I even expected DeVos to be confirmed, and I still can't believe how much rage I'm feeling right now.

Don't need to. They are burning it all down. At this point they are going to appoint completely unqualified and incompetent people to all positions in government. Upside, they shouldn't be able to get anything done?
My rage level is off the charts, but my fears are more with the court appointments because they are the only ones that can stop the madness.
I'm rage-eating potato chips.
It occurs to me that now our kids will have the literacy level of the current POTUS (who, I'm more and more convinced is actually functionally illiterate, and I'm not joking).
My one, slim hope is that DeVos won't be able to navigate the bureaucracy any better than Trump, and the Department itself (which probably has a lot of competent, dedicated people in it) will be able to slow her roll.
Maybe she can't read, either.
DOE doesn't like her, do they? It won't be fun over there, but I bet there will be a lot of stonewalling.
