Dr. Marie L. Mallare-Jimenez hosts Professor Emeritus Daniel Phil Gonzales for a riveting breakdown of the DT 2.0 administration’s radical “Project 2025.” In this third, and last, episode of State of Affairs: Reality or Fiction, the pair critically analyzes how this sweeping policy agenda threatens civil liberties, targeting birthright citizenship, deploying mass deportation strategies, and weaponizing billionaire power through Elon Musk’s creation of DOGE. As DEI programs are dismantled and educational voices for Gaza are punished, the episode exposes the authoritarian overreach gripping the nation. Divided into three in-depth segments, this conversation invites listeners to reflect, resist, and rise.
