Trump revealed the first steps after the inauguration: from deportations to TikTok

Newly elected US President Donald Trump said that he plans to sign a “record” number of executive orders after taking office. He also noted that mass deportations and a trip to Los Angeles to assess wildfire damage would be key items on the agenda in the first week of his presidency. Writes UNN with reference to NBS News.

Trump has said mass deportation of illegal immigrants will be one of his top priorities. He did not specify the date or place of the start of these activities, but noted that they will begin in the near future.

It will start very early, very soon. I cannot say in which cities, because the situation is changing. And I don’t think we want to say in which city. You will see it with your own eyes. We must expel criminals from our country. And I think you will agree with that. I don’t know how you can disagree with that

Trump said he has not yet decided on the exact number of executive orders he will sign after taking office, but expects it to be “a record number.” Asked if there would be more than 100, he said: “Well, at least in that range.”

“We have a record number of documents that I will sign right after the inaugural speech,” Trump emphasized.

As for TikTok, the ban on the popular video app will go into effect on Sunday after the Supreme Court approved a bipartisan bill requiring Beijing-based parent company ByteDance to sell the app to a buyer with no ties to China.

President Joe Biden’s administration has said it will not implement the ban, leaving its implementation to the discretion of Donald Trump, who will take office the next day.

In a comment to NBC News, Trump said he was considering delaying the ban for 90 days.

I think that’s definitely an option we’ll look at. A 90-day extension is something that will most likely be done because it is appropriate. You know, it’s appropriate. We have to look at it carefully. This is a very big situation. If I decide to do it, I’ll probably announce it on Monday

Trump also said he plans to visit Los Angeles next week to assess the effects of the wildfires. He noted that his team will analyze the situation from different “points of view” and added that measures to redirect water from the north to lower California will be considered.

According to him, the trip will “probably” take place at the end of the week.

“I was going to go, actually, yesterday, but I thought it would be better if I go as the president. I think it will be more appropriate,” he added.

He said he has not yet spoken to California Gov. Gavin Newsom.

On Saturday, the Israeli government approved a ceasefire and hostage exchange. Under the terms of the agreement, 33 Israeli hostages held in Gaza will be released in exchange for 1,904 Palestinian prisoners and detainees.

Asked by NBC News about his confidence in the deal, Trump said: “Well, we’ll find out very soon, and it’s better that it happens.”

He also said he told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu: “Just keep doing what you have to do. You have to – this has to end. We want it to end, but keep doing what has to be done

Trump said he plans to meet with Netanyahu “fairly soon,” but did not reveal any details about that meeting.

He also noted that his administration will monitor the observance of the ceasefire, stressing that this will be done by an “effective government”.

The newly elected president emphasized that the US must immediately win the respect of the world and will work on it:

“Respect. The United States needs to earn respect again, and it needs to be earned quickly. Respect is the main word I use,” he said. “If they respect us, it will continue. If they don’t respect us, all hell will break loose.”

We will remind

Ahead of Donald Trump’s inauguration in Washington, snipers were deployed, explosives and radiation detectors were installed, and security was provided by thousands of military and police officers. The city center is closed, and every guest goes through strict checks.

UNN told who will work on creating security during one of the large-scale events of the year.
