“When the sun sets tomorrow afternoon, the invasion of our borders will have stopped and all illegal intruders, in one way or another, will be back home,” he said at this Sunday’s event. Already in the campaign, he promised to launch the largest deportation of migrants in an irregular situation in the history of the country.

According to the ‘Wall Street Journal’, Trump will declare a state of emergency on the border with Mexico. Fox assures that it will also designate the cartels of the drug trafficking as foreign terrorist organizations and will reestablish the ‘Stay in Mexico’ program, so that migrants wait for the outcome of the immigration process on the other side of the border.
Energy
In addition to some new measures, Trump’s plan involves undoing part of the program carried out in recent years by the Biden administration. In this sense, it is likely to eliminate programs aimed at promoting diversity in the federal administration and lift restrictions on oil exploitation.
Pardons

The platform, which has more than 170 million users in the United States, was immediately filled with videos of people celebrating his return and the platform credited Donald Trump with making it possible to reverse the rule voted by the president.

The president-elect intends to approve this Monday an executive order with a 90-day moratorium to facilitate a solution and avoid its prohibition. Furthermore, he has proposed as a solution that the company is 50% American owned.
Public procurement
Trump wants to reform the federal government’s hiring policies and make it easier to fire public employees who do not fulfill their job duties. In this sense, the president will once again sign an executive order, known as ‘Annex F’, which he already issued in October 2020, days before losing against Biden in the presidential election, which contemplates eliminate labor protections for workers federal.
