President-elect Donald Trump has confirmed plans for executive orders to be enacted on his first day in office, aimed at addressing the Biden-Harris administration's border crisis. Karoline Leavitt, Trump's incoming press secretary, indicated that one of the key focuses of these orders may involve Title 42, a controversial policy from the Trump era that permitted the expulsion of asylum-seekers from the United States. This approach reflects Trump's ongoing commitment to reshape immigration policy as he prepares to assume the presidency.
