JD Vance Prepares for Debate with Monica Crowley

Republican vice presidential candidate J.D. Vance is preparing for his upcoming debate against Minnesota Governor Tim Walz with assistance from Monica Crowley, a contributor to the controversial Project 2025 manifesto. This document has been criticized for promoting authoritarian and Christian nationalist policies, including proposals that could lead to a national ban on abortion. Despite attempts by Trump's campaign to distance itself from Project 2025, Vance's reliance on a contributor from this network suggests a closer alignment with its goals. Crowley, who previously served in the Trump administration, will participate in mock debates, underscoring the campaign's strategic ties to the manifesto. Critics argue that the broader agenda behind Project 2025 reveals alarming intentions to reshape American governance. Vance's selection as Trump's running mate has also raised concerns about the potential for a more extreme conservative agenda in the White House.
