Choosing her is quite telling of how Republicans value education.

(hint: they don't unless it is their own children)

Warren was not only rude with her approach and questions to Ms. DeVos, she refused to shake Betsy's hand after the hearing. Par for course for this shrill, antagonistic Senator. I watched the clip for both exchanges. Devos will shake up education in this country and we need that desperately.

You can't watch that questioning and not cringe.

Trump would have a difficult time finding someone less qualified.

Oh, and "drain the swamp"? She's the daughter of a billionaire , and married to a billionaire who inherited all his money. And the sister of Erik Prince, Blackwater USA nutjob.

She says they've given $200 million to the GOP. You know, just regular public servants, the sort of person youd want running a federal department.

Asking Mike Pompeo, nominee for CIA Director, about climate change is an appropriate line of questioning? Is asking Dr. Ben Carson, HUD nominee, for his views on gay rights an appropriate line of questioning?
