Trump’s Day One Agenda: Deportation Push, Riot Pardons, and Erasing Legal Cases
President Trump has outlined a sweeping agenda for his first day in office, including actions to overturn criminal cases against him, pardon Capitol riot participants, dismantle the federal workforce, impose tariffs on imported goods, roll back protections for transgender students, increase fossil fuel production, negotiate a peace deal between Russia and Ukraine, and initiate mass deportations of undocumented immigrants. These plans, while ambitious, face varying levels of feasibility and legal challenges. Some actions, like firing special counsel Jack Smith, are within his immediate power, while others, like mass deportations, require significant logistical and international cooperation. Trump’s agenda reflects his desire to reverse policies enacted by the Biden administration and implement his signature policies, signaling a sharp shift in direction for the country.
