Trump to Sign Record 200 Executive Orders on Day One, Reversing Biden Policies on Immigration and Energy

Jan 20, 2025, 01:17 AM

President-elect Donald Trump is preparing to sign a record number of executive orders on his first day in office, according to multiple sources. Reports indicate that Trump plans to sign over 200 executive orders immediately after his inauguration, aiming to reverse Biden's policies and fulfill his campaign promises. Targeting key areas such as immigration, border security, energy policies, and federal workforce restructuring, specific actions include declaring a national emergency at the southern border, issuing a proclamation to close the border, designating drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations, reinstating the 'Remain in Mexico' policy, ending 'Catch and Release,' directing the military to construct a new phase of the border wall, overturning energy drilling restrictions, and ending DEI hiring practices. Trump's advisors are reportedly hoping he can sign multiple executive actions at one time under an 'omnibus' executive order. The unprecedented move underscores Trump's intent to not waste a single moment in delivering on his promises during his second presidency.
