Rep. Takano (D-CA) and House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Democrats visit the Department of Education amid reports that the Trump administration intends to dismantle the department without consulting Congress. They are denied access.
Edit: They updated the body to have one now, I originally had to type it out myself from a hover. They have a different headline on the frontpage as well:
Acting Education Secretary Denise Carter was accused by House Oversight Democrats of locking the front doors to the Department of Education and refusing members of Congress public access. Rep. Mark Takano (D-CA) and members of the House Oversight Committee held a press conference where they demanded a meeting with the acting secretary to discuss the Trump administration’s desire to dissolve the department. The members said they wanted to ask the acting secretary in person if she would “comply with an illegal executive order (by President Trump) to shut down the department.” Democrats led a call to action urging Americans to get involved and prevent the funds already allocated to the department by Congress from being diverted to other sectors of the federal government, noting public schools and children with special needs were most at risk
I don’t know if you looked at the congress lately, but the r’s control everything. The r’s legally cheated with probably some backdoor fuckery. Ignore the emails and focus on screaming loud enough at the r’s that they walk this shit back or the people who are against this sort of shit (most of America) screams louder.
Do you know that I had to type out the headline and body of this text because CSPAN wouldn’t offer it in a way to copy and paste? Salon was the only other place to say anything about this. We are in trouble, for fucking real. Don’t start going after the dems, start screaming to everyone you know because I guarantee that they don’t know this is happening.
Edit: From the salon article: “Inside the building a group of men linked to Musk’s DOGE operation are reportedly accessing student data,…”
They now have all of our education, financial and personal records.
