Trump prepares EO to close down the unconstitutional federal department of education

You are wrong. If you believe the department to be unconstitutional the remedy is the courts, not the executive branch.

You can repeat your claims over and over.

And until you address the fact that this is a matter of law, and law is interpreted by the judicial branch, you will remain wrong.

Thank you for your unsubstantiated opinion. Unlike you, I have substantiated my claim.

The Secretary of Education oversees spending connected to the Department of Education. Not allocating specific funding is well within the Secretary’s authority.

Elections have consequences . . . go pound sand.

It’s johnkw2 verses decades of Constitutional law. You’ve apparently been pounding that sand since Carter was President. The Constitutional remedy exists: The courts. You should try it sometime.

Oh look, an actual lifelong teacher trying to teach the class, while that one hyperactive class clown in the back pretends to know better. :wink:

The executive fiat will force it into court, and that is how our system works. :wink:

Sounds good to me!

What specific “Constitutional law” are you referring to? As usual, you neglect to substantiate your claim. :roll_eyes:

The President is to fulfill his constitutional duty under Article II to take [c]are that the laws are faithfully executed. Our Constitution is in fact the Supreme Law of the Land.

Allowing a misappropriation of federal revenue is not taking care that the laws are faithfully executed.

You have to bring the suit with an agent that has standing.

Every time Trump farts he gets sued. :rofl:

Pam Bondi ought to issue warrants for those who are openly advocating sedition! See: 18 U.S.C. § 2384

The kids can’t read.

This is directly from the ed.gov site

“No provision of a program administered by the Secretary or by any other officer of the Department shall be construed to authorize the Secretary or any such officer to exercise any direction, supervision, or control over the curriculum, program of instruction, administration, or personnel of any educational institution, school, or school system, over any accrediting agency or association, or over the selection or content of library resources, textbooks, or other instructional materials by any educational institution or school system, except to the extent authorized by law. (Section 103[b], Public Law 96-88)

Thus, the Department does not

establish schools and colleges;
develop curricula;
set requirements for enrollment and graduation;
determine state education standards; or
develop or implement testing to measure whether states are meeting their education standards.*”

Blame the state. Not the fed.

Yeah, they won’t get the funding that comes along with the grants that are usually associated with those recommended teaching strategies, but the feds will not cut off all their funding.

They will still receive the funding they need to ensure access to schools for special needs children and things like that.

No school is told. Teach the way we tell you or you won’t receive any funding at all from us.

They can woke though.

I’ll repeat.

If the kids can’t read, blame THE STATE. THE STATE… sets curriculum and teacher standards. THE STATE sets teacher pay and benefits.
