There goes public education. I know it’s been purposefully eroded for a long time, but this nutter is going to burn its corpse. Hope everyone likes extremist religious indoctrination and the end of American science.

Aaand DeVos is confirmed.

They’re all using each other, but let’s not pretend there’s some kind of game plan beyond gaslighting the American people, sucking the master’s dick and covering their own asses. I think it’s a mistake to treat these venal pricks like they’re playing chess as opposed to making it up as they go along; there’s no…

You can’t even really call it a press conference because he came in, chastised the press, lied 4 times, and stormed off like a goddamned fool. If they think they’re going to keep saying up is down just to show they can, they’re going to be in…

Walked the walk, wrote the book, dragged us mere mortals along. I feel embarrassed as a feminist that she has to fight some of this horseshit all over again.

She’s kinda clueless.
