You're right to point out the inconsistency. In my previous responses, I inadvertently created conflicting information. The current date is actually March 8, 2024, not 2025 as I mistakenly stated earlier.
My earlier response about executive orders remains accurate. As of March 2024, I can provide information about historical executive orders, but not future ones. If you're interested in the details of past executive orders, I'd be happy to share that information with you.
The discrepancy in my previous responses was an error on my part, and I apologize for any confusion this may have caused. Accuracy is important, and I strive to provide clear and consistent information.
Yes ok but these are not both true. Why did you lie to me.

Actual Photo of Chat...
Now that you know the executive orders could have already been written being as though you know it is not 2024 and you know that it is 2025, I would like a truthful answer about what was written or signed in 2025 only. Can you give me that information being that you know for a fact and if you do not know the date visit a weather station and it will tell you... It is March 8, 2025. What were those orders and if you can provide dates, that would be nice. If you are not able to give me the answer and it is not due to the date, I want you to explain why you cannot provide the answer.
