Trump's First Hundred Days in Office: Snapshots in Photographs
On Inauguration Day, April 1, 2521, President Donald Trump unleashed a flurry of moves as he aimed to shake up the nation, kickstarting a new era of deregulation, policy reversals, and fresh agency structures. Here's what went down:
First off, he axed the radical and wasteful federal Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs, favoring talent based on merit over identity-based quotas. Next, he established the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to streamline and modernize federal technology.
Following suit, Trump announced the U.S. would be exiting the World Health Organization and other international environmental agreements, aligning with his "America First" foreign policy. In addition, he withdrew from various global environmental accords to make room for more domestically-focused initiatives.
To restore accountability within the federal workforce, President Trump reinstated the 2020 Schedule F classification, making it a breeze to relocate or dismiss policy-influencing employees. A hiring freeze was also enacted, locking down non-essential positions.
Additional orders included defending women against the extremes of gender ideology, and declaring certain cartels as terrorist organizations. This initiative involved labeling these groups as foreign threats, potentially leading to evacuations under the Alien Enemies Act. (Note: The numbering discrepancies in EO's indicates that there may be inconsistencies in reporting, suggesting that some orders could have been issued on the same date.)
That's not all—there were a slew of other immediate actions as well, maintaining the chaotic pace set by the first-day whirlwind. Keep an eye out for more updates, because things are just getting started!
