From Washington: President Trump's Disruptive Second Term

from The Fox News Rundown · host FOX News Podcasts

President Trump was elected as a change agent who ran on a platform to rethink and reshape the role of the federal government. One week into his second administration, President Trump signed executive orders to eliminate diversity, equity, and inclusion offices. Meanwhile, the new Department of Government Efficiency is eyeing even bigger cuts. FOX News Washington-based correspondent Mark Meredith shares his reporting on the administration's disruptive approach and explains how jobs will look differently in the federal workforce. President Trump campaigned heavily on ending the war in Ukraine, going so far as to say he believed he would "have that done in 24 hours" while on the campaign trail. Though this did not happen during the President's first week in office, he has begun putting pressure on Russian President Vladimir Putin -- threatening taxes, tariffs, and sanctions if the Russian President doesn't come to the negotiating table. National Security Analyst and Vice President of Defense at the Lexington Institute, Dr. Rebecca Grant weighs in on how effective she believes President Trump will be in putting an end to this years-long conflict and the likelihood of Ukraine becoming a member of NATO.
