Devos is a giant coldhearted bitch and I hope somehow they find her ass has done something illegal. If not, I hope some hits her with an egg or dumps water on her or whatever.
Her current proposal cuts funding from public schools in favor of her charters. But today the problem is the $17 million she wants to cut from special olympics because that money should come from philanthropy.
Wtf you self-centered asshole? How about your for profit charters get their money from philanthropy
How does she sleep at night?

and she wants to cut money that helps kids who are falling behind, that provides teachers with more training and other total asshole moves. apparently Barbara Lee got on her case.

Special Olympics is the highlight of some of these student’s lives, and gives them the biggest sense of pride and self achievement. It teaches them more about existing in the world than some of the regular curriculum does. Teamwork. Dedication. Pride. Dealing with disappointment. Thinking of others. Heck, even taking turns. She can rot.

America - where we've got 2 FUCKING TRILLION for a billionaire tax cut,
but can't spend $18 million (Devos' equivalent of pocket change - let's faces it, this bi#$(* could just cut a f#($*ing check herself) on Special Olympics.

She’s TOTALLY defunding Special Olympics.
And cutting BILLIONS from public schools.
Giving $60 million to charter schools (no coincidence—her family OWNS charter schools).
This entire administration is so fucking horrid and fucked up.
Self serving, fucking bastards.

This is disgusting: The secretary's budget requests new funds for K-12 school choice tax credits, called Education Freedom Scholarships. They could be used for both private and public schools. The agency is asking the Treasury Department for $5 billion a year for the new program. linkAdding $5 billion for her pet project and cutting crucial funding? (I admit I am biased as I have a son with autism). I hate her too.

It makes me sick. She’s a symbol of everything wrong with this administration, and she’s not even a crook (that I know of).
But taking money away from public schools and special needs to fund charter schools ... it’s just unforgivable.

Still waiting for any remote sign that she has any concern about this country's children.

But today (yesterday) saying I hate her is the nicest thing I can say about her. Her budget is BULLSHIT. I am so angry and heartbroken over these cuts that I cannot even formulate the words to express myself.

Yes, she is terrible. No argument.
BUT her proposed budget is unlikely to pass Congress, just like the last time she tried to slash education funding in favor of "school choice" programs. I begin to think her outrages are well-timed to deflect from Trump's latest scandal - in this case, to get people to stop talking about the Mueller report.

Trump officials are like movie villains from the Muppets - so ridiculously, stereotypically evil and awful that it's hard to believe they are real. Instead of "Here's Chris Cooper starring as Tex Richman!" it's "Here' Betsy DeVos starring as MeMe Bigger Yacht Blackheart!"

I picture her someday wearing a coat made out of 101 children as she holds her skinny cigarette on one of those old-timey cigarette holders.

She couldn’t even fucking answer a congressman who asked her if she knew the number of kids that her cuts to the SO would affect and she answered “no she did not”!!!! How fucking arrogant can she be before a hearing and not have that basic info??? Well the congressman knew and his response was excellent!

Motherfuckers.

Adding $5 billion for her pet project and cutting crucial funding? (I admit I am biased as I have a son with autism). I hate her too. You are NOT bias in this case for sure!! Special Olympics are so SPECIAL for all of us, those who participate as athletes, volunteers and those who watch, as well as for the families too! BUT her proposed budget is unlikely to pass Congress, just like the last time she tried to slash education funding in favor of "school choice" programs. I begin to think her outrages are well-timed to deflect from Trump's latest scandal - in this case, to get people to stop talking about the Mueller report. Whether her suggested budget is approved or not, it just shows what she thinks about kids/young adults! Unless they, the kids, pay, they have no value to her or the administration! She has sold her soul to the devil.

She has sold her soul to the devil. That’s exactly why I am so fucking mad about this. She is cutting necessary services for children with disabilities (and eliminating special Olympics) because to her these CHILDREN have no value. To defund the services they need to succeed in the school system clearly sends the message that they are not worthy of educating. That they cannot contribute to society, so why should we pay to educate them? AND ITS BULLSHIT! Families, teachers, service providers, and individuals with disabilities have fought for so long and so hard to get inclusion and the right to education. We are finally starting to see progress, and here comes this bitch who wants to rip all of it away! Fuck her and her fucking policy!

I sincerely hope you are right in thinking this budget won’t pass and none of the cuts will happen. Because if it does, there will not be any coming back from it. The effects will be detrimental to generations of children and adults with disabilities of all types. For me, what she is trying to do is far worse than whatever is in that Mueller report.
