President Donald Trump took a bold step to shrink the federal government by moving to dismantle the Department of Education. Fox News host Judge Jeanine Pirro praised this action on her show “The Five,” calling it a win for American families tired of Washington overreach.
Trump’s executive order starts the process of sending education decisions back to state and local governments. Pirro argued that bureaucrats in Washington don’t know what’s best for kids in Texas, Ohio, or Florida. She said Democrats use labels like “racist” or “extremist” to scare people away from common-sense reforms that put parents in charge.
The move fulfills a key promise Trump made during his 2024 campaign. For decades, conservatives have wanted to close the Education Department, which they see as wasteful and controlling. Pirro reminded viewers that the department was only created in 1980 – proof that America survived just fine without it for over 200 years.
Democrats immediately attacked the decision, claiming it hurts poor students. But Pirro fired back, saying federal programs have failed generations of children while costing taxpayers billions. She pointed to falling test scores and woke school policies as evidence that Washington’s approach isn’t working.
Trump’s order focuses on cutting red tape and returning power to local school boards. Pirro emphasized that moms and dads should decide what their kids learn about gender, race, and American history – not unelected officials. She praised Trump for standing up to teachers’ unions that care more about politics than reading and math.
While the order can’t fully eliminate the Education Department without Congress, it slashes its reach. Pirro called this the first step toward ending one-size-fits-all education mandates. She joked that maybe now schools can focus on actual learning instead of pushing left-wing social agendas.
Some critics worry about student loans and special education funding. Pirro dismissed these fears, saying states can handle those needs better than Washington. She accused the media of spreading doom stories to protect their liberal allies in the education bureaucracy.
This bold move shows Trump keeping his promises, even when the establishment fights back. Pirro urged voters to support leaders who trust local communities over big-government know-it-alls. She finished with a rallying cry: “Let’s make American education great again – starting today!”
