Liberals are whining about the cost of protecting the Education Secretary but they mention that they created the need for this protection ... from them.

Precisely.

Too bad the Democrats and Congressional Black Caucus are not solely charged for this ridiculous over the top amount of money being charged to tax payers.

Dear Post:

If you would tell your little pissant anarchists to quit attacking her you might see it go down

The Teacher’s unions must be terrified of her.

What did Valerie Jarrett’s unprecedented security detail cost? Never a peep from these hypocrites about that.

Solution is to start arresting and steep fines for the harassers.

Yes, I have a feeling the whole resistance movement could be stopped with a couple phone calls, but they would never admit that.

How much does it cost the U.S. to maintain security for Obama? How much did it cost them to protect him on vacay in polynesia?

How much will it cost per year? How much does he get per yr for retirement?

These are the costs that people should worry about.

Doesn’t this seem like an extremely high amount? What on earth are they doing to protect her that costs that amount?

Why the security detail? Hatred, sheer hatred, generated from the Leftists and abetted by Democrats, particularly Democrat Senators. The disease of viral hatred used to be more limited among Democrats, but now the majority seems to be infected.

If De Vos stays in the position for another 4,000 months it might be the rough equivalent of what zerobama gave to Iran. Although he probably gave them much more and simply didn’t disclose it.

Did lefties complain about the cost of that?

it is not her fault. Remove the threats and she won’t need a security detail It is a sad state of affairs when the woman can’t do her job in peace.
