The Department of Education is about to get a whole lot smaller, following a Supreme Court ruling this week that the Trump administration can move forward with its mass layoffs plan. President Trump acknowledged the ruling as a tentative victory for education in America; however, the campaign to end the Education Department will still need authorization from Congress. In her interview with the Rundown, U.S. Education Secretary Linda McMahon directly addresses the concerns she has heard about ending the department and advocates for why the process could yield a better education system that works for all Americans.

While the housing market has slowed in many areas, it remains unaffordable for numerous Americans, particularly first-time buyers. The average age of home buyers is now thirty-eight, as the high costs of homeownership and rising mortgage rates have deterred younger individuals from entering the market.

Plus, commentary from FOX News Contributor Joe Concha.
