EXCERPT:

WEINGARTEN: “What we're hearing is just complete chaos and, frankly, a whole bunch of cruelty. Because at the end of the day, you can make departments more efficient, and I'm not a big believer in bureaucracy, but this feels like, as Elon Musk said to you, evisceration. So here's a guy who has hundreds of millions of dollars of contracts from these departments, and he's not touching them, but what he's doing is really taking money from kids who really need it in the field and these departments. Yes, they can be much more efficient, but that's what the Education Department does. It gives out money to kids so you can feed them a decent lunch, so we can have, you know, tutors for reading, so you can actually help kids with math problems. That's what's going on right now.”
