both headlines in today's Drudge.  ......... <--grains of salt.

Very glad that you included the grains of salt.  Drudge has always exploited fear and hysteria as clickbait, but they’ve gone completely off the deep end in the last few years.  Their headlines got especially ridiculous during Covid and only keep getting more ridiculous.

Here’s a screenshot of Drudge on Nov 4th.  24 hours later, Trump won decisively and swept all the swing states.  “….uhh….whoops….ohh well, on to the next headlines.”  Today they’re stoking fear of nuclear war in Ukraine.  What a total clown show that page has become.

Drudge is cringe now

That would be ideal. It shouldn't exist.

Dept of Ed should be the very first entity completely shuttered. Send education to the states, zero fed involvement in education at any level (exception is mil academies). A lot of people on X are saying IRS is #1, but I think they’re missing the forest through the trees (not that I don’t think the IRS and our tax code doesn’t need a massive overhaul/gutting).

Why do you think it should be shuttered?

Because it is unconstitutional.  The 10th Amendment states: "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."

Education is never addressed in the Constitution, thus it is reserved to the states or to the people.  Either one of those, but not to the Federal government.
