The First 100 Days of President Trump

(these statistics are taken directly from the White House press release)

The U.S. economy saw strong job growth with 177,000 new jobs added in April. Multiple major companies, including IBM, Pratt Industries, Merck, Amgen, and Kimberly-Clark, announced large-scale investments in U.S.-based manufacturing, totaling billions of dollars and creating thousands of jobs. Foreign and domestic firms also announced plans to expand or shift production to the U.S., reinforcing a trend of economic on-shoring.

Illegal border crossings were at record lows amid intensified enforcement. Immigration authorities conducted large-scale operations resulting in over a thousand arrests, and the administration reached agreements with foreign governments for the repatriation of illegal immigrants, despite the efforts of rogue judges and radical leftists. Tom Homan has been instrumental in highlighting the dangers of illegal immigration, human trafficking, and fentanyl smuggling. I will never understand how any American can be against ending this lawless behavior, which is saving lives and making America safer.

The administration continued efforts to promote peace and U.S. interests abroad. Key developments included economic and diplomatic deals with Ukraine, which will make Ukraine safer and America wealthier, the release of American and other detainees, (at last count I believe it was 47) and sanctions targeting entities linked to Iran and Houthi militants. A joint peace pledge was brokered between Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. President Trump is the epitome of “peace through strength”.

A multi-billion-dollar Liquefied Natural Gas project was approved, and policy changes were made to promote ethanol fuel use. Regulatory reforms aimed to reduce costs and expand access to gas-powered consumer products and hunting opportunities on federal lands.

President Trump signed various executive orders focused on law enforcement, religious freedom, and immigration policy. He proposed a federal budget emphasizing defense, border security, and spending cuts. Other reforms targeted disaster response, FEMA operations, and support for American auto manufacturing.

Federal investigations were launched into alleged civil rights violations in public schools and higher education. Reviews were initiated into medical practices involving gender transition procedures, and new regulations focused on increasing access to research and transparency in federal science funding.

The administration pursued criminal prosecutions in areas like child exploitation and narcotics trafficking. Agencies were restructured to enhance counter-narcotics intelligence and air traffic controller recruitment. I realize that the democrats are “all things against Trump”, but how in the world can they stand in front of the American people and tout their opposition to programs that reduce the likelihood of child abuse at any level?

PepsiCo committed to eliminating artificial ingredients from some of its products following federal pressure. The NIH pledged to make taxpayer-funded research freely available to the public, promoting open access to scientific information.

In his 15th week in office, President Trump showcased a sweeping agenda focused on revitalizing the American economy, strengthening national security, restoring law and order, and promoting American values at home and abroad. Through aggressive job creation efforts, landmark foreign policy moves, and bold executive actions, the administration emphasized a return to manufacturing, a crackdown on illegal immigration, and a reassertion of U.S. leadership on the world stage. These actions mark a decisive step in delivering on the promises of the first 100 days, laying the foundation for continued growth, security, and sovereignty for the American people.
