Former President Donald Trump has outlined his plans to significantly reshape the federal government if he were to return to the White House, including the deportation of millions of undocumented immigrants, the abolition of government agencies, and the replacement of tens of thousands of workers with loyalists. Liberal organizations in Washington are backing President Joe Biden in the hopes that Trump will not secure a second term. However, they are quietly working to establish roadblocks in case he does.
A coalition of activists, advocates, and legal experts is advocating for new federal rules to limit presidential power while urging the Biden administration to take further steps to safeguard his accomplishments and limit the potential impact of a second Trump term. This effort is occurring with considerably less attention than the Trump supporters' endeavor called 'Project 2025,' which aims to establish a conservative government-in-waiting.
