Trump Unveils Agenda for First Day in Office: Mass Deportations, Tariffs, and Pardons

 

President-Elect Donald Trump has unveiled his plans for his first day in office, which include launching mass deportation efforts, imposing tariffs on foreign countries, and pardoning individuals convicted in the January 6, 2021, Capitol intrusion.

 

Here are the key points from Trump’s agenda:

  • Mass Deportation: Trump plans to start by deporting criminals and then move on to others, with the goal of keeping families together by sending them all back.
  • Tariffs and Trade: Trump wants to impose tariffs on foreign countries that do business with the US, which could lead to higher prices for American consumers.
  • Pardons: Trump plans to pardon individuals convicted in the January 6, 2021, Capitol intrusion, citing overly harsh treatment in prison.
  • Immigration Reform: Trump wants to end birthright citizenship, which is granted to individuals born in the US to undocumented parents.
  • Dreamers: Trump expressed willingness to work with Democrats to ensure that Dreamers, undocumented immigrants brought to the US as children, can stay in the country.

 

These plans have sparked concerns among immigration advocates and experts, who warn that they could lead to widespread human rights abuses and damage to the US economy.
