Some Stalinist today actually asked snarkily, what President Trump has actually accomplished.
Mind you...he's been in office all of 18.5 days...
Happily I was able to drown the shithead with the facts on this list—which might come in handy for you, too...
So far President Trump has signed/issued these order, actions, memoranda:
- An order directing the Treasury secretary to review the 2010 Dodd-Frank financial regulatory law.
- A memorandum instructing the Labor Department to delay implementing an Obama rule requiring financial professionals who are giving advice on retirement, and who charge commissions, to put their client's interests first.
- An order instructing agencies that whenever they introduce a regulation, they must first abolish two others.
- A memorandum to restructure the National Security Council and the Homeland Security Council.
- A memorandum directing the Secretary of Defense to draw up a plan within 30 days to defeat ISIS.
- An order to lengthen the ban on administration officials working as
lobbyists. There is now a 5 year-ban on officials becoming lobbyists
after they leave government, and a lifetime ban on White House officials
lobbying on behalf of a foreign government.
- An executive order imposing a 120-day suspension of the refugee
program and a 90-day ban on travel to the U.S. from citizens of seven
terror hot spots: Iraq, Iran, Syria, Libya, Yemen, Somalia and Sudan.
- Two multi-pronged orders on border security and immigration
enforcement including: the authorization of a U.S.-Mexico border wall;
the stripping of federal grant money to sanctuary cities; hiring 5,000
more Border Patrol agents; ending “catch-and-release” policies for
illegal immigrants; and reinstating local and state immigration
enforcement partnerships.
- A memorandum calling for a 30-day review of military readiness.
- Two orders reviving the Keystone XL pipeline and Dakota Access
piplines. He also signed three other related orders that would: expedite
the environmental permitting process for infrastructure projects
related to the pipelines; direct the Commerce Department to streamline
the manufacturing permitting process; and give the Commerce Department
180 days to maximize the use of U.S. steel in the pipeline.
- An order to reinstate the so-called "Mexico City Policy" – a ban on
federal funds to international groups that perform abortions or lobby
to legalize or promote abortion. The policy was instituted in 1984 by
President Reagan, but has gone into and out of effect depending on the
party in power in the White House.
- A notice that the U.S. will begin withdrawing from the
Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal. Trump called the order "a great
thing for the American worker."
- An order imposing a hiring freeze for some federal government
workers as a way to shrink the size of government. This excludes the
military, as Trump noted at the signing.
- An order that directs federal agencies to ease the “regulatory burdens” of ObamaCare. It orders agencies to “waive, defer, grant exemptions from, or delay the implementation of any provision or requirement” of ObamaCare that imposes a “fiscal burden on any State or a cost, fee, tax, penalty, or regulatory burden on individuals, families, healthcare providers, health insurers, patients, recipients of healthcare services, purchasers of health insurance, or makers of medical devices, products, or medications.”
