President Donald Trump signed three executive actions this morning, killing the Trans-Pacific partnership, instituting a federal hiring freeze, and restoring the Mexico City policy, which bans federal funds from being used to fund abortions.

Trump senior advisors stood and watched Trump sign the executive orders as senior advisor Reince Priebus announced each order as it was signed.

Trump specified that the hiring freeze for federal workers would not apply to the military.

I’d call that a good morning. Planned Parenthood will be up in arms because it’ll cost them some bucks for funding “killing”.

This all well and good but we need to stop all funding to NGO's that fund abortion. Money is fungible. They just shift funds from one pocket to the other and if we give money to help...let's say clean water...they just take that amount from their existing clean water fund and move to fund abortion. We get to say that we're not funding abortion but we actually are. It's the same scam that PP pulls. Just stop all funding to any organization that provides abortion services. Period. Any agency that funds abortion is morally bankrupt and not deserving of American support.

Is that all? By this time of day, Mr. Busy (aka Barack Obama) would have already played 2 rounds of golf.

We were never in TPP, congress never approved. Then again when obmuslim was president it seemed like he never worried about that. For example, the Iran “deal”.

Nice tactic, not giving liberals time to decide which to complain about first.

Patience, got to send the specs out for bids. We have $60 Mil already allocated, now to find the right company to build it. President Trump will negotiate a deal that will save money and build a longer wall in the process. :-)Art of the Deal. Look how he got Boeing to lower the cost of the new AF1.

TPP was clearly Aid and Comfort to the enemy. At least to those who are guaranteed to use it against our interests.

That would be a start for a few miles but much more is needed for the entire
border. Hopefully this can become a priority with the Trump administation.
