Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Trump Signs Order to Dismantle Department of Education, Faces Legal Pushback
Caption:
Trump Signs Order to Dismantle US Department of Education. U.S. President Donald Trump has signed an executive order to begin dismantling the Department of Education calling it a "breath-taking failure" and pledging to return its funding to individual states. While the move fulfills a key campaign promise, fully closing the agency will require congressional approval. Legal challenges are already underway to block the closure and recent staff cuts. At a White House event surrounded by children, Trump criticized U.S. education spending, saying students rank poorly despite high costs. He praised Education Secretary Linda McMahon and hinted she’ll take on a new role, hoping she’ll be the department’s last leader.
