Since the announcement of US goals for the future of gas and a massive reduction of the US Agency for Foreign Aid to intervene in Golf and Prohibition of Transsexual Women from Women’s Sports Competitions, Trump, his advisor Elon Musk and the rest of his team were pressed with your agenda.

There are many things to keep up with – so here’s a reminder of 15 moves this week.

1. Suggested the American “take over” gas

At a joint press conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the White House on Tuesday, Trump said the United States would “take over” and “possess” gas, displacing their Palestinian population in the process.

Trump suggested that the territory, devastated after 15 months, to develop a war between Israel and Hamas, in the Riviera of the Middle East.

“The Gaza Strip will be handed over to the United States from Israel at the end of battles,” Trump repeated on Social media on Thursday, repeating the idea to mean the resettlement of Palestinians who currently live there.

Trump suggested that the displacement would be constant, but later the administration employees suggested that every relocation would only be temporary.

Any forced deportation of civilians would be a violation of international law.

2. Planned to put thousands of USAID employees on a vacation

Thousands of employees at the US Agency for International Development (USAID) are expected, the government agency for foreign assistance, to be put on leave at midnight on Friday.

The proposed cuts will influence the vast majority of the agency’s workforce, leaving only a few hundred major employees out of a total of about 10,000 employees worldwide.

This move comes after the workers were asked to stay outside the Washington Agency headquarters earlier this week.

The agency interruptions have increased the global assistance system, with hundreds of programs already frozen in countries around the world.

It is reported that the Trump administration intends to unite the agency, which is distributing billions of dollars for aid globally, as the State Department, as the Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s secretary told reporters that he is now an acting head of the agency.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has agreed to strengthen the US -Canada border to squeeze to migration and flow of the deadly fantany of drugs.

Mexican President Claudia Shainbaum has agreed to strengthen the northern border of the country with troops, and in return the US will limit the flow of weapons in Mexico.

The tariffs that some experts suggest can exacerbate inflation are part of the Trump campaign platform before the November election.

4. Pressed forward with a federal workers’ stimulation plan to resign

The Trump administration has proposed incentives to federal workers to voluntarily resign until the midnight deadline on Thursday – part of the effort to reduce the size of the government.

However, a judge in the US temporarily stopped the plan hours before the deadline, making it until hearing on Monday to determine the merits of a case brought by federal employees, CBS News, the US partner of the BBC, reported.

Some of more than two million civilian workers in the federal government have expressed confusion about the terms of the transaction, which the administration says will allow them to receive payment and benefits in September in exchange for resignation.

Critics have questioned the legality of the offer and some federal unions of employees have advised members to showcased attention to the acceptance of the deal.

Trump’s message came when Netanyahu visits Washington.

More than 120 countries, including the UK, are members of the ICC, although the US and Israel are not.

8. A first plane sent to the Guantanamo deported

The Ministry of Interior Security (DHS) said the detainees were part of Tren de Aragua, a band that arose in Venezuela’s prisons. Ten detainees have been sent, CBS reported, citing numerous US officials.

This move came after Trump ordered the existing migrant detention facility to be expanded to accommodate about 30,000 people.

The naval base is used to accommodate a small number of migrants – several dozen at a time, in recent years – for decades.

Separately, nearly 800 people – the most held suspicion of terrorism – were in prison at the base detention center, as it was opened in 2002. About 15 people are still held there, according to US media.

Deportation flights also brought migrants back to India this week.

Trump on Monday ordered the Army’s engineering body to release billions of gallons of water from two tanks in the Central Valley of California after deadly fires in Los Angeles in January.

Trump claims that California has refused the water supply that could change the fight against fires that Gavin News Governor and other employees are challenging, CBS reports.

The water was separated into a dry lake more than 100 miles (160 km) of the fires. Experts and employees told CBS that water could not flow to Los Angeles and would probably go to a loss.

US Congressman Ted Liu, a Democrat from California, said that before the water was released into the dams, he was “saved for farmers for the summer season when they need water” in the country’s agricultural region.

12. Announce TaskForce to deal with “Antristian bias”

The Trump administration also gave Doge members to a US Department of Finance Payment System, which controls the stream of trillion dollars every year, US media reported.
