President Trump’s return to office has been marked by a whirlwind of executive actions and policy shifts. From aggressive immigration enforcement to sweeping economic changes, his first 100 days have significantly altered the national landscape.

Notably, the administration has implemented mass deportations, including the use of military flights to remove migrants, and has designated certain gangs as foreign terrorist organizations. These actions have led to legal challenges and raised concerns about due process and human rights.

Economically, the introduction of abrupt tariff policies has disrupted global markets, leading to a 0.3% contraction in the U.S. economy during the first quarter. These measures have sparked fears of a looming recession and have been met with criticism from various sectors.

In terms of governance, the establishment of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and the reduction of federal workforce have been significant. These moves aim to streamline government operations but have also led to concerns about the erosion of institutional checks and balances. ​

Given these developments:

  • What are your thoughts on the administration’s approach to immigration and its impact on communities?
  • How do you perceive the economic policies implemented during this period, and their effects on the nation’s financial health?

Bold actions can lead to swift changes, but at what cost to the nation’s fabric?

Looking back at Trump’s first 100 days, there was no shortage of controversy—but there were also some bold moves that caught the attention of the faith community.

This article from Crosswalk highlights how a Spiritual Legislative Council actually applauded his early efforts, especially regarding religious liberty, pro-life policies, and support for Israel:

Agree or disagree, it’s worth asking:
Do you think Trump’s early decisions laid a lasting foundation—or was it more flash than substance?

Here are some of the accomplishments they were pleased with:

  • Promoting economic justice through DOGE
  • Advancing civil rights to protect the dignity of women
  • Strengthening freedom of religion
  • Supporting marginalized communities
  • Issuing executive orders to protect sustainability and natural resources
  • Enhancing border security
  • Establishing the White House Faith Office
  • Appointing the Pardon Czar
