President Trump Has Now Signed 40 Pieces Of Legislation As He Moves To Enact His Agenda
President Donald Trump continues to sign legislation, an achievement he deemed “nice” Friday.
The bills include an act to improve weather forecasting, a long-term vision for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and reforms for the Department of Veteran Affairs.
The three pieces of legislation all had bipartisan support.
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Transition Authorization Act of 2017 calls for a $19.5 billion budget for NASA — an increase from $19.3 billion in 2016 — and also asks that NASA create a plan for getting humans “near or on the surface of Mars in the 2030s.”

During the campaign, Trump said that “making sure we stay at the forefront of space exploration is a big priority for my administration.”
Trump also signed the Weather Research and Forecasting Innovation Act of 2017, which The Washington Post described as “the first major weather legislation enacted since the early 1990s.”
This bill aims to increase research into improving weather forecasts and modernize the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. David Titler, professor of meteorology at Pennsylvania State University, said, “Improving weather-related safety of our people and our assets is not political — it’s just common sense.”
Another bipartisan law Trump signed was the Department of Veterans Affairs Accountability and Whistleblower Protection Act. This bill allows for greater ease to punish wrongdoers and gives whistleblowers more protections.
Trump signed the legislation on Friday, and an injured Army veteran, Michael Verardo, said at the ceremony, “Today is a new day. This administration has fulfilled its promise that the veteran is empowered and the veteran is in charge of his or her own care.”
The other bills, while not as consequential, still involve Trump carrying out his agenda. The American Law Enforcement Heroes Act prioritizes giving federal grants to law enforcement agencies that hire veterans. The Public Safety Officers’ Benefits Improvement Act works to reduce the time families of fallen officers have to wait to receive survivor benefits.
Fifteen of the 40 signed bills repeal Obama-era regulations. Examples of these regulations include a rule that made it tougher for states to drug test welfare recipients and a regulation that imposed permitting requirements on mining sites. These bills signed by President Trump utilized the Congressional Review Act, which allows Congress to nullify any rule or regulation created in the previous administration’s final six months.
Trump said in a tweet Friday that he’s “gotten rid of massive amounts of regulations.” http://dailycaller.com/2017/06/25/president-trump-has-now-signed-40-pieces-of-legislation-as-he-moves-to-enact-his-agenda/

Trump is achieving much of his agenda and we are going to normalize his Presidency so America's interests can be advanced come what may from the domestic disloyal opposition.
Trump has achieved diddly squat. He will only be "normalized" as someone who is only sitting in the Oval Office because of Putin. He will never, ever be considered "legitimate" or "normal". Ever. He will always have an * after his name.
He's legitimate. The will of the electorate outweighs your supervillian delusions.
He won the Presidency fair and square. He is our President. He will serve until Jan. 2021 at least. There is nothing you can do about it. He has undone much of the obama regulatory environment and had several nice accomplishments. We don't have to resort to violence to preserve him legally and we won't. We will defend him though to the extent that the only way he will be removed from office before another election will be for the disloyal opposition to engage in it. Since the right endured two terms of Obama without any violence at all, just peaceful rally's and protests, we expect the same now from the progressives. Not too much to ask.
Putin flooded the campaign with false wikileaks and propaganda. The American people voted completely on false information Russian propaganda and it's becoming more and more obvious that, at the very least, the Trump campaign and Trump himself encouraged and helped the misinformation and propaganda, if not provided ideas to help Putin, whose stated goal was to destroy the campaign of Hillary Clinton and to get Donald Trump elected. Vladimir Putin succeeded beyond his wildest dreams and now has an active operative in the Oval Office. Trump is not the legitimate President of the United States. He is a Russian controlled Agent. Every REAL American should be fighting against him or be surrendering to and pledging allegiance to Vladimir Putin.
No matter how often you spew these insane Bond villain theories, no one sane believes them.
There is no evidence from any source in person or electronic intercept to show any one from the Trump campaign or Trump himself colluding with the Russians on anything. There is no evidence that the Russians created any false e-mails. The democrats did not deny the accuracy of the stuff in the Wikileaks. Whether the Russians hacked them or Seth Rich leaked them.
