Mark Carney is running on the disconnect-from-America ticket. He said the old relationship with America no longer exists. I kind of guessed as much when Chrystia Freeland said they wanted nukes to aim at the United States. Carney is looking to Europe to save them. Lots of luck, Mark. They’ll rob you blind.

WASHINGTON — The United States Department of Agriculture is assisting the Department of Education in its investigation of California and the state’s law prohibiting school officials from sharing a child’s “gender identity” with parents, The Daily Wire has learned. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins informed California Governor Gavin Newsom of the move in a letter sent Thursday evening, first obtained by The Daily Wire. “This is to inform you that, at the direction of President Donald J. Trump, the United States Department of Agriculture is undertaking a review of its research and other education-related funding in California for compliance with the Constitution, federal laws including Titles VI and IX, and the priorities of the Trump Administration,” Rollins wrote. The USDA secretary told Newsom that her department will be working with other agencies and departments to ensure that California is in compliance with the United States Constitution, federal laws (including Titles VI and IX), and President Donald Trump’s priorities. Specifically, USDA is supporting the Education Department’s investigation into the California Department of Education for violations of the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). “As the ED reported today, FERPA gives parents the right to access their children’s education records, but the California Department of Education has allegedly abdicated the responsibilities FERPA imposes, due to a new California state law that prohibits school personnel from disclosing records about a child’s ‘gender identity’ to that child’s parent,” Rollins wrote.

In a release, the department said that it has reason to believe that numerous local educational agencies in California may be violating FERPA as they socially transition kids in school and hide their activities from parents. Given the number of local educational agencies involved, the Education Department said, it is concerned that CDE is playing a role in the “widespread adoption of these practices.” “Teachers and school counselors should not be in the business of advising minors entrusted to their care on consequential decisions about their sexual identity and mental health. That responsibility and privilege lies with a parent or trusted loved one,” Secretary of Education Linda McMahon said in a statement on Thursday. “It is not only immoral but also potentially in contradiction with federal law for California schools to hide crucial information about a student’s wellbeing from parents and guardians.” “The agency launched today’s investigation to vigorously protect parents’ rights and ensure that students do not fall victim to a radical transgender ideology that often leads to family alienation and irreversible medical interventions,” she added.

Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced Thursday that he’s restructuring the department and terminating tens of thousands of employees. HHS said the moves are being made in accordance with President Donald Trump’s Executive Order, “Implementing the President’s ‘Department of Government Efficiency’ Workforce Optimization Initiative,” according to a press release. “What I found when I came to HHS, is really a sprawling bureaucracy. We have over 100 communications departments — we should have one. We have 40 IT departments, 40 procurement departments, dozens of HR departments,” Kennedy told Daily Wire host Michael Knowles. “And that is where we’re doing the cuts. We’re going down from 82,000 personnel to 62,000.” “We’re keeping the scientists, we’re keeping the front-line providers,” he added. “We trying to do our best, not only to serve as stewards of the taxpayer money, but also to make the agency more efficient.” .@michaeljknowles: “You fired 20,000 bureaucrats. What is this move? It seems like DOGE meets HHS.”@RobertKennedyJr: “What I found when I came to HHS was really a sprawling bureaucracy. We have over 100 communications departments—we should have one.” pic.twitter.com/Cd6GYEzDNg — Daily Wire (@realDailyWire) March 27, 2025 Kennedy’s first round of action will cut around 10,000 positions, which will help save taxpayers $1.8 billion annually. Through early retirement programs and the “Fork in the Road” initiative, the department seeks to eventually downsize to 62,000. “ We’re gonna streamline our agency and eliminate the redundancies and invite everyone to align behind a simple, bold mission,” he said. “We’re gonna save taxpayers nearly $2 billion a year, and we’re gonna return HHS to its original commitment to public health and gold standard science.” “I want everyone who works here to be proud of this agency, to be proud of the work, to feel a renewed inspiration,” he added. HHS outlined the “specific contents” of the restructuring plan, below: Creation of the Administration for a Healthy America (AHA), which will combine multiple agencies — the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health (OASH), Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR), and National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) — into a new, unified entity. This centralization will improve coordination of health resources for low-income Americans and will focus on areas including, Primary Care, Maternal and Child Health, Mental Health, Environmental Health, HIV/AIDS, and Workforce development. Transferring SAMHSA to AHA will increase operational efficiency and assure programs are carried out because it will break down artificial divisions between similar programs. Strengthening the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC): the Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response (ASPR), responsible for national disaster and public health emergency response, will transfer to the CDC, reinforcing its core mission to protect Americans from health threats. New Assistant Secretary for Enforcement: HHS will create a new Assistant Secretary for Enforcement to oversee the Departmental Appeals Board (DAB), Office of Medicare Hearings and Appeals (OMHA), and Office for Civil Rights (OCR) to combat waste, fraud, and abuse in federal health programs. Research and Evaluation for Health Policy: HHS will merge the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation (ASPE) with the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) to create the Office of Strategy to enhance research that informs the Secretary’s policies and improves the effectiveness of federal health programs. Reorganization of the Administration for Community Living (ACL): Critical programs that support older adults and people with disabilities will be integrated into other HHS agencies, including the Administration for Children and Families (ACF), ASPE, and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). This reorganization will not impact Medicare and Medicaid services. Related: Soda Lobby Group American Beverage Denies Paying Influencers To Fight SNAP Restrictions
