Donald Trump is in for a fight if he wants to fully abolish the Department of Education – he might not even be able to legally do it without Congress. But Turning Point USA founder ‪@RealCharlieKirk‬ tells Glenn there are 3 major steps Trump can take to shrink the Department in the meantime and release its grip on our education system. Speaking at AmFest 2024, Charlie and Glenn also discuss what DOGE can do to make a massive difference and whether Republicans have finally come to an agreement on the continuing resolution spending bill.

So, will the Chinese Communist Party attack Taiwan to boost its national morale while America is still weak? This could be China's last chance before 4 more years of Trump or even 8-12 more years of America First policies. So, will the world look very different by New Year's day or, at the latest, January 20th? And how would America respond? Would we destroy Taiwan's superchip factories before China can take them?
