Trump continues blizzard of executive orders

Europe Editor and Presenter

Donald Trump is ploughing on with his shock and awe blizzard of executive actions. So far today, he’s suspended all travel to the US by refugees with permission to enter – leaving thousands stranded.

He’s threatened Russia with tariffs, temporarily gagged health agencies and sidelined around 160 National Security Council staffers.

Federal agencies now have less than three hours to put all diversity staff on paid leave and the president is pressuring the private sector to dismantle their diversity programmes.

This after announcing that he’s ploughing billions into AI, but taking it away from Green energy.
