@pbsnews: On Thursday, President Trump signed an executive order aimed at shutting down the Department of Education, making good on his long-standing promise to do so. Katie Sanders from Politifact fact-checked the details of the executive order and what it means for the future of the department. #Trump #politics #news #factcheck
Am I the only one who refuses to recognize any of the people he's appointed as heads of anything? They're not even qualified to work at Walmart.

I pray to God this ends this Dept entirely. What a horrible idea in the first place. Put into effect by the second worst presidency in history.

We still need to pay additional federal taxes, so I would like to understand where our funds are allocated now.

Why does PBS get any of my tax dollars? If you can’t make money on your own, then you shouldn’t be on the air.

pretty clear Trump has little to no understanding of student loans. no understanding that folks in their '50s and '60s still paying. his "ask your parents" is not going to cut it.

Can they just "transfer" student loans to another agency? that seems illegal.

It is performative and congress does not have the votes. Cutting this department is a horrible injustice to female, poor, English learners, and people with disabilities.
Just like abortion was returned to the states and women’s right got taken away!! Women and babies died
