The Trump administration plans to transfer several core Education Department responsibilities, including its civil rights and special education programs, to other federal agencies as part of its efforts to dismantle the department.

Of the people, by the people, for the people--or not

You'd think they know how to spell it since Trump suffers from it
The folks who want to abolish the Department of Education paid for a giant billboard and misspelled the word “dementia.” Enjoy your weekend, everyone. pic.twitter.com/wRKliVffFF

Building Back Better
Biden's Education Department just wiped out $1.74 billion of student debt for 22,000 borrowers through a major overhaul of a loan-forgiveness program. https://t.co/K8sZvtjwPN

Little piggies, part the second

| Nothing more need be said |
For the past year, Education Secretary Betsy DeVos has been trying to rewrite an Obama era rule known as the Borrower Defense to Repayment, which basically helps students who were cheated out of money by for-profit colleges, so as to give for-profit colleges who grifted people out of thousands of dollars the fruits of their cheating.
Isn't this akin to convicting a bank robber, and then saying, "What the hell, here's the money you stole--enjoy!"
Nothing quite like the rich helping the rich to get even richer--and what an embarrassment Betsy DeVos is to everything that decent people consider proper.
Fuck Donald Trump,

A bad moon on the rise

| Row, row, row your boat... |
Last week Secretary of Education Betsy Devos had her 163 foot yacht (one of nine boats she and her husband own) unmoored in Ohio, causing the boat to float aimlessly for a short period and sustain a few scratches.
My guess is that considering the disaster that is the republican tax cut for the rich, and the growing chasm in America between rich and poor, it's only a matter of time before untying some billionaire's boat and casting it adrift as a means of protest is going to seem decidedly quaint.
Fuck Donald Trump,
emaycee
