President Donald Trump took office on Jan. 20 and since then he has made a lot of changes to government policies and governed in his own way. He has signed several executive orders and made changes to a lot policies and frameworks designed by the former administration. Trump will also become the first president since Ronald Reagan to skip the White House Correspondents' Dinner on April 29 . He also gained one of his major political victories when his pick Neil Gorsuch was selected to the Supreme Court. Trump will complete his first 100 days as president, Saturday. Here’s a list of some of the major things that the 45th U.S. president has done till now.

Mexico border wall

Trump issued Executive Order 13767 on Jan. 25, addressing directive to the Department of Homeland Security to begin Construction of a wall on the Mexico – U.S. border. Talking about the funding for the wall, Press Secretary Sean Spicer announced a day later that it would be financed by imposing an excess tax of 20% on Mexican imports. But the President seemed to soften on the plan and agreed to be content with an increase in finds for the border security on April 24. But the next day itself he reassured those in favor of the wall, “The wall’s going to get built, folks.”

Michael Flynn, former National Security Adviser’s resignation

Former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn resigned from his office on Feb. 13 after his connections with the Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak were uncovered. He was deemed vulnerable to blackmail by the Kremlin.

Flynn had lied to other top officials at the White House about his contacts with the Russian Ambassador on Dec. 29, the very same day when the U.S had issued new sanctions on Moscow for their interference in the 2016 presidential elections.

Travel Ban

As soon as Trump took office as president he put up an aggressive front against any issue that would terrorize or make the people insecure. He took some bold moves in the process. While on a visit to the Pentagon, president Trump signed the Executive order 13769 that suspended the Refugee Admissions Program for the next 120 days and repudiating entry of anyone bearing a visa from Iraq, Iran, Libya, Sudan, Syria, and for those from Yemen for 90 days.

He signed the Executive Order 13780, a revised version, on March 6, deemed to be effective from March 16. The new version excluded lawful permanent residents from the ban and removed Iraq from the list. The proposal of the travel ban faced criticism and injunctions throughout its course. The U.S Department of Justice on March 30 announced that they will contest the injunctions to carry on with the policy.

Airstrikes in Syria

The United States fired about 60 Tomahawk missiles into the government-controlled Shayrat air base in Syria, after President Donald Trump ordered the attack. The move was in retaliation to the deadly chemical gas attack against civilians in Idlib province that claimed the lives of over 100 people and left 300 wounded.

"Tonight I ordered a targeted military strike on the airfield in Syria from where the chemical attack was launched," the president announced from his Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida, where he was meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping. "It is in this vital national security interest of the United States to prevent and deter the spread and use of deadly chemical weapons."

Budget Proposal

Trump’s proposed budget asked the State Department to cut more than 50 percent of funding to United Nations programs. The budget could likely see a 37 percent cut to the State Department and U.S. Agency for International Development budgets. With his proposed budget, the president wants to boost military spending by $54 billion and is seeking equivalent cuts in nondefense discretionary programs, according to Reuters.

Under the Trump administration, only three agencies —Defense, Homeland Security and Veterans Affairs are reportedly getting a boost, according to CNN.

U.S.-Russia Probe

Trump’s presidential campaign team was under enquiry for having links with the Russians. Trump’s campaign manager Paul Manafort and some other members were in touch with Russian intelligence. Attorney General Jeff Sessions is known to have had meetings with Sergey Kislyak, the Russian Ambassador, while Sessions was the foreign policy advisor to Trump.

“[The FBI is] investigating the nature of any links between individuals associated with the Trump campaign and the Russian government and whether there was any coordination between the campaign and Russia’s efforts,” said FBI Director James Comey confirming that Trump’s team in under scrutiny for links to Russia.

U.S.-China relations

The Chinese President Xi Jinping visited the U.S. from Aril 6 to April 7 for his first meeting with President Trump in person. They primarily discussed tension over North Korean missile tests and the threat it poses. China is expected to have been aiding the U.S. to stop the nuclear and missile tests by North Korea.

Trump said during his meeting with Jinping, “We have been treated unfairly and have made terrible trade deals with China for many, many years. That’s one of the things we are going to be talking about. The other thing of course is going to be North Korea.”

First Speech at the Joint Session of Congress

President Trump delivered his first address to the nation before the Congress on Feb. 28 leading a joint session at Capitol Hill.

He spoke about his accomplishments till date, ranging from fighting Islamic State’s terrorism to the process to repel and reinstate the Affordable Care Act to clearing Dakota Access Pipeline’s way.

"This will be an opportunity for the people and their representatives to hear directly from our new president about his vision and our shared agenda," House Speaker Rep. Paul Ryan, said before the speech.

Transgender Bathroom Policy

Barrack Obama’s federal protection of transgender students was annulled by President Trump, invoking harsh criticism from a host of Hollywood stars. On Feb. 22, the education and justice department declared that they no longer require the schools to allow transgender students to use the restrooms and locker rooms matching their gender identity. The LGBT community was in shock at this move as they think that this would add up to the bullying and discrimination.
