So, when was the last time a Republican received full confirmation of the Senate? Go Rubio!
Requirement that federal workers turn to full-time in-person work immediately. (Missed that one earlier.)
- Rescission of 78 Biden-era actions (executive orders/memos)
- Regulatory freeze - no more until the DJT administration has full control of the government
- Freeze on federal hiring (aside from military) until the administration has full control of the government
- All departments to address the cost of living crisis
- Withdrawal from Paris Climate Treaty - will save over $1 Trillion
- Letter transmitted to the UN explaining the above
- Directive ordering restoration of free speech and preventing censorship going forward
- Directive to federal government ending weaponization of government against political adversaries
(I might have missed one in all the excitement.)
Yay!! So glad they're able to perform for the world.
Senate's getting some business done this afternoon during the parade.
Hegseth and Rubio voted out of committee; Laken Riley Act vote to be taken up.
That was one of the biggest smiles I've seen from Melania at an official event. She looks genuinely happy! Suck on that, all you conspiracy theorists who said she was like a hostage
What's in the black binder/folder, I wonder? (Thought the EOs were already at the table.)
He's not Becky. He was vociferously Never Trump in 2016. While he has modulated, I still don't believe he thinks Trump is worthy of the crown.
Yeah that part was good. I don't think he is a fan of Trump.
I loved what he had to say about what makes America and Inauguration Day unique.
She is so patronizing. "Trump supporters love the memes and the entertainment." No Jessica we love the common sense.
I'd be putting on the sneakers for the next round.
Wonder if Melania is whipping off those stilettos off in the limo before the arena event?
Gen Xers unite!
