Summary

Trump’s new presidency has unleashed a series of aggressive orders that have reshaped the federal government.

Rapid purges have targeted senior officials and civil servants, aiming to remove anyone deemed insufficiently loyal to his agenda.

Key measures include canceling diversity programs, dismantling independent inspectors, and attempting to seize control over trillions in government spending from Congress.

Despite some pushback and legal challenges, these moves reflect a broader strategy to concentrate power, potentially undermining democratic checks and balances and reshaping the US government’s structure.

These actions risk significant long-term institutional damage.
