0:00.0 | After decades of GOP talk about shutting down the federal Department of Education, the Supreme Court has given the Trump administration the go-ahead to dramatically downsize the department. |
0:11.9 | The drastic staff reduction is another big step toward what team Trump hopes will be the department's complete dissolution. |
0:18.3 | In this episode, we sit down with legal experts Sarah |
0:21.1 | Partial Perry to discuss the significance of the high court's ruling and how the fate of the |
