According to reports, President Donald Trump is ready to sign an executive order to eliminate the Department of Education (DOE). This will essentially return education oversight to the states, where it should be!

It was originally believed that Trump would issue orders to break down the agency from within, however, it now appears that he will attempt to outright abolish it and be done. To fully abolish the agency, he will need Congress to approve. An executive order will severely limit the department’s role.

The planned order follows years of campaign promises from Trump to shut down the Education Department. “One other thing I’ll be doing very early in the administration is closing up the Department of Education in Washington D.C., and sending all education and education work and needs back to the states,” Trump declared in a 2023 campaign video.

Conservatives argue that Washington’s influence over local schools has only led to worse outcomes. “In total, American society pours more than $1 trillion a year into public education systems, but instead of being at the top of the list, we are literally right smack — guess what — at the bottom,” Trump said at the time.

The reported executive order follows last week’s move by Trump to expand school choice, directing the Education Department to provide new guidance on using federal funds to support private and charter schools. The order gives states more freedom to allocate education dollars, a major win for Republican governors.

The GOP believes that school choice is important and wants parents to be able to take the reigns back. This would give families in lower income areas the option to leave failing schools.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau gave into President Donald Trump’s demands last minute! The two struck a deal on Monday night, which will give the North American country a 30-day reprieve from tariff penalties in exchange for a border security overhaul worth $1.3 billion. In addition there are new measures in place to curb both illegal immigration and fentanyl trafficking.

A confirmation of the agreement was posted on Trudeau’s social media that read, “I just had a good call with President Trump. Canada is implementing our $1.3 billion border plan — reinforcing the border with new choppers, technology and personnel, enhanced coordination with our American partners, and increased resources to stop the flow of fentanyl. Nearly 10,000 frontline personnel are and will be working on protecting the border.”

He added, “In addition, Canada is making new commitments to appoint a Fentanyl Czar, we will list cartels as terrorists, ensure 24/7 eyes on the border, launch a Canada- U.S. Joint Strike Force to combat organized crime, fentanyl and money laundering. I have also signed a new intelligence directive on organized crime and fentanyl and we will be backing it with $200 million.”

Trump also confirmed the agreement on Truth Social. He wrote, “Canada has agreed to ensure we have a secure Northern Border, and to finally end the deadly scourge of drugs like fentanyl that have been pouring into our Country, killing hundreds of thousands of Americans.”

He continued, “Canada will implement their $1.3 Billion Border plan, and as per Prime Minister Trudeau, will be, “reinforcing the Border with new choppers, technology and personnel, enhanced coordination with our American partners, and increased resources to stop the flow of fentanyl. Nearly 10,000 frontline personnel are, and will be, working on protecting the Border. In addition, Canada is making new commitments to appoint a Fentanyl Czar, we will list cartels as terrorists, ensure 24/7 eyes on the Border, launch a Canada-U.S. Joint Strike Force to combat organized crime, fentanyl and money laundering. I have also signed a new intelligence directive on organized crime and fentanyl, and we will be backing it with $200 million.”

Trump concluded, “As President, it is my responsibility to ensure the safety of ALL Americans, and I am doing just that. I am very pleased with this initial outcome, and the Tariffs announced on Saturday will be paused for a 30 day period to see whether or not a final Economic deal with Canada can be structured. FAIRNESS FOR ALL!”

Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) leader Elon Musk believes that he can help cut the United States deficit in half next year, which would essentially lower costs for Americans on nearly all fronts.

In the clip below, you can hear Musk optimistically exclaim, “I think we can take a trillion dollars out of the out of the deficit next year.”

He continued, “We have a $2 trillion deficit, which is a far in excess of economic growth. If we can get that deficit in half, from 2 trillion to 1 trillion, and we can get the economic growth to match that 1 trillion growth in the money supply, that means there will be no inflation.”

“Interest rates will drop, credit card interest down, mortgage interest down, car payment interest down, and prices at the store stay the same,” Musk explained the effect it’ll have on Americans. “That is a great outcome for people and I think we can do it.”

On Monday, White House Director of Communications Steven Cheung slammed former Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz as a “cuck” after he suggested that President Donald Trump isn’t actually in control, and the person that is – is doing a bang up job.

He posted to X, “Elon Musk is a terrible president.” Hilarious because Walz will never even have a chance to be president.

Cheung popped back immediately, “Tim Walz is a cuck.”

“Cuck” is a derogatory term to describe a weak, submissive man. Personally, I find it fitting to describe Walz. Apparently the White House did too, because Cheung’s response was retweeted by the official Trump White House Rapid Response account.

Adding salt to the wound, The Trump War Room also jumped in and replied, “Who are you?”

Senior Trump adviser Jason Miller also quipped, “Sir, this is an Arby’s…”

Rep. Nancy Mace wasn’t going to let the boys have all the fun! She asked, “Did you run out of boys’ bathrooms to put tampons in?” The remark appeared to reference the ongoing political debate over gender identity policies in schools.

What a feud.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has bowed to pressure, announcing that she agreed to deploy 10,000 troops to the U.S. border following a “productive” call with former President Donald Trump.

This is significant.

Sheinbaum shared the following (translated) statement on X, “We had a respectful and constructive conversation with President Trump regarding our relationship and sovereignty. We reached several agreements:

1. Mexico will immediately bolster its northern border with 10,000 National Guard troops to combat drug trafficking, particularly fentanyl.
2. The United States will work to stop the flow of high-powered weapons into Mexico.
3. Our teams will begin joint efforts on two main fronts: security and trade.
4. The U.S. has agreed to pause tariffs for one month.”

This development follows hours after Trump outlined his conditions for lifting tariffs on Mexico.

Vice President JD Vance defended President Donald Trump’s comments regarding diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) hiring practices being related to the horrible plane crash in DC on Wednesday night.

During an interview with Fox News’s “Sunday Morning Futures” with Maria Bartiromo, Vice said that the president was not “blaming anybody” but rather suggesting that the hiring practices are what led to traffic controllers being short-staffed that night when a military helicopter crashed into a commercial airliner carrying passengers.

“The president made very clear that he wasn’t blaming anybody, but he was being very explicit about the fact that DEI policies have led our air traffic controllers to be short-staffed. That is a scandal. Thankfully, it’s a scandal that the president has stopped,” Vance said when Bartiromo asked if there was any proof of the staff working that night being “DEI hires.”

"You've got to have the right people in air traffic control."

He continued on to say that it is important to “investigate everything” and then added, “but let’s just say the person at the controls didn’t have enough staffing around him or her because we were turning people away because of DEI reasons.”

“There is a very direct connection between the policies of the last administration and short-staffed air traffic controllers,” he said.

According to Ukrainian President Zelensky, Ukraine only received a fraction of the funds that the United States government allegedly sent them. Out of the $177 billion in aid that was supposedly send out, Zelensky said that he only received about $75 billion of it.

He said, “I don’t know where all this money is… we never received it.”

So what’s going on? Is it possible this is another score for the conspiracy theorists who claimed that sending almost $200 billion to Ukraine for a war we have no dog in was nothing more than a money laundering scheme?

News 18 reports:

The revelation came after US President Donald Trump’s administration froze virtually all foreign aid with the exception of Israel and Egypt. However, Zelenskyy had then said that the US had not “stopped” military aid for Ukraine.

However, in an interview with the Associated Press, the Ukrainian President said he received less than half of what was approved by the US and he was unaware of where those funds went. “When I hear – both in the past and even now – from the US that America has provided Ukraine with hundreds of billions (of dollars), as the president of a nation at war, I can tell you – we’ve received more than $75 billion,” he said.

Zelenskyy refuted reports that Ukraine had received $200 billion from the US to support its war effort against Russia. “So, when people talk about $177 billion or even $200 billion, we’ve never received that. We’re talking about tangible things because this aid didn’t come as cash but rather as weapons, which amounted to about US$70 billion,” he added.

However, Zelenskyy expressed gratitude for US support during the war, saying the aid did not come as cash but rather as weapons. “But when it’s said that Ukraine received $200 billion to support the army during the war – that’s not true. I don’t know where all that money went,” he told AP.

Zelenskyy also emphasised to the US the importance of maintaining veteran and healthcare programmes during wartime. “Perhaps the US President’s administration will audit these programmes and find additional billions, but I don’t know where those funds went,” he added.

If Ukraine only received $75 billion, then where did the rest of the BILLIONS go? Someone needs to start checking the bank accounts of our “trusty” lawmakers.
