Trump's Ed. Pick with No Teaching or Admistrative Experience

fair enough. so youre ok with a state like california teaching evolution as fact? what if they began incorrectly teaching in history courses that all southern whites were slave owners?
Yes, I think local communities should decide what should be taught to their students.
 
It's amazing that anyone would stick up for her. This goes beyond party lines. She's genuinely NOT qualified and her hearing couldn't have gone much worse.
this is whats most shocking to me. In no way should this be a partisan issue. Charter schools in general aren't a partisan issue and has crossover to both sides of the aisle. But to disregard standards for them? Are you kidding me? The lack of the regulation around charter schools is literally the problem with them. Even pro charter people admit to that.

"In previous administrations, presidents have always had a close confidant in foreign affairs. Almost always, it was someone who had extensive experience in the international arena. President Obama chose to use someone without experience and who had, ironically, received his master’s degree in creative writing."
Wow, took 17 posts this thread for the but what about the other team instead of addressing the problem.
We should change the title of this section, instead of War Room, to "But what about the time the other team did it and Hitler was an alright dude"
This lady is woefully under qualified and wants to privatize education, due to private schools funnels money to her interests. Florida has private charter schools and it has been a problem.
The only qualification she has is her family has donated over 200 FUCKING MILLION to the GOP(Her family is the GOP's, Soros). That is insane, but instead of addressing that, the rubes want to play the left vs right bullshit.
That is the brilliance of the two party system, both sides are to busy pointing fingers and missing both sides taking turns fucking them in the ass.
 
Honestly, that would probably be better than Devos' plans. But you need a Dept. of Education to handle federal funding.

Right now, education is mostly funded at state and local levels, but the federal government helps states fund districts with high needs and little ability to pay, so that those districts don't fall wholly on the states, which would wreck a lot of state budgets.
All that tax money that goes to the dept of education should go directly to the local or state govt to run schools. The federal govt has wasted so much. Locals can run schools better than the wasteful federal govt.
 
I dont care that she's a billionaire. I don't care that shes wholly unqualified. I don't care that she is a big proponent of charter schools and thinks public schools are failures. i absolutely care that she thinks that charter schools shouldn't be held to the same standards of those "failing" public schools, and everyone should as well.
 
Trump's ultimate gas lighting: find the dumbest woman possible and make her Secretary of Education.

Really, though, a previous poster might have a point that Trump delegated the cabinet selections to a GOP team. Trump often bucks the party line but his "choices" read like the GOP'd deluded wet dream.

YET AGAIN, localities DO run public schools, and they're largely shitty at it.

Stop spreading falsehoods.

What're you talkin about? I'm pretty sure my district school board was chosen by the federal government.

If the federal govt is totally out of the local schools, then the dept of education needs to be gotten rid of immediately.

What does a speech writer building a relationship with the pres have to do with this? lol. Stop trying to play politics.
 
Erik Prince is this woman's brother, for those that don't know.
They've got a racket figured out; different business, same model. That model is to legitimize a questionable service, oppose any oversight, donate large sums to crony politicians (Generally GOPers who believe any privatization is good) and funnel as much taxpayer cash to that service before public light is shone on your illicit dealings.

The corn nugget on top of the crap sundae is that her husband is President of Amway, the closest thing to a literal snake oil salesman a human could be.

Hopefully some honest Republicans cross party lines and cast this trash out, but I won't hold my breath.
 
If she gets confirmed people are going to know how much it costs to buy a cabinet seat.

$9.5-10M
