1. Immigration and Enforcement

1.1 Deportation of US Citizens

Multiple reports document U.S. citizens, primarily children, being deported in recent immigration operations. A federal judge highlighted a case where a 2-year-old U.S. citizen “appears to have been deported with no meaningful process” [1][2]. The child was “apparently deported to Honduras” [3]. The ACLU reports three U.S. citizen children were “held incommunicado” prior to deportation [4]. Additional cases include U.S. citizen children with cancer [5] and a Tampa woman separated from her one-year-old child and U.S. citizen husband after being deported to Cuba [6].

Approximately 100 days into his second term, President Trump faces declining approval ratings below those of Biden, Obama, and Bush at comparable periods [1]. CNN documented 53 instances where Trump claimed he would end the Ukraine war within 24 hours, contradicting his recent claim these statements were “in jest” [2]. The president expressed reservations about whether America should be ruled “100 percent” by laws rather than men [3] and criticized Fox News for reporting his declining economic approval ratings [4].

1.1 Executive Actions

The Trump administration has issued an executive order eliminating disparate-impact theory, which advocates describe as restoring the 1964 Civil Rights Act to its original meaning and promoting meritocracy [1] [2]. This represents one of the administration’s most significant policy shifts, fundamentally changing federal civil rights enforcement.

The Department of Transportation initially invited resignations but now scrambles to retain essential personnel [2]. The FDA is suspending its quality-control program for food testing due to staff cuts [3], while scientific communities race to preserve decades of data from potential deletion [4]. The Department of Justice has undergone dramatic reorganization with Trump “upending” the Civil Rights Division, causing what has been characterized as a “bloodbath” in senior ranks [5].
