"Grant money designed to pay for things like art, music, technology, and mental health programs in the country's poorest schools could eventually be used to help schools buy guns, under a plan being considered by Betsy DeVos' education department."

Gee, I can't fathom why other nations rank higher in education than the US.

Teachers buy rassum frassum pencils with their own money because school districts have no funds, but this we have funds for?

The woman is a nutcase.

Jesus Christ (no pun intended) many times these days it feels like the Duck Dynasty cast has taken over this country from top to bottom. They don't care about education because of course the End Times are coming and religion is more important. And things like the arts, music, tech, and especially mental health are pathways to Satan.

How much longer will the 60% of Americans who are not part of this cult put up with this?

Example #562863665655 of why so-called “conservatives” are spineless, gutless cowards.

Not one mention of abolishing ALL federal funding for government schools; just more talk of using stolen income, just in different ways.

Maybe she can get her brother, Eric Prince, a government contract to train teachers to be commandos. She'd like nothing better than seeing teachers with a Bible in one hand and a gun in the others hand.

Oh, forget schools supplies. We were going to COSTCO buying toilet paper and tissues for the Pre-K kids. "Sorry no more money in the budget for this".

Maybe these little kids can wipe their behinds and noses with teacher's gun.

Exactly. Considering who her brother is, this is completely unsurprising.
