And if he was forced to maintain the department, Congress could not stop him from minimally staffing it and basically making it ineffective.

The goal was to turn that money around to the states and let them administer it so that goal would not be achieved (unless he doubles DoEd spending).
But I'd do like I said earlier in the thread: put them to picking strawberries and deport the illegals picking strawberries. The strawberry growers can then reimburse the gov't for the labor.

Yes sir! There’s more than one way to skin a cat

But this judge thinks he can.
That’s almost exactly the judge’s argument.

Exactly! That’s what I’ve been arguing with the other poster about. There may be a certain number of high-level positions demanded by Congress, but they are in no position to demand staffing at a level they determine

You can jury rig the staffing all you want, but the money stays put unless Congress acts.
I say he should go vindictive to cause a ruckus and force Johnson to respond, but unless Johnson passes a bill clawing back and re-authorizing the moving of that money, the real goal is not achieved.
ETA: this is one of DOGE's recommendations regarding waste, fraud, and efficiency. So while everyone is throwing a fit about the new budget bill, here we are with cosmetic changes regarding staffing but not achieving the real goal of being able to cut $ via improved efficiency by transferring down to the states. It is because Congress sat on their hands.

I thought they were going to do away with DOE? There’s no where to go back to…

Speaking of which, did this current budget proposal passed by the House of Representatives include funding for the department of education?

Best I can tell Dept of Ed funding went up 19.1 billion (1.06%).
Here's the ETA I sprung on you:

Move what's left of the Dept of Ed to Minot, ND then.
Move all of the offices to inner cities. The most Democrat run areas. Detroit, Chicago, NO.

Disappointing!
They could have easily just defunded the Dept of Ed and thus cut the lawyers/judges out of the picture altogether for staffing and then turned right around directing the executive to send the exact same money to the states.
It would have reached the objective and next year when the efficiency kicks in, cut that amount.
The goal is better service for less money by increasing efficiency (losing the federal bloat to start with).

So judiciary runs the executive now huh?

LOL. Except it isn't and the judiciary has a doctrine of justicisbility specifically avoiding doing so.
