Abrego Garcia, Powell v. Trump, Education Battles
from Lost Debate · host The Branch
Ravi dives into the breaking news of the day, from the Trump administration’s continued attacks on due process and the political meddling at the Fed that could tank the economy, to the latest federal funding threats facing universities. He then sits down with Dana Goldstein of The New York Times to unpack the Trump administration’s aggressive intervention in K-12 education, from targeting DEI efforts to threatening Title I funding and issue vague policies around civil rights law. They explore why it’s caused conservatives to flip the script on federal overreach and invoke Brown v. Board to justify crackdowns on local initiatives. Finally, they take a closer look at the rise of Education Savings Accounts, the politics of school choice, and the aftershocks both parties may face from these rapidly evolving education policies.
