Trump To Declare National Emergency At Us-mexico Border As Part Of Day One Executive Actions – Live

President-elect expected to sign several executive actions immediately after taking office

• Biden pardons Fauci and Milley in effort to guard against potential ‘revenge’ by Trump
• Trump inauguration: what to know and how to watch it

My colleague Joseph Gedeon in Washington DC also had this look at what Trump might have planned for day one:

In the grand theatre of American politics, presidential inaugurations typically follow a familiar script: the oath, the speech, a few carefully chosen executive orders to satisfy campaign promises. Franklin D Roosevelt used his first day to tackle the banking crisis. Barack Obama moved to close Guantánamo Bay (though it remains open). Donald Trump’s first term began with a single executive order targeting Obamacare. Joe Biden signed 17 executive orders on his first day in 2021.
