The concept of a plan.

Literally says nothing about what they are actually going to do about any of it, just that they are gonna fix everything while they boast about how cheap gas was under Trump last time. All while immigrants working on farms stayed home today out of fear which will literally make food more expensive as crops sit unharvested.

Serious question, what work is being done on a farm in January? I realize that the South doesn't typically get cold, but they have planting and harvest seasons too. It was my understanding that these tend to be migrants, who travel to southern countries during this time.

Primarily planting in California in the main agricultural areas. There's stuff being grown that is frost resistant as well, but less than what'll crop up closer to March and beyond. With that said, yeah, the winter is down time for the workers who fill in like contractors for the major farming operations that don't have year round employment.

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.
