Trump signs executive orders on first day, revokes work-from-home policies and initiates WHO exit
On his first day in office, President Donald Trump signed executive orders to revoke work-from-home policies for federal employees and to initiate the U.S. exit from the World Health Organization. These actions have sparked widespread reactions on social media. Trump's order to end remote work reverses allowances made during the pandemic, affecting the largest employer in the country. His decision to leave the WHO follows previous attempts during his last presidency, which were halted by Joe Biden. The WHO expressed regret over the U.S. decision, emphasizing the importance of American participation for global health efforts. The organization hopes for a reconsideration of the withdrawal.
