President Donald Trumpwho ran for dismantling the Department of Education during the 2024 presidential elections, it is expected to issue an executive order by inviting a new secretary for education, Linda McMahon, to begin the process of abolishing the agency.

She also tied to diversity, equality and involvement (dei), another target of Trump administration.
The true meaning of Dei is “an opportunity,” Wentarten said, increasingly upset. “So we can create these ladder opportunities. So we can be sure that children can succeed. Poor children, children with disabilities, children who want to go in a career, technological ed, children who are first generation champions to get some scholarship money. This is what the education department does.”
“That’s why so many people are so angry about that,” she insisted, he warms up. “Because they only take away the opportunity from children who do not have them. So billionaires – children of billionaires, they have them, go to private schools. Everyone else, 90% go to public schools. Don’t take away their opportunity.”

Proponent of the Corey Deangelis school election responded to Wentarten’s comments on MSNBC, saying Fox News Digital“Why was Randa Wentbarten not angry about the years of closing schools in the Union control schools? Why is it not angry about the latest reports of the reporting cards of the nation that show decades of loss of learning? Her priorities are all Zabrljani. She sees a school system as a job program instead of educational initiative for children.”
