CNN published an investigation revealing that at least 140 people who worked for Trump in his first administration were involved in Project 2025, directly contradicting Trump claims of no association. Trump campaign adviser Chris LaCivita called the project a pain in the a** for the campaign. The investigation documented extensive overlap between Project 2025 authors, the Trump transition team, and the broader MAGA personnel network, establishing that the project was staffed by Trump insiders from the beginning.
