When not overwhelming, information is power.
In that spirit to help the movement, we’ve assembled reliable trackers and databases following the Trump/Musk administrative coup.
(If you have an additional tracker to recommend, please let us know.)
WHAT IS TRUMP DOING?
What has Trump done (policies, appointments, and apportionments)?
OpenOMB tracks Apportionments — the legally binding plans issued by the White House Office of Management and Budget that set the pace at which federal agencies may spend appropriated funds.
Brookings Institute has this tracker of regulations — it’s more detailed of outcome but less up-to-date than others
Project 2025 Tracker monitors implementation of infamous Project 2025 and displays which items have been put into action by the Trump administration.
What is DOGE doing? (Who has been fired? How much money has DOGE “found”?)
NY Times has been trying to keep up with where Trump, Musk and DOGE Have Cut Federal Workers So Far. This tends to be updated less frequently but more detailed information.
DOGE has been lying through its teeth about the amount of money it has found. This DOGE tracker shows a more realistic assessment for how much money Musk’s DOGE team has actually found.
Who is in DOGE?
ProPublica has been trying to keep a running list of who is in Elon Musk’s DOGE (“the demolition crew”).
HOW ARE FOLKS FIGHTING BACK?
What’s the state of lawsuits?

Civil Rights Litigation Clearinghouse has a list of all litigation brought against the administration.
