What Trump might do on his first day in the White House.

Donald Trump vowed to “spin heads” on his first day back in office on Monday.

Reports suggest that the 47th US president may announce up to 200 executive orders within hours of being sworn in.

He previewed some of the yet-to-be-signed directives, which he said would target issues such as illegal immigration, climate laws, immigration policies, classified documents and more.

It is common for presidents to sign various executive orders upon entering office. Although such orders carry the weight of law, they can be overturned by subsequent presidents or courts.

But the scale of Trump’s plans could be unprecedented, with legal challenges expected.

Here’s what you need to know.

displacement

From day one, Trump promised to start “the largest kidnapping program in American history.”

Fox News reports that he is expected to declare a national border emergency, and order the military to help secure the southern border.

Trump said he would end a long-standing policy that prevented federal immigration officials from raiding churches and schools.

Any mass evacuation program is expected to face logistical challenges, cost billions, and many legal challenges.

Stay in Mexico

Trump may move quickly to re-implement his “remain in Mexico” policy, which returned nearly 70,000 Mexican asylum seekers to await hearings during his first term.

Stop birthright citizenship

Trump has vowed to scrap the 150-year-old constitutional right that anyone born on American soil is an American citizen as “ridiculous” on day one.

But doing that is more difficult than issuing an executive order, because birthright citizenship is clearly guaranteed by the US Constitution.

Close the border for health reasons

In the year It was last used during the outbreak, but according to US media reports, the incoming administration is looking for a disease that will help justify its plan to close the South American border with Mexico.

Drug cartels

Trump is expected to designate drug cartels as “foreign terrorist organizations,” placing them on a list alongside groups such as al-Qaeda, the Islamic State and Hamas.

Build the wall

Trump in 2016 When he was first elected president in 2016, he signed an executive order to build a border wall. Although the parts of the wall have been built, there are still many things that are not finished, and he can try to finish what he started.

Tariff

Trump has promised to impose tariffs on imports in line with his pledge to prioritize American manufacturing.

Trump introduced tariffs during his first term, including on China, which Joe Biden retained.

But this time he promised a 10% tariff on all products, 25% on Canadian and Mexican goods and 60% on things from China. He said he would begin signing these executive orders on day one.

Experts say the tariffs will make consumer goods more expensive and could exacerbate inflation. Some countries are considering retaliatory tariffs.

Crypto stack

Trump has won cryptocurrency and his election has increased the price of Bitcoin by 30%.

Some believe Trump will move quickly to create a federal “Bitcoin reserve” — a strategic reserve similar to the U.S. gold and oil reserves — that will serve as a “sustainable national asset that will benefit all Americans.”

Repeal Joe Biden’s climate policies

The outgoing president cites a series of policies, laws and funding programs to boost green jobs, control pollution and finance infrastructure as his biggest achievements.

Trump has made it clear that he wants to undo most of it. He is expected to use executive orders to remove restrictions on drilling offshore and on federal land – “drilling, baby drilling” – and fulfill his promise to increase America’s energy production and independence.

He also promised to ban new wind projects and cancel the use of electric vehicles.

Exit the Paris Agreement (again)

In the year In 2017, within six months of taking office, Trump pulled out of the Paris climate accord — a landmark international accord designed to limit global warming.

Biden in 2010 He moved to rejoin the deal on his first day in office in 2021, but Trump is expected to pull out of the deal again.

Free January 6 ‘Hostages’

In the year Hundreds of people sentenced in 2021 after the U.S. Capitol riots are awaiting clemency when Trump returns to office on Monday.

“I tend to forgive most of them,” he told CNN over the winter. “I can’t say for everyone, because the couple is probably out of control.”

More than 1,500 individuals were arrested in connection with the event. At least 600 were charged with assaulting or obstructing federal officials.

At his undergraduate victory rally on Sunday, Trump In 1963, he said he would release classified documents related to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, fueling countless conspiracy theories.

In the year He said he would do the same with files related to the 1968 assassinations of Senator Robert Kennedy and civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr.

The war in Ukraine

Trump said during the campaign that he would end the conflict on day one of his presidency. He said that he may need six months from then. It is unclear what he might do in the early days.

Cuba and Venezuela

Trump may use executive orders to reverse Biden’s recent decision to remove Cuba from the US list of state sponsors of terrorism. He could also reinstate sanctions on Venezuela. During the first term of the administration, both countries were frequently angry with each other.

of the

In recent years, schools and businesses in the US have adopted policies designed to support women and racial minorities.

These practices, often classified under the umbrella of “diversity, equity and inclusion” (DEI), have angered many conservatives and led to legal challenges. Trump has vowed to dismantle them, and major corporations including Meta, Walmart and Amazon have already begun scaling back related initiatives.

Trump could use an executive order to block federal funding to schools or other institutions with DEI programs. It may withhold funding for schools that teach. “Critical Race Theory” (CRT).

Abortion

Like most Republican presidents before him, Trump is expected to reinstate the “Mexico City Policy,” which bars federal aid to international groups that provide abortion counseling.

Title X is also expected to reinstate an abortion law that prohibits federal health providers from prescribing abortions to patients in the low-income family planning program. The change stripped tens of millions of dollars from organizations that provide abortions or make referrals.

Transgender women in sports

Trump has repeatedly criticized what he has described as “transgender insanity” in schools and health care, and has specifically vowed to keep transgender women from competing in women’s sports.

On Sunday morning, Trump promised to issue an executive order that would extend the ban on Chinese-owned social media platform TikTok.

He said his order would give them time to find an American partner to buy a 50% stake in the company.

Trump has previously supported a ban on TikTok, but recently reversed his stance, citing the billions of views his videos drew on the platform during last year’s presidential campaign.
