WEEKEND QUOTABLES


O'hare Airport Saturday night. 
Donald Trump  
 [Muslim ban] "is working out very nicely, and we’re going to have a very, very strict ban, and we’re going to have extreme vetting, which we should have had in this country for many years.” -- Washington Post
Naomi Klein
Let us be clear: This is not a peaceful transition of power. It’s a corporate takeover. -- The Nation
Yonatan Zunger
 The inner circle is actively probing the means by which they can seize unchallenged power; yesterday’s moves should be read as the first part of that. -- Trial balloon for a coup?
Bill Moyers
"In just a few days, Donald Trump seems to have set out to wreck government and turn over the remains to his plutocrat friends." -- Moyers & Company
Trump/Devos
Jeff Bryant
 What's sadly ironic is that these rural communities that will perhaps be most devastated by the school choice plan DeVos and Trump are about to foist on the nation are the very communities that voted Trump into office. -- Linkedin

Betty Downs, parent and ed activist in Athens, GA
 After years of supporting traditional Republican corporate education reform ideas, many Democrats seem to now realize how bad her [DeVos'] policies to “voucherize” American education would be for teaching and learning as well as the principle of educational equity. -- The Answer Sheet
