Trump Targets Legal Immigration, Stacks Administration with Project 2025 Figures, Plans Deregulation Facing Legal Challenges

Nov 24, 2024, 07:33 PM

President-elect Donald Trump's incoming administration is expected to target both legal and illegal immigration, slowing the pace of application approvals, including naturalizations, and redirecting resources to look for fraud in old applications. Despite denying knowledge of the 'ridiculous and abysmal' plans of Project 2025, Trump is reportedly stacking his administration with key players associated with it. The administration is also preparing for immediate, wholesale deregulation through executive action, a move that is likely to face a 'steep courtroom climb' as it tests the outer limits of presidential authority over federal agencies. Eight years ago, Trump attempted to shake up federal agencies but left after four years with little to show for it; this time, he appears poised to take more aggressive actions.
