Deep dives
The Start of Trump's First Term and the Travel Ban
Donald Trump's first term began with a dramatic inaugural address and rapid implementation of his campaign promises, particularly regarding crime and immigration. Within a week, he signed Executive Order 13769, which instituted a travel ban affecting seven Muslim-majority countries, claiming it was necessary for national security. This immediate action sparked widespread chaos at airports across the country, as travelers were abruptly detained, and attorneys scrambled to challenge the legality of the ban. The fast pace of these developments led to protests and significant legal battles, illustrating the tumultuous nature of Trump's early presidency.
