About this episode
Donald Trump has nominated Linda McMahon, a former executive with World Wrestling Entertainment and twice-failed Senate candidate as well as the Administrator of the Small Business Administration under his first term, to lead the Department of Education. Speaking about her nomination in early February, Trump said he wants her to put herself out of a job - to shutter the US Department of Education.
McMahon is wholly unqualified to run the Department. The nomination of this multi-billionaire serves the interests of those who want to roll back the basic right to an education for all people, a right that is steeped in working-class and especially Black history in this country.
We’re joined today by Nathalie Hrizi. Vice President of Substitutes for United Educators of SF and long-time public school teacher.
Later in the show, we discuss the threats posed by the CIA flying Reaper drones over Mexico, and we celebrate the release of political prisoner Leonard Peltier.
