Trump's Education Agenda: Ending 'Wokeness' and Shifting Schools Right

TL;DR Summary
Donald Trump plans to use federal funding as leverage to eliminate 'wokeness' from American education, targeting lessons on gender identity and structural racism, and abolishing diversity offices. He aims to cut funding for schools that oppose his policies, including those with vaccine mandates or critical race theory teachings. Trump also proposes shutting down the U.S. Education Department and creating a new online university. Critics argue his plans are politically motivated and could harm public education, while supporters believe he can enforce changes through civil rights laws.
