DeVos foes now claiming her policies could 'kill children,' ruin public schools
?If her critics are to be believed, Education Secretary nominee Betsy DeVos is a danger to special education, could end public schooling and has plans that “will kill children.”
Think that’s hyperbole?
“That is not an exaggeration in any sense,” tweeted Vanity Fair film critic Richard Lawson, who fired off a series of tweets early Tuesday arguing that DeVos’ confirmation would be deadly for “queer and other at-risk kids” – because of DeVos’ support for voucher programs.
Meaning voucher programs will lead to more suicides. Betsy DeVos's policies will kill children. That is not an exaggeration in any sense.

One of the reasons I was ok with her being approved. The meltdown is awesome.

Well I've been critical of her nomination, but this is just ridiculous.
These people drown out legitimate criticisms.

My 17 year old daughter told me yesterday that one of her teachers told her class that Devos is a bad choice because she is advocating "ending" public schools. She was echoing his argument. I took it as a teaching moment and asked what she knew about Devos. She knew nothing. I then spent about an hour with her researching her ideas and positions. She realized that her teacher was full of shite and I asked her what she thought would motivate her teacher to embellish the facts. She then learned about teachers unions and the fear they have of school choice.
It was really a good exercise for her to learn not to simply echo things she hears without doing some research on the facts.

The Department of Education was created by Jimmy Carter in 1979 as a payback to the teachers unions.
Our education standards and results have went down ever since.
Why do we need the DoE?

Dems scared she's going to enact what they should have done decades ago.
Open the schools up to choice, end the brainwash factories, prepare students for success.
This is going to be huge for inner cities.

Good.
I want kids either dead or uneducated.
Burn this motherfricker down.

The Sec of Ed has little authority to do anything and the Dept of Ed is basically a toothless organization. I don't understand the hyperbole from opponents.

Code for "she may provide school choice and ruin public school for our unions".

Lets talk about how the transgender and queer approbation insanity is killing people by encouraging them to adopt unhealthy lifestyles.

Does anybody else see the hypocrisy from the left???
They want the choice to kill unborn babies, but if the child is born they don't want the parent to have a choice of school to educate it
Same argument applies for healthcare

The teacher's union, as an entity, has a financial interest in grooming future democrat voters. As the Podesta emails have show, they want an electorate of ill informed drones, as the useful idiots seen in the Berkeley protest
Giving vouchers allows parents that would not have been able to send their kids to private schools the opportunity to. Many of these schools will be Christian schools.
And if there is one thing a true believer Marxist social democrat progressive teacher absolutely hates, it's a Christian.
They have worked tirelessly to keep minorities voting democrat and they have corrupted the information taught with anti american and anti capitalist Marist propaganda.
They fear vouchers will threaten their vote mill that they have worked 30 years to build. Frick the kids, social democrat future voting blocks are at risk, and to an " ends justify the means" progressive , that is all that matters.
Power
Control
Mind manipulation
Building anti capitalist democrat voters
That's why the don't want vouchers. Don't let the frocking progressive posters lie to you about it.
