You mean the White House is preparing an executive order for protests so they can still gitmo faster?
Give the power back to the states but create a credentialing system to weed out 'unpatriotic' teachers. Shall that be left to the states too?
This is a good choice as they just sit around and do nothing all day anyway considering who got elected.
This is one people should seriously protest to fucking stop. Education is the one thing that levels the playing field for people across different socioeconomic backgrounds. Get on the phone to your representatives, this is the main one they were working towards and wanted to distract from!

So how is Betsy DeVos gonna siphon money for public schools to provide schools?
I had no idea the ~~DOE~~ federal Education Department was that recently created. Having grown up in a deep red state I feel like a veil was suddenly lifted from me, and now I can see how even more fucked up my older relatives’ education must have been compared to mine (already pretty fucked up!).
