Shit's about to pop off, but we don't know exactly what the orders are yet. I figure we could collect them in a single post and discuss as they come out.

Edit: Official link for orders: https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/

"RESTORING FREEDOM OF SPEECH AND ENDING FEDERAL CENSORSHIP"

https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/restoring-freedom-of-speech-and-ending-federal-censorship/

This is largely the no-more moderating hate speech order, but this bit is pretty sweeping: "The Attorney General, in consultation with the heads of executive departments and agencies, shall investigate the activities of the Federal Government over the last 4 years that are inconsistent with the purposes and policies of this order and prepare a report to be submitted to the President, through the Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy, with recommendations for appropriate remedial actions to be taken based on the findings of the report."

The Attorney General's office is going to be busy as hell keeping up with all these wide-scale audits of Biden's regime that pretty much every order calls for. Altogether, these orders point to sweeping retaliation within the fed for the past four years, and an explicit threat to get in line for the next four. Not unexpected, of course.

Bit idea: we just spam "crakkker house" nonstop on White House social media, then sue the government when we get banned for comically large amounts of money.

Defending Women From Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government

“Sex” shall refer to an individual’s immutable biological classification as either male or female.

Each agency and all Federal employees shall enforce laws governing sex-based rights, protections, opportunities, and accommodations to protect men and women as biologically distinct sexes.

The Secretaries of State and Homeland Security, and the Director of the Office of Personnel Management, shall implement changes to require that government-issued identification documents, including passports, visas, and Global Entry cards, accurately reflect the holder’s sex

The Attorney General and Secretary of Homeland Security shall ensure that males are not detained in women’s prisons or housed in women’s detention centers

The Attorney General shall ensure that the Bureau of Prisons revises its policies concerning medical care to be consistent with this order, and shall ensure that no Federal funds are expended for any medical procedure, treatment, or drug for the purpose of conforming an inmate’s appearance to that of the opposite sex.

Agencies shall effectuate this policy by taking appropriate action to ensure that intimate spaces designated for women, girls, or females (or for men, boys, or males) are designated by sex and not identity.

agency-imposed requirements on federally funded entities, including contractors, to achieve the policy of this order.

Laws are fake they just make that shit up

Lmao DODGE is just renaming the IT department

The United States Digital Service is hereby publicly renamed as the United States DOGE Service (USDS) and shall be established in the Executive Office of the President.

[-] JohnBrownsBussy2@hexbear.net 54 points 1 day ago

I think it's more of trying hijack an existing agency since a new one would require congressional approval.

[-] KinglyWeevil@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 day ago

This reminds me of my city building a new building downtown but not needing a new building permit by just "remodeling" by leaving one of the original walls standing until the other three had been completed.

To a degree, yes, but they don't directly have any control over the budget. It's a compromise to the nerds.

It's like the predictable outcome from Obama. It doesn't even feel real. I think I'm actually derealizing right now. This shit is going to make shit so awful.

Immigration blocked

Section 1. Suspension of Entry. I hereby proclaim, pursuant to sections 212(f) and 215(a) of the INA, 8 U.S.C. 1182(f) and 1185(a), that the entry into the United States on or after the date of this order of aliens engaged in the invasion across the southern border is detrimental to the interests of the United States. I therefore direct that entry into the United States of such aliens be suspended until I issue a finding that the invasion at the southern border has ceased.

Is anything even going to get done with all the government agencies doing audit after audit over the next four years?

Honestly, I think that's the point.

Birthright citizenship ended.

[-] ThermonuclearEgg@hexbear.net 75 points 1 day ago

Is that even possible, or are they just going to go back to deporting legal citizens? The Constitution has a 14th Amendment

My guess is they're going to try to deport legal citizens.

republicans run on horrible shit and actually enact it, and their base takes it as "they're doing this for me so-true " even tho this shit is entirely self-serving to the donor class and their dumb ass base was just tricked into thinking it's good for them too

democrats will barely ever even run on anything good let alone enact anything good for their base. and they wonder why they cant get votes.

"Merit" will be the guiding principle of government hiring...

DOGE is officially going to become a department...?

These are so stupid.

[-] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 43 points 1 day ago

I’m unironically angry at dems for being such good sports about all this. Come on, y’all should have crashed out. If Trump is a fascist (which he is), Biden should have ran crying to Xi Jinping to defend the country from fascism.

[-] barrbaric@hexbear.net 45 points 1 day ago

The courts made it legal for Biden to extrajudicially drone strike Trump and every single Republican, but he didn't do it because, as always, when it comes down to it the liberals will side with the fascists.

[-] fox@hexbear.net 27 points 1 day ago

Not even extrajudicial at that just plain legal
