Another area O'Leary underscored is the concept of school choice. Maria Bartiromo noted that a significant goal of the proposed education reforms is to dismantle the federal education department and return authority to the states. O'Leary passionately agreed with this vision, insisting that it could foster a more meritocratic educational system where rewards are given thoughtfully—especially to those educators who excel.
In this broader context, the discussion about education reform became intertwined with the ongoing discourse about governance and the importance of strong leadership. O'Leary’s assertions advocate for a shift away from a one-size-fits-all approach to education, promoting adaptability and localized decision-making as keys to progress.
