### 1.1. Trump to Issue Executive Order on Election Rules

The Trump administration is reportedly preparing a significant executive order designed to implement a nationwide overhaul of U.S. election procedures. According to reports, the order’s two central pillars are a federal ban on universal mail-in voting [1] and the institution of a mandatory voter ID requirement for every ballot cast. This new identification rule is being framed as absolute, with one report emphasizing that it will be enforced with “‘No Exceptions’” [2]. This executive action signals a major, direct move by the administration to reshape the framework of federal elections.

Executive Summary

The Trump administration faced a series of powerful rebukes from the judicial branch, as federal courts struck down its signature tariff policies and blocked key immigration actions, including fast-track deportations. This occurred amid escalating turmoil across federal agencies, with a state of ‘chaos’ at the CDC prompting calls for HHS Secretary RFK Jr.’s resignation and a whistleblower exposing data privacy concerns regarding DOGE. Domestically, tensions are boiling over the use of federal forces, with the withdrawal of former VP Harris’s Secret Service detail and military threats toward Chicago drawing a rare warning from former President Obama. Abroad, the U.S. is deploying forces near Venezuela and facing friction with allies over Ukraine and India.

1. The Executive Branch: Unilateral Actions and Institutional Turmoil

1.1 Executive vs. Legislative: The Budget and Foreign Aid Crisis

A major constitutional conflict over the power of the purse has erupted, dramatically increasing the likelihood of a government shutdown. The Trump administration has moved to unilaterally cancel between $4.9 billion and $5 billion in foreign aid previously approved by lawmakers, using a rare “pocket rescission” maneuver not seen in nearly 50 years to achieve the cancellation [1, 2]. The move is widely viewed as an “end-run around Congress’ funding power” [3]. In response, congressional sources are reportedly bracing for a shutdown, directly linking the fiscal confrontation to an imminent crisis [4]. In a related development, the administration has handed off the “closeout” of the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) to Office of Management and Budget Director Russ Vought, signaling a major structural shift in foreign aid administration [5].
