AdvertisementSince he took office, Trump has called for the dismantling of the Education Department, saying it has been overrun by liberal thinking. via Associated PressAdvertisementWhile the necessity of the department is up for debate, it’s also unclear how well-equipped other state and federal departments are to take over the Education Department’s responsibilities. Here’s what the Education Department currently handles, where its responsibilities will go to other federal agencies and what will stay the same. Student aid so far will be largely unaffected, although McMahon and Trump have suggested it could be better handled by a different federal department. The Education Department also will continue to oversee another major part of higher education: accreditation, which allows colleges to accept students’ federal financial aid.

The inspector general ensures that all programs run efficiently and is tasked with investigating any claims of fraud or abuse. Trump fired the last HHS inspector general, along with over a dozen other government watchdogs, earlier this year — sparking pushback from Senate Democrats who argued Bell’s nomination is unlawful because Trump illegally fired the previous HHS inspector general. Bell later added that, if confirmed, he believes investigating abortion clinics is part of his job as HHS inspector general. AdvertisementIf Bell is confirmed, he joins a long list of deeply anti-abortion Trump nominations across all federal agencies, but particularly HHS. The Senate vote to confirm Bell as HHS inspector general is scheduled for Wednesday morning.

Trump’s Immigration Crackdown Stokes Fear—And Resistance—In Charlotte
North Carolina’s leaders are slamming President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown for “stoking fear,” fueling division and having a chilling effect on residents in the state’s largest city. “Everyone wants to be safe…but the actions of too many federal agents are doing the exact opposite in Charlotte,” said North Carolina Gov. According to the Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Customs and Border Patrol agents were sent to Charlotte beginning on Saturday in an alleged effort to apprehend undocumented immigrants who’ve committed crimes. As of Monday, the agency had arrested 130 people, including multiple undocumented immigrants who’ve been convicted of driving while intoxicated, per a DHS release. Charlotte advocates and leaders, meanwhile, stress that agents are instilling fear in local communities with their violent tactics and racial profiling.
