Deep dives
Trump's Aggressive Immigration Orders
President Trump executed a series of executive orders that signify a radical shift in U.S. immigration policy. These orders aim to systematically dismantle existing frameworks established by the Biden administration, effectively reimagining the country’s approach to immigration. Trump's actions included the rapid implementation of directives that took years during his first term and now pose a more substantial deterrent to illegal immigration, especially in light of soaring undocumented crossings. The collective goal of these orders seems to be to reinforce Trump’s narrative of an 'invasion' at the southern border, which he claims justifies the need for strict measures against those entering the U.S. illegally.
