True to his word prior to his inauguration as the 47th United Stares president, Donald Trump hit the ground running as he took the reins of power from President Joe Biden.

This is as the new US president announced the dismissal of four senior government officials appointed by his predecessor, Joe Biden, and hinted that more such actions are imminent.

He made this announcement in his first Truth Social post since his inauguration as the 47th President of the United States.

“Our first day in the White House is not over yet! My Presidential Personnel Office is actively in the process of identifying and removing over a thousand Presidential Appointees from the previous administration.”

The post, titled “YOU’RE FIRED,” named the dismissed officials: Jose Andres from the President’s Council on Sports, Fitness and Nutrition; Mark Milley from the National Infrastructure Advisory Council; Brian Hook from the Wilson Center for Scholars; and Keisha Lance Bottoms from the President’s Export Council. Trump declared the post to serve as their “Official Notice of Dismissal.”

Trump’s return to office has been marked by a flurry of executive actions aimed at reversing Biden-era policies.

The sweeping changes are swift in a manner that shows that Trump is bent on clearing his administration of the vestiges of the Biden’s

Among his notable moves was a regulatory freeze, halting the issuance of any new regulations until his administration fully takes control.

Additionally, he signed an order requiring all federal officials to return to full-time, in-office work.

Trump also suspended 78 executive orders issued by Biden’s administration.
The President made clear his intention to follow through on his campaign pledges, including reducing civil service roles and enhancing government efficiency.

In his 29-minute inauguration speech, Trump described his vision for a “Golden Age” for the United States.

He criticized the Biden administration as “radical and corrupt,” accusing it of being incapable of managing domestic crises, referencing the Los Angeles wildfire as an example.

Several government institutions are now bracing for significant upheaval in the coming weeks as the Trump administration moves to implement further campaign promises, including potential department closures.

To many observers, Trump’s aggressive start signals a decisive shift in governance and sets the stage for a controversial and transformative term in office.
