It’s telling that even when Trump had full control of the legislative and executive branches, he could only get DeVos confirmed by an unprecedented tiebreaking vote by his vice president. That’s because...

That's because Harry Reid killed the filibuster for cabinet nominees only a couple of years ago, so a 50-50 tie needing a Vice President to break was not really possible, since the filibuster ensured a controversial nominee needed 60 or 67 votes in support.

You'd think these "educators" would know that.

“DeVos’ confirmation battle has a major silver lining: The public in public education has never been more visible or more vocal, and it is not going back in the shadows...."

They are a menace. The AFT, PBA and FOP as well as AFSCME are unions which are a conspiracy against the public interest. Government employees should NOT be allowed to unionize. The Government should be a right to work employer.
