Education Secretary Linda McMahon announces mass layoffs at Dept. of Education - 50% of workforce

[LeftofLeft]

Fix it; don’t axe it. That’s the barbarian method.

The fix is going to hurt as much as the axe. No more bloat and more Accountability.

• K-12 spending has surged, yet test scores remain stagnant.
• The federal student loan program has ballooned, creating a debt crisis.
• Catholic and private schools achieve better results while spending far less per student.

Face it, your indoctrination center for the Left is screwed.

The states are in charge of the curriculum.

They aren’t fixing anything and people will realize it quickly.

Eliminating $298B is a nice fix.

Eliminating $298B is a nice fix.

They haven’t come close to that figure. I heard some of the “savings” they’re claiming were actually made under Biden. I guess it’s because Trump considers Biden’s term as his 2nd.

 

[whitehall]

They need to shoot for 100% and then tear down the freaking building.

 

[Independent thinker]

Before anyone asks, yes, this is what we voted for.

Education Secretary Linda McMahon said that mass layoffs—nearly 50 percent—are just a first step toward eliminating the Department of Education and returning power to the states and the parents.

There should be accountability for taking the US down to 36th place in education around the world.

what do they provide? here, listen to a staunch demofk tell you! 6:45 of the video.

Eliminating $298B is a nice fix.

Unless you are a parent in poor schools and that money helps pay for additional teachers and supplies.

Unless you are a parent of a SPED student and that money helps fund programs for disabled students.

Unless you are a student looking to get a Pell Grand to help you go to college or trade school.

Unless you are a student looking to get a Federally subsidized Student Loan to help you go to college or trade school.

Correct.

Have a conversation with your state legislature who runs the school system.

It was created to prevent states from not adopting LA and NYC values in their curriculum.

They other they just sold you and you sucked it up.

In 1980, NYC and LA did not have their woke curriculums. Their initial aim was to repair schools in the Deep South ravaged by racist Democrats. I was attending college in Alabama at the time. Things were so bad, our black student population consisted of mostly those on athletic scholarships because most black students were so poorly educated, they could not pass the tests to get in. Today, that is quite different as the student body is quite diverse.

I don't appreciate your arrogance based on your own ignorance.

name one thing. even the demofk Ford couldn't name one thing, admitted the states already do everything on their own, so please enlighten he and I on what it they did.

.As if we haven't been.

Sometimes the answer is ‘no’. Adults accept them and things like elections. See you in court, NOT breaking into the Capitol.

They try to do things, but the poorer states need help. That’s why it’s said that MAGA votes against its own interests.

Americans are threatened by corrupt Bureaucrats that spend a bloated $298B annually in the name of education and get the following results:

• America- Bottom ranked in math and reading proficiency among industrialized nations
• School bullying is up
• Student on Teacher violence is up

What is DoEd accomplishing with all of that money?

Every time I ask rightwinger that question, he posts a picture of the Russian spies who worked for Biden.

If I understand you correctly, you're admitting that the US Department of Education has been totally worthless and should be handled at the state level.
