9:09Now PlayingBetsy DeVos has again demonstrated that she is a puppet for the billionaires. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian, hosts of The Young Turks, break it down.

"Eunice Kennedy Shriver has been gone for nearly 10 years, but this week, in the face of an appalling lack of understanding from the Trump White House about the national value of inspiration and courage, she just might be more powerful than she has ever been.
The Trump administration has made a mistake for the ages by completely eliminating funding for Special Olympics, $18 million in all – about the cost of five of President Donald Trump’s golf trips to Mar-a-Lago. It has defunded the most visible and recognizable symbol of inclusion for those with intellectual disabilities not just in this country, but around the world.
Undaunted amid the furor over her decision, U.S. Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos doubled down Wednesday. “The Special Olympics is not a federal program,” she said in a statement. “It’s a private organization. I love its work, and I have personally supported its mission. Because of its important work, it is able to raise more than $100 million every year. There are dozens of worthy nonprofits that support students and adults with disabilities that don’t get a dime of federal grant money. But given our current budget realities, the federal government cannot fund every worthy program, particularly ones that enjoy robust support from private donations.”
