Betsy DeVos, the US secretary of education known for her track record of anti-LGBTQ+ policies, has resigned amid calls for Donald Trump to be removed from office following right-wing riots in the country’s capital.
DeVos condemned the recent Washington DC riots in a tweet: “Congress assembled to fulfill its Constitutional duty to certify the election of the next President of the United States, and the same Constitution I swore an oath to support and defend.
An angry mob cannot be allowed to attack our Capitol and impede this process. The disruptions and violence must end, the law must be upheld, and the work of the people must go on.”According to Them, DeVos has left a “trail of devastation in her wake that will wreak suffering and harm on.
