President Trump and his cabinet discussed the accomplishments of the first 100 days of his administration. Key points include:
- Border Security: Trump claims a 99.9% reduction in illegal border crossings, attributing this to effective leadership and policies. The administration designated cartels as foreign terrorist organizations, enhancing deportation efforts, with over 250 known terrorists and thousands of gang members deported.
- Economic Achievements: The administration secured $8 trillion in investments, driven by tariffs that encouraged companies like Samsung to build facilities in the U.S. The stock market’s performance reflects inherited challenges, but Trump highlights a turnaround, with significant job creation (e.g., 40,000 jobs from a chip company in Arizona).
- Deregulation and Government Efficiency: The administration is pursuing a massive deregulatory agenda, aiming to save $900 billion for American families. The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), led by Elon Musk, canceled $150 billion in contracts, targeting waste and fraud.
- Energy Policy: Declaring a national energy emergency, Trump reversed Biden’s policies, leading to lower oil, gas, and diesel prices. The U.S. is poised to lead in liquefied natural gas exports, with new deals in Europe to reduce reliance on Russian energy.
- Military and Veterans: Recruitment for the military surged, with waiting lists for the Army, Navy, and other branches. The VA is addressing veteran suicide, reducing disability claims by 40,000, and improving community care options.
- Foreign Policy: The administration secured the release of 47 wrongfully detained Americans and is negotiating trade deals with dozens of countries. A peace deal was signed between the Democratic Republic of Congo and another party, with potential for lasting impact.
- Health and Education: The HHS is banning synthetic food dyes and revising dietary guidelines to improve school lunches. The Education Department reduced its workforce by 50%, returned control to states, and resumed student loan collections.
- Crime and Justice: The DOJ seized 4200 kilos of fentanyl, saving an estimated 258 million lives, and confiscated 14,000 illegal guns. The administration is pursuing the death penalty for severe crimes and addressing antisemitism and human trafficking.
- Housing and Small Business: HUD is prioritizing American citizens for subsidized housing and cutting red tape to boost affordability. The SBA reported a 54% increase in startups and a 95% rise in small businesses, with 2600 loans issued.
- Environmental Policy: The EPA ended the Green New Deal, focusing on balancing environmental protection with economic growth, and canceled $100 million in grants.
Trump emphasizes the administration’s fearless approach, contrasting it with the perceived failures of the Biden administration, particularly on border security, inflation, and foreign policy. The cabinet meeting showcased a unified team, with each member highlighting specific achievements aligned with Trump’s “America First” agenda. The session concluded with Trump expressing pride in the team and optimism for even greater success in the next 100 days.
