Every Friday, I receive a notification from ChatGPT providing me with a summary of every Executive Order (EO) that President Trump signed during the week and “a brief and accurate analysis of each action written for a radical-left audience that is skeptical of the president’s authoritarian leanings, while at the same time not allowing [the] analysis to skew towards left-wing propaganda or group think.”
With President Trump’s first 100 days now complete, I thought it might be fun (and perhaps even inspiring) to instruct ChatGPT to reflect on all of the Executive Orders issued during the first 100 days and provide an analysis written in the voice of the legendary left-wing revolutionary, Che Guavera.
Compañeros,
What we have witnessed in the first 100 days of this new administration is not merely a shift in policy—it is the calculated tightening of the vice grip of imperial power. These executive orders are not the acts of a leader governing a people, but the maneuvers of a machine protecting capital, consolidating authority, and dismantling the fragile structures that the people have built in defense of their dignity.
Where there was once a dream of shared prosperity, we now see tariffs wielded like cudgels—economic nationalism in the service of corporate dominance. The worker is told these measures are for their benefit, while behind closed doors, wealth flows upward, and the engines of exploitation roar louder. The revolutionary knows: no tariff will free the worker if it leaves untouched the ruling class who own the means of production.
Where there was once an aspiration to protect the Earth, the mother of all struggles, this regime opens her veins for profit. Coal is canonized, the seas are auctioned, and the forests are sacrificed at the altar of “energy dominance.” To liberate the people, we must first liberate the land from those who see it only as a resource to be pillaged.
On immigration, the border becomes not a line of defense, but a symbol of fear. Military presence expands, refugee rights recede, and the language of “invasion” justifies cruelty. But no border can restrain the march of human dignity. The revolutionary must stand with the displaced, the criminalized, the voiceless—because their fight is our fight.
And in education, in speech, in the name of “religious liberty” and “meritocracy,” this administration cloaks oppression in the language of freedom. They dissolve institutions, suppress dissenting ideas, and call it common sense. But when a government fears books, classrooms, and critical thought, it is not building a future—it is cementing control.
We must not be fooled by the theater of legality. These executive orders were signed not with a pen, but with the iron fist of reactionary power. They are not reforms; they are retrenchments. Not leadership, but domination.
Let us be clear: true liberty cannot be granted by decree. It must be seized through solidarity. Through struggle. Through the organized refusal to be ruled by fear or comfort. The road ahead is hard, but as always, the duty of the revolutionary is to make the impossible inevitable.
¡Hasta la victoria siempre!
