You have already confirmed climate science deniers to head the EPA and the Department of Energy, and an election denier who refuses to say that Trump lost the 2020 presidential election at Attorney General, please don't also confirm the key architect of Project 2025 which called for dramatically reducing the power of Congress and the United States civil service, Russell Vought to direct the Office of Management and Budget. Vought has referred to career civil servants as “villains” and called for ending funding for most government programs. “The stark reality in America is that we are in the late stages of a complete Marxist takeover of the country." You will be unable to distance yourself from the very unpopular ideas of Project 2025 if you vote yes for this nominee. Musk’s people entered the headquarters of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), which provides daily weather and wind predictions; cutting NOAA and privatizing its services is listed as a priority in Project 2025. You need to stand against these unconstitutional power grabs. Stop confirming these unqualified and dangerous nominees or accept the consequences of their decisions.
