Good point, but will Republicans vote in favor of TFG's order just as they voted for his ridiculous cabinet nominations? Rhiannon12866 Mar 20 #6

I have a relative that has "never read a book in his life" according to his father.

This relative is good at one illegal thing, plagiarism. He's got that one down, or so he thinks.

dump is of this same ilk, a copycat with no mind of his own.

DUMP tRUMP!

They rally on stupidity.

That is exactly why education is so important.

A relative is home schooling the kids. She still doesn't know things like where the apostrophe goes and not the difference between "there" and "their".

Stupid is as stupid does.

I hope these kids realize that mommy is an idiot. Real soon!

Still require an act of congress to eliminate the cabinet level position. Not that this would stop Cantaloupe Caligula from just firing everyone in the department, and use DOGE to remove all funding from it.

And it was President Carter who made the Department of Education into a cabinet level department. He made an effort to streamline the government while he was in office. As an environmentalist, he also created the Department of Energy.
