The End of the Department of Education? Linda McMahon on The President's Historic Plan
Monday, 6 April, 2026
President Trump isn't giving up on his historic campaign promise to dismantle the U.S. Department of Education. But as the administration works to shift federal programs to other agencies, it is facing legal challenges from states, schools, and teachers' unions. Education Secretary Linda McMahon joins us to discuss the ongoing effort to shutter her own department and why she believes it will benefit schools and students. Plus, she discusses efforts to improve test scores and the pushback she is receiving from her 50-state "History Rocks!" tour, which is intended to teach children civics and celebrate America's 250th birthday. While November is still about seven months away, Republicans are working to break the usual pattern of the party in power losing Congressional seats in midterm elections. While history may not be on their side, the Republican Party nationally has a significantly larger war chest than Democrats. Reince Priebus—former RNC Chairman, former White House Chief of Staff, and FOX News Contributor—breaks down the fundraising battle between the two parties, how redistricting could impact the midterm results, and what the GOP needs to do to hold on to power. Plus, commentary by Jimmy Failla, host of FOX News Saturday Night and FOX News Radio’s "FOX Across America" PHOTO CREDIT: ASSOCIATED PRESS Learn more about your ad choices.
