What: Kevin Roberts, the man who helped lead the creation of Donald Trump’s Project 2025, is out with a new book, and it includes the usual GOP hits these days: opposing not *just* abortion but also birth control and IVF. (And Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance wrote the forward for the book.)

Why it matters: Roberts goes deep into criticizing people without children, saying that “having children should not be considered an ‘optional individual choice’ but ‘a social expectation.’” He goes on: “A culture of childlessness is, in the final analysis, a culture of despair. Getting married and having kids, on the other hand, gives you skin in the game for the future of your country. It forces you to grow up, give up childish things, and live in the real world.”
