Democratic senators on Dec. 14, called DeVos to ensure that a political action committee she controlled pays $5.3 million in fines and penalties owed for campaign finance violations in Ohio eight years ago. DeVos’ All Children Matter PAC broke Ohio election law by funneling $870,000 in contributions from its nationwide PAC to its Ohio affiliate in 2008. The state of Ohio later fined the group $5 million, but the fine has not yet been paid. (AP Photo/Paul Sancya, File)

I know, politics can be boring. Nominations and confirmation hearings seem so far removed from how we live our lives that very few actually tune in to CSPAN to watch. What if there was a nominee, though, who actually got people excited? One who would actually make a tangible difference for future generations?

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Trump’s nominee for Education Secretary, Betsy DeVos. What’s so exciting about her? She’s about empowering parents and communities through school choice, ensuring that all students have access to the best education regardless of income.
