    WASHINGTON — Facing a fierce backlash after she called historically black colleges and universities “real pioneers” of school choice, Betsy DeVos, the education secretary, spent Tuesday afternoon backtracking on the controversial statement and highlighting the ins utions’ roots in racism and segregation.

    Ms. DeVos, in a series of Twitter posts on Tuesday and in remarks at a luncheon with presidents from some of the schools, repeatedly acknowledged that the schools were not created simply to give African-American students more choices but because black students across the country were not allowed into segregated white schools. The controversy is the latest gaffe for Ms. DeVos, who has had a rough start........

    Background: VRWC/Repugs see govt as THEIR PROBLEM, so their solution is to it up.

    EG: every single asshole the Repugs put in Trash's cabinet and into every agency.

    Bannon said point blank at CPAC that the goal is destruction of govt.

    DeVos is part of the strategy. destroy public schools, move taxpayers $Ts to for-profit houses, and Christian madrasas.

    That's the kind of remark Dems used to make when Hussein was President. Something COMPLETELY against the grain. Used to drive me bat crazy.

    Now? It's like shaved pussy.

    "Have you seen the really bad schools? Maybe try to figure out what they’re doing?” Stahl asked.*

    “I have not,” DeVos confessed. “I have not. I have not intentionally visited schools that are underperforming.”

    “Maybe you should,” Stahl suggested.
