Trump Invokes the Alien Enemies Act of 1798
Hundreds of immigrants have been deported around the country after President Trump invoked the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 for the first time since World War II.

Trump Defunds Department of Education
On Thursday, March 20, President Trump, accompanied by a group of schoolchildren seated at prop desks, signed an executive order effectively crippling the Department of Education. The Trump administration has always intended to reduce learning opportunities for the working class by privatizing education and making it available only to those who can pay for it.
