By Brooke Singman  | Fox News New York prosecutors are requesting a stay until at least 2029 in New York v. Trump, as the president's defense attorneys prepare to move to dismiss the case entirely.   Prosecutors wrote a letter to Judge Juan Merchan on Tuesday, who agreed last week to grant a stay on all deadlines associated with the conviction proceedings against Trump in the final months before he takes office.  Merchan granted the request, which issues a stay on all deadlines, including the Nov. 26 sentencing date, to consider the effect of his election as president.

Potential Trump education secretary calls for DOE to be ‘shut down’: ‘Put parents back in the driver’s seat’

By Taylor Penley  | Fox News Moms for Liberty co-founder Tiffany Justice has been frequently floated as a potential pick for President-elect Donald Trump's education secretary, but the same agency she could lead is also one she says should be abolished. "Parents are the number one driver of student success. Parents were put in the back seat when it came to their kids' education. We need to put them in the driver's seat, and I know that President Trump believes that, too," Justice said Monday on "Fox & Friends First." "Ultimately, I believe the Department of Education should be shut down. Since it was created, we have only seen plummeting achievement scores, teachers unions having more influence on our kids' education and more global interference in our kids' education. It...

Trump plans to shift school funding control to local communities, has yet to pick DOE secretary

By Jamie Joseph  | Fox News President-Elect Donald Trump has proposed a dramatic shakeup in American education: "disbanding" or drastically reducing the power of the Department of Education (DOE), a move that would shift control and funding of public schools back to local communities. While Trump's specific plan and choice of secretary have yet to be announced, Neal McCluskey, the director for educational freedom at libertarian think tank Cato Institute, said there's a high likelihood Trump's agenda of shuttering the DOE could be carried out through "block granting." "Block granting is a little easier for people to understand, because it takes money and it doesn't just suddenly go away from states and districts, it keeps it," McCluskey told Fox News Digital in an in...
