  • President-elect Donald Trump has announced plans to sign dozens of executive orders after taking office Jan. 20. While some may take weeks to sign on, others may go into effect immediately.

The article from MassLive outlines several policy changes and actions that former President Donald Trump plans to implement immediately upon a potential return to the White House. Key points include: Trump intends to invoke the Insurrection Act on his first day to deploy the military against civil demonstrations, aiming to quell what he describes as "left-wing protests." He also plans to reverse Biden administration policies, such as those on immigration, by reinstating a travel ban on certain Muslim-majority countries, ending birthright citizenship, and initiating mass deportations. Additionally, Trump aims to undo climate change initiatives, including rejoining the Paris Climate Agreement, and to overhaul the Department of Justice, potentially firing U.S. Attorneys and replacing them with loyalists. He also plans to investigate and possibly prosecute political opponents, including President Joe Biden, and to dismantle the Affordable Care Act, replacing it with an unspecified alternative. These plans reflect Trump's intention to assert strong executive power and to enact a conservative agenda from the outset of his administration.
