Project 2025: An Interactive Assessment

Project 2025: A Nation Reshaped

An interactive assessment of the rapid implementation of Project 2025 and its profound impact on American governance, economy, and global standing as of June 15, 2025.

Implementation Scorecard

Filter the status of key Project 2025 objectives.

Domestic Policy: Deconstruction & Redefinition

The foundational assault on the administrative state and civil rights.

The 'Schedule Policy/Career' Revolution

The lynchpin of the project was the immediate reclassification of up to 50,000 career federal employees into a new "Schedule Policy/Career" category. This strips them of civil service protections, effectively transforming them into at-will political appointees who can be fired for disloyalty. This "loyalty purge" neutralized institutional resistance and enabled the rapid execution of the agenda.

Agency Realignment Status

Economic Impact: The 'America First' Shock

Sweeping tariffs and deregulation have created a predictable economic disruption.

Projected Long-Term Economic Damage

Independent models from the Penn Wharton Budget Model (PWBM) and the Tax Foundation project significant negative consequences from the administration's tariff policies. Click to compare key metrics.

Foreign Policy: A New World Order

A deliberate abdication of global leadership and realignment toward illiberal states.

NATO 'Transformation'

The administration has pulled back from its leadership role in NATO, handing primary responsibility for deterring Russia to European allies. This is viewed by allies as a de facto U.S. withdrawal, a move that has halted aid to Ukraine and emboldened adversaries like Russia and China by creating a power vacuum.

Withdrawal from the Global Stage

A systematic disengagement from international institutions is underway. The administration has initiated a "cost-benefit analysis" of participation in bodies like the UN and WHO, with the stated intent to "abandon" those seen as eroding U.S. sovereignty. This cedes global influence and undermines coordinated responses to global challenges.

Final Assessment

Has the U.S. season as "leader of the free world" ended?

The evidence suggests this era was deliberately terminated. The administration is not pursuing isolationism but is actively forging a new global coalition of illiberal, nationalist states, fundamentally shifting America's relationship with the world.

Has Project 2025 succeeded in its "destruction"?

In many areas, yes. The independence and expertise of federal agencies have been effectively destroyed, repurposed as tools of political will. Core alliances like NATO are critically damaged. The economy faces a severe, self-inflicted shock, and the nation's reputation as a stable democracy has been undermined.

What goals remain?

The "blitzkrieg" via executive action has been highly effective. The remaining frontier involves goals requiring congressional approval: formally abolishing cabinet departments, overhauling entitlements like Medicare, or repealing bedrock environmental laws. The battle for the administrative state may be won, but the larger constitutional struggle has just begun.
