Like I’ve always said fuck Betsy Devos
And this surprises anyone? Obstruction by the Trump Administration?
Profits before people!
DeVos is a consensus, all-American idiot, BUT, she’s an inspiration to school children everywhere...see, kids, if you have $200 million dollars, you too can run a federal department...into the friggin ground!
Of course they are. This Dept like others is now destroying what it was supposed to help.
And standing in the way is exactly what Devos intends to continue doing.
SOUNDS LIKE DEMOCRATS GETTING THE WAY AGAIN
Oh I bet. Selling promises to kids just to follow the rules and still not find gainful employment. Damn student debt 3 times higher than our income.
