Trump's Controversial Moves and Responses from Civil Leaders and Elon Musk

On Tuesday, Donald Trump expressed his dissatisfaction with a prayer service held at the National Cathedral, which the Bishop of Washington used as a platform to advocate for compassion towards migrants and LGBT+ youth. This sermon provoked backlash from some right-wing figures, with one even suggesting that the bishop should be subjected to deportation.

In a broader context, Trump's administration is facing serious challenges, as 22 states are contesting his executive order aimed at abolishing birthright citizenship, claiming it to be unconstitutional. Concurrently, Trump has taken a series of decisive actions, including declaring a national emergency at the southern border, classifying drug cartels as terrorist entities, reinstating the controversial "Remain in Mexico" stance, and ending established "catch and release" practices for migrants.

Additionally, Trump has engaged in a series of other controversial moves this week, such as issuing pardons for 1,500 individuals connected to the January 6th Capitol riots, pulling the United States out of international agreements like the World Health Organization and the Paris Climate Accord, and reinforcing a binary perspective on gender. He has also made headlines by renaming geographical locations and implementing a federal hiring freeze while delaying the enforcement of a ban on TikTok.

In a related development, Tesla CEO Elon Musk confronted accusations regarding his alleged imitation of a Nazi salute during Trump's inauguration celebrations, describing the claims as repetitive and indicative of dubious tactics aimed at discrediting him.
