Teachers Can’t Afford Supplies, But Betsy DeVos Will Pay For Their Guns


The US Department of Education is considering a proposal that would free up some federal money to arm and train teachers in this country how to kill people. This proposal comes at a time when teachers all over the country are paying more than $1,000 each year out of their own pockets on school supplies because schools are so dangerously underfunded, and the administration has actually reduced the amount that teachers can write off on taxes. But Betsy DeVos wants to carry the NRA’s water, and now she’s offering to buy them all guns. What could go wrong? A lot, as Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains.
