President Trump ran on a handful of issues that were obviously important to a majority of American voters. Those issues included dramatically improved border security (check), expanding access to our own energy resources (check), ending the “woke” in government and our institutions (check), and making life more affordable (results not in yet).
He also ran on some secondary issues, like, “Yeah, that’d be great if he could get that done, too.” One of them was dismantling the completely politicized and hyper-woke Department of Education.Check.
Trump did nominate an Education secretary. That would be Linda McMahon. But she took the job knowing that Trump’s plan was to disassemble as much of the agency as possible and “move education back to the states where it belongs.” And she has been 110 percent on board with assisting in that mission.
On Tuesday, the Education Dept. announced it would be downsizing considerably, moving several of its own divisions to other federal agencies:
The Department of Justice will take on enforcement of civil rights in education, while the Department of Health and Human Services will oversee special education, administration officials announced. With those moves, the Education Department has now carved away the vast majority of its functions for other agencies to handle.
The two Education Department offices involved — the Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services and the Office for Civil Rights — defend the rights of children with disabilities and those who experience discrimination based on race, sex or religion.
