Trump wants to end the Dept. of Education


Do you have a quote for that or are you exaggerating?

Senate Intelligence Committee Advances DNI Nominee Tulsi Gabbard in 9-8 Vote

All that's left is the Senate vote which she is sure to win.

Now in addition to the Panama Canal and Greenland, Trump wants to take over Gaza and force all the residents out.

Might as well let Russia have Ukraine, and China have Taiwan. Trump setting the example.

Today he said about his new, as yet unconfirmed appointee to head the DOE that he hopes she'll soon no longer have a job.

It will be interesting to see what Federal programs remain intact after four years of Trump's proposed budget slashing and returning power to the states.

Trump wants to end the Dept. of Education and give full autonomy to the states: no doubt he'll want to turn of the spigot of federal dollars.

Hello, inequality: good schools in NH, rotten schools in Mississippi.

Then there's social and health services: cut off the spigot, leave it to the states; will he truncate medicaid?

If not, why not?

Like him or not, change is afoot.


We already have better schools in some states than others. Getting rid of the Dept of Education is a no-brainer. For one it is unconstitutional. For two it has not made any improvement in schools since its founding. In many way education is worse. For sure it is more costly.

Axe it. That is what happens when you fail in the real world.

Is Trump ordering an audit of Ukraine?


I'd like to see how much our politicians are getting of the Ukraine cash (and big pharma cash) in their non-profit they have a board seat on.

I'd pass an executive order to allow auditing of non-profits.

Trump to attend Super Bowl. Believe it or not, first POTUS to do so unless you count the fictional POTUS attending in the thriller movie "Black Sunday." A few left wingers already going crazy and even more upset that "End Racism" will not be one of the end zone messages.

Abolish the Federal Reserve.

Both USAID and the Federal Reserve have deceptive names.

Folks wanting taxpayer funds so they sweeten the names.


The IRS is the collecting arm of the Federal Reserve and have nothing to do with the USA other than manage a monopoly.

We didn't used to have to pay income taxes because we didn't have a Federal Reserve, which is not Federal and they have no Reserves.


USAID is mostly Aid to corrupting other folks and Aid to corrupting politicians.
