Betsy DeVos‘ first week as the Secretary of Education is off to a rough start.
Just moments ago, DeVos was caught on camera by an ABC affiliate trying to enter a local public school in our nation’s capital before being being blocked at the entrance by angry protestors.
“GO BACK!” one of the men can be clearly heard saying. “SHAME! SHAME! SHAME! SHAME!” the small vociferous crowd continued.
Another angry patron outside the school says, “She does not represent anything that they stand for!”
“Keep giving money to Senate and buying your way into the position,” another angrily adds. “You should be so proud of yourself!” the small crowd mocked in defiance of DeVos. It is unclear at this time if Secretary DeVos was able to enter the school building through another door, or if the plans for the day were scraped altogether.
