And on to the next atrocity: Trump administration to seek merger of Education, Labor departments June 20, 2018 7:23 pm RL

https://www.politico.com/story/2018/06/20/merger-education-labor-departments-641084
Of course the actual goal is to eliminate both…

The Trump administration plans to advocate a merger of the Education and Labor departments as part of a sweeping government overhaul, according to two individuals familiar with the proposal who declined to be named because it’s not yet public.

The new combined agency, if approved by Congress, would be part of a broader government reorganization plan that could be announced as soon as Thursday, POLITICO reported. Mick Mulvaney, director of the OMB, has been working on the reorganization plan since his confirmation more than a year ago.

The Education Department didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.

The plan, if undertaken by the administration, would pose a heavy political and legislative lift. Past attempts to eliminate the Education Department haven’t proven popular in Congress.
