism, with policies aimed at dismantling public goods, exacerbating inequality, and consolidating power in the hands of a wealthy elite. Dr. Hoerricks highlights the project's proposed education policies, arguing that they will commodify public education, prioritise religious instruction over critical thinking, and promote a narrow, exclusionary cultural narrative. Dr. Hoerricks further criticises the project's economic policies, arguing that they will entrench economic hierarchies through debt, credentialism, and the devaluing of professional standards. Ultimately, Dr. Hoerricks argues that Project 2025 represents a threat to American democracy and a betrayal of the nation's social compact.”
