Trump eyes major Day One moves on the border, energy production, electric vehicles and more

On his first day as president, Donald Trump promised to sign an executive directive to end the birthright citizenship of children born to illegal immigrants. He also pledged to launch the biggest deportation campaign in American history.

Mr. Trump promised to open oil and gas production including projects for liquefied gas. Trump is also expected to cancel the “tailpipe mandate” which encourages the production of electric vehicles, end federal funding and promotion of sex-change treatments, and require the resignation of all military officials involved in the planning of the 2022 Afghanistan withdrawal.

He also promised to end Russia-Ukraine conflict before taking office.

The Wall Street Journal reported on Tuesday night that Trump’s transition team was considering a draft of an executive order that would establish a “warrior panel” of retired senior officers “with the authority to review 3- and 4-star officers and recommend the removal of anyone deemed unfit to lead.”

5 years later & AOC is still beating her antisemitic, anti-Israel drum. Unfortunately, her influence is only growing, and the media is happy to give her a bullhorn anytime she wants one. If you’ve had enough of AOC, then help us start the efforts to remove her from Congress early so we succeed! It’s time to Protect American Values!

In summary, Mr. Trump’s Day One plans are a part of a larger vision. Some of his closest associates predict that he will shake up Washington’s establishment and challenge the conventional norms.

Mike Davis, pro-Trump lawyer, founder of The Article III Project and a group advocating for conservative judicial nominations, said that President Trump should “clean house” on day one. “He’ll remove career bureaucrats that undermine his agenda, depoliticize the law enforcement, make Big Tech responsible for their censorship against conservatives and pardon those Jan. 6 defendants wrongfully charged by the Biden Justice Department.”

Mr. Trump’s focus will be on curbing illegal immigration, and setting the foundation for his campaign promise of deporting millions of illegal immigrants. He will start with violent criminals.

He will likely restart the construction of the U.S. – Mexico border wall and end the “parole programs” for migrants from Cuba and Honduras, as well as Venezuela. The “Remain in Mexico program” is also expected to be reinstated to keep asylum seekers in Mexico until their cases are resolved.

Andrew Arthur, of the Center for Immigration Studies, stated that “the thrust of their efforts will be to rebuild the lawful system of immigration, and one crucial element in rebuilding this system is to enforce laws governing detention and removal of illegally admitted migrants.”

Trump will be much more prepared when he takes his oath on Jan. 20 to push forward his immigration, economy, and foreign policy agendas than he was during his first term.

The well-oiled machine carried Mr. Trump throughout a campaign that was hard fought and focused on the traditional nuts-and-bolts of running for President.

Trump 2.0 also has a cottage-industry of MAGA inspired think tanks. This includes the American First Policy Institute in Washington, which was founded after he left his office.

Former Trump Cabinet officials, and former Trump alumni are lining up to discuss Day One actions to combat the administrative state.

Stephen Miller, an immigration expert and long-time adviser to Mr. Trump, was announced as his deputy chief.

Tom Homan was acting director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in his first term. He named him as his “border czar”. Kristi Noem was appointed Homeland Security Director and Lee Zeldin, a former New York Rep. as the head of Environmental Protection Agency.

Homan’s job will be to lead Trump’s efforts in deportation. Mr. Trump’s agenda will be boosted by a series of executive orders. For example, he may ban children born to illegal aliens from automatically becoming citizens. This is likely to re-ignite a legal fight over the 14th Amendment which states that anyone “naturalized or born” in the U.S. is a citizen.

Mr. Trump is also expected to take on so-called “birth tourism”.

After campaigning on the “drill baby drill” platform, and making promises to cut energy costs, Trump will lift Biden’s suspension of approvals for liquefied gas export terminals, and rollback regulations on fossil fuel powered power plants.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has said that the American people should be prepared for anything.

In a recent Tucker Carlson interview, Mr. Kennedy stated that he spent two days with Kennedy and he said things which were shocking to him. The level of change that he is looking to bring to our government will be unprecedented, according to Mr. Kennedy.

He said, “He’s a guy that does what he wants.” “He wants to see a revolution and I believe he will get it.”
