Trump proposes education overhaul in Wisconsin

During a rally in Wisconsin, former President Donald J. Trump outlined his vision for a significant overhaul of the federal government. He proposed the elimination of the Department of Education and indicated plans to redirect the Justice Department's efforts. Trump also expressed intentions to dismiss civil servants who implement policies from the Biden administration that he opposes. His speech was characterized by a mix of policy proposals and personal jabs at political opponents, including Vice President Kamala Harris. Trump's remarks included a controversial suggestion to modify the 25th Amendment, making it an impeachable offense for a vice president to conceal a president's incapacity. This proposal, while unlikely to gain traction, reflects Trump's ongoing critique of the current administration's leadership. He emphasized a commitment to reducing government size and influence, claiming it would be the first meaningful reduction in 60 years. Additionally, Trump announced that Robert F. Kennedy Jr., known for his vaccine skepticism, would play a significant role in addressing health issues, particularly concerning chronic health problems and childhood diseases. This partnership highlights Trump's strategy to align with figures who share his skepticism towards established health policies. Overall, Trump's speech signals a potential shift in federal governance should he return to office, with a focus on consolidating power within the executive branch and dismantling existing federal structures. His proposals resonate with his base, who have long supported his calls to 'Drain the Swamp' and reduce federal bureaucracy.
