Following Trump’s threat of sweeping tariffs, Colombian President Gustavo Petro has stated that he will accept two military planes, despite his original refusal.
Trump resisted issuing additional executive orders over the weekend, following a rush of them in his first two days, which are detailed here.
Although his fast and expansive executive orders have the force of law, they are more readily revoked. Some are challenged in court.
Trump signed another executive order mandating that the government “suspends the physical entry of aliens engaged in an invasion of the United States through the southern border” following his initial round of executive orders. Officials must “immediately repel, repatriate, and remove” those people, according to the directive.
“America’s sovereignty is under attack,” is what Trump has declared.
