So you can do it without getting rid of the DOE. You can keep the parts that work and you get rid of the parts that don't. And these are political judgments. The president can do a lot of it on his own. If he can't, then he turns to his party. and says, this is what I want.

I don't think they're going to get rid of the entire agency. But again, you don't have to to make the kinds of changes that are being discussed.

Yeah. But this has existed for a long time. And we have a culture of accommodation, not of excellence. One of the reasons you guys have been able to distinguish yourselves is that Pat is so results focused and oriented. You do not have that in our culture in a lot of places, specifically within our systems. You don't have it. You don't have it in our government.

You don't have it in our education system.

Look, I mean, I don't think these are new arguments. The question gets into, well, how do you change it? And the biggest thing in politics that people don't want to touch, you will not hear, whether it's Trump, I don't care who the politician is, no one's going to say, You know, Pat, your kids aren't doing well. You're not getting it done as a parent. How much phone time you letting them have?

How much do you make your kid read every night? Well, I got to work. I got to do this. No, I understand. But, you know, it's on you. Your kid is a reflection of your efforts. You're not going to hear anybody say that. You're not going to hear anybody say that. Why? Because you're not voting for me now. So our politics is about giving somebody an excuse for their own behavior.

And, you know, oh, we don't we spend too much money if we spent less and we did it differently or the states had more control. If you don't raise your kids right, it doesn't matter what school they're going to. I've had my kid, my oldest kid went to what some think anecdotally, to your point, is the best high school in the country. OK, Trinity in New York City, private school.

I'm telling you, as somebody who watched her go through that school from K to 12, okay, she's only going to do as well as we make her do. She was blessed with a good brain. What she's going to make of it is about what her mother insisted on every freaking night and in the fights that we had over this stupid thing. And the best thing a school has ever done for me?

Was what my public school in Sag Harbor did of Long Island of making you not allowed to have this phone in school. My kid has changed academically because the environment has changed. She doesn't have to compete with her friends about this distraction machine. And that is something that a school can do. But otherwise, it's on parents. You know, we're trying to absent them from this.

It's not fair. We are on the same page on the responsibility where it's at. I mean, look at your kids. Look how you are with them. What do you think? It's just genetics that they're doing what they're doing at this young age? You're making it happen for them.
