Analyzing Trump’s 2024 White House Efforts Towards a National Energy Emergency and Ending “Problems of Inclusion” in the U.S.

Many of his predecessors’ policies will be reversed after Donald Trump’s inauguration on Monday, as the president prepares to sign a flurry of executive orders.

Trump is expected to declare a national emergency at the U.S. southern border, designate criminal cartels as terror groups and end birthright citizenship for children born to immigrant parents without legal status, according to incoming White House officials who spoke to reporters on a call on condition of background.

The action would also reinstate “Remain in Mexico,” which would require some asylum seekers as the southern border to wait in Mexico for their hearings in U.S. immigration court, and build the wall along the southern border.

Trump said he would make it a U.S. policy that there are only two genders. LGBTQ+ rights were a flashpoint in the 2024 presidential campaign.

The change will require government agencies to use the definitions on documents like passports, visas and employee records the official said. The official said taxpayer funds won’t be used for transition services.

A second action will end diversity, equity and inclusion programs in the federal government, the official said, giving as examples environmental justice programs in the U.S. Department of Agriculture, as well as diversity training.

A new administration official told reporters on a background conference call that Trump would propose to declare a national energy emergency on Monday in order to cut regulations for the energy industry and Alaskan resources.

“That national energy emergency will unlock a variety of different authorities that will enable our nation to quickly build again, to produce coal and natural resources, to create jobs, to create prosperity and to strengthen our nation’s national security,” the official said. The official said energy prices are too high, but declined on the call to name a lower target price.

An official in the incoming Trump administration said the action will end the “electric vehicle mandate” and will also end efforts to curtail consumer choice on things consumers use every day.

Trump Signs a Presidential Memorandum on Inflation and the High-Dimensional Justice Scales Will be Aligned

Trump will sign a presidential memorandum on inflation Monday, an official from the incoming administration said. The official did not provide additional details.

The scales of justice will be re-aligned, Trump said during his address, adding that “weaponization” will end. Trump was charged in four different criminal cases, two federal and two in the states — New York and Georgia. Only one made it to the courtroom before the election. The business fraud conviction of Trump was related to payments that were made to cover up an alleged affair with an adult film actress.

Two other cases were related to Trump’s false claims about the 2020 election being stolen — his inspiration for the Jan. 6 siege at the U.S. Capitol, his phone call to Georgia election officials asking them to “find” votes to overturn the results of the election. The other federal case was about classified documents Trump took from the White House. The three faced setbacks in their prosecutions.

To the Black and Hispanic communities, thank you for the love and trust you gave to me, I will not forget it, said Trump.

Trump did win a record percentage of Latinos for a Republican — 46%, according to exit polls. He only won a small number of Black voters, but saw an improvement in Black men.

The Dream Comes Real, the Future Comes from the Dead: The Case for the U.S. President Donald Trump in His Second Term

“We will strive to make his dream a reality, we can’t do it alone,” said Trump as he noted that his inauguration was on Martin Luther King Jr. Day. He will have his dream come true. ” President Biden, seated behind Trump, could be seen with a slight smirk.

Trump also promised to rename the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America, Mt. Denali in Alaska back to Mt. McKinley and that the country would wrest control of the Panama Canal.

Clinton, who was defeated by Trump in the presidential election, was seen laughing when Trump said he would rename the Gulf of Mexico.

Of course, many of the things Trump is calling for are not supported by all Americans. According to a recent NPR survey, Americans are evenly split on deporting illegal immigrants and think tariffs will hurt the economy more than they help it, even if Trump follows through with his promise to pardon people convicted of attacking the Capitol.

“They tried to take my freedom and, indeed, to take my life,” Trump said. “I felt my life was saved for a reason. I was saved by God to make America great again.”

Culture issues and immigration were always the fuel to Trump’s political rise. Immigration has been a key priority of his base. In the latest NPR/PBS News/Marist poll, 4 in 10 Republicans were in favor of mass deportations and more than half said they strongly support it.

Trump argues those measures would help build American “prosperity,” though he said post-election that it would be “hard” to lower prices. Many Americans said prices and inflation were their top concerns.

Trump also said he would declare a “national energy emergency,” would rescind the Green New Deal and the electric vehicle mandate and create an “External Revenue Service” to level tariffs against other countries’ goods.

Trump has vowed to begin his second term with both new and old efforts to curb legal migration and deportations of those who are in the US without legal status.

“Our southern border is overrun by cartels, criminal gangs, known terrorists, human traffickers, smugglers, unvetted military-age males from foreign adversaries, and illicit narcotics that harm Americans, especially our youth,” according to incoming White House officials who spoke to reporters on a background call.

Trump campaigned on border security promises, and he and his allies argue that his electoral win is an endorsement of his upcoming efforts on the issue.

At times, the number of border crossing reached all- time highs under the Biden administration. There has been a decrease in unauthorized apprehensions in the last six months.

Incoming Trump border czar Tom Homan also said large-scale raids to deport and detain those without legal status are set to begin as soon as Tuesday, focusing on people considered a security or safety threat.

The officials said that they would clarify the role of the military in protecting the integrity of the United States. The officials said the action defines the mission to seal our borders and introduces campaign planning requirements to the military. The Executive Order directs the military to block invasions, including unlawful mass migration, narcotics traffickers, human traffickers and other criminal activities, in order to maintain our sovereignty territory, integrity and security.

Trump Planned 10 Sweeping Actions on Border Security on Day 1: What We Know and What We Don’t Know

The policy of “catch and release,” in which immigrants without legal status were released from confinement while waiting for a court hearing, will end, according to officials.

The Trump White House plans to designate criminal cartels and others as foreign terrorist organizations and specifically designated global terrorists. The US can easily remove members of criminal organizations, like the Thren de Aragua, which hails from Venezuela.

The officials said the gang is an arm of the Venezuela’s government that is attempting to invade the United States.

They are going to end asylum completely and close the border to everyone who isn’t a legal resident “which creates an immediate removal process without possibility of asylum,” officials said.

The 14th amendment has it’s own provision that says the White House plans to end birthright citizenship. The officials focused on the phrase in the amendment that said, “subject to the jurisdiction of the federal government”, which meant that the federal government wouldn’t recognize automatic birthright citizenship for children of parents without legal status. Immediate legal challenges are likely due to this action.

The action repeals the open borders policies of the Biden administration and allows agents and officers of ICE and CBP to deport people from the U.S. “It establishes federal homeland security task forces to cooperate with state and local law enforcement in the removal of gangs, criminals and illegal aliens from the United States, and it also reinforces the faithful execution of the immigration laws,” the officials said.

A NPR/PBS News/Marist poll shows that Americans are evenly divided on the issue of mass deportations of people without legal status.

“This action was put in place to order Attorney General to seek the death penalty for the murder of law enforcement officers and illegal immigrants.” It encourages state agencies and district attorneys to bring capital state charges for these crimes,” the officials said.

“So as you know, this is about national security, this is about public safety, and this is about the victims of some of the most violent, abusive criminals we’ve seen enter our country in our lifetime. The officials said it would end today.

Many of these promises have been reiterated by Trump over the years, but they may take weeks or months to be implemented. Several actions will likely be the subject of legal challenges or need Congress to mobilize new funding that Trump currently does not have.

“We get into the big question marks.” He has talked about how he could use, expand, and detain more people. In an interview with NPR’s Morning Edition, the president of the Migration Policy Institute said that it will almost certainly happen.

“But whether he’ll be able to use military bases or not, or other federal facilities — and whether he will try and use the military itself, and that would require going back to the Alien and Sedition Act of 1798, and that will almost certainly be litigated in the courts,” he said.

Even quickly scaling operations could be a challenge for the new administration. An NPR investigation last year found that the U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement tried to increase the number of deportations during the first term of the Trump presidency.

In their final budget request, the Biden administration asked for $19 billion to fund additional personnel, facilities, repatriation capabilities and other enforcement resources along the southwest border.
