Project 2025 chief’s book urges ‘burning’ of FBI, New York Times and Boy Scouts

Revealed: new book by far-right Kevin Roberts calls for conservatives to ‘burn away the rot’ of US institutions

A new book by the chief architect of Project 2025, a hugely controversial policy plan for a second Trump term, repeatedly employs imagery of fire and burning, including calling for rightwingers to “burn away the rot” of American institutions and organizations deemed opposed to conservative aims.

The news comes after a White House address on Thursday, two days after Donald Trump beat Kamala Harris in the US presidential election, when Joe Biden called on Americans to “bring down the temperature” after months of heated political battle.
