As the Trump administration evaluates the Department of Education and hopefully plans to shut the whole thing down, the current thought is to distribute those funds to other agencies or send certain elements of funding back to the states.

Actually, there are large swaths of Department of Education functions and funding that need to be eliminated altogether. In other words, these programs should not be sent to states where they can become bloated little fiefdoms driven by the progressive agenda.

So what should stay and what should go? Here is my “death wish” list for certain programs/policies at the Department of Education. It is not exhaustive by any means, but just a place to start. I am hoping that Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, through DOGE, will make this happen.

Let’s start with the FY 2024 budget of the USDOE. It’s around $228 billion, $120 billion of which goes to federal student aid/loans.

Great list. We should begin with what should have been done centuries ago: Make English the Official Language of the United States. No more ESL, translators and seemingly endless printouts of the same few paragraphs on multiple sheets of paper because SOME PEOPLE think our nation should kowtow to their unwillingness to assimilate.
