The Daily Signal - Trump’s Immigration Orders, Rubio Sworn In, Bishop’s Woke Warning | Jan. 21, 2025

President Donald Trump made good on his promise to take action to secure the border on Day One of his administration with 10 executive orders. The ink was barely dry Tuesday when 18 state attorneys general filed a lawsuit over his order to end universal birthright citizenship.


Marco Rubio was the first Trump nominee to secure Senate confirmation Monday night on a vote of 99-0. The former Florida senator was sworn in as secretary of state Tuesday by Vice President JD Vance.


Episcopal Bishop Mariann Budde of Washington lectured Trump and Vance on being kind to transgender people and immigrants at Tuesday’s National Prayer Service.


Additional headlines:


• Congressman Andy Biggs, a former chairman of the House Freedom Caucus, announced Tuesday that he’s exploring a run for governor of Arizona.

• Ryan Corbett‘s 894-day captivity in Afghanistan is coming to an end. His family announced Tuesday that he was freed by the Taliban, hours after President Trump was sworn into office.

• The Ohio State Buckeyes won the college football playoff national championship Monday night, defeating the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, 34-23. But it’s what happened after the game that’s making news.

Amicus With Dahlia Lithwick | Law, justice, and the courts - Preview: Deciphering The Lawlessness of Trump’s Executive Orders

Some very clear themes are already emerging from President Donald Trump’s executive orders; cruel, chaotic, and fear-stoking - yes, but also - they’re rife with shoddy drafting (is that you, ChatGPT?), sloppy lawyering, and some are wildly unconstitutional. In an extra episode of Amicus for plus members, Dahlia Lithwick and Mark Joseph Stern begin the work of parsing a few of the many, many executive orders raining down on America in the hours since Trump assumed office for the second time.

1A - ‘If You Can Keep It’: Trump’s Flurry Of Executive Orders

President Donald Trump issued a sweeping pardon of January 6 rioters within hours of taking office. The move came among dozens of other executive actions concerning things like remote work and immigration.

Trump took time to talk about those orders in his inauguration remarks, saying, "With these actions, we will begin the complete restoration of America and the revolution of common sense."

The president is making good on repeated promises for what aides called "shock and awe" on his first day. We break down what this slew of orders means for the U.S.

The Bulwark Podcast - Tom Nichols: A Farce and a Sham

Trump tried to pencil out literal words in the Constitution and then freed 1,500 violent insurrectionists—while the media attempted to normalize it all. Meanwhile, much attention is being paid to Elon's salute, and not enough to the facts that he has an office at the White House, he's a government contractor, and paid a quarter of a billion dollars to get Trump elected. Plus, other Trump executive orders were pissy and petty, the 80s can no longer be called the decade of greed after Monday's Hunger Games vibe, and the Democrats are going to have a hard time resisting a risky 'eat the rich' path.

Tom Nichols joins Tim Miller.
