The Senate
confirmed Education Secretary Betsy DeVos. Now, there are 100 senators. She got
the votes of only half of them. So her first act is to make 50 count as a
passing grade. –Stephen Colbert
DeVos, our
secretary of education, has never attended, worked in, or sent her kids to
public school. So how did she get the nomination? Well, there’s a tiny chance
that money played a role, since DeVos’ family gave around $200 million to
Republican causes, including donations to four senators on the committee
overseeing her confirmation. Oooh, that reminds me of a math problem! “Betsy
has $200 million. She needs 50 votes. How much money can she give to each
senator to make sure public schools get less?” –Stephen Colbert
The
list is loaded with typos, like “attaker” instead of “attacker” and “Denmakr”
instead of “Denmark.” So at least we know Steve Bannon isn’t a grammar Nazi.
–Stephen Colbert
