The Constitutional Reset: How Trump Is Returning Education to the States

https://wallbuilders.com/teachers-conference/

Donald Trump has taken an unprecedented step toward restoring constitutional order by dismantling the Department of Education—a goal conservatives have pursued for over four decades. This executive order represents more than just fulfilling a campaign promise; it's a fundamental realignment with the Constitution's original intent, where education authority belongs to the states, not the federal government.

The historical context makes this moment particularly significant. The Department of Education barely came into existence in 1979, passing by just one vote under President Carter despite massive Democratic majorities in Congress. Even Ronald Reagan, despite his desire to eliminate it, couldn't overcome political fears of being labeled "anti-education." Trump's willingness to take this bold action despite inevitable political backlash demonstrates remarkable courage and commitment to constitutional principles.

This development comes alongside encouraging shifts in the judiciary. Federal appeals courts are beginning to overturn lower court rulings that block Trump's agenda based on judges' personal opinions rather than constitutional law. The Fourth Circuit recently delivered a pointed rebuke to a district judge who opposed Trump's cancellation of DEI programs based on personal preference, stating that a judge's policy views are "not only irrelevant to fulfilling our duty to adjudicate cases according to the law, it's an impermissible consideration."

Public support for Trump's direction remains impressively strong. CBS polling after the State of the Union revealed 76% viewer approval, with commanding majorities supporting his specific policies—77% approved his immigration plans, 77% backed his approach to government spending, and 68% supported his inflation strategy. These numbers transcend party lines, showing significant support from independents and even some Democrats.
