Wheat Industries The only qualifications that Trump meets to be president are that he's over 35 and a natural born citizen. He fails in the most important qualification of putting the prosperity and well being of the American people before his own, which is evidenced by his ludicrous refusal to put his assets in a blind trust. He'll be in violation of the Constitution the day he walks into the Oval Office.
holy crap, I have more experience with federal student loan programs and the Pell Grant program than our new secretary of education! This is a travesty
Let's be honest people, do any of you really think that if you walked into a job interview where you has no education or experience in the field and could not even answer basic questions about the basic function of the job that you would get that job? No, no you would not. This has nothing to do with partisan politics or whose nomination this is, this is simply a question of whether or not the person is qualified for the job. Devos is woefully unqualified to run the Department of Education.
job interview Trump has interviewed and hired her He feels she is prefect for what he wants to do that is why the "progressives" panties are riding up on them. WE DON'T LIKE WHAT SHE WILL DO IS NOT A VALID REASON NOT TO CONFIRM.
It's decidedly odd that you think that I was arguing that 'I don't like what she will do' since I mentioned nothing at all in my original statement about what she says she intends to do in her capacity as SoE. What I did state is that she has no educational background concerning education or experience with the public education system, even so far as neither she nor her children ever attended one, and that she is unable to answer direct questions concerning the basic function of said system. While 'I don't agree with her views personally' is not a valid reason for denying conformation, she doesn't understand the department she would be running definitely is.
No, they do not "run" the local school system. That goes without saying. Local school systems are ran by local school boards who teach according to state and federal guidelines. Why on earth would anyone advocate running the federal branch of education 'into the ground'??? We need better standards in our school systems. Tighter standards. Not less standards and not looser standards if we are going to succeed and compete in the future. We're far enough behind and weakening our schools is not going to make it better. That's like arguing that the best way to have combat disease is with less medical access and research or that the best way to combat poverty is with less opportunities and less jobs, or the best way to combat homelessness is with less houses.
I'm genuinely shocked and terrified this many people don't seem to mind someone who literally admitted to having ZERO experience in the field she has been nominated for, be put in charge of such matters. Donald Trump has proven just how low American standards for leaders are, and people wonder why our leaders seem so incompetent.
Demarcus Franklin How many doctors with no experience do you go to? Would you let a really confident hobo with no experience prescribe drugs to your kids? No. Can anyone just show up to your job today and do it better than you?
Demarcus Franklin You're technically right experience doesn't equal good decisions, but not having experience is arguably worse. You are implying DeVos' destruction of public education would be better than someone attempting to "fix the unfixable" even though we don't know if it actually is "unfixable." Education has its flaws, which is why we work to better understand them and try to improve. Thinking just blowing it up by putting someone in with no knowledge and experience on the subject is better than having someone with experience, someone we cannot even name because we don't know who Hillary would have picked, is childish. Come back to reality and stop trying to deflect. We have someone being considered with no knowledge and experience on the matter she's being considered to head. Your point is completely irrelevant because it doesn't apply since DeVos has no experience. This should concern people. if it doesn't concern you, then you're just feeding into my narrative; that (if you really are American), you have very low standards for someone in power.
She has a ton of enemies its obvious she has some kind of vendatta against President -Elect Trump. I think she is very impartial. Also she is just plain ass rude.
EmoryM These rules would apply only to vocational schools (or career colleges as Elizabeth Warren refers to them in the video). Classes like gender and/or African studies would not likely be offered there, and as such, your comment is completely irrelevant to the conversation at hand.
Pocahantas knows how to complete a questionnaire to maximize her personal gain. How dare Betsy and her family not participate in Pell grants or government loans. Deplorable.
You cannot get that far, to be in front of that committee, and have a reasonable rational unbiased objective view. It's always clawing at you the partisan aspect that got you there in the first place. How unfortunate.
Are public universities being held accountable to the "gainful employment rule"? Doesn't seem to be the case when they take $200k in tuition for a women's studies degree.
well be monies, but moneys is also right. This has some good info on that, while not incorrect it is pretty rare i hear someone use the word monies lol www.quickanddirtytips.com/education/grammar/money-monies-or-moneys
God she is being roasted so badly I feel bad for her. She has no clue what everyone is throwing at her, this is what happens when you are appointed a job you know nothing about.
Wouldn't you review all policies and rules when taking a new position? Wouldn't you talk to any current staff and find out their experiences, ideas and frustrations?
There are many colleges with credibility that left students high and dry without any career resources...so...Warren needs to rethink her strategy here.
What are you even talking about? Devos went to an elite, private college as well... Only difference here is that Warren actually knows what she's talking about and isn't from one of THE RICHEST families in America. smh at Trump fans who just voted in the wealthiest cabinet of all time made up of, literally, TO A T, the exact people they claim to want out of DC. Huge CEO's like tillerson, multi-millionaires like Devos, Wall street Dons like Mnuchin etc... There's not a single person in trump's team who has not checked at least one of those boxes. Not to mention the fact that you retards already got completely duped by the whole mexican border wall scenario. Congress is gonna foot the bill? Then how are we going to make Mexico pay for it after? Hm? Economic sanctions against a country that controls the cheap labor? Hmm think not. Swear to god i'll post a video of me hanging myself if you can post a photo of your birth records proving you aren't straight autistic. Your mom must have ate paint chips when she had you. smh.
@opco10 She went to an "elite" school with 70+% acceptance. She hasn't earned a thing in her life. She shouldn't dictate the future of those who struggle and work hard to make a future for themselves.
Lucia Rojas "This person,". You really should identify who your talking about, so that your readers will know. Do you mean Ms. Betsy Devos, or the Snator asking Decos questions. I guess according to these democrat Senators the only person qualified to be secretary would be a past secretary.
the school system is a joke I have grade school kids I have kids that have graduated and I would help them with their homework read the books and just scratch my head on why this book was written like this with mistakes and obvious errors
to Bernie sanders would you have been able to afford your new house if you hadn't agreed to get out of the race and not attack Clinton. I hope she gave you a substantial fee for letting your people down. ty benedict sanders
Warren did a good job, but Devos should have practiced with "No, but......" Also, just because something is a law doesn't mean it can't be a bad law. That was the correct response in that she will review the laws and make sure they are to the benefit of the students.
Wow. Does this lady know anything? I mean how do you plan to be the head of a department you know nothing about? I'm curious to know what get plans are.
This is an embarrassing turn in American leadership... This candidate is a wonderful person, but NOT qualified to TEACH in a school....let alone LEAD every school in country.... I can't go on with these nominees.....one ignorant, misplaced, mismatched billionaire after another. As a kindergarten teacher, I BEG you to plead for a second choice.... there has to be another candidate ???!,
Trump Supporters, this isn't a party issue. This is a qualification issue.
Too bad (most) democrat committee members don't agree with you.
His presidency is a qualification issue.
Wheat Industries He doesn't have the same opinions as "they" do.
"perceived" moral obligation..... yep.
Wheat Industries The only qualifications that Trump meets to be president are that he's over 35 and a natural born citizen. He fails in the most important qualification of putting the prosperity and well being of the American people before his own, which is evidenced by his ludicrous refusal to put his assets in a blind trust. He'll be in violation of the Constitution the day he walks into the Oval Office.
Appointing a candidate with no experience is so ridiculous DT administration is a frickin joke
derick basilo yeah Warren has 0 native American heritage yet she took one from a native
No one will shut up. It hasn't even started. You voted for a bunch of morons and they are going to be called out constantly.
get used to it. not one blunder is going unnoticed and will be called out. wonder when we will have time to take a breath....they just keep coming....
Well she is an outsider. Aren't people fed up with insiders?
haha so winning means you don't have to do a good job once elected? dude clues you seem clueless
I could watch Elizabeth Warren grill people all day. Lmfao this is so juicy.
You could watch Elizabeth Warren create false moral equivalences all day? Well then you are just as morally bankrupt as her and her supporters.
Steel Magnolia Gowdy all day boi!
+jose9th AH HA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! no.
Brandon . ahh....i believe youre trusting DJT for your accusations. typical sheep who feels comfortable behind premier trump
Michael Laurenzana how dare Pocahontas call out this nominee for having no qualifications for this position. shes nuts
If this woman gets voted through after getting ROASTED, I give up on congress.
She will. And I think the hard left will learn a hard lesson about the sausage of politics here.
Will Putz I gave up on Congress long ago, truthfully.
it's a republican congress though. A democrat congress would never allow this lady to become secretary of education.
Will Putz time to give up
its bill gates to you son. - hahahahahahahahahahaha. Not enough characters to express my laughter.
I'm sorry, but if you don't fill out the paperwork, you should not be eligible for the job.
EXACTLY!!! WHY TF DOES A PERSON WITH ZERO EXPERIENCE IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS OR STUDENT LOANS GET TO GOVERN THEM? This is bs.
She literally cooked her..
holy crap, I have more experience with federal student loan programs and the Pell Grant program than our new secretary of education! This is a travesty
Let's be honest people, do any of you really think that if you walked into a job interview where you has no education or experience in the field and could not even answer basic questions about the basic function of the job that you would get that job?

job interview

He feels she is prefect for what he wants to do
that is why the "progressives" panties are riding up on them.
WE DON'T LIKE WHAT SHE WILL DO IS NOT A VALID REASON
NOT TO CONFIRM.
"No experience and can't answer basic questions" is a pretty good reason not to confirm.
It's decidedly odd that you think that I was arguing that 'I don't like what she will do' since I mentioned nothing at all in my original statement about what she says she intends to do in her capacity as SoE. What I did state is that she has no educational background concerning education or experience with the public education system, even so far as neither she nor her children ever attended one, and that she is unable to answer direct questions concerning the basic function of said system. While 'I don't agree with her views personally' is not a valid reason for denying conformation, she doesn't understand the department she would be running definitely is.
MsAnthropea Necrosis Perhaps that is the idea. Run the department of education to the ground. They do not really run your local schools.
No, they do not "run" the local school system. That goes without saying. Local school systems are ran by local school boards who teach according to state and federal guidelines. Why on earth would anyone advocate running the federal branch of education 'into the ground'??? We need better standards in our school systems. Tighter standards.

Dayyymmmm Elizabeth came with a blow torch! Straight surgical with the questioning. Betsy has nothing 😂
That's how Elizabeth rolls. LOL No time for the bs.

Experience doesn't equate good decisions. Hillary Clinton is proof.

Danny Mansfield thank you....
wtf? Devos is probably the worst pick ever. I would say she's even worst than Mnuchin.
Munchkin...................
Steel Magnolia simple typo, do not straw man the argument because you don't have an answer
her system doesn't even work, what are you talking about...
trippplefive he appointed them because they paid for his campaign.
trippplefive I'm sure they will use the system to get their money back.
SMDH this lady has no plan. Absolutely sickening to watch. She has no business being the Secretary of Education!
DAMN I love Elizabeth Warren!!!
She has done good work but I am not sure the optics for Warren is good. She comes across like a school teacher in the way she talks and such.
redwhitedude what does the way she talks have to do with anything
That's Massachusetts for ya 💪💪💪
Funny!
She has a ton of enemies its obvious she has some kind of vendatta against President -Elect Trump. I think she is very impartial. Also she is just plain ass rude.
Elizabeth Warren reminds me of a former female boss I had. Every discussion was a roasting :-)
Mmm discussion, wasn't this a hearing?
Rumsquall it was a God damned slaughter, is what it was
Rumsquall Yeah, my boss would also hear me and roast me.
Holy moly that is what we call getting demolished at an interview. I love Warren.
Kim Kardashian would be a better candidate. This is a joke.
"I will look forward to working with you.." is Devos-speak for "I am not going to answer your question."
Pocahontas didn't complain when she was paid $400,000 to teach a single class at Harvard.
God, DeVos is sooooooo unqualified.
Betsy DeFraud got drraaaaagggeddd by Elizabeth Warren!! LOL
It sounds like that gainful employment rule would get rid of gender and African studies. Do it.
EmoryM These rules would apply only to vocational schools (or career colleges as Elizabeth Warren refers to them in the video). Classes like gender and/or African studies would not likely be offered there, and as such, your comment is completely irrelevant to the conversation at hand.
EmoryM lol, fair enough. I guess that's a pretty common theme amongst Trump's cabinet picks.
EmoryM I hope Elizabeth Warren burns down all football stadiums? How's that?
tas4240 s
Thank you Elizabeth Warren!
DRAG HER ELIZABETH!!! DRAG HER TO THE FLOOR!!!!!
even i got uncomfortable watching this video, they can't possibly confirm this person, right?
ZERO Qualifications. WTF?! How is this happening?
In the pursuit of a better education system, a thorough, aggressive, questioning was definitely necessary.
Pocahantas knows how to complete a questionnaire to maximize her personal gain. How dare Betsy and her family not participate in Pell grants or government loans. Deplorable.
If there already laws and rules in place to stop abuse of federal programs, WHY is there still abuse?
Elizabeth Warren talking about "student aid"........from a woman who went to Harvard as a "Native American"
THAT WAS AWESOME!!!!!
“Equal rights for all, special privileges for none.” ? No?
You cannot get that far, to be in front of that committee, and have a reasonable rational unbiased objective view. It's always clawing at you the partisan aspect that got you there in the first place. How unfortunate.
How do I get a ticket to this Jerry Springer Show? No, DeVos confirmation looks slim to none!😂
lady doesn't know how to answer a question
I'm sure she went home and said "momma needs a big drink"
Show us some evidence the money we spend on education is getting into the right hands. Since the 1970 we have steadily declined in math to 31st.
she's got absolutely NO IDEA what's she's talking about!
This country elected a man with NO EXPERIENCE to run the country!! Should we really expected him to appoint competent people to be apart of his staff?
Shes going to review the laws about fraud before deciding to enforce them? That is NOT her job and it is a preposterous answer.
Are public universities being held accountable to the "gainful employment rule"? Doesn't seem to be the case when they take $200k in tuition for a women's studies degree.
Sure, Betsy should be Secretary of Education; Dr. Phil can be the Surgeon General.
I don't want a secretary of education who can't grammatically say money.
Go! Go! Mrs DeVos, you are the second best. The good future days of American people are endless.
The question is very simple. Can you follow and enforce the rules and guidelines of your department
yes or no?
How can any lifelong politician delegate a billion dollars where did they get the experience of handling a billion dollars
The best idea would be to eliminate the Department of Education, so I'm hoping she starts that deconstruction.
There is your next President, America.
According to Warren, being a Secretary Of Education is easy. All you have to do is enforce already existing rules. Very funny line of questioning.
I'm telling you folks, Senator Warren 2020! She'll wipe the floor with Trump
Private schools are 10x better then public.
Donald J Trump ,75% of Americans go to public schools who can afford to go to a private school !
around 3.30ish did she say federal moneys !
Ari R that's actually correct.
well be monies, but moneys is also right. This has some good info on that, while not incorrect it is pretty rare i hear someone use the word monies lol www.quickanddirtytips.com/education/grammar/money-monies-or-moneys
A more accurate alternative title for this video would be, "Entrenched corrupt lying politician hassles well respected education reformer."
Facepalmest appointment so far.
Someone take Ms. Devos off the grill; she's DONE!
It all comes down to money.
Pocahontas needs to lay off the firewater.
Betsy Devos to disband the Department of Education!!!
Betsy Devos will be an AMAZING SECRETARY OF EDUCATION
Democrats lecturing about enforcing laws is hysterical.
Sean Chaney This has nothing to do with rather or not you are a Democrat or republican. This is about education and the future of this country.
Senator, I have Naaahht
i'm distracted by how amazing the camera quality is. what did they say?
God she is being roasted so badly I feel bad for her. She has no clue what everyone is throwing at her, this is what happens when you are appointed a job you know nothing about.
Wouldn't you review all policies and rules when taking a new position? Wouldn't you talk to any current staff and find out their experiences, ideas and frustrations?
There are many colleges with credibility that left students high and dry without any career resources...so...Warren needs to rethink her strategy here.
im confused so if these ppl that are senators have no experience then why should they get a chance at the job???
Everyone else keep seein' those ghastly timed smirks she keeps pulling?
Betsy DeVos wins the title of the WORST Secretary of Education nominee.
This is the first time she has been talked down to like this since she was about 16 years old. And no her husband doesn't count.
Why is she trying so hard to not say yes or no?
Smiles because if she makes any promise at all, she knows she can't keep it.
That was a No Vaseline conversation.
Why is she interviewing herself
Brilliant-Senator Warren!!
Dismantle the department of dumification!
This was so beautiful. Like watching Ali box... poetry in motion. Warren is the Champ!
Cheree Ree she is a piece of garbage.
Like the one you went to, Pocohantas?
What are you even talking about? Devos went to an elite, private college as well... Only difference here is that Warren actually knows what she's talking about and isn't from one of THE RICHEST families in America. smh at Trump fans who just voted in the wealthiest cabinet of all time made up of, literally, TO A T, the exact people they claim to want out of DC.

Don't disrespect people who have autism. They are some of the coolest people on Earth.
this person is just straight up stupid and idiotic.
@opco10 She went to an "elite" school with 70+% acceptance. She hasn't earned a thing in her life. She shouldn't dictate the future of those who struggle and work hard to make a future for themselves.

Did she just say moneys ?

Wealthy people are the real entitled ones among us.

Elizabeth Warren is missing her feathers... :)
DAMN! that was brutal! Betsy Devos is so incredibly unqualified for this position
Would Elizabeth Warren just go away.
Warren did a good job, but Devos should have practiced with "No, but......" Also, just because something is a law doesn't mean it can't be a bad law. That was the correct response in that she will review the laws and make sure they are to the benefit of the students.
Big "L" for Conservatives
You go Mrs Warren!! I enjoyed watching this, Mrs Betsy has no reason too be SOE!!
I hate student loans, its a trap that I fell for and now im in debt 50,000. cant pay it back
Ever wonder what the greek titans looked like staring from their prison awaiting their inevitable release by Hades
She doesn't believe in helping the poor to get an education, but her and her children got their education paid for from rich daddy.
" I am going to drain the swamp"- Trump * and then I am going to fill it up ten times worse with parasites.
Wow. Does this lady know anything? I mean how do you plan to be the head of a department you know nothing about? I'm curious to know what get plans are.
What are these hearings actually for? I'm not American so I don't really know
this is sad. thanks Warren for shedding light on this billionaire corrupted woman
what have the Trump voters done 😖
Standards have been lowered. Now go be great again!
Why does the government, our taxes, go to educate people who should be paying their own way. What don't we pay for. Students can go slower and work.
This is an embarrassing turn in American leadership... This candidate is a wonderful person, but NOT qualified to TEACH in a school....let alone LEAD every school in country.... I can't go on with these nominees.....one ignorant, misplaced, mismatched billionaire after another. As a kindergarten teacher, I BEG you to plead for a second choice.... there has to be another candidate ???!,
What happens if they don't get confirm?
49DRmc new candidate is introduced
Elizabeth Warren bloviating about enforcing the rules is laughable at best.
thecohorts right ?? now imagine betsy. you're a moron
Dang she slammed the chair even before starting with Devos haha
RUN LADY..RUN!
