Cryptocurrencies, Tariffs, Oil and Spending in Trump's Executive Orders
theinternationalism.orgIn his second term, Donald Trump launched a sweeping overhaul of U.S. economic and political strategy, marked by historic tariff hikes, aggressive fossil fuel expansion, and a dramatic shift toward cryptocurrency deregulation. His executive orders dismantle climate commitments, target federal spending, and centralize power through new institutions like the Department of Government Efficiency. With the appointment of an AI & Crypto Czar and rejection of central bank digital currencies, Trump pushes for private control over digital assets, raising concerns about deregulation and monetary instability. These moves signal a sharp break from past policies, reshaping inter-imperialist relations and global economic dynamics.
