If there’s one thing liberals love, it’s clinging to the suffocating grip of federal control—and nothing exemplifies this more than their near-religious devotion to the Department of Education. Yet, for once, the tide of blind allegiance has been questioned by an unexpected voice: Whoopi Goldberg.
This is a woman who has railed against every policy Trump ever touched, yet here she is, acknowledging the undeniable truth. The Department of Education, that bloated bureaucratic nightmare, needs to be dismantled. It’s a shocking admission for her fanbase, but truth has a funny way of surfacing where you least expect it.
Goldberg dared to suggest what every parent and taxpayer knows deep down: More local control over education could be a game-changer. Just think about it. Instead of submitting our kids’ futures to a faceless federal entity, why not let individual states and communities decide what’s best for them? And why not hold our local governments accountable for real results?
HOLY SMOKES: Whoopi Goldberg just did the unthinkable—she backed one of Trump’s fiercest ideas live on The View.
Dismantling the Department of Education.
The panel was stunned. ABC producers quickly cut to commercial.
And no, this isn’t satire.

Perhaps the left should pause and consider this question that Goldberg seemed to ponder: Why are we letting Washington bureaucrats decide the educational fate of our children? Leaving education to states could force real accountability, push for curriculum customization, and protect against the uniformity and mediocrity that federal oversight has delivered.
We are talking about the future of our children, for crying out loud. Local power does not mean chaos. It means freedom. It means letting parents have a true voice. It means innovation. Isn’t that the real American way?
Those dismissing Goldberg should ditch the emotional outrage and wake up to how disastrously the current system has failed our kids. Even the predictable leftists couldn’t shield themselves from reality forever. So, let’s take a leaf out of the least-expected playbook: maybe it’s time to give power back to the people.
Shouldn’t we at least try something that puts students and families first for once?
