President-elect Donald Trump’s transition team announces the choice of Common Core and charter school  supporter Betsy DeVos as U.S. Secretary of Education.

Anti-Common Core grassroots groups of parents and teachers urged Trump to abandon DeVos as his choice, citing her support for the education reform policies of pro-Common Core Jeb Bush and her influence through the Great Lakes Education Project (GLEP) in favor of Common Core.

“So what? Trump changed from pro-choice to pro-life. Nobody can change their mind on anything?”

You, my friend, are the one with no integrity it seems.

We won and you still want to fight and divide.

Because it's "probably", not "definitely".

There's no denying she was involved in "Education Reform" with the author of common core, ¡Yeb! (link to her bio on Excelined)

It bears watching.

DeVos is a pro-Islam turkey.

This had better not be true.

“If Bannon can’t stop his own web site from bashing Trump, how is Trump going to stop the MSM from doing it?”

Puleeze. The MSM is going to trash Trump no matter what he does or says. Doesn’t matter who he picks for his cabinet. When they are down to 5 viewers in prime time they will continue bashing him till the plug is pulled.

Reminds me of the primaries...again.

Anybody associated on a board with such luminaries as ¡Yeb!, Eric Cantor, Condi Rice, (Hillary-supporting) William Oberdorf, (former Universion president) Cesar Conde, and so on, needs to be watched very carefully.

Well, best of anything and everything to you, friend.

We are moving forward with President Trump and his admin, Republican Legislative Branch and with new Constitutional Justices.

I hope you don’t stew in your juices, brother.

God bless!
