Trump to Sign Order Thursday to Shut Down Dept. of Education, WH Says
NewsMax ^ | Wednesday, 19 March 2025

Posted on 03/19/2025 4:31:51 PM PDT by SoConPubbie

President Donald Trump will sign an executive order on Thursday that aims to shut down the Department of Education, fulfilling a key campaign pledge, the White House said in a fact sheet on the measure.

The order directs Education Secretary Linda McMahon to "take all necessary steps to facilitate the closure (of) the Department of Education and return education authority to the States, while continuing to ensure the effective and uninterrupted delivery of services, programs, and benefits on which Americans rely."

It also mandates that any programs or activities receiving remaining Department of Education funds should not "advance DEI or gender ideology."

The order is already being drafted. The injunction will issue concurrent with the executive order.

Anyone wanna bet some little twerp in a black robe will issue an injunction and order it to re-open? Any guesses on how many days it’ll take for a little tyrant to chime in?

Probably nibbling because it was created by law.

It can’t be “shut down” by EO.

President Trump orders breakfast and a judge will block it.

The administration needs to collect some porta-potties with “Department of Education” on them—ready to deliver to judge chambers all over the country.

“Judge—we have obeyed your order. The Department is open for business.”

Lol.

Federal Judge to issue a stay. The money laundering operations across every agency must be sustained. Dumbest idea for a federal agency, ever. It was brokered by Jimmy Carter along with the teacher’s unions in exchange for their support. The agency has zero to do with education. It’s an exclusive bank. “Do the things we say, and you get money” those things are social changes.

Yep. He’s going to have to make a decision - ignore these assholes or get SCOTUS to rule against them. I say ignore them because SCOTUS is corrupt as well.

Created by Congress, cannot be canceled by president. SCOTUS itself will not approve this.

It’s going to be divided up. As part of the Federal Government, only one thing is at stake....money.

See post 12.

Save a porta-potty for the Supreme Court.

Wow. The Democrat fat is in the fire.

Remind yourselves : Just 4% of Trump's 2024 voter total, constitutes the largest standing army in the world.

Quick...let Trump know he can’t do this. He’ll appreciate your guidance...
