Guardrails still exist, starting with grand juries, which are declining to indict criminal cases that are lacking. We need to remember the Constitution puts power in other hands for a reason. It’s time to use it.

How do we know this?
Even the Heritage Foundation - which issued Project 2025 - said this in 2017:
