Trump to take more than 200 executive actions on Day One
President-elect Donald Trump will sign more than 200 executive actions on Inauguration Day – a massive first wave of policy priorities focused on border security, energy, reducing the cost of living for American families, ending DEI programmes across the federal government, and more, Fox News Digital has learned.
A senior administration official who is familiar with the executive actions and authorised to brief Fox News Digital said Trump on day one will end ‘Catch and Release’; pause all offshore wind leases; terminate the electric vehicle mandate; abolish the Green New Deal; withdraw from the Paris Climate Accord; and take several major steps to assert Presidential control over the federal bureaucracy.
The official said Trump will sign multiple ‘omnibus’ executive orders that each contain dozens of major executive actions.
“The President-elect is issuing a historic series of executive orders and actions that will fundamentally reform the American government, including the complete and total restoration of American sovereignty,” the official told Fox News Digital.
On day one, the President-elect will declare a national border emergency; direct the US military to work with the Department of Homeland Security to fully secure the southern border; and establish a national priority to eliminate all criminal cartels operating on US soil. Trump will close the border to all illegal aliens via proclamation, Fox News Digital has learned.
Trump will also create task forces for the protection of homeland security with officers from the FBI, ICE, CEA, and other agencies to “fully eradicate the presence of criminal cartels.”
Trump will also direct designations of cartels as foreign terrorist organisations, which the official said will unlock new authorities to achieve the Trump homeland security mission.
Fox News Digital has learned that Trump will re-institute ‘Remain in Mexico’, and direct the military to construct a new area of border wall. He will grant emergency authorities to suspend the entry of illegal aliens across the southwest border, allowing for individuals apprehended to be “swiftly returned to their countries of origin.”
Trump will “fully unleash” Alaskan energy, which the official described as essential to US national security.
The senior official told Fox News Digital that the energy executive order deals with “every single energy policy,” and addresses liquid natural gas, ports, fracking, pipelines, permitting and more, while also terminating President Biden polices he said “have constrained US energy supply.”
