00:00:30.000 Donald Trump, who survived multiple assassination attempts and criminal prosecutions,
00:00:35.200 pulled off the most impressive political comeback in American history
00:00:39.520 when he took the oath of office on Monday.
00:00:42.920 During his inaugural address, he lambasted Joe Biden and Kamala Harris,
00:00:47.640 forcing them to sit through a list of their own failures.
00:00:50.880 The 47th president made sweeping promises,
00:00:54.400 including sending troops to secure the border,
00:00:57.260 returning manufacturing to the United States,
00:00:59.660 and avoiding unnecessary wars.
00:01:02.460 Everyone expected bold rhetoric,
00:01:04.660 but wondered if Trump could back it up with action.
00:01:07.840 And he did not disappoint.
00:01:10.540 After fulfilling his ceremonial duties and thanking his supporters,
00:01:14.600 Trump issued a flurry of executive orders.
00:01:16.900 He pardoned more than 1,500 individuals charged in a connection with the events of January 6, 2021,
00:01:23.940 some of whom remained in prison awaiting trial.
00:01:27.420 Many had faced nonviolent charges or had been investigated without even actually entering the Capitol.
00:01:34.220 Trump also withdrew the United States from the World Health Organization,
00:01:37.920 which he blamed for mishandling the COVID-19 pandemic.
00:01:41.620 In another order, he directed the federal government to recognize only two genders
00:01:46.740 and remove diversity, equity, and inclusion policies from relevant government agencies.
00:01:53.380 Immigrants at the southern border discovered that the CBP1 app,
00:01:58.020 used by the Biden administration to facilitate an invasion of the United States,
00:02:01.980 had been shut down.
00:02:03.380 News crews filmed migrants in tears after their screening appointments were canceled.
00:02:09.320 Meanwhile, Trump issued an order freezing federal civilian hiring
00:02:13.320 and designating foreign drug cartels operating in the United States as terrorist organizations.
00:02:19.560 He also imposed a 90-day pause on all foreign aid to reassess those programs.
00:02:24.660 Ideally, they'll be eliminated entirely.
00:02:26.840 Most significantly for the nation's future,
00:02:30.320 Trump signed an order to end the destructive practices of birthright citizenship.
00:02:36.160 Currently, anyone born on U.S. soil is automatically considered a citizen,
00:02:40.820 regardless of their parents' legal status.
00:02:43.120 But this was never the intention of the 14th Amendment,
00:02:45.740 which was ratified after the Civil War to clarify that freed slaves were in fact American citizens.
00:02:52.020 Under Trump's new directive,
00:02:53.440 if a child's parents are in the country illegally or only under temporary status,
00:02:58.820 the child will not be deemed a citizen.
00:03:01.360 The measure aims to end the anchor baby phenomenon,
00:03:04.320 in which foreign nationals enter into the country on a temporary visa,
00:03:07.980 have a child who becomes a citizen,
00:03:09.900 and then leverage that status to remain in the United States.
00:03:14.820 What's better than a well-marbled ribeye sizzling on the barbecue?
00:03:18.020 A well-marbled ribeye sizzling on the barbecue that was carefully selected by an Instacart shopper
00:03:23.720 and delivered to your door.
00:03:25.360 A well-marbled ribeye you ordered without even leaving the kiddie pool.
00:03:29.780 Whatever groceries your summer calls for,
00:03:32.120 Instacart has you covered.
00:03:33.920 Download the Instacart app and enjoy $0 delivery fees on your first three orders.
00:03:38.800 Service fees, exclusions, and terms apply.
00:03:41.480 Instacart.
00:03:42.400 Groceries that over-deliver.
00:03:43.980 This change is crucial because it dramatically affects voting patterns.
00:03:49.040 New immigrants tend to favor Democrats,
00:03:51.460 which is why the left pushes so hard for open borders.
00:03:55.080 Although illegal immigrants can't vote,
00:03:57.160 their children born on American soil gain citizenship.
00:04:01.120 Democrats were playing the long game,
00:04:02.940 hoping that a large influx of illegal immigrants
00:04:05.640 would translate into political victories later,
00:04:08.820 when those children came of age and started voting.
00:04:11.260 By restoring what he considers to be the 14th Amendment's intended meaning,
00:04:16.320 Trump has blocked this strategy,
00:04:18.480 making it more likely that Republicans will prevail in fair elections.
00:04:22.720 Trump's day one blitz of executive orders sends a strong message,
00:04:26.320 but it marks only the beginning.
00:04:28.260 The left remains stunned by his sweeping victory,
00:04:31.500 though its disorientation won't last forever.
00:04:34.900 Progressives have tried every tactic,
00:04:36.800 from labeling Trump a Nazi to attempting to bankrupt him,
00:04:40.440 remove him from the ballot,
00:04:41.900 imprison him, and even kill him.
00:04:43.940 All of these efforts have failed,
00:04:45.500 and the American people returned the billionaire to the White House
00:04:48.600 with a clear mandate.
00:04:50.660 Progressives continue their accusations of racism and fascism,
00:04:55.020 but the energy and power behind those charges have largely evaporated.
00:04:59.260 Trump must maintain an all-out offensive
00:05:01.800 while his opponents remain weak and demoralized.
00:05:04.960 Although executive orders can make a splash,
00:05:08.360 they can also be undone with the stroke of a pen.
00:05:11.600 The birthright citizenship question will head to the courts.
00:05:14.500 Opponents have already filed a raft of lawsuits,
00:05:17.160 and the administration must be ready to defend its position vigorously.
00:05:21.360 At the same time,
00:05:22.440 achieving lasting change through legislation is critical,
00:05:25.940 though the president will likely have to battle many members of his own party,
00:05:30.400 as often as he fights the Democrats.
00:05:32.120 In his first term,
00:05:33.660 Trump encountered constant opposition from personnel within his own executive agencies.
00:05:39.160 Now older and more experienced,
00:05:41.220 the president recognizes the importance of securing Senate confirmation
00:05:45.020 for key appointees to ensure his second administration's success.
00:05:50.460 Trump has also pledged to abolish certain government agencies,
00:05:53.920 such as the Department of Education,
00:05:55.640 and to implement major law enforcement steps,
00:05:58.200 including the mass deportation of illegal immigrants,
00:06:00.820 rapidly rolling out this agenda would give Democrats less time to recover
00:06:05.480 and limit the ability of a sympathetic media to manipulate public opinion.
00:06:10.920 Trump has made a very strong showing on his first day back in the White House.
00:06:16.460 The left remains stunned by the scope of the defeat that they've suffered
00:06:20.060 and can only offer modest resistance to his agenda.
00:06:24.200 Unlike his first term,
00:06:25.360 the president now has the benefit of powerful media and tech allies such as Elon Musk,
00:06:30.740 and a staff fully attuned to the obstacles that he faces.
00:06:34.820 The time for action is now.
00:06:37.260 If Trump maintains this rapid pace,
00:06:39.680 he's poised to be one of the most influential conservative presidents in American history.
00:06:45.520 But if he hesitates or loses focus,
00:06:47.760 the left will seize the opportunity to revive its own flagging movement.
