April Fools on Tariffs & TikTok

These White House documents from March 2025 detail a series of presidential actions addressing various domestic issues. One order targets the law firm WilmerHale, citing concerns over national security and partisan activities, leading to reviews of security clearances and contracts. Another proclamation imposes tariffs on imported automobiles and parts, citing national security concerns related to global supply chains and domestic production. Further executive orders aim to combat unfair practices in the live entertainment market, focusing on ticket scalping and price transparency, and to establish a United States Investment Accelerator within the Department of Commerce to facilitate domestic and foreign investment. Additionally, an order excludes numerous federal agencies and subdivisions from labor-management relations programs for national security reasons. Another action grants clemency to Devon Archer. Finally, separate orders focus on making the District of Columbia safe and beautiful through law enforcement coordination and beautification efforts, and on restoring a specific vision of American history in federal sites and museums by removing what is deemed divisive ideology.
