Keep Track
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.

Isn't there a procedure, a process, for these things to happen? How can he just do it?
Where are the guardrails, the checks and balances, where tf is anything and anyone in government?
Dictator on day one was a threat, not something everyone with responsibility was supposed to just say ok to.
As the head of the Executive Branch, he can so what he wants within the Executive.
Then he has toadies doing what he wants in the Legislative and Judicial branches.
He cannot. He has has to follow the legal structure set by the legislature. Now, if nobody stops him or say no 🤷
The Legislature is a separate but equal branch to the Executive, they have no say over what he does within the Executive.
I mean they do but it does require passing laws specifically outlining the thing and both houses are controlled by republicans.
It was half rhetorical and all anger at the other people not doing anything.
That would require a majority in opposition in the House and Senate and the majority there support him.
I know. But he's not playing that ball game anymore. Neither should people with morals.
I'm basically ranting, excuse me. And thank you for indulging me.
