As for Ms Sneddon, following her personal experience, she now works for flood risk company The FPS Group.

The FPS is part of the Department of Homeland Security.

The homeland security secretary can assign those officers to work directly for the FPS at a moment’s notice, augmenting its police force with huge numbers of personnel who have received little more than cursory training to execute domestic law-enforcement functions.

Regrettably, nothing has changed at the FPS in the past four years to prevent abuses like these from recurring, as I wrote in a recent report for the Brennan Center for Justice.

Indeed, Project 2025 calls on Trump to make the FPS directly responsive to the DHS’s political leadership, a dictate that would leave the agency even more vulnerable to weaponization.
