In our final installment of fact checking the Democrat Convention because Kyle Clark won’t, we address U.S. Rep. Jason Crow’s speech on Thursday night.
Crow borrowed Gov. Polis’s copy of the now debunked Project 2025 book authored by hundreds of associates of a conservative think tank, none of whom are named Donald Trump.
To refresh, CNN was calling out Democrats all week for falsely aligning Trump with the Heritage Foundation think tank’s wish list of policy ideas.
The DNC just spent THREE DAYS fearmongering about Donald Trump and Project 2025.

Also, their dire prediction of banning all abortion is not even suggested in the mammoth book.
This is insane.
The DNC is programming its viewers with ‘Project 2025,’ something that Trump has nothing to do with.
It’s the fourth day of the DNC and Representative Jason Crow is the next Democrat to falsely connect Trump to the project.
Crow even went as far to suggest that… pic.twitter.com/Fcb0ej1lBT

First, there’s the couch commando remark Crow flung at Kamala Trump.
PeakNation™ will recall that it was Joe Biden and Kamala Harris making decisions during the disastrous 17-day evacuation from Afghanistan in which a suicide bomber killed 13 U.S. service members.
From the Washington Post:
Harris’s role behind the scenes in one of the most consequential and controversial episodes of Biden’s presidency shows how she has sought to position herself as a vice president deeply involved in key moments — even agreeing with an interviewer that she was the “last person in the room” with Biden as he cemented his plans to pull out the troops and evacuate allies.
Crow’s three-minute speech was a rant of malicious fortune-telling, putting words into Trump’s mouth that were never spoken, nor written by the man.
AP straightens out DNC lie #2. COLORADO REP. JASON CROW: “Donald Trump’s Project 2025 would abandon our troops, abandon our veterans, our allies and our principles.” Per AP, Project 2025 itself says it is not linked to any Candidate and Trump disavows connection.

It was truly disheartening to see Crow’s misinformation rant against Trump, especially since Crow is tasked with leading Democrats on the so-called bipartisan task force to investigate the assassination attempt on the former president.
Crow’s heart is clearly not meant for that task.
The only truth Crow spoke was about his own unblemished service in the military — which is more than we can say about Tim Walz’s record.
Crow is understandably very excited to back Kamala Harris.
PeakNation™ will also recall Crow was one of the active players who pushed Biden out as the party’s elected nominee, angering the president during a phone call where Biden took a nasty swipe at Crow’s military service.
“Tell me something you’ve never done with your Bronze Star like my son,” Biden said.
Voters should take note that Democrats’ only campaign strategy to take on Trump is to fear monger on dark imaginings, because The Donald’s record on the economy and border security is too strong for them to condemn.
