'We call them 'midnight regulations.' It's the last chance to put these rules on the books before the Trump administration changes to the Biden administration,' said investigative reporter Isaac Arnsdorf. 'They can be reversed, but not easily.'

. In his final weeks, he's added eight new questions to the citizenship test and tried to make it harder for high-skilled foreign workers to get visas.

Outgoing former President George W. Bush, in a similar situation, notably deferred to his successor, Obama, in late 2008 on whether to approve a troop surge in Afghanistan.Trump has also taken steps to formally shut the door on a two-decade-old treaty he has long criticized, pulling out of the"Open Skies Treaty" last month which had allowed U.S. and Russia to conduct mutual surveillance flights to build trust. Critics say the move is a gift to Russian President Vladimir Putin.

"The regulation will allow them, without challenge, to use whatever method of lethal injection that it wants to use," Dunham said.

Pay attention to this Oklahoma! It involves air quality, food stamps, and our military troops. Trumps plan is to make it harder to breath! Harder to get food stamps,and harder for our military to protect themselves!!!check out this article. Keep speaking out everywhere you can!!

Yet no reporting on the election ballot stuffing in Georgia. Thanks for nothing ABC.

Disgraceful

3-yrs & 10-mos to get things done. He couldn’t because golfing & rallies are more important. He sat on his butt for a month sulking about the election. Now! All of a sudden! There’s a big rush to get his legacy bills done. We don’t need those! There’s more important things to do!

Your channel lacks proof. You used phone a friend....im here. Im that friend. Proof below. 🤣🤣🤣

Hey, it's the TinyDesk

What is up with the toy desk?

All should be reviewed by the Biden administration...

American shame! CorruptMedia

Investigative reporter hahahahahaha

America is continuing a steady comeback under President realDonaldTrump with 245,000 jobs added in November and 6.7% unemployment! 🇺🇸

Well I don’t think the coronavirus is on his mind right now, but it should be. It would help all the ppl of America. That the least thing he could do before leaving the office in a disrespectful & disgusting mess

ooo look he's in his tiny desk again vroooom vroooom

The King of Koreagraft Kayoss cementing his legacy of behind the scenes deconstruction of our democracy. The Profiteer President. Tge only President ro collect over $ 200,000,000 for re-election AFTER LOSING THE ELECTION.

Trump and his administration corrupt to the very end. Deeds done in darkness!

What’s with that tiny fucking desk?!

I hope someone is keeping track. It all needs to be reversed. Just like he did to Obama. TrumpIsACriminal

Trump’s desk seems to be getting smaller and smaller. Pretty soon he’ll be behind a small folding table, bought online from Wayfair.

More people died from Covid yesterday in the USA than those in 911. Get this crooked moron out of the Whitehouse and out of our lives forever.

So now Trump carries his little desk everywhere he goes. Sweet

How long will it take to undo all the damage he has done

Chief Crook at it again,and what a loser !!!

Bidens Pen works just the same.. Donald the petulant lying pig

Who is Trump for again? It isn't the people.

Donald Trump Is....

He's really enjoying his Playskool 'presidential' desk, isn't he 🤣

He has executed more people on death row then has been done in over a century! He has killed 270,000 people by his neglect! The question you should be asking is: Does trump like killing people?

They can and will be reversed; Everything Trump did, is able to be wiped off seeing as how he STOLE the 2016 election and shouldn't be- or (have been) the President. Don't be deceived: Their iniquity is at it's end, but not the way they think:

Trump legacy: Dumb and Dumber!

They WILL Very EASY!

Does Trump keep that little desk with him.

Trump has a Tiny Traveling Desk.

Can hate me but as a Catone il Censore from soviet-Italy I have to say: many in America have given for granted the Libera Republica Americana, including the Internet Her best miracle🌟🇺🇸🌟

He LOVES that little desk! 🤣🤣🤣

We support you President Trump

Mafia have cement boots too... . It's the last chance to put these rules on the books before the Trump administration changes to the Biden administration,' said investigative reporter Isaac Arnsdorf. 'They can be reversed, but not easily.'

HAAG is waiting for you d trump

I'D SAY SOME RULES NEED TO BE PLACED FOR FUTURE PRESIDENTS. ACCOUNTABILITY NEEDS TO HAPPEN FOR TRUMP ! if we don't see ACCOUNTABILITY for TRUMP then we will see more criminal REPUBLICANS in office again destroying our COUNTRY and profiting massively from it ! JAIL TRUMP !

“Legacy” 🙄 His legacy has already been cemented. It’s a legacy of shame, incompetence, and criminal hypocrisy.

Agent Orange hard at work lol

This is why we don’t use term limits. We the people have no leverage against a politician that has nothing left to lose

The Trump administration is not changing to the Biden administration. Trump won by a landslide and evidence coming out proving that. Mainstream media better get on board or their credibility will slip even further!

Putin, take Trump as prime minister, chief minister, create jobs in Russia.

we're getting that bigot's 💩outta here...
