CNN reported that on January 19, Mr. Donald Trump held his final rally before the inauguration with a series of strong commitments.
At his final rally at Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C., Donald Trump announced that TikTok was back in operation in the United States after the app shut itself down to avoid a ban that was scheduled to take effect on January 19.
“As of today, TikTok is back,” he declared, pledging to issue an executive order to delay the ban on TikTok immediately after his inauguration: “We have no choice, we have to save it.”
Mr Trump also took credit for the recent ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, which halted fighting and freed hostages. He called it “a major step toward lasting peace in the Middle East” and said: “This agreement was only possible because of our historic victory in November.”
Regarding the California wildfires, Mr. Trump expressed his sympathy and sent words of encouragement to the victims. He also announced plans to visit California on January 24: “I will be there to review the situation and help restore order.”
Donald Trump revealed plans to implement a series of executive orders on the first day of his second term, affirming that he will cancel "all extreme orders of President Joe Biden's administration within hours of being sworn in."
Donald Trump is expected to issue more than 200 executive orders on his first day in office, according to a source familiar with the matter, with a focus on border security issues including designating drug cartels as “foreign terrorist organizations,” declaring a state of emergency at the US-Mexico border and reinstating the “Remain in Mexico” policy.
Mr Trump's deportation plan has caused anxiety among the immigrant community, including those described as model citizens, long-term residents of the US, with spouses and children who are US citizens.
Ready for the inauguration
On January 20, President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden will host Donald Trump and Melania at the White House for a tea party before the two families travel to the Capitol for the inauguration ceremony, a gesture that Biden did not receive at his inauguration four years ago.
Ahead of the inauguration, Washington has tightened security, with 25,000 law enforcement officers deployed. Streets near the White House and the Capitol Building are blocked off with steel barriers.
The inauguration is scheduled to take place inside the Capitol building, instead of outdoors as originally planned due to cold weather.
