Among those pardoned is Enrique Tarrio, the former leader of the Proud Boys, who was sentenced to 22 years in prison on seditious conspiracy charges. Trump also commuted the sentence of Stewart Rhodes, the founder of the Oath Keepers militia, who had been sentenced to 18 years in prison on sedition charges.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>He also signed an executive order seeking to revoke birthright citizenship<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>\u2013 automatic citizenship for people born in the US \u2013 for the children of undocumented immigrants<\/strong>. Birthright citizenship is protected by the 14th amendment and the order will almost certainly be challenged in court.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>One order\u00a0declared a \u201cnational emergency\u201dat the southern border, paving the way to send US troops to the area<\/strong>\u00a0and another that designated drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>He signed an executive order too, for a second time, withdraw the US from the Paris climate accords.\u00a0<\/strong>He also declared a national energy emergency as part of a barrage of pro-fossil fuel actions and efforts to \u201cunleash\u201d already booming US energy production.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Another order will\u00a0remove the US from the World Health Organization<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/us-news\/2025\/jan\/20\/trump-executive-order-who-withdrawal\">\u00a0(WHO)<\/a>. \u201cWorld Health ripped us off, everybody rips off the United States. It\u2019s not going to happen any more,\u201d Trump said at the signing. The withdrawal of the US would dramatically cut funding from the global public health organization.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>He issued an executive order requiring federal agencies revoke the use of \u201cgender\u201d and \u201cgender identity\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0and instead use a binary definition of \u201csex\u201d in implementing policy \u2013 including in issuing passports, a move that LGBTQ+ rights groups have vowed to challenge in court.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Another order reclassified thousands of federal employees as political hires, making it much easier for them to be fired<\/strong>. Key aides to Trump have called for mass government firings. Project 2025 made attacks on the deep or administrative state a core part of Trump\u2019s second term.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>One order\u00a0renamed the 617,800 sq mile Gulf of Mexico\u00a0and Alaska\u2019s 20,000ft Denali.\u00a0<\/strong>The Gulf of Mexico will be renamed the Gulf of America, and Denali, the highest mountain in North America, will revert to Mount McKinley, which it was called before Barack Obama changed the name in 2015. The order will have no bearing on the names being used internationally.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Trump also\u00a0signed an executive ordertemporarily delaying the enforcement of a federal ban on TikTok for at least 75 days.\u00a0<\/strong>\u201cI guess I have a warm spot for TikTok that I didn\u2019t have originally,\u201d Trump said at the White House.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here\u2019s a rundown of his executive orders:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":44985,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_post_source_name":"","_post_source_url":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[9517,11394,8348,160,11673,9204,11183,9649,9194,287,8023,8032,10507,5262,11273,5494,10520,12009,7162,3545,6569,2264,5579,12634,2702,9222,2717,1510,8101,7964,8770,6025,1253,8306,11167,9996,2278,12350,11307,7584,8769,7609,7592,9178,9262,6348,6571,2982,36,594],"class_list":["post-44984","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-alaska","tag-attacks","tag-ban","tag-barack-obama","tag-birthright","tag-border","tag-boys","tag-capitol","tag-charges","tag-children","tag-citizenship","tag-conspiracy","tag-court","tag-cut","tag-drug","tag-energy","tag-enrique-tarrio","tag-executive-order","tag-fossil-fuel","tag-founder","tag-fuel","tag-government","tag-gulf","tag-health","tag-identity","tag-immigrants","tag-lgbtq","tag-mexico","tag-militia","tag-north","tag-oath-keepers","tag-obama","tag-paris","tag-prison","tag-prosecution","tag-proud-boys","tag-public-health","tag-revoke","tag-sentence","tag-sex","tag-stewart-rhodes","tag-terrorist","tag-tiktok","tag-troops","tag-united-states","tag-us","tag-white","tag-white-house","tag-world","tag-who"],"blocksy_meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nsemgh.com\/api-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44984","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nsemgh.com\/api-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nsemgh.com\/api-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nsemgh.com\/api-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nsemgh.com\/api-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=44984"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.nsemgh.com\/api-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44984\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":44986,"href":"https:\/\/www.nsemgh.com\/api-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44984\/revisions\/44986"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nsemgh.com\/api-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/44985"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nsemgh.com\/api-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=44984"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nsemgh.com\/api-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=44984"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nsemgh.com\/api-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=44984"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
