Trump to take more than 200 executive actions on first day in office -- to clean up 'failed, corrupt political establishment'

President-elect Donald Trump is set to kick off the cleanup of the nation’s “failed and corrupt political establishment” by implementing over 200 executive actions as soon as he takes office on Monday, according to aides.

Among these actions are 50 executive orders, which carry legal weight. Some of the orders are related to border security and domestic energy production, while others focus on ensuring that federal employees are hired based on merit, as reported by Fox News Digital.

Trump intends to begin signing these orders right after his inauguration, as stated by Jason Miller, a senior adviser to the incoming administration. Many of these actions will fall under comprehensive directives.

The incoming president previously indicated he would sign at least 25 orders on his first day in office, the outlet said.

“This is a massive, record-setting, unmatched first wave,” an official told the outlet. “This is the most extensive list of executive actions in American history, all guided by a relentless commitment to deliver on the campaign promise.” 

As part of the orders, Trump will declare a national border emergency that will effectively close the southern US border. It is unclear whether the country’s northern border will have any immediate action taken against it.

Some of his more extensive Day One plans have already leaked, including his mass deportation plan slated to begin in Chicago immediately after his inauguration.

The crackdown would be on top of a potential citizenship order that would end automatic citizenship to children of illegal migrants born in the United States.

“On Day One of my new term in office, I will sign an executive order making clear to federal agencies that under the correct interpretation of the law, going forward, the future children of illegal aliens will not receive automatic US citizenship,” Trump said in a video posted in May of 2023.

This order would violate the 14th Amendment and likely be challenged in the courts.

Trump also has vowed to suspend the security clearances of 51 national security officials involved in the Hunter Biden laptop scandal ahead of the presidential election in 2020.

In addition, he will put government offshore-wind leases on hold, end the Biden administration’s electric-vehicle mandates for auto manufacturers and withdraw from the Paris Climate Accord, Fox said.

“I want to be a dictator for one day because I’m gonna get going with, ‘Drill, baby, drill,’” Trump said on the campaign trail, referring to domestic oil production. “After that, I’ll never be a dictator.”

Trump also will institute federal workforce policies warning employees they can get the boot if they don’t comply with his directives, that people will be hired based on merit and that workers will have to get back in the office as opposed to toiling remotely.

“There is a massive federal workforce that has been moving its objectives at expense of the American people — and President Trump is taking command, saying, ‘You will serve the American people and only American people,’ ” the official told Fox. “This is about stopping corrupt, abusive behavior and re-focusing the government on its fundamental duties to the American people.” 

Beyond that, Trump also plans on granting sweeping pardons to every person arrested in connection to the Jan. 6 attack on the US Capitol. 

More than 1,625 people across all 50 states have been charged for a variety of criminal and federal crimes, with over 465 in prison, according to the US Attorney’s Office.

Trump even plans to rename the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America, Fox said.

Trump even scored a major victory the day before being sworn in.

TikTok went offline overnight, claiming it needed to comply with a congressional mandate that banned it starting Sunday. Trump took to social media early Sunday claiming he had a plan to “save” it — and its owner put it back online.
