Have the public schools in Michigan gotten better?” Stahl followed up.

DeVos couldn’t say.

“I don’t know. Overall, I, I can’t say overall that they have all gotten better,” she said.

These people want tax payer money to go for parochial instruction and just say that it’s only for the secular portion, as if the two could ever be separated.

DeVos’s goal was never to improve all schools. It was to find a new way of allowing school segregation. So of course she doesn’t know - or care - whether all schools in Michigan have gotten better.

Of course she struggled to answer questions because:

  1. She’s not used to being asked questions. She’s a pampered little brat used to getting her way and cannot comprehend why anyone would dare question her.

  2. She’s a complete moron. Seriously, next to Gingrich’s wife, her default look is that of vacancy. She does not have a single thought in that head except what her family tells her to do.

Agree 100%. Her apparent disinterest with anything beyond the machinations of “school choice” makes it seem like her only interest in public education is the public money to siphon from it.

This is Exhibit A for why voting is important. We have an unqualified, unprepared and uninterested POTUS who hired a bunch of unqualified, unprepared and misinformed ideologues. DeVos is the fkn Secretary of Education and hasn’t bothered to use her departments resources to see how her own state’s education system is performing. She is so entrenched in the ideas of school choice that she won’t even look at nationwide data. Whether that is out of arrogance, fear or stupidity, it is hurting our nation’s future.

I guess since these folks didn’t prepare for their Senate hearings, they feel like they don’t have to prepare for ANY interviews. If they don’t go well, they cry fake news, or ambush and move on.

Next up. Scott Pruitt defending polluting our atmosphere with toxic gases. Mnuchin defending the eating of the poor. William Ross defending money laundering. Ben Carson defending discrimination in housing. Pence defending extramarital sex with a porn star. Trump defending the grabbing of the genitalia of the females who he finds attractive - perhaps anyone other than Melania.

I must have left out some other ideas that this bunch is committed to defending.

Charter schools are going to resemble Branch Davidian compounds before this is over, with teachers bringing their guns to Bible study. Turn the other cheek, focus on the front sight, exhale slowly and gently press the trigger.
