I am hearing a lot of things happening from Trump’s actions after his inauguration. I am not doubting these things are happening mostly, but there’s always exaggeration, even by the good guys.

And trying to keep up with it is getting confusing.

Now I can’t think of anything but the FAA RIF the day before two airplane crashes.

Can we get a list. Hopefully starting with a TLDR sentence?

That’s good, but concentrated on “that might be illegal”\*. I’m looking more for things that have or potentially have consequences for people I might be interacting with.

I am especially interested in Medicaid and Medicare, because the company I work for does the bulk of Medicaid/Medicare data processing for a number of states. And I haven’t heard anyone say anything about it at work.

\* Which his acolytes probably think he has every right to do, so that won’t bother them.

Have you tried the Official Presidential Actions page, which is updated all the time?

Elon just got into those systems today. If he is true to form, the chaos should start soon. Sorry.
