Trump successfully stopped Harris' momentum and, if the polls are accurate, the race is basically a toss up right now.
However, with 3 weeks to go, Trump seems to have hit a wall. Cancelling even friendly appearances, doing weird sh*t, statements that seem more and more extreme, refusing to debate. It's almost like he's not even trying anymore. Whether he's just fatigued or his brain is really fried, it seems like this campaign is a month or two too long for him.
Harris and her team needs to put the pedal to the metal for the next 3 weeks. Non-stop campaigning, keep hitting Trump to put him on the defensive. Keep and/or re-ignite that energy and enthusiasm. Voter turnout is so important, she's got to make people understand that they have to vote.
She's in a good spot right now, but she's got to be her strongest in the next 3 weeks.
Trump says he will close the Education Department, (project 2025). which provides federal funding to public schools, and in the next breath says he will use federal Education Department funding as leverage to control public school curricula in liberal cities.
Fox News host: Ok
How much does Baltimore spend per year on its schools?
What's that got to do with FOX being in the bag for Trump, which was the point of the post you were responding to?

It is an operational redundancy. A private corporation would not have the overlap like this. A smaller federal government is a good concept. Leave more to the states. We obviously cannot afford the bloated federal government we have. Unless you believe that $2 trillion annual deficits are sustainable.

I'm obviously voting for Harris but I've never had it explained to me why we need a federal department of education.

The end of the military war would not mean the end of oppression, persecution and killing of Ukrainians.
Sure it would.
You seem to think that the Russians think like Israelis.
They don't
Something tells me that, if Russia wins, Zelensky will suffer an unfortunate fall from a hotel room window, or succumb to some strange poison found in his blood.

I agree that it's not "needed", but my understanding is that basically every study shows that more/quality education (especially when kids are younger) correlates to more success in basically every metric as adults. A comparatively small investment in preschool/kindergarten can lead to large savings down the road (having critical thinking skills, media literacy, not going to prison, etc.). And the federal government invests this money because if you leave it to Oklahoma they will just decide not to spend any upfront money and their children will be worse off. That being said I don't really buy the idea that if we just keep spending more and more money we will continue to get more and more returns.
we're electing a president who is a member of the axis.
astonishing at how a nation can commit suicide because of the charisma of one guy
That’s not why man. Charisma won it for him in 2016. Sure he still has a small cult following, but, ultimately, people are fed up with the hypocrisy of the Dems. The manufactured autocracy we all had to live through during Covid and the massive woke, DEI push crammed down people’s throats in its wake, the censorship practiced by “big tech” and reinforced by a “60 minutes” more recently, the insurrection at the border and the Democrats unwillingness to take any ownership over the problem they created from Jan 2021-Jan 2024, the mutiny to force Biden out without a proper vetting process, a former, popular president ever so bluntly playing the race card yet again in the most popular swing state (so unbelievably patronizing), a current president flying the Ukraine CEO to the same, said swing state on the US taxpayer dime to propagandize for more war funding while denigrating the current Republican ticket… to make no mention of just how awful USSS protection has been, particularly for Trump.
People smell the bull$hit that is the Democratic Party and they’re fed up and rightfully so. Nobody, save for the much smaller cult now, actually likes Trump. I don’t know a single Trump voter who actually likes the guy. Then again, I don’t know a single voter who actually likes or respects Harris. And respect is part of the problem.

Because the bloated education department in Baltimore is obviously failing?
"Former President Donald Trump said Friday that Fox News staffers helped him write his Al Smith charity dinner speech, in which he cracked jokes and insulted his opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris."

Charter schools solve the problem far more effectively than a bureaucratically hampered Federal department. I’ve been a party to this in real life…
Will Bunch @Will_Bunch It blows my mind that a South African can come to America for our world-class universities, make $250B off U.S. capitalism, then travel to blue-collar towns to say the nation is falling apart
That is not what should blow his mind.
What should blow his mind is that half of America eats that sh!t up and asks for more.

There are a lot of low IQ people in the US. Obviously, we need a federal level agency to monitor their lack of achievement and intellectual failures. That kind of data is important in assessing the nation's health and security.
