American democracy is facing a profound challenge. The recent election of Donald Trump and his proposed Project 2025 pose significant threats to the freedoms and principles upon which our country was founded. Without decisive action, these threats may irreparably undermine the democratic values that bind us as a nation.

Over nearly a decade, Trump has used misinformation, fear, and division to consolidate power, exploiting biases and distrust to build a movement rooted in disinformation. His rhetoric, policies, and proposed plans are not only misleading but also designed to erode trust in the very institutions and principles that safeguard our freedoms.

Many Americans who recognized the danger of this movement placed their trust in traditional methods—political parties, mainstream media, logic, and civic discourse—to counter it. Unfortunately, these approaches have proven insufficient. Instead, they have highlighted a critical need for innovative, grassroots-driven strategies to address the spread of misinformation and division.

The America Project is a bold initiative designed to combat the disinformation that fuels authoritarianism. By uniting communities, leveraging modern technologies, and fostering grassroots activism, we will empower everyday Americans to reclaim the narrative. Our approach focuses on equipping individuals with the tools, strategies, and resources necessary to engage directly with their neighbors and communities.

This movement will prioritize truth, trust, and local engagement—bypassing the institutions Trump has discredited and creating new pathways to rebuild trust and understanding. By fostering connections at the community level, we aim to counter disinformation, inspire civic participation, and protect the democratic values that define us.
