The current administration, including most if not all Republicans in Congress, have been rapidly changing the very foundations of our society. This is by design: Project 2025, the “playbook” of the Seven Mountains Mandate. The Seven Mountains Mandate is the primary goal of the Theocracy taking over our government – from local Boards of Education to the Executive Branch of our Federal Government. The mentally disturbed President seems to be helping in a big way, as they offer him unbounded power to pursue his dream while crusading theirs.
What is the ‘Seven Mountains Mandate’ and how is it linked to political extremism in the US?
The Seven Mountain Mandate calls on Christians to gain influence, or “take dominion,” over seven key areas of culture: religion, family, education, government, media, business and the arts.
…
‘Dominion of Christians’
The Seven Mountains concept was originally proposed in 1975 by evangelical leader Bill Bright, the founder of Campus Crusade for Christ. Now known as “Cru,” the Campus Crusade for Christ was founded as a global ministry in 1951 to promote Christian evangelism, especially on college campuses.
C. Peter Wagner, a former seminary professor who helped organize and name the New Apostolic Reformation, is often regarded as the theological architect of the group. He developed it into a call for dominion. In his 2008 book “Dominion! How Kingdom Action Can Change the World,” he urged Christians to take authoritative control of cultural institutions.
For Wagner, “dominion theology” – the idea that Christians should have control over all aspects of society – was a call to spiritual warfare, so that God’s kingdom would be “manifested here on earth as it is in heaven.”
…
NAR prophet Cindy Jacobs has repeatedly emphasized the need for “spiritual warfare” in schools to combat what she characterizes as “demonic ideologies” such as sex education, LGBTQ+ inclusion or discussions of systemic racism.
They already control a large piece of our government. Media, for the most part, is little more than disinformation and reinforcing lies from Donald Trump and his cabinet. He has big business owners and leaders at his feet, with more falling consistently. He stuck his name in front of the John F. Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts. They don’t have control of the Arts yet, but are trying.
We have already seen how the Theocracy is taking over behind the scenes, from the Supreme Court Opus Dei Affiliated Justices to the Council for National Policy (CNP), the Federalist Society, CIC, Heritage Foundation, Dominionism, and even the Knights of Malta. The Knights of Malta, aka Order of Malta, Sovereign Military Order of Malta, or SMOM, descended from the Christian Crusaders. Current members include Betsy DeVos (former head of the Dept of Education in Trump’s first term), Eric Prince, her brother and leader of a mercenary army (formerly Blackwater), and many others including William Casey, Leonard Leo, Phyllis Schlafly, and Cardinal Raymond Burke.
Hitler Youth members march to Nürnberg, Germany c. 1933–1938
Education, as one of the Seven Mountains in their mandate, is crucial to keeping in control. The youth of today are the voters (and storm troopers) of tomorrow. Remember hearing about the Hitler Youth?
From Britannica:
Hitler Youth, organization set up by Adolf Hitler in 1933 for educating and training male youth in Nazi principles. Under the leadership of Baldur von Schirach, head of all German youth programs, the Hitler Youth included by 1935 almost 60 percent of German boys. On July 1, 1936, it became a state agency that all young “Aryan” Germans were expected to join.
From an interview of Author and scholar Matthew Boedy, author of “The Seven Mountains Mandate: Exposing the Dangerous Plan to Christianize America and Destroy Democracy”
Among Mountain of Education strategies, movement supporters turn to the use of vouchers to take public money and use it to attend private schools. Many also work to populate their local school board with those who support such aims.
…
With the Mountain of Religion, the belief is either that certain denominations have been overtaken by Satan “or they’re not preaching the real gospel or getting good discipleship,” Boedy said. “What the Seven Mountains Mandate has in mind is they want to push the church to purify itself and get better discipleship. That may sound good, but they also suggest you should leave the churches that are never going to be good enough. … It’s a movement to take the battle to Satan. They are taking the spiritual battle fight to the enemy.”
“They want very much to Christianize the public school system,” he said, including placing the Ten Commandments in classrooms, banning some books and implementing President Donald Trump’s 1776 Commission “to bring Christianity as the consensus to public schools,” as Boedy put it. “You can see they want to bring back a very specific Christianized version of American history so they can change what we’re taught in the future.”
“That’s very important for the Mountain of Education,” he said. “Once you start educating people differently in grades K-12, that affects their lives from here on out.”
Lock-stepping religion is another way they are destroying public education, through moves like many states to publicly display the Ten Commandments in all public schools. Separation of Church and State is becoming a very fuzzy line.
Map Shows States Pushing to Mandate Ten Commandments in Schools
Republican-led legislatures across the country have advanced measures requiring public schools to display the Ten Commandments, with Texas the largest state to attempt such a mandate. Critics argue the measure violates the constitutional separation of church and state and restricts the free exercise of religion.
…
Further south in Louisiana, lawmakers passed House Bill 71, which took effect in January, making the state the first to require a display of the Ten Commandments in public school classrooms. But in June, the Fifth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals unanimously affirmed a lower court's ruling that the law is unconstitutional.
At least a dozen other states have considered similar proposals this year, including: Alabama, Georgia, Missouri, Montana, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Mississippi, South Dakota, Indiana, West Virginia and South Carolina. Other states, like Idaho and Kentucky, have introduced Bible reading and text about "God We Trust" but not the Ten Commandments as a specific requirement.
Although court challenges have blocked most of these bills, it looks like the Supreme Court will eventually have to hear these cases, and the Opus Dei affiliated Justices will surely side with the state legislators. Yet another giant nail (or is it three?) in the DoE’s mission to educate the public. The DoE (Dept of Education) continues to destroy public education, in favor of more homeschooling and private (religious) education.
Here we hear from a disciple of destruction of public education, taking direction from the Seven Mountains Mandate, Nancy Huff:
Taking the Mountain of Education
… when I received an invitation to attend a weekend seminar by C. Peter Wagner on “How to Spiritually Map Your Profession,” I was excited. My first assignment was to read the history of the educational system of America and look for historical events where significant turns occurred that changed education from Christian to Humanism. I read with new eyes and with a fierce determination to develop a prayer strategy for my profession: education. That was the beginning of the book I just published: Taking the Mountain of Education: A Strategic Prayer Guide for American Education.
In my research, I found, that throughout history there have been those who held great [disdain] for the powerful Christian concepts taught in our schools. Because of their humanistic belief that man was god, they embarked on a mission to replace Christian education with humanistic teaching. Most of the changes they implemented were imposed on our schools through our legal system. Sad to say, it appears that the humanists have succeeded and today we have a failed educational system.
…
How do we as believers address those root causes and redeem our educational system? We know we have authority over the spiritual darkness that has encompassed the Mountain of Education, so why do we not see more results? Perhaps it is because we have not had a comprehensive prayer strategy to deal with the spiritual forces that influence the entire Mountain of Education.

Trump’s next plan for the US education system: Lots and lots of rules
…
Trump signed a dizzying number of education-related executive orders — spanning from diversity initiatives to college oversight — launched a barrage of civil rights investigations into schools, froze billions in federal research cash and started his long-promised dismantling of the Education Department.
They don’t have much time if they want to make Trump’s “vision” of complete destruction of the DoE come to pass. Bob Eitel, president of the Defense of Freedom Institute says 2025 was the year of enforcement through investigation, and 2026 will be the year of rulemaking.
… Education Secretary Linda McMahon has halved the agency’s workforce. And the GOP’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act directed officials to finalize rules on a number of student loan policies on tight deadlines next year.
Ted Mitchell, who served as Education undersecretary under the Obama administration says that regulatory calendars can become burdened to the point of ceasing functionality. He believes the logjam at the DoE could make the mid-terms’ results critical to our ability to stay its execution.
… The Trump administration froze more than $400 million in federal research grants and contracts to Columbia University, $175 million to the University of Pennsylvania, $510 million to Brown University, $1 billion to Cornell University, $760 million to Northwestern University, more than $2 billion to Harvard University and $584 million to UCLA.
The Trump Administration Plot to Destroy Public Education
Officials claim that dismantling the Department of Education will improve efficiency. It isn’t true.
Let me review some history. The cornerstones of federal support for American education are the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) and Higher Education Act (HEA), which were first passed as part of President Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society, along with the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), first enacted under President Ford.
…
So Congress wrote and President Carter signed the bipartisan bill to create the Department of Education. In Carter’s words, it was to establish “a direct, unobstructed relationship between those who administer aid-to-education programs and those who actually provide education in our country.”
The Trump administration’s plan is to re-disorganize education policy: to take several core functions of Education and spread them throughout the Departments of Labor, State, Interior, and Health and Human Services without any congressional consultation or oversight. Secretary McMahon claims this is primarily to “[cut] through layers of red tape in Washington.”
...
Project 2025 calls for not only dismantling the Department of Education, but eliminating Head Start, ending Title I grants to low-income students, weakening civil rights protections, shifting public funds to private schools, and minimizing funding for students with disabilities. Each of these positions would be devastating by themselves. But together, they would all but destroy public education in this country. That is their ultimate goal.
Project 2025 is the manifesto President Trump has embraced as his guide to governing.
An obvious, clear link to the Seven Mountains Mandate. We continue to see massive disruptions to public school funding.
In Trump’s First Year, at Least $12 Billion in School Funding Disruptions
Education Week has spent the last year building a running—and increasingly sprawling—tabulation of the individual grant cancellations and broader funding disruptions affecting education as they’ve happened. During the first year of Trump’s second term, Education Week found that the federal government bypassed Congress and disrupted more than $12 billion for K-12 education that lawmakers had already allocated, much of it before Trump took office.
…
Lindsey Burke, a Trump-appointed deputy chief of staff for policy and programs at the Education Department, confirmed $2 billion of grant cuts during a Jan. 14 online event held by Chalkbeat.
…
Before joining the department, Burke wrote the education section of the conservative presidential policy agenda Project 2025, which laid out a blueprint for many of the policy agenda items Trump has pursued since taking office last January.
Their cuts are often reasoned as a fight against “illegal DEI” and “gender ideology”, often without definition of the terms.
During the first year of his second term, President Trump signed executive orders seeking to abolish the U.S. Department of Education; curtail federal spending aligned with former President Joe Biden’s priorities; and stamp out initiatives in schools and beyond that promote diversity, equity, and inclusion. His administration has often used those orders as a rationale for reviewing existing spending and cutting off grants.
This has led to a severe loss of education jobs, financial support on tuition, and funding for planned school upgrades already in the works.
Part of the plan to destroy the Dept of Education is through offloading its programs to other agencies, rendering the DoE empty and easily shut down.
Ed Department Pushing Ahead With Plan To Offload Special Education
Secretary of Education Linda McMahon told a group of disability advocates she met with last month that she’s committed to proceeding with plans to move special education oversight to another federal agency.
“The secretary was cordial but very clear that she intends to move all of the department offices to other agencies and close the department. She indicated that it had not been determined whether the Office of Special Education Programs would be moved to the Department of Labor or the Department of Health and Human Services,” said Stephanie Smith Lee, co-director of policy and advocacy at the National Down Syndrome Congress, who served as director of the Education Department’s Office of Special Education Programs under President George W. Bush
…
Earlier this week, the Administration for Community Living at HHS announced that it has hired Diana Díaz-Harrison, who had been serving as deputy assistant secretary of the Education Department’s Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services, or OSERS, as well as Rebecca Hines, who had been an associate professor of special education at the University of Central Florida. Rebecca Hines’ sister Cheryl Hines is married to HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
It appears HHS will be overseeing the programs for students with disabilities. Judging by their long game, the complete dismantling of DoE will be done by distributing those programs to four other agencies, including HHS. Looks like RFK, Jr will surely succeed in completely screwing these programs the same way he has been making Americans unhealthier again!
Health Dept. Freezes $10 Billion in Funding to 5 Democratic States
The funding pause could jeopardize child care and other programs that serve hundreds of thousands of households in California, Colorado, Illinois, Minnesota and New York.
The Trump administration on Tuesday [1/6/26] froze $10 billion in funding for child care subsidies, social services and cash support for low-income families in five states controlled by Democrats, claiming without evidence widespread fraud throughout those states after a major welfare fraud scheme in one of them.
Minnesota, New York, California, Illinois and Colorado will be cut off from around $7.3 billion in funding for the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program, which provides cash assistance to households with children, the Department of Health and Human Services announced. The five states will also lose access to nearly $2.4 billion for the Child Care and Development Fund, which supports child care for working parents, and around $870 million for social services grants that mostly benefit children at risk.
The funding pause could jeopardize programs that serve hundreds of thousands of low-income households in the five states.
Of course, governors in all of these states are fighting back. Resistance and opposition through the courts are fighting back on virtually all of the administration’s funding attacks and the lies used to support them. They have had success in many instances, but the constant barrage of legally questionable funding cuts and attempts to completely kill the DoE continue.
People who want to destroy public schools are inside the Education Department
If the Education Department destroys public schools, it could result in an increase of religious and charter schools boosted by taxpayer dollars.
To carry out her vision, McMahon has brought on at least 20 political appointees from ultraconservative think tanks and advocacy groups eager to de-emphasize public schools, which have educated students for roughly 200 years.
Among them is top adviser Lindsey Burke, a longtime policy director at The Heritage Foundation and the lead author of the education section in Project 2025’s controversial agenda for the Trump administration.
In analyzing dozens of hours of audio and video footage of public and private speaking events for McMahon’s appointees, as well as their writings, ProPublica found that a recurring theme is the desire to enable more families to leave public schools.
Education — the acquiring of the knowledge needed to not only live well, is also crucial to understanding how things work. From lawnmowers to politics, knowledge is key in making the right decision needed to fix a problem. Those less educated tend to be easy targets of propaganda, more easily swayed by hate, and more likely to fervently vote with their feelings instead of their knowledge, if they even vote.
That is why education has a big target on its back. That is why they use obedience to religion as a tool to sway minds. That is why they want people less educated, so they will accept without complaint their place as poverty-stricken servants to their corporate needs.
We need to keep them from reaching the summit of the Education Mountain. We know how to do this through the courts, demonstrations, letters to congress, and mostly:
SOLIDARITY!!
