On the Desk watchlist

No curated actions for this administration yet. The presidencies shelf is complete; the actions archive is still a seed. Browse Desk actions.

Term dates follow standard presidential succession chronology. Non-consecutive terms (Cleveland, Trump) appear as separate ordinals. Birthday and vice-president fields merge the unitedstates executive catalog (Bioguide when present). Library links come from NARA; Federal Register counts cover modern presidential documents only. Signed and vetoed credits come from The Floor watchlist by outcome date. Desk actions are editorial, not a full Federal Register dump.
