President Donald Trump has issued a new wave of executive orders that significantly alter U.S. policy across several areas.

One directive tasks the Treasury and Commerce Departments with creating a sovereign wealth fund. The fund would be used to support government-backed investments, including potential acquisitions of major companies such as TikTok.

Another measure, rolled out in January 2025, centers on deregulation. Federal agencies are now required to eliminate ten existing rules for every new regulation they introduce.

The administration also confirmed its withdrawal from the Paris Climate Agreement. This move underscores Trump’s longstanding opposition to international climate commitments.

In addition, restrictions on single-use plastics have been lifted. The decision marks a reversal of earlier efforts to reduce plastic waste and encourage environmental sustainability.

Supporters of these policies argue they strengthen U.S. sovereignty, boost economic growth, and cut red tape that burdens businesses. Proponents see the sovereign wealth fund in particular as a bold step to increase American competitiveness.

Critics, however, warn that the orders could come with serious long-term costs. They argue that loosening environmental rules and abandoning climate agreements will heighten ecological risks while isolating the United States on global environmental issues.
