Trump revokes another 18 of Biden’s executive orders, actions

In an executive action released by the White House, Trump wrote that in a previous executive action, he had "directed the Assistant to the President for Domestic Policy, the Assistant to the President for Economic Policy, and the Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs to compile lists of additional orders, memoranda, and proclamations issued by the prior administration that should be rescinded."
