Keeping Track of the 2nd Trump administration!

One thing Donald Trump and the extreme right were very good at doing is burying the track record of his first presidency from 2017 to 2021.

Keep Track is dedicated to literally keeping track, day by day, of the policy decisions made by the new Trump Administration.

That is not to say we're interested in the crazy things he says or tweets, he clocked over 30,000 lies the last time he was in office, I don't see how it's possible to track all of that. This is about POLICY. Nominees, executive orders, signed laws, and so on.

Subject line format should be {{date}} {{event}} so: "01-20-2025 - Trump is sworn in."

The international date format of 2025-01-20 is also acceptable!

Links should be to verifiable news sources, not social media or blog sites. So no Xitter/Truth/Youtube/Substack/etc. etc.

"(a)  The term “child” or “children” means an individual or individuals under 19 years of age."

Someone better tell the military recruiters that...

I'm perplexed by that. Aren't 18 year olds considered adults in the US? 19 is such a strange choice.

18-20 is a weird age bracket where you can buy smokes, are eligible to vote and for military service, but can't buy alcohol.

Edit Forgot! You can buy an AR-15, but not a 6 shot revolver.

I think smoking age is 21 these days, but yeah, it's a strange choice.

I think they wanted to prevent people in highschool from transitioning.

Let me guess, circumcisions still okay?

Who’s out there wondering when they will take our healthcare away?

I am.

The order makes a false assertion of fact in its first paragraph. Then bases the entire order on that falsehood.

[–] HorreC@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

so they will also stop all the breast augmentations and will look into circumcisions right??

(e) prioritize investigations and take appropriate action to end child-abusive practices by so-called sanctuary States that facilitate stripping custody from parents who support the healthy development of their own children, including by considering the application of the Parental Kidnapping Prevention Act and recognized constitutional rights.

What avenues currently exist to target sanctuary states?
