From Washington and beyond

Hello, probation officer?

Join us at 3 p.m. E.T. this Wednesday, August 14, when Colin Dickey and Laura Marsh talk about the book that has caused the Trump campaign weeks of embarrassment. Dawn’s Early Light by Kevin Roberts, president of the Heritage Foundation and architect of Project 2025, outlines a disturbing and unpopular vision for the United States—which J.D. Vance endorsed in an incendiary foreword, obtained by The New Republic.

 

Dawn’s Early Light was originally slated to hit shelves this September, but the controversy surrounding it led to the publisher pushing its release until after Election Day. The New Republic was able to read an advance copy of the book, and we believe voters should know what it says—before they go to the polls. We look forward to walking you through it.
