    Not sure how that’s supposed to fly with posse comitatus but there you go! Maybe immigration isn’t considered “domestic policy”? 🤔

      iirc he’s gonna ‘declare’ an ‘emergency’ in order to post active duty military there.

      “Domestic policy” isn’t the actual language it’s “execute the laws”

      Not that it matters, since there are many notable exceptions that the executive branch can, more or less, handwave in.

    I’d love to see his face when he finds out that a lot of the troops he’s sending down there are hispanic as well.

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.

Project 2025 tracker here!
