“On the Holmes Front” with Frank Holmes
President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, and an array of anonymous secretaries, staffers, and surrogates spent four years throttling the U.S. economy, spiking prices, and rolling out the welcome mat for Central American drug cartels.
President Donald Trump has spent less than four days in office—and he’s already done more for the American people than his predecessor.
After winning the popular vote and the Electoral College, Trump said he would run his second administration by a simple watch word: “Promises made, promises kept.”
Trump wasted no time and started signing executive orders right in Capital One Arena in front of his supporters—sometimes throwing them a pen in the process.
Trump broke the record for the most executive orders signed on his first day– more than 200 executive actions on Monday alone, according to ABC News.
His orders covered every campaign promise Trump made: lowering costs, beefing up border security, and earning greater respect for America on the world stage.
Trump won the 2024 election in large part due to his promise to take back control of America’s borders, which illegal aliens at least a record-breaking 10 million times over the last four years.
The open border “led to untold hundreds of thousands of children being trafficked,” as well as fentanyl and other drugs “pouring over the border and flooding our communities, killing roughly 75,000 Americans in 2023,” and allowing “dangerous gangs like the Venezuelan Tren de Aragua to takeover and terrorize entire American cities,” according to a fact sheet produced by the Trump White House.
“And it has led to the murders of innocent Americans like Laken Riley, Jocelyn Nungaray, Rachel Morin, and many others.”
That’s why, on day one, Donald Trump declared a national emergency at the southern border.
The executive order lets the president send military personnel to gain operational control of the border, partner with local law enforcement who want to lend a hand, and repurpose funding to build the big, beautiful wall on the border at long last.
Trump went on to send 1,500 troops—including four Air Force aircraft—to America’s southern border with Mexico.
The mass deportations of criminal aliens—which practically came to an end under his predecessor—also ramped up again.
Raids carried out by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) nabbed 308 criminal aliens on the first day alone, including an attempted murderer and a child molester.
Some of them have been outspoken about their hatred for America’s new president—and their support for two of his Democratic predecessors.
“F*** Trump!” he screamed into the camera. “Biden forever, Bro! Thank Obama for everything he did for me, Bro!”
This illegal says he’ll never go back to Haiti.
And then yells “Fuck Trump!”
Well, Mr. Haitian, you are going back.
Probably on the top of the list now!pic.twitter.com/IdQnPAUYSQ

Trump went further, wiping out Biden-era policies that invited illegal aliens to stream across the Rio Grande into the United States.
He ended catch-and-release and reinstated the Remain in Mexico policy, which ends the abuse of the U.S. asylum system that coyotes have chosen as their preferred U.S. weakness.
He designated the human traffickers and drug cartels who controlled the entrance to the U.S. as foreign terrorist groups, allowing the U.S. military to do everything necessary to hunt them down—at home or abroad.
But Trump didn’t stop working for the American people when he finished getting border policy right.
The economy became one of the most important issues in the 2024 election—and Trump heard the voters’ cry.
President Trump directed every single leader of any federal agency to come up with a plan to increase U.S. energy production—to, as he puts it, “Drill baby drill!”—as well as increase jobs and wages while cutting taxes and fees.
He’s declared war on the Green New Deal and said Americans can keep their gas ovens and internal combustion engines.
The left-wing, socialist scam known as “Diversity Equity and Inclusion” (DEI) drove voters to the polls—and now it’s driving federal employees to the unemployment line.
Trump issued an executive order closing every single DEI office—and firing every diversity hire promoting DEI teachings—in the entire federal government.
He ended reverse discrimination, known as “affirmative action,” in jobs, federal contracts, and college admissions—replacing racism with merit-based hiring.
🚨OPM sends an anti-DEI notice to heads of federal agencies: “Each should take prompt actions regarding the offices & agency sub-units focusing exclusively on DEIA initiatives… Send an agency-wide notice… asking employees if they know of any efforts to disguise these programs.” pic.twitter.com/d3ZdzDSzUu

President Trump set up the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, headed by Elon Musk, to save taxpayers heard-earned money.
He paused resettling “refugees” from around the world until he can get them properly vetted—and he ended all foreign aid to those refugees’ home countries until it properly reflects U.S. priorities.
He also ended gender insanity, saying in writing that it is American policy that there are only two genders, and they’re determined by your DNA, not your feelings.
President Trump has taken on foreign drug cartels, high prices, Woke activists, and the Resistance inside the Deep State—and he’s winning, for us.
