My friend and I did that a few times until her mother caught us.

So DeVos says educators are "smart people who can figure things out.” But if they figure out that opening schools amounts to reckless homicide, then DeVos will try to strip them of funding.
It would be a crime if a mob stormed DeVos’s compound and dragged her out of her and her right-wing nut job husband out of their mansion and tarred and feathered and drove them through the streets. It would be wrong and a sin. But I would have a hard time feeling bad about it. She is a powerful and wicked person.
I think if you go down the list for frontotemporal dementia, PSP variant, he’s a pretty good fit to this layman’s eye. The problem with Trump is he clearly had underlying issues all his life—severely dyslexic, according to Tony Schwartz, with maybe other learning disabilities thrown in. He knows next to nothing. He was reasonably articulate decades ago, even five years ago, compared to now. So it’s a mix and only the best doctors would be able to sort it all out for you after his sitting for the tests his niece points out he won’t sit for. I wouldn’t let him watch my cat.

Hi! To find out what I can do, say @discobot display help.
The more Dana Bash kept asking the same question, the tighter the smile from Bets. Thought her jaw was going to shatter.

The article doesn’t say if she was a union member or not. Maybe they should start including that detail
[/quote] Arizona teachers have an association, not a union- it’s a right to work state. If you follow up on the story, three teachers were teaching summer school remotely from a single room, socially distanced and masked. One of them worked at the local general store as a second job- so possibly came in contact with a Covid positive person there. It’s a rural area about 75 miles from Tucson and 125 miles from Phoenix. It’s a very sad story and a warning that we really don’t know how we’ll be able to return to normal gatherings in schools, workplaces and so on.

This woman reminds me of nothing so much as a fucking ghoul. A mindless, soulless empty ghoul. Her willingness, make that eagerness, to sacrifice the nation’s public school children is on par with Nazism. There are a few other things that I’m thinking about her as well, but they are less complementary, so I will just keep them to myself.

We aren’t going to be able to reopen schools unless we get general control of the virus. That isn’t going to happen unless we close down hard and stay closed down until the virus is declining and stays declining for at least two weeks. I think that is the CDC guideline the Republicans don’t want us to reach. They want us to reopen in the middle of the pandemic because they think that will save the economy. It won’t but their insistence will destroy any chance of reopening schools and heading off a major disaster for the American economy starting in Arizona, Florida and Texas with Georgia right behind.
Her brother is Eric Prince of Blackwater/Iran Contra fame. He’s currently said to be offering lethal services to Russia’s mercenary firm Wagner. (I wonder if they have bounties on American heads?). Quite the family; making America (or is it Putie-Pute?) great. Well, perhaps she can mandate that all the private schools teach Russian as a second language. It will make things so much easier when they go to change their family fortune’s dollars to rubles.

Perhaps she can have the government hire one of her brother, Eric Prince’s mercenary firms like Blackwater to keep order and discipline in the public schools.

Bingo.
Both ways! And snow!
Someone needs to punch her fucking lights out.
Well, I know for a fact that there are many schools that have been working hard to put together their plans for moving ahead,” DeVos said. We want to see every school district, every state doing the same thing to say not what we can’t do, but what we’re going to do and what we can do. We’re a country of action, we’re a country of doers.”
What you are " doing" is paving the way for districts that are unprepared to deal with this crisis to jeopardize teachers,students and their parents in a random free for all that portends disaster.The implications for our precious economy can’t be overstated…the irony is that the deaths will be an afterthought and the fate of the GDP will be front and center.
Perhaps, in the vernacular of the present administration, they would prefer to say that Putin’ Blackwater mercenaries in the schools is “controlling the battlespace.” If that isn’t enough, knowing DeVos and A G Billy Barr, they may consider bringing in unidentified Bureau of Prison stormtroopers. It would be a little something to inform students of "the real world " if Trump is reelected.
