Trump Republicans hate the Department of Ed for the same reasons they hate education. They view education as a waste of funds since it exposes their fraud and prevents their abuse of American minds through their outlets of disinformation. Trump Republicans want a country of believers, not thinkers.

Vaccinated kids at 57% to 73% lower risk of long #COVID, CDC study suggests
The protection against long COVID from vaccination is likely even higher, because the estimates don't account for prevention of infection by vaccination, the authors say.
