In a decisive move, President Trump signed multiple executive orders that terminate diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives within the military, bar transgender individuals from serving, and reinstate service members discharged for refusing the COVID-19 vaccine, including back pay. Under newly appointed Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, the Pentagon must revise its transgender policy and report on DEI compliance. Additionally, Trump's administration has ramped up immigration enforcement, resulting in over 3,500 arrests in just one week. Immigration authorities are also facing lawsuits from religious groups opposing new policy allowing searches in sensitive areas.
