LPSF wiki on pro/anti-liberty policies of Trump's second term

Hi all, the mailing list / forum allows you to make wiki (i.e., collaborative) posts.

I’m sure that a lot of you are vexxed about some of the more authoritarian policies taken by the Trump admin, especially since he was supported by many LP members, leadership, and affiliates.

Therefore, I have created a list of anti/pro-liberty policies by Trump as a reference. It’s just a template and not even remotely complete. If you want to contribute, please keep each list item short, briefly listing the policy, a reference, and the reason it’s un-libertarian, or other essential info. You can find instruction for editing the post here.

Make edits by logging in to the forum. I haven’t tried this before, so if you have trouble with it, please send me a DM or email so I have a chance to address any issues. Thanks!
