Former President Donald Trump has once again taken center stage in the political arena with a series of sweeping executive orders that have drawn both support and sharp criticism. Among the most controversial is his directive recognizing only two genders—male and female—in federal matters, which advocates say undermines LGBTQ+ rights. Critics argue that this order, seen as a bid to solidify his political base, could have lasting ramifications for gender identity recognition nationwide.
In a parallel move, Trump issued an executive order promoting oil and gas drilling in Alaska, which has quickly garnered praise from state officials. Supporters laud the potential economic benefits, while environmentalists decry the decision, fearing ecological repercussions.
Furthermore, the former president has made waves in the tech sector, directing the U.S. Digital Service to develop a regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies including Dogecoin. Partnering with tech mogul Elon Musk, Trump aims to position the U.S. at the forefront of digital finance.
These orders mark a significant return to form for Trump, as he leverages executive power to shape contentious issues, including climate policies and social norms, ahead of the looming 2024 presidential campaign. As reactions pour in, the nation braces for yet another divisive chapter in Trump’s political saga.
