The Receipts

On Day One, Trump issued an executive order dismantling core civil rights protections

Legal analysis from the National Employment Law Project show that Trump’s Executive Order revoked Lyndon Johnson-era anti-discrimination rules, weakening enforcement of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 across federal contracting and employment.


Trump signed an executive order aimed at suppressing voting and mail-in ballots

According to NPR and voting rights experts, another one of Trump’s Executive Orders is trying to restrict mail-in voting and impose barriers that disproportionately affect marginalized voters. This is a good breakdown of the impact.


Trump’s Department of Veterans Affairs banned abortion services for all veterans

The Center for Reproductive Rights reports that the Trump administration quietly eliminated abortion access within the VA healthcare system, regardless of rape, incest, or medical emergency.


Trump blocked refugees fleeing war – except white South Africans

Reporting by The Washington Post shows Trump halted refugee admissions broadly while making a specific exception for white Afrikaner applicants from South Africa.


Trump banned trans people from the military and revoked retirement benefits

According to Air Force Times and the National Center for Transgender Equality, trans service members were barred from serving and, in several cases, stripped of pensions and earned retirement benefits, simply because they are trans. Reporting compiled by Them shows that the Pentagon is looking through medical records to try to identify and eject trans people.


Trump signed an executive order banning trans athletes from women’s sports

Trump signed another Executive Order banning trans athletes from sports. As reported by the ACLU, the president of the NCAA even recently told Congress, there are “less than 10” trans athletes (and not all of them transgender women) of the more than 500,000 college athletes in the country.


Trump is attempting to end birthright citizenship

Legal analysis from the American Immigration Council and the American Civil Liberties Union confirms Trump is pursuing actions that directly challenge the 14th Amendment’s guarantee of birthright citizenship – which is guaranteed to all Americans.


Trump’s Pentagon purged women and Black leaders and erased 26,000 images

According to reporting by Associated Press, The Guardian, and NBC News, the Pentagon fired senior women and Black officials under the banner of “DEI” and ordered the removal of tens of thousands of images depicting women and people of color.


Trump routinely demeans and aggressively insults women in public 

We know about him saying “You can do anything. Grab ‘em by the pussy” we know about all his obsession and attacks on Rosie O’Donnell. But looking at 2025, video and reporting by CNN and regional outlets document Trump calling female reporters “stupid,” “nasty,” and “quiet piggy” during official press interactions.
