Rep. Takano (D-CA) and House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Democrats visit the Department of Education amid reports that the Trump administration intends to dismantle the department without consulting Congress. They are denied access.

Edit: They updated the body to have one now, I originally had to type it out myself from a hover. They have a different headline on the frontpage as well:

Acting Education Secretary Denise Carter was accused by House Oversight Democrats of locking the front doors to the Department of Education and refusing members of Congress public access. Rep. Mark Takano (D-CA) and members of the House Oversight Committee held a press conference where they demanded a meeting with the acting secretary to discuss the Trump administration's desire to dissolve the department. The members said they wanted to ask the acting secretary in person if she would "comply with an illegal executive order (by President Trump) to shut down the department." Democrats led a call to action urging Americans to get involved and prevent the funds already allocated to the department by Congress from being diverted to other sectors of the federal government, noting public schools and children with special needs were most at risk

I don't think you understand. WE are the only people that can do something. It's to scream at everyone about this. No one knows what's going on, I guarantee that. They did polls about project 2025 and even trumpers were against it. If everyone knew, this would be stopped. Tell everyone in your circle and outside your circle about this shit.
