Episode Twenty-Six - Tiffany Williams

Founder of Project 2025 Takedown, among many other things
1

Tiffany Williams grew up in an extremely conservative evangelical home in Texas, got a degree in journalism at Abilene Christian University, and started a career and family firmly ensconced in the belief that this was going to be her life. Two things changed that trajectory. One was moving to Montana, and the second was the election of Donald Trump. I kept seeing Tiffany’s name or image coming up in various events, and when I contacted her about doing an interview, I told her “I have been thinking about interviewing you for my podcast, but I can’t figure out exactly what you do. You seem to wear about twelve hats.” So this interview is an attempt to answer that question. But the main thing Tiffany is focused on lately is a substack page named Project 2025 Takedown. Tiffany spent a weekend reading a 920-page document complied by the Heritage Foundation that basically lays out the agenda for the next Trump presidency, and she was horrified enough to start a blog about it, which you can find here:

As usual, I want to thank Phil Aaberg for his amazing music, as well as Buchanan Capital for sponsoring this podcast.

Also, remember that for the next week, I’m offering a discount to become a paid subscriber. Thanks for listening!

The State of Montana
Montana has a long history of very complicated politics, often influenced by major corporations, as with the Copper Kings in our early history, or oil money. But we also have a strong track record of very progressive milestones, the most significant of which was the election of the first woman to ever serve in Congress, Jeanette Rankin. We also have what most constitutional historians consider one of the strongest state constitutions in the country. We have always boasted a very significant balance of power as well, but recently that has changed, and I want to understand why, and what can be done about it. So I'm going to interview some of our more high-profile citizens, not necessarily politicians, to explore this issue. My first guest will be Dorothy Bradley, who was the first woman to run for governor of the state. Dorothy just barely lost to Marc Racicot in 1992.
