Declaring a national emergency at the southern border

Trump ran on an anti-immigration stance, discussing ending birthright citizenship and planning sweeping deportations during his campaign. On Monday, Trump mentioned that he would declare a national emergency at the southern border of the U.S., halting immigration. Trump used the term "criminal aliens," which was stated several times in Project 2025 (the conservative policy wishlist for Trump's second term).

'Rescinding' the Green New Deal

The "Green New Deal" isn't the law of the land, despite efforts by progressive politicians in recent years. On Inauguration Day, however, Trump promised to "terminate" spending on the Green New Deal. Axious speculated that he meant Biden's Inflation Reduction Act, which did address climate change.

Make an official policy that there are "only" two genders

4. 'Bring back' freedom of speech

Trump said he'll sign an executive order to stop "government censorship" and "bring back free speech in America."

While it's not immediately clear what Trump means by this, page 687 of Project 2025 recommends Trump "[s]upport free speech and hold big tech accountable. Immediately conduct a thorough review of federal policy regarding free speech online and provide policy solutions to address big tech’s censorship of speech."

That was a pretty quick segue from "we're bringing back free speech and ending government censorship" to "here are the things government employees will be no longer allowed to say about sex, gender, and race."

Don’t get it twisted when trump says he wants to “bring back free speech” he means HIS type of free speech. Which is full of bullshit and misinformation

Project 2025 also calls for the removal of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies, which Trump also mentioned during Monday's speech:

5. Ending DEI policies

Trump called for an "end [to] the government policy of trying to socially engineer race and gender into every aspect of public and private life," an usher in a society that is "colorblind" and "merit-based."

People online retorted, saying such actions don't decrease inflation.
