Rolling Back Trump

A to-do list for the next Democratic trifecta: every square is something Donald Trump or his administration signed, ordered, or put his name on since January 20, 2025. Some can be undone with a signature. Others will take an act of Congress, new rules, or years of rebuilding. Each square shows who it affects.

Ordered early review of ABC's licenses

Where it standsStopped by courts
  1. Apr 27, 2026Trump demanded Jimmy Kimmel's firing over a joke in which Kimmel told the first lady, "Mrs. Trump, you have a glow like an expectant widow." Trump wrote on Truth Social that Kimmel "should be immediately fired" by ABC and its parent Walt Disney Co. Melania Trump separately condemned the joke and called for ABC to take Kimmel off the air.

  2. Apr 28, 2026The FCC ordered ABC's eight owned stations to file license renewals early, years before they were otherwise due, the first such early review in more than 50 years, tied to a separate investigation into Disney's diversity, equity and inclusion practices; the FCC said the action was not based on Kimmel's speech.

  3. Jul 16, 2026ABC decided not to broadcast Trump's July 16 primetime address live, but livestreamed it on ABC News Live, which it said in its lawsuit it "ordinarily would not have done." During the address, Trump said, "NBC and ABC Fake News have both said that they would not cover this speech...This should mean a revocation of their licenses." Source ↗
  4. Aug 18, 2026ABC and Disney sued the FCC and Chairman Carr in federal court, writing that "the Administration has waged a retaliatory campaign against ABC for a single reason: it disapproves of what ABC broadcasts," and that they faced an "existential threat." Source ↗
  5. Oct 6, 2026At a two-hour hearing before U.S. District Judge Loren AliKhan, Disney's attorney Beth Wilkinson said, "Our concern is that we are chilled. We are making different editorial decisions. We are watching everything that we do because every time we do something... brings out the anger in the administration and the retaliation from the agency." Source ↗
  6. Oct 6, 2026 · LatestThe administration's lawyer, Dimitar Georgiev-Remmel, said Disney would keep its licenses through the administrative and judicial process regardless, and argued the case belonged in a federal appeals court, not the district court where ABC filed it. Source ↗
How to roll it backCongress can bar the FCC from timing license reviews around a broadcaster's coverage and require specific, non-speech-related grounds for early renewal review. A future FCC chair can close this proceeding and restore ABC's stations to their normal renewal schedule.

About

How we choose

Anything Trump or his administration has done since January 20, 2025 that a future administration or Congress could reverse, limit, or keep from happening again. It goes on the list when official records document it or a major news outlet reports it.

How it's updated

Every morning we check the Federal Register, court rulings in the cases we track, federal campaign-finance filings (FEC), SEC filings from federal contractors we follow, and major news. New orders are confirmed by the Federal Register, AP, or Reuters before they're added. Descriptions come from the documents themselves and independent reporting, not White House press materials.

Sources and corrections

Every square links to its source: official records first (Federal Register, court filings, federal contract, FEC and SEC records), then wire services and major news outlets. No advocacy groups, opinion pieces, or niche publications. Each square shows when it was last updated. Rulings in tracked cases are checked daily, and errors are corrected when found.

Like any website, this page has to be delivered to you. Our host, Cloudflare, handles that and processes standard request information, such as IP address and browser type, to deliver and protect the site. We see only overall totals, like the number of visits in a day. The site's fonts come from Google Fonts, which receives the same kind of request information. Links to sources, Congress, and social networks take you to those sites, which have their own policies.
