Trump back at the White House, a flocking of orders start today
DORAL, FL – January 20, 2025, marks the start of President-Elect Donald Trump second term in the White House following his victory in November Elections.
Trump will become the 47th President of the United States and the inauguration ceremony will take place at noon inside the Capitol, something that hadn’t happened in 40 years.
He is expected to sign more than 200 executive actions on Monday, which includes executive orders and other presidential directives related to a variety of topics, from the U.S.-Mexico border to energy development, federal Schedule F workforce rules, school gender policies and vaccine mandates, among other day-one promises made during his campaign.
“Within hours of taking office, I will sign dozens of executive orders — close to 100 to be exact — many of which I will be describing in my address tomorrow,” Trump said to a crowd of donors and allies at a pre-inauguration dinner Sunday.
Stephen Miller, Donald Trum’s top adviser, already exposed for the GOP senators the border security and immigration enforcement measures that are likely to go first in the list of orders.
“You’re going to see executive orders that are going to make [you] extremely happy, lots of them. … We have to set our country on the proper course,” Trump said Sunday at a rally at Capital One Arena. “By the time the sun sets tomorrow evening, the invasion of our borders will have come to a halt, and all the illegal border trespassers will in some form or another, be on their way back home.”
The most expected action is a declaration of a national emergency on the U.S.-Mexico border as part of his plan to cut down illegal immigration and other cross-border crimes.
Trump will probably also cut off funding for climate-related provisions of Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act, move to designate a series of drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations, direct his administration to reinstate his first-term Migrant Protection Protocol policy, and act to reinstate a series of his first-term immigration policy directives and actions that President Joe Biden rescinded on his first day in office in 2021.
“With the stroke of my pen I will revoke dozens of destructive and radical executive orders and actions of the Biden administration, and by this time tomorrow, they will all be null and void.” Trump said on Sunday.
