Trump begins second term: wave of executive orders against migrants (Mexico) and environment
The new president will sign dozens of decrees, including declaring an emergency at the border with Mexico soon after taking office
Donald Trump has virtually officially begun his second term as president of the United States and will do so immediately after being sworn in with a series of sweeping measures. After being sworn in then, the president announced the signing of more than 50 executive orders, some in the Capitol Rotunda and others during public events, such as the rally at the Capital One Arena.
Among the first decisions was the declaration of a national emergency at the border with Mexico, which will allow the use of Pentagon funds for operations against illegal immigration. Trump also reinstated the controversial “Remain in Mexico” policy, which requires asylum seekers to remain on Mexican soil while their applications are processed.
The new administration also promised action against the “deep state,” introducing measures to make thousands of positions in the federal bureaucracy subject to political appointments. On the environmental front, the president announced the withdrawal of climate change funding and the easing of restrictions on drilling, mining and fossil energy production.
Stephen Miller, a key adviser to the president, unveiled the plan during a conference call with Republican leaders, confirming that combating immigration will be a priority. However, these moves have already raised criticism and risk legal challenges from the opposition and civil rights organizations.
On the international front, the resignations of senior U.S. diplomats such as John Bass and Geoff Pyatt underscore the Trump administration’s desire to distance itself from Joe Biden’s administration.
Criticism of the president’s policies has also come from the Church. U.S. Cardinal Blaise Cupich declared that “we will oppose any plan that includes mass deportations,” while Pope Francis called these measures a “disgrace” that affects the most vulnerable.
