| # | Executive Orders (EO) By President Trump | Date sigend | comment |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | EO 14147: Ending the Weaponization of the Federal Government | 20/01/2025 | This EO goes after those who investigated him as well as Jan. 6 rioters. Thus, the irony is that this order exactly weaponizes the federal government |

What is best for US citizens is subject to debate. Arguably, Biden's policies brought well-being to the American people, while already one month into Trumps second term the economy is shown first alarming signs of failing and US National Security is lower as the current administration rejects and hazzles the allies and neighbors of the US, while Russian influence on US policy is gaining my the minute. |
