So, You Know that New President, Donald Trump? What has He Done for the Past 5 Days? He’s Done WHAT?!?!

Since his inauguration on January 20, 2025, President Donald Trump has initiated several key actions shaping both domestic and international policy.

Executive Orders and Policy Changes

On January 21, 2025, President Trump signed an executive order terminating diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs across federal agencies, creating uncertainty for stakeholders reliant on federal funding for such initiatives. Additionally, on January 23, he ordered the declassification of thousands of documents related to the assassinations of John F. Kennedy, Robert F. Kennedy, and Martin Luther King Jr., aiming to increase transparency and address longstanding conspiracy theories.

Economic Measures and the World Economic Forum

At the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, Trump promoted lower oil prices, urged central banks to cut interest rates, and called for increased foreign investment in the U.S. He also proposed doubling taxes on foreign nationals and companies as a response to discriminatory taxation against American firms. Trump further advocated for increased defense spending among NATO countries and criticized oil producers for their role in the Ukraine conflict. During the event, he exchanged mutual praise with Ana Patricia Botín, president of Banco Santander, strengthening U.S.-Spain relations.

Military and Foreign Policy

President Trump has ordered the withdrawal of approximately 20% of U.S. troops stationed in Europe, totaling around 20,000 soldiers, citing the need for European nations to contribute more financially to their defense. Meanwhile, the Senate advanced Pete Hegseth’s nomination for Secretary of Defense, despite opposition from some Republican senators, and confirmed John Ratcliffe as the CIA Director.

Immigration Policy Actions

The administration has deported over 500 illegal immigrants, including individuals identified as suspected terrorists, gang members, and those convicted of sex crimes against minors. These deportations follow a national emergency declaration at the Mexican border and the signing of immigration-focused executive orders.

Proposal to Restructure FEMA

During visits to hurricane-affected areas in North Carolina and wildfire-damaged regions in California, Trump proposed eliminating the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), advocating for states to independently manage disaster responses. He emphasized the importance of state responsibility in disaster management.

Technological Advancement and National Security

President Trump has also signed executive orders supporting the cryptocurrency industry and establishing a task force on artificial intelligence, reflecting his administration’s emphasis on innovation and national security.

These actions highlight the administration’s priorities in national security, economic reform, technological advancement, and shifting responsibility for governance.

To all of you, when you think of your first week on any job that you have had, what did you accomplish? OK… set up your office. Anything else?

Regardless of which side of the political isle you are on, certainly you must be impressed by his ability to perform and get things done.

Politicians have always been known for their inability to get thigs done. As of December 2024, Statista reported their approval rating of 17%. Why? Because the American people are paying a tremendous amount of money for this group of people to solve our problems, and they have done very little.

I think of Biden, and Harris, and search within my mind of to think of just ONE thing that they have accomplished, yet fail to come up with anything. This has been the beacon that Americans seemed to be expected from this office. Nothing, or Disaster.

However, there is a new guy in town. I am so amazed with his drive to get things done. He has direction, forethought, and the ability to move our country forward. Isn’t that the type of leader that you crave? I do!

Excuses, nor the lack of effort are not the flavor of the day! There is a fast train coming through your town. It does not seem to be stopping to talk to anyone regarding the urgency of it’s mission. For those who oppose this, I invite you to get out of the way, for it is likely to run right over the top of you, as you stand with your crooked speed limit sign.

Progress… indeed it is. Progress with the restoration of American values, and the return of a country that we once knew and loved.

The feeling of American pride is back. We are also encouraged by those who have been making noise, burning our country down, to decide to leave our nation. We welcome your decision, and wish you the very best in finding the illusive happiness that you have been unable to find in your life. The neighborhood seems quiet once again without you.

To all who are inspired by the new direction that our country is taking under the leadership of Donald Trump, let us unite and support his directive in watching America bloom. Love is the new hate. Progress is the new “Do Nothing”, Hope is the new Despair. And Peace is the new Government Control.

For those who do not see things this way, I invite you to give this fast train a moment to travel forward. You will then begin to see positive changes in YOUR life. The outrageous prices in the things that you consume will be reduced, as well as the taxes that you pay. We have just seen President Trump’s order that all overtime wages not be taxed.

As these things unfold, perhaps consider things under your own interpretation, and not through the previous Lense clouded by the indoctrination, which you have been schooled in.

Remove the emotion of Hate in your life, and allow Love to fill your heart. I promise that you will see things in a whole new way. This is indeed something that each one of us can do to contribute to the progress which is occurring right now.

If you have not already, CELEBRATE the change that is happening. Let us continue to squeeze out the cancer of our nation, and even the cancer from within ourselves, and build this great nation again.

Let us all do our part, not to fight, but to love one another. Let us prove that there has never been a division from the majority of us regarding race…for we have always been brothers and sisters. That was all just NOISE to divide us. We uphold and honor each other based upon their character, and not the color of their skin.

I say that tonight, it would be fitting that we all enjoy a deep warm “Bubble Bath” =) as we all celebrate the progress that we are making under the leadership of President Trump.

Hey, we might as well go for the Genis Record of the most people throughout the world taking a bubble bath on the same day. Are you in? I certainly am!
