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.

That's certainly one of the more aggressive Marine Corps ads I've seen in a while.
From my understanding most of the military branches have been missing their recruitment targets for some time, to the point where it is likely to start impacting their operational capability at some point in the near future. If I remember correctly, the Air Force was the only branch that actually hit their targets. I first noticed an uptick in recruitment advertising about 2ish years ago. Wasn't too surprising given what we were learning (again) from the Ukraine War.
This seems more blatantly aimed at those seeking violence or views the use of violence romantically, but that does match the Marine Corps purpose and ethos. They are the hammer of the US international politics. They don't do subtle.
Growing up, my mom had a sweater she got from my dad (I think) that read "If it absolutely must be destroyed overnight, U.S. Marines", a play on the US postal service slogan from around the same time period.
I had recently seen a news piece that all the services had met their goals but it was a bit piece so it could be just for the month or something and they are still behind.
So they have. Even under President Trump that is good news.
