On Thursday night, President Donald Trump signed several executive actions that are drawing attention.
Here are some key highlights:
Addressing Anti-Christian Bias: One major action involves the formation of a new task force aimed at eliminating anti-Christian bias in the federal government. Trump stated that his administration would not allow any government practices that discriminate against Christians.
He emphasized the importance of protecting the rights of Americans to practice their faith freely. The task force is set to be led by Pam Bondi, the new attorney general.
Reviewing NGO Funding: Trump also signed a memo to review federal funding for non-governmental organizations (NGOs). This step is part of a broader initiative to reassess how the government spends taxpayer money.
Sanctions Against the International Criminal Court: Another significant action targets the International Criminal Court (ICC). Trump introduced measures that may block properties and assets of those involved with the ICC, especially in relation to their investigations into U.S. citizens and allies.
This includes imposing sanctions on ICC officials and their families if they pursue investigations against Americans. The move comes after the ICC issued warrants for senior Israeli officials.
