    A current topic since Trumps's campaign for presidency, and specifically right now with President Trump's inauguration last week, this article talks about the cost's of building a wall along the U.S./Mexico border, which would be roughly 2,000 miles in length. Trump made this promise throughout his campaign and seems to be focused on taking the steps towards this within the last week. This article talks about the cost's of building such a wall. I found it very interesting how they add up.

    I hope Trump has a large piggy-bank because I don't see where this money will come from. His presidency isn't going to be easy for him if this is how he wishes to start. We are in an age of equality and fairness. More seed opposed than for it.
  • zitlali2491 on 29 Jan 17
     
    I agree with Hailey hopefully our president has a saving account because I don't think that Mexico will pay the way for him. In my opinion Donald Trump is going to gain enemies from all over the world because he is not treating everybody the same.

    President Donald Trump calls for a immigration ban for specific countries. Why would the President do something that effects millions of Americans. How will the rest of the world look at the United States after the ban.

    With a Congress that's afraid to tackle immigration reform, the President can take practical, and legal, steps in the meantime to improve the system as it currently exists. The answer is brought up to what the President is actually planning to do and what he can do on the basis of immigration and is answered in this reading.

  • dev2154534 on 30 Jan 17
     
    It does list all of the big-hitting topics in the news lately. The repeal of AHA, the TPP, the pipeline, and many other first week orders. I don't recall of any other president making so many drastic changes or attempts at drastic changes this early in their term.
  • bil2040400 on 30 Jan 17
     
    I worry about how fast he is doing things and that he isn't really thinking through consequences. I'm not a big fan of Obamacare, but when faced with that or nothing, I'd stick with it, at least until something better can be found to make sure everyone has access to affordable health care.

    This article describes President Trumps ban on immigration. It describes that President Trump put a temporary ban on seven Muslim countries. Not only are Muslims not allowed to enter the U.S. but U.S. citizens are not allowed to re-enter the United states from those 7 Muslim countries.

    I posted a similar article that went into depth about a certain airport. I can't believe that it also banned U.S. citizens from re-entering as well. It really is mind blowing.
  • emilyward94 on 30 Jan 17
     
    This article is another one about the Immigration issue we are facing. Since he put this temporary ban, there are people who are here legally in this country trying to travel, but then get detained at the airport just because of where they are coming from. This is not okay. I find this infuriating.
  • cathurrin on 30 Jan 17
     
    This whole scenario is mind-blowing and shows what kind of person he is. How can he sit there and deny U.S CITIZENS re-entry to their country?! Makes me sick how intolerant some people still are. I think about the world my daughters will have to grow up in and it scares me.
  • dia2158579 on 30 Jan 17
     
    Not trying to be rude or anything but Trump is obviously not try to have people actually like him as the new president. To ban people who have green cards from re-enrtering the U.S is very wrong.

    As we get ready for another Trump-tastic #GOPdebate, it's worth taking another look at The Donald's plan for the U.S. economy. Trump argues that he is the best at solving money problems despite his 4 bankruptcies.

    Donald Trump requested an appeal for the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and chose judges to the Supreme Court to oppose the Roe v. Wade decision. This was a message that disturbed the healthcare community during the time nonprofits, medical providers, healthcare companies and ordinary Americans were trying to adjust themselves for severe modifications to a difficult, but necessary, industry.

    The author, Michael Salesman, begins his article by giving an account of President Obama's State of the Union address, where President Obama was encouraging Congress to raise the Federal minimum wage. The author announces his disagreement with the President and then dissects the reasons why people are for raising the minimum wage. The author ends his article by stating that campaigns for raising the minimum wage should end because what that are advocating for goes directly against what they say they want.

    I think the president is a social just issue on his own. the more I read on what he is doing the more I can't believe that he was elected. All your articles that you have found provide great information that I was completely unaware of, this being one of them.

    President Trump signed an executive order on Monday halting all federal funds from organizations that promote abortion around the world, including Planned Parenthood. This bill will prohibit some of the poorest women around the world from having a choice in what to do with their bodies.
