Regardless of who you voted for, you still have to handle your responsibilities. Maybe dismantling the Department of Education is a good thing, forcing us to ensure our kids get what they need. It could compel us to demand from our state that our tax money is used to give our kids exactly what they need. We don't have to wait for the government; we can do it ourselves. This is now in our hands, and it's going to be tough. If it comes down to survival, you have to take care of what you have to take care of.

The Trump administration ordered the Department of Education building to be vacated by 6:00 PM and closed the following day. The speaker asserts that massive cuts and layoffs are expected at the Department of Education. The speaker claims that eliminating the Department of Education is a primary goal of Project 2025, with the aim to cut education funding to the states. According to the speaker, the Trump administration and Christian nationalists want an uneducated populace to make them easier to control as slave labor for billionaires. They allegedly don't want people to have critical thinking skills because an uneducated populace is easier to control.

I am voting for Joe Biden and want to know why Trump talks about "black jobs." Trump is a white supremacist who doesn't care about black people. He should have been aborted. Our democracy is at risk from white supremacy. Democrats need to wake up and see what Biden has done. CNN is a disgrace. Abortion at birth is murder. I want to know what "black jobs" are.

The speaker claims the rise of certain issues in localities nationwide originates with the unelected US Department of Education. This department allegedly uses its $83 billion budget to pressure schools into adopting "toxic ideologies" by threatening to withhold federal funding. The speaker states they are the first US presidential candidate to propose abolishing the Department of Education. They argue that 25% of the department's budget could fund three armed security guards in every school across the nation, which they present as a superior use of funds.

The speaker addresses critics of the president's education plan by questioning their past concern about failing test scores despite the Department of Education's existence since the 1970s and over $3 trillion spent. The speaker claims current reading, literacy, math, and science test scores are incredibly concerning. According to the speaker, the president is taking action to return education control to educators and states. An event is scheduled with students, teachers, parents, educators, and governors to discuss this shift.

The administration is fighting to remove critical race theory from school districts. Children will be taught to love America, be patriots, and embrace civic values to receive federal taxpayer funding. As the Department of Education closes and funding is provided to states, the administration will ensure funds are not used to promote communist ideology. A nation cannot teach its children to hate themselves and their country to be successful.

There are those trying to take us backward with Project 2025, a plan to cut Medicare, repeal the $35 cap on insulin, eliminate the Department of Education, and end programs like Head Start. This is an attack on our children, families, and future. We will not go back.

As an attorney and former public high school teacher, I've seen firsthand the issues within our education system. I loved my students, but the bureaucracy is stifling. Only 9% of the Department of Education's massive budget actually reaches K-12 schools. A lot of federal funding requires schools to meet certain criteria, turning it into a game for administrators to grab money. This funding often doesn't directly benefit teachers or students. Instead, it goes to programs that can make teachers' jobs harder. Why does the Department of Education spend over 90% of its budget on things other than K-12 education? What are your thoughts on this?

I will close the Department of Education in Washington, D.C., and return all education responsibilities to the states. States can manage education better than the federal government, as evidenced by our poor performance compared to other countries. We will eliminate federal oversight and close down the department, as many within it do not prioritize the well-being of our children. Education should be handled at the state level for improved outcomes. Thank you.

I suggest everyone educate themselves. Trump has accomplished more for the country than any other president, doesn't take a salary, and has helped the black community more than Obama. It's time to wake up, pay attention, and educate yourself on global events. If you do, you'll stand with us.

People are panicking about Trump's plan to kill the Department of Education. The DOE aims to boost student achievement and ensure equal access, but despite trillions spent, our global competitiveness has declined in reading and math. While the DOE has had some positive effects on the black white achievement gap, the gains have been modest relative to the money spent and time passed. If the DOE disappears, the Department of Justice would handle civil rights, the Treasury would handle funds, and states would determine education strategy, potentially redistributing funds to families via school choice. While risks exist, like some states deprioritizing equality, local voting can influence this. Free lunch programs, special education, and student loans aren't disappearing, they will be handled by other departments. Dismantling the DOE is a step in the right direction, but a clear vision for improving education is still needed.

Leaked lesson plans from a freshman education course at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign sparked backlash after a student whistleblower exposed the level of hard left ideology being taught. The student shared six weeks of lectures with Fox News Digital, accusing the professor of turning an intro course into an indoctrination seminar focused on, you guessed it, equity, identity, and oppression amongst other practices. Slides from the course, which is a requirement to graduate, show first year education majors were trained to prioritize equity, LGBTQ plus issues, privileged identities, and preferred pronouns. Erica Donalds, AFPI Center for Education Opportunity Chair, responded that what the student whistleblower reveals is political, not an education course, and called it a course in liberal left wing Democrat politics. She argued it is infuriating to taxpayers paying for these courses that it explicitly teaches new teachers to be activists and to view schools as part of a larger political system, with the ideologies in the PowerPoint described as radical left wing ideologies being pushed on students instead of teaching the science of reading, how to teach rigorous math, and other fundamentals. She noted that brand new teachers coming out of teacher colleges are "woefully unprepared," citing surveys. The discussion highlighted concerns that if teachers focus on such content, they cannot teach students what they need to know. The problem, it was said, lies with the people teaching the teachers, suggesting reforms must target teacher certification and the ideologues running these programs. Donalds advocated reforming teacher certification, arguing that students who majored in core subjects must return to take courses from colleges of education for purposes of indoctrination and protectionism by teachers unions. One point raised: courses on privilege can lead to teaching individuals to shame children for how they were born, a concern about teaching young adults who are preparing to be teachers. The discussion asserted that parents and teachers are being disillusioned by education schools, undermining trust in colleges of education and colleges in general. On the political front, Linda McMahon, the Education Department Secretary, was discussed in the context of dismantling the department. It was stated that groups suing to stop reforms are not parents or classroom teachers, but teachers unions, progressive school district coalitions, and advocacy groups that benefit from centralized federal control and oppose curriculum transparency and accountability. The claim was that Congress created the department, but nothing requires it to remain an untouched bureaucracy, and McMahon is reportedly working to deliver on a promise to dismantle the Department of Education, with some functions moved to the Treasury, the Labor Department, and HHS. The conversation concluded with support for McMahon’s efforts and skepticism about the department’s longevity, ending with a light remark about the department’s age.

Hey, it's your ranking grizzler on appropriations from Connecticut's Third District. Get ready for your dark academia congress era because House appropriation is where the money is at. We're not chasing the bag; we *are* the bag. Democrats are funding to make life easier through government funding. Republicans' 2025 plan is suspect. They want to eliminate the Department of Education, which is bad. It's a huge tax on the environment, your education, and your rights, a big loss. Democrats get it, though. See how I keep you informed?

Democrats created a scene at the Department of Education. Their behavior was disrespectful, especially towards the security guard who was simply doing his job. They acted entitled, ignoring proper channels for meetings with the executive branch. This incident highlights the Democrats' flawed priorities. Declining test scores, especially in Democrat-controlled areas, demonstrate a failure of the Department of Education since its inception. The involvement of the teacher's union chairman further underscores this failure. This low-budget attempt at insurrection is pathetic; if this is their best effort for the next four years, we're in good shape.

Don't expect sympathy from me when Republican parents face issues with public schools. If rural schools shut down due to lack of funding, or if special needs children stop receiving necessary services, I won't listen to complaints from those who voted for Trump. It's time for these parents to confront the consequences of their choices. They will need to find solutions on their own, whether that means homeschooling or realizing that vouchers won't cover private school costs. This is the reality they wanted, and I don't want to hear their grievances.

Donald Trump is making numerous appointments and sharing his plans frequently, but there's no need to engage with his divisive rhetoric. He talks about shutting down the Department of Education, which would have severe consequences for special education, but he hasn't taken action yet. The process to shut it down is complex, and there are ways to make it more difficult for him. I'm consulting with legal experts to develop strategies, and I will share those plans with everyone. Together, we can work to counteract his proposals. There is still hope, and we will make it challenging for him to implement his agenda. Stay strong.

Let's be clear: Elon Musk, the world's wealthiest man, contributed heavily to Donald Trump's election. Since then, his wealth has skyrocketed, and he's now targeting USAID, a vital program aiding the world's poorest. This is unacceptable. His next targets will likely be programs impacting families directly—Medicaid, Medicare, education, affordable housing, and more. We must fight back. This country is a democracy; our government should work for everyone, not just billionaires. Let's organize and tell Trump that this isn't right. We can stop this. We can protect these essential programs and ensure a government that serves all its citizens. Let's stand together and fight for what's right. Thank you.

On day 1, I will sign an executive order to cut federal funding for schools promoting critical race theory, transgender issues, or inappropriate content for children. I will not fund schools with vaccine or mask mandates and will protect women's sports from male participation. Thank you.

The administration is fighting to remove critical race theory from school districts. Children will be taught to love America, be patriots, and embrace civic values to receive federal taxpayer funding. As the Department of Education closes and funding shifts to states, the administration will ensure funds are not used to promote communist ideology. A nation cannot teach its children to hate themselves or their country to be successful.

The Department of Education has over 4,000 employees with an average salary exceeding $144,000. The Trump administration considered laying off half the department. The department's mission is to provide student achievement and prepare for global competitiveness. US test scores are declining; in 2022, the US ranked 16th in science, 9th in reading, and 34th in math, and scores have fallen since 2018. The Department of Education funds schools with $80-85 billion in loans and grants, but often with strings attached, such as critical race theory and gender ideology. Shutting down the Department of Education would return that money to the states, which could then fund school choice programs. This would allow parents in low-income neighborhoods to move their children to better schools, creating a competitive market. The speaker believes this would be better for children and the country, despite the political opposition.

I'm speaking to Republicans today. Watch your checking accounts, savings, investments, healthcare, social services, education, and food programs. Trump, Musk, and their followers are coming after you to line their own greedy pockets. Social programs, healthcare, food, and social services are being cut to create tax breaks for the wealthy. Many of you thought voting for Trump was a joke to stick it to the liberals, but now he's laughing all the way to the bank. We Democrats are going to do everything we can to save this country. It is that serious, and we will help save you too.

I'm Representative Jamie Thompson. The Department of Education is requiring schools to remove programs promoting DEI, social emotional learning (SEL), and critical race theory (CRT) or risk losing federal funding. The deadline for removal has passed. Parents, if these programs still exist in your child's school, you can take action. Search on Google for "Department of Education letter to my colleague." This letter details the executive order and its impact, effectively notifying the school of the risk to their federal funding if they don't eliminate these programs. Stay informed and proactive about your child's education. If you have questions, contact me anytime.

The Department of Education is allegedly staffed by radical left Marxist bureaucrats who are hostile to Western civilization, American interests, and the nation's founding documents. These individuals are purportedly using their positions to force agendas such as radical gender ideology, critical race theory, and diversity, equity, and inclusion on American students and children. This allegedly takes away parents' ability to control their children's education. The plan under President Trump is to return authority to the local level, allowing parents to control outcomes, while ensuring that no federal funds support racism, gender ideology, or other ideas offensive to the American taxpayer.
