There's a lot of convoluted history behind what led to Project 2025, and that's likely on purpose.

This is a place to collect information about that history into one place. Hopefully, this will also help increase awareness and discussion about everything that is truly behind this history.

Any odd or interesting information relating to the Heritage Foundation, and it’s members or affiliate groups is welcome here.

If you’ve got obscure information/articles written by or mentioning people like Paul Weyrich, Ed Feulner, or information about other associates and affiliate organizations, such as the Coors Brewing family , the Council for National Policy (CNP), State Policy Network, and countless other shady ties, please drop them here.

The mayor of Moscow and dissidents from the old Soviet system last week raised the flag of the Russian Republic on a beaux-arts house at 1800 Connecticut Ave. And everyone cheered.

The ceremony marked the establishment of Russia House, a for-profit corporation for cooperation. The go-between for Russian and U.S. businesses is said to be the first of its kind, although others from Eastern Europe may follow to learn and earn with U.S. entrepreneurs. Moscow's nonprofit International University will also have its headquarters in the grand old building.

The corporation is also privately funded. Officers of its board are Moscow Mayor Gavril Popov; Paul Craig Roberts of the Center for Strategic and International Studies, a former treasury assistant secretary; and Dean Booth, an Atlanta lawyer. Businessman Robert Krieble, who donated fax machines, computers and copiers to dissidents in the Soviet Union when "they were illegal," Lozansky said, is one of the financial supporters.

At the inauguration of Russia House, furnished only with a lectern and radio and television microphones for the ceremony, Paul Weyrich, head of a group called Free Congress, said, "When we first went to the Soviet Union we were considered foolish. But democracy is real. The change is real."

"Russia House is not financed by governments but by private people," Mayor Popov said. "Aid in the form of commercial goods and food should not be the main effort. Aid would be over soon, and all would be as before. We need a free-market economy -- but we don't have people who can run a free market," he said, speaking through a translator. "I told {Treasury} Secretary {Nicholas} Brady that many Americans will sign treaties with ministers -- who then will disappear. Trade should be with private individuals and businesses."
