  • Mandatory military service
  • Military sent to Ukraine
  • Military sent to Gaza
  • Additional protections to police
  • The pardon of all January 6th rioters
  • The relaxation of maximum presidential terms
  • Repeal of Affordable Care Act
  • Repeal of Social Security
  • Increase in taxes of lowest and middle incomes
  • Reduction in the minimum wage
  • Shutdown of major news outlets of "reporting lies"
  • Ban of reporting "bad news"
  • New ability to farmers to hire for no wage
  • New protections to reject hiring/customers/schooling based on colour
