A truly wonderful idea! Centralized would be a great help in tracking what’s going on now and ultimately on repairing and healing our country.

Can I like this a thousand times?? This is a terrific idea! We need to spread the word and get this done!

This idea is timely, now that we have 100+ "daze" of evidence to work with. I wonder how AI might be harnessed to corral the details by topic/date/etc. Once we have the basics, we can advance to the updates and edits that will be required as in any wiki environment.

Sad but true commentary. I’m glad to see Mr Froomkin still at work. We need more journalists like him!

A trump library will be a Lie-brary filled with fiction and devoid of the true facts. Trump will fight to corrupt the national archives and replace truth with lies. I fully support creating an archive detailing trumps crimes against humanity.

I have had a similar thought a thousand times since 2019. This would be important. Let's do this. What are some first steps?

I would love to help with this. I have been trying to put something together for a while, but this is a project that would be better with many people working on it.

Brilliant idea. For a name, how about "Kremlin on the Potomac"

Love this idea! Personally, I would prefer not to include "Trump" in the name because I fear that too many people believe removing Trump (and Musk) from the government will solve the problems that led us here. The movement toward autocracy, oligarchy, and Christian Nationalism goes beyond Trump, and we will need to keep our focus on reform long after Trump is gone from the scene.

I understand what you're saying but I do not agree. I think we must have a place that shows specifically what this administration has done, and a less restrictive title could be confusing and steer folks away/not attract them. There could be links to Wikipedia pages, articles etc. on related topics in appropriate places.

It's a good idea.

Josh Marshall has been talking about this as well on TPM along the lines of a "shadow Cabinet" and a "DOJ-in-exile."

I was going to suggest that this was already well documented at www.project2025.org. But I'm seeing that URL redirect to sell some books. So I'd grab a copy of it from The Internet Archive, and include that in the wiki.
