Donald Trump may be in his second term, but that doesn’t mean he’s making up policy on the fly. In fact, if you’ve been keeping tabs on Project 2025—a comprehensive conservative blueprint for reshaping the federal government—you already know what’s coming next.
Earlier this week, Trump took to Truth Social with what looked like a spontaneous announcement: he’s “seriously considering” bringing Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac public. He said meetings were lined up with top financial officials, including Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Federal Housing Finance Agency Director William Pulte.
But if that sounded familiar, it’s because it is. Project 2025—the very agenda his administration is actively working through—lists this exact move: “Wind down and privatize Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.” It’s not a brainstorm; it’s a box getting checked.
What’s wild is that Trump posted about it like it was fresh thinking. The truth? This move is part of a larger agenda that includes major shakeups across nearly every federal agency—from education to labor to the environment.
The Project 2025 tracker outlines over 313 policy goals, and while all are officially not completed yet, Trump’s administration is clearly using it as a roadmap. These aren’t whispers behind closed doors—they’re published for anyone to see. Trump’s latest post is just another example of him unveiling “news” that’s been written out for months.
And here’s a preview of what else is on that list:
-
Slashing Medicaid expansion incentives and imposing time limits
-
Imposing strict work requirements on SNAP and TANF
-
Eliminating diversity-focused housing programs
-
Rolling back abortion access and reproductive rights protections
-
Replacing public education oversight with parent-empowered legislation
-
Repealing environmental regulations and shrinking federal protections
-
Restructuring the Department of Homeland Security
-
Eliminating the Federal Reserve or altering its role completely
-
Scaling back labor protections, including overtime laws
And more to come.
So when Trump makes these headline-grabbing moves, don’t act surprised—because none of this is accidental. It’s all part of the plan, and he’s executing it step by step like a mission checklist.
Don’t be surprised—be prepared.
