Trump administration proposes $7.1 billion funding decrease to Education Department

https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/trump-a ... d=61609098
The Trump administration is looking to decrease the Education Department’s funding by $7.1 billion compared to what it was given last year, as part of next year’s proposed budget.


The budget proposal suggests eliminating 29 programs, including after-school and summer programs for students in high-poverty areas, among other things.

How asinine... the school systems here are a joke to begin with, so by all means cut the budget for those schools even more. They have done away with a lot of fine arts programs here to cut their budgets so they can't cut much more.

Well, he said so himself. He loves the uneducated because they’re the ones that made him president. Of course the last thing he wants to improve in America is education. Educated people are threatening to him, they can bring him down. He needs America uneducated to manipulate them to his will.
