Sounds great. A purging of administrators and professors that indoctrinate and stifle free speech would be amazing.

He should purge all the layers of fat in government as well.

Aren't most colleges run by the state (or are private)? If so, isn't he stepping on the states toes on how they want to run their colleges.

He can deny student loans to schools that don't meet certain criteria, but to fire state employees, I don't know about.

He saying he will go after the accreditation system, not the colleges directly

Yep, the "accreditors" must be federal employees, otherwise how could he fire them?

Kristi Noem to be director of homeland security.
Musk and Ramaswarmy heading up DOGE.
Decorated vet and Harvard/Princeton grad Hegseth taking over as Secretary of Defense.
That border czar dude is gonna be a force.
Rubio as Secretary of State. I'm on the fence about him.

Bot a DEI hire in the bunch - people with resumes and experience. WEIRD! REFRESHING!

So far, I like these moves. This could be a very powerful admin.

They are not federal employees, accreditation is carried out by organizations and businesses, I believe some are nonprofit others profit. There's regulations carried out by the federal government, we love regulations, probably the department of education, a well loved regulatory agency. Believe that would be the angle, trump uses the term fire liberally
