President-elect Donald Trump has around 100 executive orders to enact as soon as he takes office, a Republican senator said on Thursday after GOP lawmakers held meetings with the incoming president’s team.

“He says he has almost 100 executive orders that will go a long way to securing the border again, and also put the energy sector back in play,” Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-Okla.) told “Fox & Friends” on Thursday.
Mullin did not elaborate on the exact nature of the orders or how quickly they would be implemented, although Trump has vowed to have a robust first day and to issue a variety of border- and immigration-related executive actions as soon as he takes office.

After his election win in November, Trump said that he would declare a national emergency over illegal immigration in order to initiate mass deportations, first targeting people who are unauthorized to be in the United States and who also have criminal convictions.
During his campaign, Trump also often repeated the “drill, baby, drill,” campaign slogan in saying he wants to roll back regulations around drilling for oil and natural gas in a bid to lower costs.

“I will sign Day One orders to end all Biden restrictions on energy production, terminate his insane electric vehicle mandate, cancel his natural gas export ban, reopen ANWR in Alaska—the biggest site, potentially anywhere in the world—and declare a national energy emergency,” Trump said during an event last month.


But Mullin cautioned that the executive orders can be easily undone by a future presidential administration and that Congress needs to act on border security.

“As he said, it’s not permanent,” Mullin said. “I would like reconciliation so we can start making this stuff into legislation, so we can move forward.”

The Epoch Times contacted the Trump transition team for comment on Thursday, but didn’t hear back by publication time.

“The president was very clear, he wants results,” Mullin told Fox News. “He said he can wait if we can do one big, beautiful bill. He'd like to have one big, beautiful, beautiful bill. But if the House were to get bogged down, maybe we have to divide it up in two.”

The senator was making reference to comments made by Trump this week after he met with Republicans in Washington.

“I think there’s a lot of talk about two [bills], and there’s a lot of talk about one (bill), but it doesn’t matter,” Trump told reporters.
“The end result is the same,” he said, adding that his meeting with GOP lawmakers showed the party is ”unified.”

Mullin added that Republicans need to “deliver for the American people on securing the border, on energy independence, on getting the regulations rolled back and making sure that we have taxes that are permanent, so we don’t have a $4 trillion tax increase on the American people right now.”

Pedo-Joe's executive order is meaningless and stupid. President Trump can simply sign another EO reversing it. What Biden's handlers are doing is the equivalent of leaving a rented house dirty and trash bags all over the place. It is childish and accomplishes nothing other than wasting President Trump's time getting the house in order again.

Standard Democrat stampy-feet temper tantrums. Remember, when George W. Bush took office the Klintonistas pryed all the "w" keys off all the computer keyboards, so they all had to be replaced. It's a hoot they call themselves the "adults."

I'd snicker and give them points for creativity, but that was still childish, wasteful, and uncalled for.

Yep, I was thinking about that too. I think the emotional immaturity is what keeps the administrative rank-and-file liberals, even when they are otherwise intelligent.

Very true.

I didn't mean imply that all, or even most, leftists are intelligent. They aren't.

No, I don't believe that is the case. Have you done the research on this? I believe I heard Shapiro say at the time Biden made this EO that the Supreme Court ruled that, with respect to this issue, a President cannot simply reverse it.

Why Trump cannot just unilaterally "unban" FJB's drilling ban order explained HERE.

quote:

The executive order, issued under the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act (OCSLA), seeks to block future oil and natural gas leasing along the East and West coasts, the eastern Gulf of Mexico and portions of Alaska's Northern Bering Sea.

Trump said that he "has the right" to reverse such an action, but given that Biden issued the order under a 1953 law that allows the president to enact bans on oil and gas development, he would not be able to simply reverse it.

In 2019, during Trump's first term, a federal judge ruled that OCSLA does not permit presidents to overturn bans established by previous administrations. This means Trump would need congressional approval to reverse Biden's decision.

That is unfortunate and no, I didn't realize the exception. Thank you both for letting me know.

It may take a little longer now to repair the economy, but I expect a "Republican" majority in the House and Senate to move quickly to scoop up Biden's latest dump on the living room floor.

Merchan is such a coward. He knows this wasn't a case. But he didn't have the backbone to dismiss and hoped this would be "light enough" to prevent the President from appealing it. The Left just wanted to be able to say "convicted". I agree that the President should appeal and it will be quickly overturned in a real court.

^^^ Exactly that. The son of a bitch wanted Trump to bear the mark of a "convicted" felon, with this sentencing, prior to taking office.

It's maddening to watch the Left accuse President Trump of being a fascist while the Left shows itself to be fascist to the core, over and over, and is never called out for it because they own most of the legacy media.
