YouTube Description
as posted by the channelSupport our work
President-elect Trump has announced his nomination of billionaire Linda McMahon to head the Department of Education, which Trump has pledged to shut down. McMahon is the former CEO of World Wrestling Entertainment and also headed the Small Business Administration during Trump's first term. "President-elect Trump has a habit of choosing people who have either a desire to destroy the department or who have no experience. She falls into the latter category: She does not have any experience in education," says education historian Diane Ravitch, who served as assistant secretary of education under President George H.W. Bush.
