We just got a glimpse of Steve Bannon's 'Make America Great Again' whiteboard

We got a glimpse of the lists of Chief Strategist Steve Bannon's policy priorities, written on a whiteboard on the wall of his White House office.

A tweet on Tuesday offered a glimpse into the policy priorities of President Donald Trump's chief strategist, Steve Bannon.

Shmuley Boteach, a prominent Orthodox rabbi, met with Bannon on Tuesday and posted a photo of the two in front of a whiteboard on the wall of Bannon's White House office.

The New Yorker's Ryan Lizza reported in March on the existence of the whiteboard, which he said Bannon had installed after removing much of the furniture in the office.

Lizza said Bannon had scrawled on the board every campaign promise Trump made. CNN reported last week that the whiteboard had four column headings: "Make," target="_blank" "America," "Great," and "Again."

Boteach's photo is the first photographic evidence of its existence.

By looking closely at the photo, it's possible to make out lists of pledges on Obamacare, tax reform, infrastructure, and immigration.

There are checkmarks next to several immigration priorities, some of which have not been achieved, such as "suspend the Syrian refugee program," and others that have been or are coming to fruition, including "end 'catch and release,'" "hire 5,000 more border patrol agents," "triple the number of Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents," and "restore the secure communities program."

One of the most notable priorities reads, in part, "build the border wall and make Mexico ... "

The visible parts of the whiteboard don't contain any surprises — all are campaign promises or stated goals of the Trump administration.

Boteach's photos made the rounds on Twitter, with Comedy Central's "The Daily Show" tweeting an edited photo with fake to-do list items like "repeal and replace First Amendment" and "find new host body."
