Conservatives have done the United States a huge favor by explaining in detail what they’ll try to do if Donald Trump is reelected. Project 2025 , a “presidential transition project” of the Heritage Foundation, helpfully lays out how a group of former Trump officials would like to transform the country into a right-wing dystopia where the rich thrive and the rest of us die aspiring to be rich.

It was already a good deal, but now it's a great one. I fell in love with the OnePlus 12 for one reason and one reason only — it’s a beast of a gaming phone without the full flagship cost. Alright, maybe there are two reasons: because it doesn’t have the over-the-top aggressive styling we’ve come to expect from gaming phones, either.
