**Podcast Episode: The Secretary of Education Podcast - March 2026**

Join host Mortimer in an insightful episode of *The Secretary of Education Podcast,* where we delve into the latest news about U.S Secretary of Education Linda McMahon. Appointed by President Donald Trump in March 2025, McMahon—formerly the CEO of World Wrestling Entertainment—has taken bold steps in reshaping the U.S. education landscape.

Explore the controversial "History Rocks Trail to Independence" tour, intended to enhance history and civics instruction but met with resistance due to concerns over partisanship. Learn about McMahon's ambitious policies to refocus education priorities and reduce federal oversight, including her push for school choice and plans to potentially dismantle the Department of Education.

This episode highlights the polarized educational landscape, contrasting McMahon’s tenure with that of her predecessor, Miguel Cardona, who focused on diversity and federal support under President Biden. Amid significant criticism, particularly regarding cuts to the Department's Office for Civil Rights, the episode provides a comprehensive exploration of the evolving education policies under McMahon's leadership.
