Trump confirms on Twitter he'll spend Wednesday focusing on 'NATIONAL SECURITY'
After reports began to circulate on Tuesday night that President Trump will sign executive orders on immigration Wednesday, Trump tweeted that he has a "big day planned on NATIONAL SECURITY tomorrow. Among many other things, we will build the wall!"
He made the announcement after tweeting his congratulations to Fox News "for being number one in inauguration ratings" and saying if "Chicago doesn't fix the horrible 'carnage' going on," he will "send in the Feds!" It was actually Trump's second tweet on the matter — he deleted a previous message that did not have "national security" in all caps and spelled "among" wrong. Catherine Garcia
