Good pick. Hopefully she eliminates the DoE and at least 80% of all public universities.

I hope she dismantles the fricking building.

And then, hands every illegal a piece of it and tell them they can't put it down until they reach TJ.

This had to be a headfake pick to negotiate someone else. I personally don't care about the pick, but the senate is going to have a collective aneurysm over it.

Personally I'm fine with all these picks so far. These department heads don't need to have detailed experience in the department or even the general subject matter if we're being honest.

The department heads need the ability to identify deputies and sub-deputies capable of carrying out the President's agenda and the leadership abilities to hold them accountable

It's the thousands of people two, three, four, and five levels below cabinet secretaries that are going to make or break Trump's agenda.

I thought you meant Dept. of Energy and did a wtf.

She seems equally unqualified for this one, but I like it. All I need her to do is swing the axe left and right and roto root that place before destroying it.

Wasn't she part of the last administration? Something to do with Small Businesses?

I want the DOE to be nothing more than a bad memory by this time next year. And frick that count Randy weingarten and her mob teacher’s union.

I remember what you did during Covid.

Elon, Vivek, Trump they have all said its going to be stripped down and maybe some functions like Pell Grants etc administered from the fed level, but the rest will be trimmed and sent to the states.

They should also stop federally secured student loans, thats a state issue now, the universities will quickly fix that fiasco.

You are gonna need someone very hard nosed to do it. With Trump's previous administration, Betsy DeVos had the largest security detail. You will be breaking the union or severely weakening it.

Trump said the two biggest lobbying bodies, lawyers and teachers union.
I dont doubt the union was the biggest threat to DeVos and I mean literally, and it will be far greater now.
