Trump’s Early Moves, Musk’s Impact, and the Dismantling of the Education Department

This pod­cast cri­tiques the media’s shift­ing nar­ra­tive, claim­ing that just two months ago, the Biden administration’s econ­o­my and spend­ing pack­age were laud­ed, yet now face scruti­ny. It wants to rid the coun­try of Elon Musk’s, after this many ben­e­fi­cial contributions—rescuing strand­ed astro­nauts, deploy­ing Star­link in dis­as­ter zones, and aid­ing Trump’s administration—while they should be con­demn­ing attacks on Tes­la deal­er­ships and prais­ing Musk’s efforts to cut NGO fund­ing, but the con­cern is on the food banks fund­ing but not men­tioned is being fronts for mon­ey fun­nel­ing. It high­lights a USDA halt on food bank deliv­er­ies to six states, ris­ing food costs since COVID, and staged town halls tar­get­ing Repub­li­cans. The pod­cast dis­cuss­es Trump’s upcom­ing exec­u­tive order to elim­i­nate the Depart­ment of Edu­ca­tion, which man­ages a $268 bil­lion bud­get and $1.6 tril­lion in stu­dent loans, argu­ing it bur­dens tax­pay­ers and stems from Obama’s 2010 loan pro­gram takeover. It cri­tiques the department’s inef­fi­cien­cies, bloat­ed bureau­cra­cy, and the lib­er­al left’s han­dling of edu­ca­tion dur­ing COVID, while not­ing the Fed­er­al Reserve’s uncer­tain­ty over tar­iffs. The media’s “tear-jerk­ing” sto­ries about strug­gling fam­i­lies are dis­missed as manip­u­la­tive, with a call to pri­va­tize the econ­o­my and reduce gov­ern­ment over­reach, ref­er­enc­ing his­tor­i­cal shifts under Carter and Oba­ma. The book Who Moved the Cheese? is cit­ed as a metaphor for impend­ing change.

• Trump has been in office just 2 months. The media wants you to believe that just 2 months ago the econ­o­my was the envy of the world. And the Biden spend­ing pack­age was the best thing in the world. 
• Remem­ber the astro­nauts that went for a 1 week trip that last­ed 9 months, Elon Musk and SpaceX res­cued them. Then all the star­links that have been installed in dis­as­ter areas all over the world, star­link is Elon Musk. There are Tes­las vehi­cles and deal­er­ships that have been ter­ror­ized, this is ter­ror­ism. The attacks on Elon for the work he is doing with the Trump admin­is­tra­tion. 
• Elon is going in and stop­ping the pay­ments for the NGOs. And the food banks are the front for the NGOs to fun­nel mon­ey. The reports on the net­works show that the USDA halts mil­lions of dol­lars worth of deliv­er­ies to food banks to six states. 
• Autopen Biden admin­is­tra­tion and the food is up 20% since COVID and now the food banks are stretched thin since then. 
• All the town halls are staged to go scream at repub­li­cans. The audi­ence wants to deport the man that brought the two astro­nauts back from space, the man that installs Star­link to get com­mu­ni­ca­tions up in dev­as­tat­ed areas, the man that has employed thou­sands of peo­ple. But the crim­i­nals that Trump has got­ten out of the coun­try are the judge that is try­ing to stop the depor­ta­tions. 
• Today Don­ald Trump will sign an exec­u­tive order to stop the depart­ment of edu­ca­tion. 
• The Fed said yes­ter­day that they are going to hold the rate. And they are uncer­tain about the future because of the tar­iffs. 
• The net­works are look­ing for the sad­dest sto­ries: the chil­dren are starv­ing because fund­ing has stopped for the food banks, wid­owed mom strug­gling because hus­band sui­cide and she is strug­gling with get­ting va death ben­e­fits, fam­i­lies strug­gling with­out med­ic­aid medicare. They are try­ing to lay out their tear jerk­ing sto­ries. 
• The Depart­ment of Edu­ca­tion has dropped 2000 employ­ees in 2 months. The DOE con­trols a $268B bud­get. Over­sees $1.6T in stu­dent loan debt. Pro­vides 12M stu­dents with grants and loans and work-study pro­grams. The Depart­men­t’s office for civ­il rights enforces laws that aim to pre­vent dis­crim­i­na­tion. Spends rough­ly $33B to pub­lic schools for low income stu­dents and chil­dren with dis­abil­i­ties. Take a look at the states that don’t have the mon­ey to pay teacher retire­ments. These depart­ments shift debt into columns to say they paid it down. What the sto­ries that will come out next week. 
• Learn­ing loss? When did it hap­pen? Would this be the time that the lib­er­al left had chil­dren in day­care with masks on their face because we fol­lowed “sci­ence”. You quar­an­tined them and scared their par­ents. Every­thing has scared the kids and par­ents with 67 shots. They can’t allow the kids to ride the school bus with a par­ent pick up line half a mile from the school. Don’t blame the par­ents for what this evil deep state and lib­er­al left did to these stu­dents. The real stu­dent loan cri­sis is the one Oba­ma cre­at­ed. 10 years ago 27.3% of stu­dent loans were delin­quent. About $1T is owed to the fed­er­al gov­ern­ment. How did the fed­er­al gov­ern­ment become a bank? Where did the tax­pay­ers decide that you were going to front loans? We do have a major tuition prob­lem, because we have these bureau­crat­ic uni­ver­si­ties, these are cities with­in cities. 10 years ago the stu­dent loan debt exceeds the auto loan and cred­it card debt. IN 2010 Oba­ma elim­i­nat­ed the fed­er­al guar­an­teed loan pro­gram, which let pri­vate lenders offer stu­dent loans at low inter­est rates. Now the depart­ment of Edu­ca­tion is the only place to go for such loans. Oba­ma sold this gov­ern­ment takeover as a way to save mon­ey –why bear the costs of guar­an­tee­ing pri­vate loans, he said when the gov­ern­ment could cut out the mid­dle­man and lend the mon­ey itself? It is going to blow up the lib­er­al left when Trump signs this exec­u­tive order. The tax­pay­er will no longer be the bank. Jim­my Carter cre­at­ed the Depart­ment of Edu­ca­tion and Barack Oba­ma took over the stu­dent loans. 
• Book: Who Moved The Cheese? 
• There will be a change to pri­va­tize the econ­o­my. In 2008 and Oba­ma became the pres­i­dent, the fastest grow­ing area in the Unit­ed States was North­ern Vir­ginia coorador. 25% of gov­ern­ment spend­ing is in that cir­cle around DC.
