If Congress creates and funds a department, I think the President is obligated to manage and spend the money on the department. I don’t think a President can eliminate departments by edict.
What Trump is pointing out about education could be said of our healthcare system as well. And certainly we now well know it applies to government. What he pointed out about the Kennedy Center applies to our culture more broadly. Our churches? They were all busy soaking in the cash to import an invading army into our country.
Our country’s institutions are corrupted to the gills, and short of success with the massive reversal Trump is initiating, we are done for—whether the Chinese are in line to overtake us (and that is surely their plan) or not.
Congress needs to pass a budget. They are relying on executive branch to make spending decisions. If they need to pass a bill to find out what is in it... Sounds like getting rid of the department of education was in the last continuing resolution.
Fraud vitiates all contracts. The DOE is a fraudulent government “department.”
Whether immediately or after waiting for the SCOTUS to strike down the lower courts within about the next 6 months, I have confidence the Trump administration really is going to shut down the Department of Education. Conservatives have been wanting this for 45 years. Like many other things, Trump will be the one who actually delivered it.
This is like a prize fighter pummeling the opponent into the ropes
Trump, you rock sir!
Reagan was good.
Trump 100 times better.
I remember posts in 2016 saying Trump is not a conservative.
I prefer MAGA over conservative.
I don’t blame Reagan so much. He had a Democrat Controlled House that was never going to go along with what he wanted while Trump has a thin Republican majority - but a majority still. Reagan also had to sacrifice some things to get the massive rebuild of the military and tax cuts. Trump doesn’t have to so he is more free to pursue Conservative/Populist objectives....but credit to him for actually doing it - unlike all the Bushite RINOs in between Ronaldus Magnus and The Magnificent Orange Bastard.
You get it.
Trump is an American for All Americans.🇺🇸👍
However, I think Trump should consider letting it continue to operate long enough for MAGA to use that centralized power for good by forcing local school districts to dump all of their woke, DEI-focused, and anti-American curricula and replacing it with strong traditional academics and patriotism. Use the same mechanism the left used to destroy education to rebuild it instead: arm-twisting via DOE grants.
Then once that is accomplished, eliminate the DOE.
DOE has been the reason for the decline in America’s education. Their main job is useless teachers unions.
The department of education was created by executive order, not congress.

I like it
Trump may have disavowed it (I didn't like the way he did it, but I understand why) but he seems to be following it quite. closely.
Never should have been created in the first place.
America needs to start the climb back to the top of the Top 40 educations and make it cheaper to teach the young skulls full of mush. We can start by knocking out “Which Gender Are You” out of the curriculum. We can live without one of Jimmah Cahtah’s major **** ups. Creating a taxpayer dollar munching Department we don’t need. The Redundant Department of Redundancy.
Delete the Dept. of Education. What the children don’t know won’t hurt them.
