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.

Trump Arch

Where it standsStopped by courts
  1. Sep 24, 2026Trump said the arch will double as a military complex able to launch drones and station snipers. A Trump-appointed federal preservation council ended required consultations on harm to 42 nearby historic sites, and Rep. Don Beyer says excavation has begun. Source ↗
  2. Oct 9, 2026The Arlington County Board sued the National Park Service and the Interior Department in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, becoming the first government body to challenge the arch in court. The suit argues the Park Service's review was rushed and asks that construction be halted so a full environmental review can be done. Source ↗
  3. Oct 9, 2026Board Chair Matt de Ferranti said the county sued because "our community has the most to lose" from the project. White House spokesman Davis Ingle called it a "meritless and dilatory lawsuit," saying the administration has been "fastidiously compliant with all procedural and legal requirements." Source ↗
  4. Oct 22, 2026Veterans and a retired architectural historian suing over the arch asked Judge Chutkan to block construction in Memorial Circle before the Park Service's planned November 5 start, saying the government has "no intention of awaiting this court's decision on the cross-motions for summary judgment."

  5. Oct 31, 2026The District of Columbia and Virginia sued to halt the arch, saying it is illegal because Congress has not authorized it and that it would run afoul of the Height Act, which caps building heights at 130 feet in D.C. Source ↗
  6. Oct 31, 2026D.C. Attorney General Brian Schwalb warned of "serious, immediate and irreparable harm to the District and its residents." Virginia Attorney General Jay Jones called it "Trump's illegal vanity project." The Interior Department and the White House did not immediately respond. Source ↗
  7. Nov 5, 2026The National Capital Planning Commission voted 8-4 to approve plans for the arch, giving the final go-ahead for the monument after almost nine hours of public comment. Source ↗
  8. Nov 5, 2026Shortly after, Judge Tanya Chutkan issued a temporary restraining order barring any "construction-related activity" at the site for 14 days, siding for now with the Vietnam veterans, Virginia and the District of Columbia, who sued to stop the project. Source ↗
  9. Nov 10, 2026Nine members of the Kennedy family, all children or grandchildren of Robert F. Kennedy or Sen. Ted Kennedy, asked a federal judge in Washington to let them join an existing lawsuit to stop the arch. Source ↗
  10. Nov 10, 2026 · LatestThe Kennedy family members say the arch would block the view of the Kennedy gravesites and JFK Eternal Flame at Arlington National Cemetery from Arlington Memorial Bridge and cast a permanent shadow over graves there, including the Kennedys'. Source ↗
How to roll it backConstruction can still be stopped before it is finished. Congress can bar monuments to sitting presidents on federal land.

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.

Independent project, not affiliated with any party or campaign.

What others see

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.
