Trump delivers huge parting shot to Biden with first executive order as he returns to power
Daily Mail UK ^ | January 20, 2025 | Sarah Ewall-Wice

President Donald Trump declared 'now, the work begins' at his inaugural parade in Washington and immediately delivered on his promise by signing an executive order to undo former President Biden's presidential actions.

'You are now witnessing the dawn of the golden age of America,' he declared to great applause. 'We're not going to put up with that crap anymore.'

Trump turned his rally at a downtown Washington arena into a signing ceremony as he grabbed his pen and issued multiple executive actions to institute major policy changes.

He told the crowd actions were coming on retaining federal documents and pardoning the people charged in the riot on the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

The president said he would sign pardons back at the White House and indicated those convicted would be released Monday. He claimed they didn't do something wrong and referred to them as hostages.

Trump officially halted 78 Biden-era executive orders, announced a regulatory freeze preventing bureaucrats from issuing regulations until the Trump administration has full control of the government and a freeze on all federal hiring except for military and a few other essential areas.

He also ordered a requirement that federal workers return to full-time in-person work, a directive to every department and agency to address the cost of living crisis, and announced withdrawal from the Paris climate treaty.

Nice start on previous EO’s.
But dig deeper!
Go back to the very start, examine EVERY EO, there are MANY more that need to be rescinded.
May we now get rid of DACA for instance?

Wonderful! Back to work, bureaucrats!

This order alone will reduce the federal workforce by 5 to 10 percent through self-attrition.

Nope. Those 88k hires have not been completed.

He is only transferring money.

https://www.kiplinger.com/taxes/605107/new-irs-agents-and-the-inflation-reduction-act

Trump’s latest comments have increased the number of IRS agents from 87,000 to 88,000
...................
Of the $80 billion for the IRS in the Inflation Reduction Act, $45.6 billion was designated for enforcement.


Trump may be serious. There is a lot of tax money to be collected at the border.

More like 50 percent.
Good riddance!
Other than those mandated by the US Constitution,
how many workers should we have?

I wonder if this is where Elon is going to help Trump.

Install an app so each federal employee will have to check in when they report to work.

Failing to do that, their employment with the federal government will be terminated immediately.

Supervisors won't get to sabotage Trump's executive order.
