As February 20, 2025 marks one month since Donald Trump was inaugurated as the 47th President of the United States, the White House under the new administration is taking stock of the work that has been accomplished so far.
The list includes, among others, a series of executive orders such as the US withdrawal from the World Health Organization, the declaration of a national emergency at the borders, the suspension of funds to USAID, the overhaul of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), etc.
The White House mentions: “The list below is in no way exhaustive, but provides a snapshot of the remarkable work completed by the Trump White House”.
EXECUTIVE ORDERS
Signed a historic number executive orders, thereby keeping key promises made on the campaign trail, including:
Withdrawing the US from the World Health Organization, which mishandled the COVID-19 pandemic that killed millions and was receiving 90% more funding from the US than China, despite China having a population 300% larger than that of the US.
Creating a sovereign wealth fund to better invest the $5.7 trillion in assets directly held by the US.
Ordered an examination of all regulations from executive departments and agencies to assess any infringements on Second Amendment rights. 
THE BORDER
Declared a national border emergency, allowing DoD to deploy roughly 5,000 National Guard and active-duty military to secure the southern border and signed the Laken Riley Act into law.
Only 582 encounters across the southern border on Jan. 26, down from 12,600 migrant encounters on Dec. 18, 2023 — a decrease of ~95.4%.THE ECONOMY

A slew of pediatric hospitals stopped or downsized their sex-change programs for minors following POTUS’s “Protecting Children from Chemical and Surgical Mutilation” executive order including, but not limited to, Chicago Lurie Children’s Hospital, Denver Health, UCHealth, and Children’s National Hospital.
FEMA
Overrode environmental red tape limiting water availability in California following the state’s water system’s role in allowing the devastating wildfires to proliferate.
Traveled to North Carolina to visit with the victims of Hurricane Helene and promised to overhaul FEMA following instances of the agency prioritizing social justice and aid to illegal migrants over protecting Americans from natural disasters. NONCOMPLIANCE CRACKDOWNS

HOSTAGE RELEASES
Secured release of Pennsylvania teacher Marc Fogel from Russian captivity. Fogel had been held in Russia since 2021, with the Biden administration securing the release of Brittney Griner before Fogel, despite Fogel being incarcerated before Griner for a similar infraction.
Hamas freed three more Israeli hostages Saturday (2/15) after previously saying it would delay the releases. The change in Hamas’s stance comes after POTUS said “all hell is going to break out” if Hamas delayed the hostage releases.MORE…
Secured the resignations of over 75,000 federal workers – roughly 3.75% of the federal workforce, with Judge George O’Toole permitting the deferred resignation program to roll forward.
Defunded USAID, thereby ensuring US taxpayer dollars will no longer go to items such as Iraqi Sesame Street ($20 million), sex changes and “LGBT activism” in Guatemala ($2 million) and “oral contraceptives and condoms” in Taliban-controlled Afghanistan ($15 million, per non-public documents reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon).
