2017
Attorney General Jeff Sessions, a strong conservative who strongly believed in President Trump's agenda,[1] reformed the Justice Department, reorienting it in a strongly conservative direction and with conservative policies, in stark contrast with the Obama Administration.[2] Under Sessions, the DOJ changed its positions on numerous legal matters.[3]
Law enforcement was one of the areas that President Trump prioritized when making political appointments, as seen by the fact that by December 2017, he was ahead of the Obama Administration in filling DOJ positions despite being behind overall.[4] The Trump Administration also took action against violent crime.[5]
Legislation signed, 2017
- June 2, 2017—President Trump signed a bill into law to reduce the backlog of families of fallen police officers waiting to receive benefits due to their status.[6]
Executive actions, 2017

Attorney General Sessions had made numerous policy changes promoting conservative governance in the DOJ by the six-month mark in Trump's presidency.[7] Despite the fears of liberals, the DOJ strongly enforced hate crime laws,[8] and unlike the Obama Administration, the Trump DOJ began enforcing antitrust law to ensure a free market rather than adding regulations and power to the administrative state.[9]
- February 2017—Attorney General Sessions rescinded an Obama Administration memo that directed the Bureau of Prisons to begin phasing out private prisons.[10]
- February 9, 2017—President Trump signed three executive orders pertaining to law enforcement. The first cracked down and strengthens the law against international crime organizations, the second deals with anti-law enforcement crimes, and third with finding a strategy for reducing crime in general, "including, in particular, illegal immigration, drug trafficking, and violent crime."[11] Attorney General Sessions proceeded to implement the orders.[12]
- March 10, 2017—Attorney General Sessions asked the 46 remaining U.S. attorneys appointed by Obama, arguably the most left-wing president in U.S. history, to resign.[13][14] One of those U.S. attorneys was the failed Zachary Fardon, who was lax in his prosecution of gun crimes (Sessions directed the Justice Department to increase prosecutions on gun-law violations and to reinforce harsh sentences for such).[15] When one of those attorneys, Preet Bharara, refused to resign (likely for political gain), he was fired.[16] Later, in May 2017, more Obama holdovers left the Justice Department.[17]
- April 3, 2017—Attorney General Sessions ordered the Department of Justice to review Obama's agreements with local police departments. Sessions made this order to give back local control to police departments.[18]
- April 13, 2017—The Justice Department prosecuted two doctors and one other for practicing female genital mutilation – the first such prosecutions under a federal law passed by Congress in 1996 prohibiting the practice.[19]
- May 9, 2017—Although he previously stated he was not planning on asking him to resign,[20] President Trump, at the recommendation of Attorney General Jeff Sessions and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, fired Obama-appointed FBI director James Comey for being unfit to serve in the position.[21] Democrats and liberals were dismayed at the decision,[22] but it showed that Trump was serious about shaking up D.C. and "draining the swamp."[23]
- May 11, 2017—Attorney General Sessions ended Obama and Eric Holder's policy of pursuing light sentences for criminals when he ordered federal prosecutors to pursue "the most serious and readily provable offense" committed by those under prosecution.[24]
- June 7, 2017—Attorney General Sessions ended a policy begun by Eric Holder where the Justice Department would reach settlements with companies that required them to pay third-party groups, many of which were left-wing organizations.[25] It was reported in August 2017 that the DOJ was investigating Holder's policy.[26]
- June 20, 2017—Attorney General Sessions launched the National Public Safety Partnership as part of a wider DOJ effort at countering violent crime.[27]
- June 30, 2017—The Trump Administration sent 20 ATF agents to Chicago to help the city fight gun violence.[28] The local US Attorney said the same day that his office had already prosecuted more Chicago gun cases in 2017 than it had done throughout the entire year 2016.[29]
- July 13, 2017—The DOJ announced it had charged 412 people for health care fraud schemes that had defrauded taxpayers of $1.3 billion, something Attorney General Sessions described as "the largest health care fraud takedown operation in American history."[30]
- July 19, 2017—Attorney General Sessions reversed Eric Holder's limitation of asset forfeiture, expanding the ability for state and local law enforcement departments to seize property using federal law, rather than just state or local law. Several safeguards were implemented along with this policy.[31]
- July 2017—It was reported that federal gun crime prosecutions by the DOJ in the preceding three months increased 23% over the same period in 2016, showing the Justice Department was taking a tough stance on gun crimes.[32]
- August 2, 2017—The DOJ launched opioid fraud and abuse unit to fight opioid prescription abuses and the opioid crisis.[33]
- August 4, 2017—Attorney General Sessions and the DOJ cracked down on illegal leaks of classified information from within the government, taking actions such as actively pursuing three times more investigations in the first six months of the Trump Administration than had been open at the end of the Obama Administration and by creating a counterintelligence unit in the FBI for these investigations.[34] Despite this, by the end of 2017, few leakers had been caught.[35]
- August 28, 2017—President Trump signed an executive order reversing Obama-era limitations on police departments' ability to buy surplus military equipment and re-establishing a program ended by the Obama Administration to help the police departments acquire the equipment.[36]
- September 15, 2017—The DOJ changed a program run by its Office of Community Oriented Policing Services, turning it from one from reforming police departments and dealing with use of force in the departments to one that would help departments fight violent crime.[37]
- September 2017—The DOJ announced it had charged 3,800 suspected gang members from the United States, El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras, something which showed the DOJ's effort in combating criminal activity and gangs like MS-13 and 18th Street.[38]
- October 5, 2017—The DOJ announced several initiatives for reducing violent crime, including recommitting to Project Safe Neighborhoods, a program intended to combat violent crime, and fast-tracking the process of tracing guns used in shootings back to the people who originally purchased them.[39]
- October 23, 2017—Attorney General Sessions designated MS-13 as a priority for the DOJ's Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Forces program, allowing the program to use a wide variety of laws to prosecute MS-13 members.[40]
- November 17, 2017—Attorney General Sessions ended the Obama-era practice of issuing "guidance memos", which are used to enact new regulations and even to effectively change existing federal laws.[41]
- December 21, 2017—Attorney General Sessions rescinded 25 guidance documents that dated back as far as 1975 for being "unnecessary, inconsistent with existing law, or otherwise improper."[42]
Pardons, 2017
- August 25, 2017—President Trump pardoned ex-Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio, noting his over 50 years of "exemplary" public service and fighting illegal immigration in the White House statement of the pardon.[43]
Appointments, 2017
- President Trump appointed Noel Francisco, a strong conservative, as the U.S. Solicitor General, and the U.S. Senate confirmed him on September 19, 2017.[44]
Other achievements, 2017
While the following achievements were not official United States government policy actions by the Trump Administration, they were closely related to the Trump Administration and its policies:
- President Trump expressed strong support for the police and strong opposition to violence directed at police.[45] Some law enforcement leaders described Trump as the biggest supporter of police in 2017 and argued that his support played a role in the reduction in anti-police violence that year.[46]
- At a campaign-style rally held in Arizona on August 22, 2017, President Trump criticized the Antifa for its violence.[47]
Setbacks, 2017
The following setbacks to the MAGA agenda were often caused by Congress or officials in the Trump Administration, rather than President Trump himself. Some of them can also be considered partial achievements.
- The Trump DOJ was overly reluctant to pursue criminal charges against certain individuals. For example, in late 2017 and early 2018, Trump Administration ended the Obama Administration IRS scandal by settling with the affected organizations and apologizing,[48] but it still declined to investigate or prosecute IRS official Lois Lerner for her key role in the scandal.[49]
- The Trump Administration did not crack down on pornography as Trump had promised during his 2016 campaign.[50]
2018
Attorney General Sessions continued promoting conservative law-and-order policies as he did the previous year.[51] The Trump DOJ reversed the Obama DOJ position on four Supreme Court cases decided in 2018, and the Trump DOJ won all four of them.[52] The Trump Administration continued reversing the Obama Administration's antitrust policy, and it promoted competition through U.S. antitrust law regarding intellectual property.[53] Under the Trump Administration DOJ, the number of federal death penalty cases increased compared to the Obama Administration.[54] Immigration and Customs Enforcement helped combat the opioid crisis by cracking down on illegal opioid importation,[55] and the Trump Administration successfully cracked down on MS-13.[56] Crime rates fell to record low levels as the Trump Administration ended a surge of crime under Barack Obama.[57]
Among other actions, the Trump Administration took numerous actions to combat human trafficking.[58]

- March 16, 2018—Attorney General Sessions, on the recommendation of the FBI's Office of Professional Responsibility, fired Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe for ethics violations less than two days before he was planning on retiring – the same date he would become eligible to claim a pension.[67]

- May 20–21, 2018—The DOJ and the FBI, upon pressure from President Trump, agreed to look into claims of FBI impropriety in its investigation of the Trump campaign's alleged ties to Russia.[69] Also on May 21, President Trump ordered his chief of staff, John F. Kelly, to make sure Congress would receive documents it requested from the FBI, DOJ, and other intelligence agencies.[70]
