The dismantling of the Department of Education. Let me go ahead and break it down. Come on, talk about it. You got a whole bunch of people who think that these kids who don't get food at home will no longer get food at school because there is no DOE. First of all, it's the Department of Agriculture that handles the school meal. So there's still no child that's going to be left hungry. The next thing that I heard was that, oh my god, they're going to get rid of the Pell Grant and all of these other things so that HBCUs are going to suffer and kids who can't afford school aren't going to be able to go to school. Those instances, that subset of issues is going to be moved over to the Department of Treasury and they're going to handle your new Pell Grants and your student aid and things like that. And then they'll say things like, oh my god, well, they're not going to fund disabilities or the IEP programs. That's being moved over to the Department of Health and Human Services. So if more black people knew that, we wouldn't have this uproar about the DOE going. And then let me also tell y'all that the DOE only pays for-- Thank you for touching on that. Thank you for touching on that. Yeah, the DOE only pays for 10% of K through 12 schools. It's only 10% of the funding. And you genuinely believe that your state cannot recover 10% of funds to give to the DOE, to give to the school system, which they already barely give money to. Sweetheart, you are sadly mistaken. And at that point, that's when you have to look at your elected officials and see what are they voting on in these budgets? What are they asking for every fiscal year? Because now with Doge, we're seeing that we're paying millions of dollars to watch shrimp run on Trenton.
