[KTB2025]

Straight Arrow News is reporting a new data leak: thousands of applications to the Heritage Foundation’s “Presidential Personnel Database.”

Lots of names and the reasons they dream of being MAGA functionaries. Fugate, the 22 year old gardener, is in there and writes in his application about loving Trump and Nixon and hating porn. This woman is there too: https://ktb2025.substack.com/p/the-spirit-of-86

2. Plus Tibor Nagy

Thanks for the bump! I can also add Tibor Nagy. He is a former diplomat/career State Department employee who helped write the chapter of Project 2025 on the State Department. He isn't listed at all in the report - but he boasted about his contribution in an op-ed he wrote.

3. Update - naming some of the the names...

Have sifted through the database...it includes...

- Thomas Fugate, the weird 22 year old with the arched eyebrow
- three January 6 rioters
- at least 7 state legislators (including 4 from Arizona)
- 18 (!) members of the Ben Franklin Fellowship, the semi-secret club of conservatives at the State Department
- the DOJ attorney who argues lots of Trump's cases and whose questionnaire answers talked about "transing" children
- alt-right influencer Ella Maulding who writes about the Great Replacement

All perfect fits for the Trump Administration.

Our latest post goes through these names and all the appalling things they wrote on their questionnaires:
