WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President-elect Donald Trump may take four or five executive actions on Friday, the day he is sworn into office, spokesman Sean Spicer said.

"He's got a few of them probably in the area of four or five that we're looking at for Friday," some of them logistical, Spicer said Wednesday at a news briefing. "Then there are some other ones that I expect him to sign with respect to a couple of issues that have been high on his priority list."

It’s a new day, baby!

Note to the REPUBLICAN-controlled Congress - don’t eff it up this time. No excuses.

[proust]

So Friday will be day one?

Trump NOW has the phone and the pen...!!!

[wiseprince]

They will, they’ll be fighting Trump harder than they ever fought Obama. They’ll be using “the shows” to attack like never before

Note to the REPUBLICAN-controlled Congress . . . No excuses.

Agreed. If this fails, it's time for an entirely different course of action to stop big government. President Trump fixing things is the pretty option, and no one wants to see the ugly version.

I’m worried they will cave to the Dims on congressional rules for this session.

Hope like hell its a BIG handful...

I hope among Trump takes action against sanctuary cities. I heard on the news (presumable not fake new, though I wish it were) that Des Moines, Iowa just declared itself sanctuary city without any opposition being raise. Could this be true? Also reportedly Iowa City has declared itself sanctuary city.

We know people who live near Des Moines and they have declared they will not set foot in Des Moins and discourage anybody from visiting it.

I believe BOTH republicans and democrats are going to learn there is no more “politics as usual” in Washington now....

Note to the REPUBLICAN-controlled Congress - don’t eff it up this time. No excuses.

Oh they will....on purpose. They're part of the problem. Thankfully Trump knows this.

[hsmomx3]

Repeal the tax penalty for health insurance....that is a killer!

[bgill]

It needs to be 3, 4, 185 handfuls.

So Friday will be day one?

What is hilarious is that the late night comics are laughing at the fact that Trump said he'd take the weekend off - they were joking that Trump thinks he gets weekends off. Did they even know that Obama only worked a few hours a week?

I’ve posted this several times but I was driving for Trailways in. ‘08 and at the Iowa City University stop an activist group put 25 or so “immigrants” aboard my bus with pictographic instructions on how to vote. I assume that they had already voted in Iowa.

The bombing (of the DNC) starts in 5 minutes?

[bantam]

Couldn’t have said it better!
Those idiots have one last shot at getting things right..We’ll see, Im not holding my breath though.

[Magnum44]

I would love to see the list. But I can wait until Friday and watch the exploding heads at the same time.

There’s a lot of left wing crap in iowa. The farmers all like cheap illegal aliens for ag work. The state has a leftist history or communes. And the farmers all keep their mouths firmly clamped on the government nipple for the wasteful alcohol farming so they push global warming.

Iowa plays middle America, but its a leftist place in many ways.

That’s too bad. The biggest threat to this country is not from Russia but from illegal alien invaders and immigrants from enemy nations. Some cultures are incompatible, and only chaos and destruction will result from close contact.
