Ursula Reutin: Trump administration’s approach to dismantling Education Department is ‘harmful’

Washington Attorney General Nick Brown is one of 21 state attorneys as part of a lawsuit to stop President Donald Trump’s attempt to dismantle the Department of Education.

The coalition originally filed the lawsuit on March 13, but after Trump made an announcement on March 21 — that the department must “immediately” transfer student loan management and special education services outside of the department — the coalition is now seeking a court order to immediately stop the mass layoffs and transfer of services.

Co-host of “The Gee and Ursula Show” on 成人X站 Newsradio, Ursula Reutin, believes the Trump administration shouldn’t get rid of the entire education department. She added that the decision could have been made more considerately.

“I think that some of this would go down a whole lot better with more people, on the party that is not in office, if it was both messaged and done in a way that sounded much more judicious and sounded much more like, ‘Hey, we’re going to do this in a thoughtful manner. This is the reason. This is why we’re doing this. We’re not just sending people in and just doing a massive layoff because this is something that we promised. It’s in Project 2025, etc,'” she said.

Can state agencies take over for Education Department?

Ursula referenced that reports a family is suing the Bellingham School District after it allegedly failed to protect their daughter from repeated sexual harassment and did not follow state laws when the incidents were reported.

To which she asked fill-in co-host Greg Tomlin, “A federal coordinator is investigating the district. You’re saying that you think that same thing could be done through the Justice Department?”

He responded that the situation could be handled under existing governmental departments, calling the Department of Education “a massive bureaucracy.”

“I’m not saying that there couldn’t be improvement,” Ursula replied. “I think just the way they’re going about it is not palatable. I think it’s harmful.”
