JD Vance Loved Heritage Foundation Fascist Ideas In 2017

Before JD Vance was the Republican vice-presidential nominee, he endorsed a little-known 2017 report by the Heritage Foundation, the organization that brought America Project 2025. It appears the GOP VP candidate loved the Heritage Foundation's fascist ideas way back in 2017!

The New York Times reported Vance was such a big fan of the Heritage Foundation's 2017 report that he "championed" the project. The "Hillbilly Elegy" author wrote the introduction to the report and praised the Heritage Foundation manifesto as "admirable" and even served as the keynote speaker at the event that rolled out the report to the public.

The New York Times noted the 2017 report included essays from Republican leaders, writers, and clergy members. The outlet reported,
"They didn't like in vitro fertilization or other fertility treatments because they thought it hurt women. They also liked the new laws that stopped people from getting abortions and said people should stop thinking about having an abortion in America. Some of them believed that hunger could motivate Americans to find jobs."
