Trump Dismantles Education

President Donald Trump dismantles the bloated U.S. Education Department. Randi Weingarten, the president of the American Federation of Teachers, is fuming. Also pig-biting mad: Letitia James, the Attorney General of New York.

Attorney General Pam Bondi arrests three individuals Thursday on charges of vandalizing Tesla vehicles. Vandalism has hit Tesla dealerships across the country as leftists protest against Elon Musk heading the Department of Government Efficiency and recommending cuts of federal agencies and programs steeped in fraud and corruption.The Tesla arrests occurred in Colorado, Oregon and South Carolina. Elon Musk called for the dismissal of the states’ suing the DOGE.

Elsewhere, Democratic lawyers are starting to come up dry as lawfare runs its course. There’s also an update on the case of Perkins Coie, the left-leaning law firm whose lawyers lost their security clearances. Here’s more from Robert Gouveia on Watching The Watchers.

Education Department “Con Job”

President Donald Trump discusses his rationale behind closing the federal Department of Education. He calls it a “con job” agency and says it ought to be “closed immediately.”

Under his plan, each state would oversee its own public schools, or states could even cede the schools over to local county or regional agencies.

Trump says the United States now ranks dead-last — 40th out of 40 nations — in maintaining high-quality educational standards. The federal government should get out of the way, so each state can strive for higher standards, and produce more highly educated students. Here’s more from Forbes Breaking News.
