President Donald Trump signed a barrage of executive actions hours after his inauguration on Jan. 20.

He signed orders to rescind dozens of executive actions from former President Joe Biden, improve border security and clamp down on illegal immigration, ramp up energy production, federally define gender, and give the social media platform TikTok 75 days to find a U.S.-based buyer before yielding to a federal ban.
