49 days to go until election day ... If you're not keeping count, aren't you glad we are?!?

On today's show:  it's been called the MAGA blueprint for remaking the federal government ... and has become a lightening rod for debate and controversy on the campaign trail.  It's Project 2025, and we're talking with the organization that created it.

But first, let's take a quick sprint around the political world:

Donald Trump is holding his first campaign rally since the second assassination attempt against him was foiled.  The former president will be in the crucial swing state of Michigan, holding a townhall style event in Flint.  Meanwhile multiple investigations into Sunday's incident at Trump's golf course in West Palm Beach are just getting underway ... as the Secret Service looks to ramp up protection procedures around the candidate.

The Biden administration's deputy attorney general said today that the Justice Department is fielding an alarming surge of violent threats against public officials and election workers.  The risks for poll workers and state and local election officials is said to be particularly troubling ... with increasing fears that violent acts might be carried out on election day itself.

Vice President Kamala Harris had what was reported as a "tense" meeting with leadership from the Teamsters Union ... emerging WITHOUT an endorsement from the labor organization representing some 1-point-3-million workers.  While Harris has received endorsements from just about every major labor union in the country, Sean O'Brien and his Teamsters have been holding out.  If an endorsement comes, it could happen as soon as tomorrow.

It is a 900-page wish list for the next Republican president of the United States ... with plans for remaking the entire federal bureaucracy in a far more conservative light and tearing down much of the administrative state.  But Project 2025 from the right-wing think tank, the Heritage Foundation, doesn't stop there:  it's a conservative re-imagination of American life, from immigration to abortion to LGBTQ rights.

That's the focus for today's Countdown 2024 ... we're talking with Ryan Walker, he's the executive vice president of Heritage Action ... the lobbying and advocacy arm of the Heritage Foundation.
