SECRETARY OF EDUCATION BETSY DEVOS IS FIRED

AND A CRIMINAL

Education Secretary Skank Betsy DeVos Sued Over 455 Times, Most Ever in Department’s History

Coming from great wealth, what character flaw do you have to possess to decide you want to spend your life . . .
1) forming/running a Mercenary-For-Hire company
2) dismantling public education

Erik Prince, brother of public education privatizer Education Secretary Betsy Devos is a criminal.

DeVos Urges Education Department Employees To ‘Be The Resistance’ In Biden Administration

We don’t talk enough about what a garbage human Erik Prince is.
Blackwater aka #XeServices and now known as #Academi since 2011. Erik Prince, brother of Betsy Devos, former CEO of Blackwater, is assisting China with his new company- Frontier Services Group.
He’s literally training mercenaries in Xinjiang to brutalize Uyghurs & ethnic minorites in Western China and people barely talk about it. War crimes are cool with Trump as long as they were done working for the brother of Betsy DeVos. The Nisour Square Massacre. It wasn’t a simple shooting that the pardoned Blackwater contractors committed, it was a massacre. The four Blackwater asshole goons slaughtered Iraqi women and kids who had their hands in the air. Trump pardoned these war criminals to please his buddy Erik Prince, founder of Blackwater, and brother of Betsy DeVos who tried her best to harm our children. #ErikPrince & #BetsyDeVos

Uighur Concentration Camps in China built by Erik Prince.

Remember Blackwater/Erik Prince (brother of Betsy DeVos) and Prince’s “random” meeting in the Seychelles with the Putin Oligarch? What a coincidence that Betsy is in the cabinet w/no experience, just like Elaine Chao (McConnell’s wife)’s sister on the board of the BANK of CHINA

K12 JOINT RULE: EQUAL TREATMENT

Also last week, the Department announced a joint final rule with eight other federal agencies to implement Executive Order 13831, on the establishment of a White House Faith and Opportunity Initiative (May 3, 2018). This rule aims to ensure that religious and non-religious organizations are treated equally in agency-support programs, and it clarifies that religious organizations do not lose their legal protections and rights (e.g., the rights to accommodations and conscience protections under the First Amendment) just because they participate in federal programs and activities. The rule also removes requirements in prior regulations that placed unequal burdens on religious organizations (see Federal Register notice).

At the same time, the rule preserves most existing regulations governing participation of religious organizations in the Department’s financial assistance programs, including provisions barring providers from discriminating against beneficiaries based on religion and requiring that any religious activities be separated in time or location from any services directly funded with federal funding.

The nine agencies worked collaboratively to draft notices of proposed rulemaking that were published or delivered to Congress in January 2020. They received more than 95,000 public comments from a range of interested parties, including Members of Congress; state and local governments, agencies, and officials; faith-based service providers and umbrella organizations; advocacy groups; and individuals. They considered those comments, modified their rules to address concerns raised, and drafted responses that are recorded in the final rule.

This action follows past Department actions to protect religious liberty: ending enforcement of a restriction barring religious organizations from serving as contract providers of equitable services solely due to religious affiliation, updating the agency’s guidance on constitutionally protected prayer and religious expression in public elementary and secondary schools, issuing guidance to protect the religious liberty of individuals and institutions participating in Department programming, promulgating new rules to level the playing field for faith-based entities to participate in federal student aid programs, and implementing a rule to protect free inquiry and religious liberty on college campuses.

Blackstone to acquire Ancestry.com for $4.7 billion

Blackstone Group Inc (BX.N) said on Wednesday it agreed to acquire genealogy provider Ancestry.com Inc from private equity rivals for $4.7 billion, including debt, placing a big bet on family-tree chasing as well as personalized medicine.

Ancestry.com is the world’s largest provider of DNA services, allowing customers to trace their genealogy and identify genetic health risks with tests sent to their home.

Blackstone is hoping that more consumers staying at home amid the COVID-19 pandemic will turn to Ancestry.com for its services.

Blackstone is buying Ancestry.com from private equity firms Silver Lake, Spectrum Equity and Permira. Singapore’s sovereign wealth fund GIC, another Ancestry.com investor, said it will continue to maintain a significant minority stake in the company.

Trump, Betsy DeVos, and brother Erik Prince lead the worst Hate Group Families

Erik Prince Offered Lethal Services to Sanctioned Russian Mercenary Firm Wagner

Erik Prince, founder of the private security firm Blackwater and a Trump administration adviser, has sought in recent months to provide military services to a sanctioned Russian mercenary firm in at least two African conflicts, according to three people with knowledge of the efforts.

Prince, who is the brother of Trump Education Secretary Betsy DeVos, met earlier this year with a top official of Russia’s Wagner Group and offered his mercenary forces to support the firm’s operations in Libya and Mozambique, according to two people familiar with Prince’s offer.
Wagner officials said they are not interested in working with Prince, three people familiar with their decision told The Intercept.
A lawyer for Prince denied that his client met anyone from Wagner.
ChVK Wagner is really a unit of the Russian Ministry of Defence in disguise, which is used by the Russian government in conflicts where deniability is called for. It is believed to be owned by Yevgeny Prigozhin, a businessman with close links to Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Erik Prince { $1.3 billion in cash trust fund baby of Dutch parents}— founder of the private military company Blackwater, financial backer of President Donald Trump, brother to the new Education Secretary Betsy DeVos, and frequent Breitbart radio guest. By the mid 2000s, Blackwater was the largest, deadliest and most powerful private army in the world. Prince moved to the United Arab Emirates, where he is an advisor to the crown prince of Abu Dhabi. He has been operating as a CIA spy, as what Vanity Fair called “a Mr. Fix-It in the war on terror.”Today thanks to his family money and the incredible success of Blackwater during its heyday, Erik Prince has a personal net worth of $2.4 billion.

THE CULT

OF HATE 

TERROR GROUPS

The DeVos Dynasty: A Family of Extremists

DeVos’s background—and the transcript from Tuesday night’s hearing—shows that she instead represents an extremist, right-wing perspective.
Betsy’s husband, Dick DeVos, for instance, has pushed for creationism to be taught in schools.
Her late father, Edgar Prince, helped start the fundamentalist Family Research Council, a known anti-LGBT, or lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender, hate group.
Her mother Elsa Prince, also an extreme fundamentalist, was once called a “portrait of Christian hate” by the Daily Kos. She has been one of the biggest contributors to campaigns to ban same-sex marriage in the country, working against the civil rights issue in California and Michigan.

The DeVos family’s CULT OF HATE goes back more than a century.
DeVos’s father, Edgar Prince, made his fortune in manufacturing and soon began using his profits to fund far-right organizations.
Most notably, Edgar Prince was a founder of the Family Research Council, which argues that homosexuality is a type of perversion.
In 1999, an FRC staffer wrote, “Gaining access to children has been a long-term goal of the homosexual movement.” The comment helped put the group on the Southern Poverty Law Center’s hate group watch list.

Pence’s ascent to the second most powerful position in the U.S. government is a tremendous coup for the radical religious right. Prince’s family has a history of supporting right-wing and conservative causes. Edgar Prince, Erik’s father, was a major financial contributor to former President Gerald Ford, and in recent years, the family has supported Mike Pence, first as a member of Congress and later as Indiana governor.
