THE FATBOY SHOW : President Trump's First 100 Days: Attacks on Human Rights, Cruelty and Chaos.
As President Donald Trump marks his first 100 days in office, Amnesty International highlights the human rights crisis fueled by President Trump's administration's authoritarian practices, discriminatory and racist policies, and dangerous rhetoric.
In Chaos & Cruelty: 10 Compounding Assaults on Human Rights, Amnesty International reviews President Trump's attacks on domestic and international human rights in his first 100 days in office. From suppressing dissent to demonizing and targeting immigrants, to retreating from multilateral bodies that protect human rights around the world, the Trump administration has been systematically eroding human rights protections, fostering a climate of fear and division, and undermining the rule of law.
"One hundred days into his second term, President Trump has led with cruelty and chaos, creating a human rights emergency that has affected millions of people by suppressing dissent, undermining the rule of law, and eroding norms and institutions essential to the protection of human rights," said Paul O'Brien, executive director of Amnesty International USA. "The Trump administration has fully embraced authoritarian tactics more commonly associated with repressive leaders to silence and punish those who disagree with him, while weaponizing the government against people and institutions in the United States and beyond to entrench his own power and further an anti-rights agenda."
