President Donald Trump and his team are gearing up to mark his first 100 days in office with a series of celebrations while laying out ambitious plans for the next phase of his administration, White House officials said this week. The coming months will feature renewed efforts on international trade deals and peace negotiations, though aides hinted that Trump still has some unexpected moves, characterized only as “torpedoes,” yet to be unveiled.
Trump, since taking office on January 20 has moved swiftly to reshape both domestic and foreign policy—thrilling supporters and rattling critics. His administration has imposed sweeping tariffs that have challenged global trade norms, reduced the size of the federal workforce and dismantled diversity initiatives across government agencies and private industries.
In the meantime, former Vice President Kamala Harris has continued to voice her concerns about the direction Trump is taking the country. Harris, who spoke at the Leading Women Defined Summit in Dana Point, California reminded the audience that she had cautioned about Trump’s policies during the 2024 election campaign. Addressing a packed room, she said, “There were many things we knew were gonna happen,” drawing loud applause and cheers when she paused before adding, “I’m not gonna say ‘I told you so.’”
Harris, who launched a rapid presidential bid after former President Joe Biden exited the 2024 race, stressed that today’s political landscape is vastly different from what it was in 2016. Her remarks were captured in a video obtained by HuffPost. The summit, founded by former BET CEO Debra Lee brings together influential women of color to foster empowerment and leadership.
As Trump’s administration looks ahead, officials say the next 100 days will be crucial in defining the president’s broader legacy both at home and abroad.
