‘Blatant nationalist indoctrination’: Donald Trump signs Executive Order to control what schools teach nationwide
Donald Trump has signed a comprehensive executive order that gives him control of the curricula and forcing teachers to comply with funding threats.
During his presidential campaign, Trump expressed his interest in controlling America’s education. Like the 2025 project, He has been reluctant to dismantle the Ministry of Education To erase government oversight and give states more power to form general education. At the same time, he also expressed interest in maintaining federal funds for schools in order to use it as a financial lever to force all schools to pay the oath. Trump once stated that he would not send money to schools that teach actual American history, Including the history of slavery. Now, this promise behaves with an executive order calling all schools to teach “national history” or lose funding.
Donald Trump is seeking to control education
On January 29, Trump signed the executive order “Ending the radical indoctrination in education K-12.” As one may expect, through “radical indoctrination”, refers to schools that have learned history, dealing with topics such as racism, or the treatment of LGBTQ students with respect. It may claim to “end” the indoctrination, but it is quite clear that its real goal is right to indoctrinate.
The executive will eliminate what it defines as “the ideology of discriminatory stocks.” It defines the ideology of discriminatory stocks as anything that “treats individuals as members of preferred or unprecedented groups.” This includes the idea that some individuals are “distinguished, persecuted, or persecuted” others in the past. The language mainly means that topics such as racism, white excellence, sexual discrimination and discrimination will not be allowed in the curricula, as well as the historical events that highlight these things.
It also seeks to eliminate the ideology of the sexes and distinguished teachers from facilitating the “social transition” of the student. Basically, it means that schools will not be permitted to recognize sexual identity in any way, including respect for the child’s favorite conscience. To force teachers to comply, the prosecutor’s ability to work with the state lawyer is threatening to “provide appropriate measures” against teachers who violate the matter. Therefore, the teacher can face legal procedures well to respect their students’ consciences. Meanwhile, schools that are studying “discriminatory stock ideology” will risk losing financing. Moreover, Tiktok Effect @MS.FRAZLED referred to the “National History” section, warning that “a blatant national indoctrination”.
It is a matter of strengthening “national education”, which means that American history must be taught in an “inspiring” way that you know that all the aspirations of America were “useful and justified”. It also states that all the history and greatness of America must be celebrated. The language of nationalism that enhances it to teach children is that everything their country does “has something to justify”, even if it is at the expense of others.
Trump’s CEO raises questions about how to apply this at the country level. It seems that the federal government is preparing to start monitoring schools to ensure that they are only studying and say what Trump wants, and reach a level of intervention in education and curricula that were not supposed to enjoy.
