Executive Order Hour will soon come to an end. Abolish the DOE? Implement the DOGE recommendations? Defund the left? It’s all going to come down to the Reconciliation Bill and, soon after, Trump’s FY 2026 budget proposal.
In the short run, Trump is implicitly trying to reopen the impoundment and line item veto debates, which fiscal conservative lost decades ago. In the long run, however, it all depends on what Congress authorizes and appropriates money to fund. And Trump’s signature will be on all such legislation going forward for the next four years.
Trying to roll back the last Biden fiascos is well and good, but it’s trivial in the long run. Trump has to submit a budget — well, Bill Clinton defaulted on that at least once, which put a Republican Congress in the drivers’ seat. (And the Gingrich-Armey Republicans cut taxes and balanced the budget.) But basically, the president proposes and the Congress disposes. What emerges is law. We’ll see Trump’s proposed budget soon enough.
It argues for abortion.
These kids who can’t read or do math were supposed to be the concern of Bill Ayers and Barack Obama when they were on some board together. They spent all the money training teachers to indoctrinate the kids in Sub-Saharan Supremacy - literally teaching that the US is the devil and whites are much dumber than Blacks.
Funny, the kids got real good at violence but still don’t know how to read or math their way out of the Democrat welfare plantation.
Outraged by all Communists and loved by freedom lovers.
Nobody cares.
It’s been done.
Like everything else he has done.
Yawn.
Block grant the funds “mandated” by Congress to the states. The Secretary can be the only employee issuing the grants as the official acts of this Department.
Somehow we had public schools in the United States prior to the late 1970s when this department was created. Now, if it goes away, public schools are “over”?
I remember in 2017 when a “net neutrality” policy was eliminated that had never existed prior to 2015 and everyone went ballistic like it would be the end of the internet...
My father was reading Longfellow’s ‘Evangeline’ in the 1920s. He could still recite a lot of it into his 60s.
I wonder how many kids today even know the name of the author, or the poem.
The gnashing of leftist educator’s teeth please me immensely.
They can do nothing but make a lot of noise.
These leftists had years to show what they could do for the children of America. They failed miserably.
Absolutely!!
THAT IS ONLY ONE SAMPLE FROM ONE STATE.
SEE WHAT YOU CAN FIND ABOUT MARYLAND
“ The reasons for educational failures are about 70% student, 20% parental, 7% teacher, 2% union and maybe as high as 1% DoE.”
Actually, public schools were a firewall for helping troubled kids prior to the formation of the DoE. Teachers and faculty actually helped kids who had problems at home and with their peers. They actually took an interest in the well being of their students.
