The existence of the Dept of Education doesn’t have anything to do with the strength of the bureaucracy but the fact that it is legislatively created and can only be undone with legislation.And that we can agree on. Congress is a joke. They have given a great deal of their power to the Executive Branch so that an army of unelected bureaucrats can basically write laws via regulations as they see fit, and no one know who they are or what regulations they are writing. It really was the end of democracy in America.
The bureaucratic state has such unmatched power that Trump, who is a democratically elected official, cannot even do away with one of the departments he is in charge of, namely the Department of Education.
Meanwhile, the Left says Trump is Hitler?

Not that it stopped him from ending USAID.
Congress created independent agencies with the intent of keeping them out of reach of presidential politics, but Trump decided that doesn’t matter and is exerting complete control over them anyway. That’s another example of him centralizing more power.
