Found in its pages is the conservative movement’s detailed road map for a second Donald Trump presidency, one backed by the influential Heritage Foundation, a right-wing think tank, and dozens of other conservative groups with deep ties to Republican lawmakers. Join host Zac Gibson and political reporter Ryan Deto as they dive deep into what “Project 2025” could mean for the Pittsburgh region.
