A crazy heist for a golden treasure.

And the start of President Trump's first full week in office includes a flurry of activity

and perhaps a connection to the mob.

Don't worry.

We're going to explain.

I'm Jenna and this is Smarter News.

Hard to believe that the inauguration was just a week ago it feels like a lot has changed already

doesn't it this is in part because of the pace and the quantity of news coming from the new

administration and that's absorbing a lot of the headlines for obvious reasons new administration

new president new action but we have to be really careful with becoming distracted by action and keeping an eye on results.

A lot of these executive orders I'm taking a step back from because presenting them publicly is one thing.

Seeing how they're applied is another.

And this is just a reminder.

Executive action isn't law.

It matters, but it isn't law.

The president can do some things unilaterally, but a lot of the time he needs Congress and or favorable decisions from the courts, meaning his policies have to survive legal challenge. And that can take a little while. In the meantime, though, his executive orders can really have an effect. And we got a great example of this just over the last week and throughout the weekend. So President Trump ordered a tougher stance on those in the country without legal status.

Some of those people were deported to the country of Columbia on a flight, and then Columbia

rejected that flight. So then President Trump threatens tariffs. There's late-night negotiations.

Columbia and the White House announced some sort of agreement where Columbia is going to accept the return of their own citizens.

So there was an end result to this. It did not require law.

It actually required applying existing law.

That's something that the president has been talking about.
