Trump Action Tracker

We are documenting the actions, statements, and plans of President Donald Trump and his administration that may pose a threat to American democracy, since the start of his second term in January 2025.

Each action is mapped to one or more of five broad domains of authoritarianism, helping to make sense of a deeply concerning political trajectory. Every entry includes a source link and date. You can filter the actions by domain, by date, or by free text search.

The full or filtered list of actions can be downloaded as a CSV file under a Creative Commons licence.

We provide visuals of all actions over time, and over time within domain, where you can hover over points for more info.

You can follow near-daily 3-minute video updates of the latest actions on YouTube, TikTok or subscribe to a podcast version here.

This is a free resource, provided and maintained by Professor Christina Pagel in the UK and a few brilliant volunteers. Read more about the team behind this website and how we allocate the domains in our about us page.
