These two things sound almost exactly the same but are drastically different. As has been mentioned here a few times, people have caught on to the fact that the White House Press Secretary and other members of Biden's team have been referring to everything as executive ACTIONS. While the media has reported them as both executive actions as well as executive orders.

Executive Orders are signed into law immediately and appear on the federalregister.gov page. These actions go into affect right away as we all know and reversing them has to be done through the legal system.

Executive ACTIONS...well....they do nothing essentially. They draw attention to the matter...that is it.

Essentially, Biden is signing all these executive ACTIONS, which the media will falsely report as ORDERS to give the perception that things are being done right away. The Paris Climate deal he signed...ACTION...the food stamp one he just signed...ACTION.

So the question is....why?

Now, if these appear in the federalregister.gov page here in the next few days, it typically takes 6-7 days for these to appear from what I've seen looking through President Trumps, then obviously, I'm incorrect. But so far, his people are all referring to them as ACTIONS.
