In the first 100 days of his second term, President Donald Trump took a series of controversial actions, signing 144 executive orders, surpassing any previous president in this period. These orders focused on issues such as immigration, where he launched a wide-scale deportation campaign for illegal immigrants, and redefined some environmental policies by withdrawing from the Paris Climate Agreement. He also granted clemency to about 1,500 individuals connected to the Capitol riots on January 6, 2021. Internationally, he froze foreign aid for 90 days for review and reclassified Cuba as a state sponsor of terrorism. These policies faced widespread legal and public resistance, sparking a heated debate about the future of American democracy.
