InfluenceWatch Podcast #345: Department of Ed’s Billion-Dollar Failure


As the incoming second Trump administration prepares to target government waste with the “Department of Government Efficiency” commission and activists hope that Trump’s administration will root divisive left-wing racial ideologies out of government, Parents Defending Education has released a report relevant to both. The advocacy group identified $1 billion in federal grants from the Biden Department of Education to school districts, universities, and other groups for diversity, equity, and inclusion-related hiring and programming and social-emotional learning. Joining us to discuss the findings is Michele Exner, senior advisor at Parents Defending Education.
