Chuck Schumer's Progressive Judges & Trump's Plan to Eliminate the Department of Education

Schumer's Judicial Strategy

• 🎯 Chuck Schumer is highlighted for boasting about appointing 235 progressive judges during the previous year.
• 💡 These judges are described as being not under Trump's control and are actively ruling against the former president's policies.
• ⚖️ There is an expressed hope that appellate courts and the Supreme Court will uphold these progressive rulings.

Perceived Bias in Institutions

• 🎭 The mask of objectivity in institutions like the media, intelligence agencies, and courts is seen as having fallen.
• ⚠️ Schumer's past statement about intelligence agencies having ways to retaliate is recalled, suggesting a lack of impartiality.
• 📈 Over half of nationwide federal injunctions since 1963 have been directed at President Trump, suggesting a pattern of judicial opposition.
• 🚫 Actions by Joe Biden, such as attempting to issue an amendment via tweet and proceeding with student loan cancellations despite constitutional concerns, are cited as examples of executive overreach that are not uniquely directed at Trump.

Trump's Initiative to Eliminate the Department of Education

• 🏛️ President Trump has signed an executive order to eliminate the Department of Education, a move 45 years in the making.
• 🏫 The stated goal is to return education to the states, which is presented as a common-sense and popular initiative.
• 📊 Despite Trump's promise, a Fox poll shows only 32% support for this move, indicating a need for better messaging.

Empowering Parents and States in Education

• 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 The initiative is framed as less about abolishing the department and more about empowering parents and states.
• ✊ The rise of the parental rebellion, particularly since COVID-19, is noted as a significant factor, exemplified by Glenn Youngkin's victory in Virginia.
• 🏠 Parents gained a closer look at what their children were being taught during remote learning, leading to increased engagement.
• 📉 Despite a significant increase in spending per pupil since the 1970s (over 245%), test scores have stagnated or declined, with 13-year-olds struggling with basic reading and math skills.
• ✅ The move is seen as a way to get rid of bureaucracy for the benefit of parents and children's education.
