The first week’s office of Washington -Donald Trump was the Blitz of Executive Order and Memo, and some were important, and some were just a press release for a wonderful letter head designed to overwhelm Washington.
The second week of the second week showed that Trump’s up to second instincts were more than just bids. It revealed how the president grew up in his first term (irregular, confused, and unified, rather than sharing the country, or couldn’t concentrate on it.
As a result, it is a mix of fear and hope for many Trump critics in Washington. The removal of civil servants and Trump’s concerns about the constitutional power are mixed with the revival of hope that the Democratic Party can fight the president who is more effective for blustering. Than actual action.
He will not present Trump, who has significantly shed a fantasy that he does not try to implement a large mass of the project 2025 agenda. And unlike early 2017, Trump and his core allies know better about how they know better about their will and their will.
“It’s very different. Sean Spicer, Trump’s first White House reporter, said. “Outside the office for four years, the president was able to think about people who wanted to surround, those who wanted to stay away, the policies he wanted to pursue, and the process of doing it. . ”
But Trump’s two -week struggle, including the shameless and potentially unconstitutional attempts to freeze all federal spending, will not be confirmed that two of his candidates will not be confirmed.
“One of the things we remember this week this week is that politicians and administrations are not limited by politics,” HuffPost said. “Everyone is subject to the law of politics and gravity law.”
Federal Fund Fracas
On Monday evening, the budget secretariat issued a wonderful note that ordered a federal agency to pause all financial subsidies. This order threatened to interfere with a wide range of federal safety, and represented insults on the separation of constitutional power because it must be a council that controls spending, not the White House.
He said that organizations that receive federal subsidies, such as charities such as wheels, were concerned that they could not provide services. A American meal spokesman told HuffPost, told HuffPost, saying, “We will stop the service to millions of vulnerable elderly people who do not have any other means to buy or prepare meals.”
The White House argued that this order was first interpreted and that it would not affect the programs for Americans to help Americans at home. Two days later, after reporting the court’s order and the suspension of the Medicaid system, Trump officials faced and withdrew their orders. But they continued to insist on the intention of the memo, and the federal judge threatened to destroy the second ban on the order.
Other White House factions were eager to blame each other in dynamic media in Trump’s confused first term. It was confusing that even the Republic of Congress began to move even.
Thom Tillis (RN.C.) Senator said to HuffPost, “I think some of his advisors must actually analyze syntax through this. “When they realize that there is a problem because they are moving fast, I think it’s a good idea to say.
Senator Mike Rounds (RS.D.) said, “I think advice and consent are still a work at once, from Congress to Trump’s financing freezing.
Project 2025 is here
In the first two weeks, Trump proved that he is trying to dismantle and reconstruct the government as presented in the 2024 campaign, as presented in Project 2025, the unpopular conservative policy blueprint for Trump. According to the recommendation, millions of federal employees are under pressure to quit smoking, including vague “Buy” promises.
Trump fired 18 prosecutors who are rooting in government corruption and have been appointed axes by two major labor commissions. For international development.
The government -level efforts to push a career official seemed to be at least partially led by the billionaire Elon Musk, the chairman of the government efficiency department, which is an advisory panel that identifies the source of government waste. Musk’s fingerprints were sent by emails that officials received to provide eight months of severance package.
Senator Chris Van Hollen (D-MD.) Told reporters this week that it seemed to be an idea of Elon Musk. “I think it is really important to recognize that the federal employees are starting to attack the full -scale attack on the merit -based system. That is about their schedule F proposal to replace the merit -based federal employees with political Chronny. ”
“I don’t know if it’s legal, but I will advise you to check if you’re thinking. I know Donald Trump has a history that doesn’t follow.”
Tragedy
Trump’s first day of his office also tested his response to major disasters. Last Friday, the president visited North Carolina and California. Hanju is still recovering from other states that still fight destructive floods and historically destructive forest fires.
But the first disaster that only occurred in Trump’s watch was Wednesday night. Nearly 70 people were killed in the middle of the Potomac River near the Washington DC, the commercial jet and the army helicopter of American Airlines.
Trump did not waste time to politicize the event, but criticized the wrong diversity employment practices that were incorrectly characterized by lowering the standard for aviation traffic controllers (preliminary investigation results). In fact, the federal aviation management controller receives strict training and evaluation. The biggest obstacle faced by an agency is an important lack of employees.
The president read a list of hiring criteria for various candidates on the FAA website over Trump’s first term in Thursday, Thursday. It means that the focus of hiring diversity is related to worse results. For the agency. “We want great people to do this. This is the best chess game, ”Trump said.
This briefing was an opportunity to develop his anti -day agenda by accusing Trump’s development of his anti -day agenda and accusing Trump’s inevitable tragedy.
But some of the Trump Senate allies hesitated to reach the same conclusion without a thorough investigation.
Senator TED CRUZ (R-Texas) said to HuffPost this week, “One or more people have made a deadly and deadly mistake, but we must investigate the evidence and understand what happened.
‘We still have no plans’
And the parliamentary margin of parliamentary GOP’s margin remains as narrow that all vital Trump aims to be directly projected in the White House. The Republican Party divides one huge package or a series of small legislation, whether it will pass Trump’s ambitious domestic policy agenda, including tax reductions, spending cuts, border security and deregulation.
The lack of progress in the front was frustrated by the major Republican Republican Party, which broke up this week with Trump and her colleagues at the presidential hotel in Miami this week.
Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA.) CEO said, “There is still no plan for budget adjustment even after two days at the Republican Winter Recreation Destination for two days at the Republican winter resort, and our team did not provide.
Meanwhile, Senate Republicans are pressing their plans, whether they are relatively joined in their homes. They will later extend Trump’s tax reduction and hope to pass a package that includes funds for border execution and energy production.
Candidate’Jeopardy ‘
Three of Trump’s cabinet candidates faced difficult questions at the National Assembly’s Parliament, and two of them (Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Tulsi Gabbard) are at risk of being blocked by the Senate.
Trump’s health minister, Kennedy, wanted to ensure that he would not oppose the vaccine despite the long record of spreading the wrong information about him. However, a Republican member of Louisiana’s Bill Catidy, a Republican member, was skeptical on Thursday.
After Kennedy refused to answer whether the vaccine caused autism, “This is a kind of example or no question. There is data. ”
Catidy is a doctor and chairman of the Senate Health Committee, and his opinion on the name can further shaken the fellow Republican Party. He is also a Crossed that has been convicted of his impeachment trial against his role in the US parliamentary assault on January 6, 2021.
But Louisiana Republican is facing pressure at home. He went up to re -election in 2026 and the Trump allies threatened to support his major challengers unless he voted to confirm the president’s candidate.
Trump’s candidate for the National Intelligence Service, Gabbard, also faced difficult questions from the Republican Party at a hearing before the Senate Information Committee.
Republican firefighters, which were rotated by former Democrats, did not satisfy several GOP Senators by refusing to call Edward Snowden “Trazer” to the National Security Bureau.
There will be four Republicans ‘NO’ votes on the bottom to prevent Trump’s place of nomination. Last week, Trump’s Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth was barely squeaky after three GOP Senators voted to him: Maine’s Susan Collins, Alaska’s Lisa Mercovski, Kentucky’s Mitch McConnell (Mitch Mcconnell) .
