PSA:

I’m so sorry to our younger millennial followers, but if Democrats don't unite in fierce opposition to this uncaring, incompetent, anti-public school billionaire, you guys could be well and truly fucked…..

CALL YOUR SENATORS AND SPREAD THE WORD!!!

Reminder that this woman’s foundation advocates for the return of child labor because “practical education and social skills while learning the value of a dollar”.

She’s incredibly stupid and incompetent like Trumpy McFuckface, but she’ll bleed schools dry and send the kids back into the coal mines

Could it get any worse

I was watching some of this earlier and the woman shouldn’t be in charge of a recycling drive on her block, much less the nation’s schools

"Nothing in life is truly free" -Billionaire heiress Betsy Devos, explaining to Bernie Sanders why your kids won't get free college tuition

Convicted election fraudster and public education opponent Betsy Devos made her billions through hard work – really, you can’t overstate the effort required to emerge from the loins of someone who married a rich guy, nor the work of later marrying someone else who emerged from the loins someone who married a rich guy.

She’s calls herself “the biggest contributor of soft money to the Republican National Committee” and explains that the $200M her family gave to the GOP was given because they “expect a return on our investment…a conservative governing philosophy consisting of limited government and respect for traditional American virtues.” She’s in line to be Trump’s education secretary, a position she says she earned not through cash donations, but through her decades of work to dismantle public schools and give parents the power to divert tax dollars to evangelical Christian schools.

At her confirmation hearing yesterday, Bernie Sanders asked her what she thought of his campaign pledge to make public colleges tuition free. Devos told him that it wouldn’t work because “nothing in life is truly free.”

Devos’s husband – the real money in the family, a billionaire inheritor to her millionaire inheritance – got his money from his father, who founded a Ponzi scheme called Amway.
