USA is becoming a dictatorship in 10... 9... 8... 7...

This dude is disgusting a traitor and by far one of the most vile men to walk this earth all he's missing is millions of dead bodies like his Nazi idol.

America is disgusting.

Where's all that talk about "my 2nd amendment rights" wake up America you're a fascist country now. Use your guns before it's too late.

It turns out the ones indoctrinating the kids have been the conservatives all along.

Fuck school choice vouchers.

The stupidest part of all this is its going to hurt the red states the most. Blue states already have great education

Congratulations!! This means the average person in America is already too educated. Right!? Right?

But although Wells Fargo has more than 200,000 employees, the Department of Education has fewer than 1,500 in its Office of Federal Student Aid.

So it's more efficient than a bank, BUT needs to be run by an actual bank? How stupid does he think we are?

So I assume all the special ed money in Red states will now just go into a slush fund to accelerate executions, and an amplification of attacks on marginalized groups instead of helping kids/families.

My God, this is beyond sad.

Well, if you don't live in a city shit is about to get bad. Public education was basically one key thing keeping the US as a first world nation.

Was on the radio, some notes:

1. The responsibility of FAFSA (which is 2/3 of it's budget) likely goes to Treasury and honestly I don't think they can realistically pull that back legally, at least anytime soon. Disability funds supposedly will move somewhere too.

2. The DoE itself likely will exist in the same limbo as USAID since legally it requires Congress, and judges can and will challenge illegal moves. That said, I say limbo because USAID may have got people back but empty buildings and ongoing stuff is ruined. Expect that from DoE, even though it shouldn't be allowed.

My own info, though, is they only provide public schools about 5 to 10% budget on average, and yes, it's heavily towards rural districts. This likely will have very little impact on blue states, although don't go celebrating as budgets are already tight in several places and even blue states will cut into education to fund other things like fire relief. Our Blue states are still no where near as good as many European and Asian country educational institutions.

But he needs Congressional approval to do so.

This isn't something Trump would even care about. He's being handled very well this time around.

Remember Rick Perry wanted to close the department of Education as well. It's been on the Republican checklist for a while now.

Super embarrassing. Fucking idiots and their followers

Wow.

I looked at the articles that was expecting for that to happen today, never thought he would actually do it.

This will be in the courts by the end of next week marking it unconstitutional

I think they do something like "soft secession". Instead of breaking the federation apart officially, they're eroding the federation (federal government) to the point where it's no longer relevant. They talk about "state's rights".
