Border Security and Energy Policy Initiatives
Dec, 27 2025
The U.S. Armed Forces, including the National Guard, are expected to assist in border security efforts, which the administration frames as a matter of national security. Additionally, President Trump intends to designate certain criminal organizations, such as the Tren de Aragua cartel, as foreign terrorist organizations, utilizing the Alien Enemies Act for their removal.
In terms of energy policy, President Trump aims to reverse regulations perceived as hindering energy production, including those related to climate change. The administration plans to streamline permitting processes and declare an energy emergency to facilitate infrastructure development. The President has also expressed intentions to withdraw from the Paris Climate Accord and to end leasing for large wind farms, arguing that these measures do not serve American energy consumers.
Furthermore, the administration is focused on government reform, proposing to limit bureaucratic hiring and rescind certain regulations introduced by the previous administration. President Trump emphasizes the need for accountability within government agencies and aims to address perceived censorship by federal employees. The administration's foreign policy is also framed as America-First, reflecting a shift in diplomatic priorities.
