Trump is finishing the wall. After 450 miles were built first term, Trump has completed another 180 this term, with 750 more under construction.

β€œNo previous admin has attempted a wall of this scale”, says The Economist. The greatest federal project since the interstate highway. President Trump's border wall includes a primary and secondary layer, and the admin is adding hundreds of miles of waterborne barrier.

New tech and secure roads are being integrated. Altogether some 1,100 solid miles are in progress and 700 is still awarded as of Sept 9.

The Trump admin is escalating the deportation of Haitians.

Since the end of Haitian TPS, removal flights to Haiti have increased to a weekly pace. The Ohio Immigrant Alliance found 'detention of Haitians has surged 142%' in a few jails they surveyed, while arrests in Springfield now happen daily.

The Trump admin is demolishing the transgender industrial complex in America. Two more hospital systems have been forced to end their 'gender care services' for children. Several other institutions across the country have done the same since Trump took office.

Denmark and Greenland have entered into a deal with Trump's America for the U.S. to have "permanent control" of all security needs in Greenland, from basing and flight rights to the ability to build new installations without any non-American approval.

Neither Russia, China nor NATO are allowed to impede or sidestep the United States in Greenland under this deal.

Effective today, Trump has expanded the ground of public charge rejection to restrict many categories of immigrants who pose a past, present or potential burden and try to apply for admission or green card approval.

This brings us closer to the original 1882 standard, after it was narrowed in 1952 and 1999. Every Democrat state is trying to block it.

Stephen Miller:

You only have two choices. President Trump, or the Democrats who want to rip America apart. Every single Democrat in the House, except John Fetterman, has voted to defund ICE and Border Patrol. They voted to let open our border to every monster on the face of the Earth.

Democrat policies aren't just wrong. Their policies are evil. You cannot sit on the sidelines when we are trying to save this country from an agenda that is sinister and wicked and morally indefensible. You have to get up, you have to get out, you have to participate. If you are not going to support Trump, YOU are going to go back to getting mass migration and murder.

Trump won on Greenland.
When Trump proposed to purchase Greenland first term, Danish officials refused to engage.

This term, President Trump has pushed for ownership to a point Denmark could not ignore. Now, America's military authority over the territory will expand indefinitely. Art of the deal in action. America should still push to eventually take Greenland literally, though.

Trump's latest EO directs agencies to collect more data on H-1B applications and closely review employers for laying off American workers while seeking foreign replacements.

Trump has also renewed his original $100k fee while a separate $103k fee is proposed, and a $4k fee on certain H-1B extensions has taken effect. And the DHS plan to end the 60-day layoff grace period for work visas will include E-1, E-2, E-3, H-1B, H-1B1, L-1, O-1, and TN visas, who are expected to leave immediately upon losing their job.

That combined with the new fees and higher all-agencies-aboard scrutiny is a bureaucratic chokehold against foreign recruitment and Indian immigration.
