Education Secretary Linda McMahon will testify before a Senate Appropriations Committee panel Tuesday morning on President Trump’s fiscal 2027 budget request for the mostly shuttered Education Department. The department has been on the chopping block since Trump returned to the Oval Office last year. The administration has shifted many of its programs to other federal agencies including the Small Business Administration as well as the Health and Human Services and State departments in an effort to “to break up the federal education bureaucracy and return education to the states.” The latest budget requests $76.5 billion for fiscal 2027, a $2.3 billion decrease from the 2026 enacted level. #education #trump #senate

The hearing comes just weeks after NASA completed its Artemis II mission — the first crewed moon mission in more than 50 years — which took the four-person crew further into space than ever before. #nasa #budget #senate

What he is saying: "Iran has just informed us that they are in a 'State of Collapse'. They want us to 'Open the Hormuz Strait' as soon as possible, as they try to figure out their leadership situation (Which I believe they will be able to do!)" Trump wrote on Truth Social.
