Nothing That The Department of Education Has Done Has Been Useful
Tony is live from CPAC in Washington D.C.! Tony is joined by Erika Donalds of the America First Policy Institute and wife of representative Byron Donalds, to talk about the Department of Education.
Education is everything, or at least so we’re told. If we listen to the people who tell us you can’t do any cuts to the Department of Education, it has to be what it always was. These people who believe in enshrining the institutions for the sake of having the institutions that they’ve always had, not necessarily for what it is the institution is supposed to do. If we have a Department of Education, we’re supposed to have an educated workforce, we’re supposed to take these children and help them grow and understand. We don’t do that. We don’t educate. In many cases, we indoctrinate. And if we take a look at data year over year over year over year over year, we get failure. We don’t get success. We don’t get something to be proud of… Is there anything about the Department of Education that is salvageable?
In my view, there are some things that may continue the student loan portfolio until it’s moved to the private sector could be in Treasury. The Office of Civil Rights is a reasonable use of the federal government and federal oversight, but that could be in Justice. So, there are other agencies. That can oversee some of the critical things that are going to continue, but when it comes to its influence on the academic performance of our children, nothing that it has done has been useful and it can completely go away and have absolutely no effect on students in their classrooms.
