The Trump administration is quietly moving to carve up the U.S. Education Department, shifting key responsibilities to agencies like Labor and State in a renewed push toward its long-standing goal of dismantling the department altogether. It’s a striki ng look at how far the administration is willing to go to bypass Congress to make it happen. Host Yasmin Vossoughian is joined by Erica Meltzer, national editor at Chalkbeat, to unpack what this maneuver means for students, schools and federal oversight. Meanwhile, Iran is staring down its worst water crisis in decades, and the warning signs are plastered across Tehran. New government posters read: “There is a water shortage! It’s fall and there is still no rain.” With reservoirs drying up and no relief in the forecast, officials are raising the unthinkable possibility of evacuating the capital city of 10 million people. NBC News producer Amin Khodadadi joins us from Tehran to break down how the crisis got this bad and what happens next. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
