Trump administration tries to kill Special Olympics funding

AKA, being held accountable for decisions she is making on behalf of American people

While diverting one billion dollars to vouchers for PRIVATE SCHOOLS, an industry from which Betsy DeVoss directly profits. Just more heartless Republican corruption.

BetsyDeVosED wow Stump on the poor and defenseless. GOP so much God loving people!! So Hypocrite.

Oh the poor handicapped children this coming from the left-wing media that attacked Sarah Palin's little kid with Down syndrome try again I'm sure there something else you attack them for

Cut her salary, there's a start!

When will people learn that rich people don't care about poor people.

Are you shocked?..thats what facists do..they put immigrants in cages and they see disabled people as not 'worth' to help.

They enjoy taking services from the people and giving themselves the money they save.

Look at the big picture, people. Mulvaney is setting Trumps policy because we know Trump is too small minded to care about government matters...Mulvaney always has been and always will be a tool of the KOCH BROTHERS and will push their agenda...

Wait .... We use billions in tax money funding the special Olympics... It is not even televised lmao... What are we doing?

Well, we all know as to how the fat, ugly & orange CRIMINAL SCUM BAG, Trump, feels about disabled people--when, in 2016, he viciously mocked a disabled NYT reporter at a campaign stop--yet, I hope that there will be congressional resistance to that improper move...

She’s a monster

One side is angry about coercive taxation the other does not see it as even remotely unreasonable to show up to a harbor someplace tow a yacht to a barn and sell it to fund food and medicine for the poor. Neither side believes in bipartisanship

I don't trust anything coming out of MSNBC.

WITCH.

Politicians in a never ending war, unable to move America forward.

If I had to guess, BetsyDeVosED heard rumors about special buses for school children with disabilities and decided to punish people with disabilities. Why should only people with disabilities get a bus in some districts? Cause they have disabilities you colossal asswipe!

One shouldn’t smile, like Devois, when taking funds from Special Education Programs and the Special Olympics. Has this woman no shame or is it her Schadenfreue.

How low can the Secretary of Education go? There are over 200K children of the Special Olympics. I think the Secretary fell off her broom one time too many, OR is suffering from PTSD after digging her way from under the house in the Wizard of Oz!

Weird goal to have.

What does Special Olympics have to do with education?

She is one very sick woman, also you got to wonder if she understands any English, it look like she didn’t understand and of the question they were asking her, or were she just drugged up. There been rumors for years she been using drugs, now I really wonder.

Scrutiny is such a strong word...she acts like she’s being stopped by a motorcycle cop with hemorrhoids every time she’s asked to answer questions about HER JOB! Over her head, as are all in this admin.

Special Olympics is a private non-profit that raises $100 million-plus from private sources government grants add $17 million but is this a job for the government? tell the full story

Special Olympics is funded 31.2 billion per year, its a pvt program, and they are cutting 18 million. They wont miss it.

CNN has Steve Bannon being interviewed by Anderson Cooper for an hour. Consider getting poop straight from the horse's mouth!

Nice lie. 18 million isnt billions

This needed a story? How about reporting on actual news That’s right you can’t/don’t. Everyone knows BetsyDeVosED is void of a soul.

ya done 👏

Hello, MSNBC social media pages! Stop smoking weed on the job! The Special Olympics funding is just 5 Drumpf trips to MarALago.

billions? think you mean millions, don't you?

I loved her work when she Rounded up all those kids in chitty chitty bang bang.
