More people should see Elizabeth Warren's brutal fight back against Betsy DeVos's nomination at her confirmation hearing.
When Betsy DeVos did get confirmed, Elizabeth Warren launched #DeVosWatch to fight back against her policies, and shed light on her actions.

To add some more color to the Betsey DeVos fight:

It was Elizabeth Warren that led that fight, with the help of many of her Democratic colleagues.

She lost that fight but she fought all the way. https://twitter.com/CBSEveningNews/status/826529227134623745
Elizabeth Warren tore in to Betsy DeVos when she got the opportunity to question her.
And tore in to her some more.
She even lightheartedly tried to make a Super Bowl bet with the Republicans to prevent a DeVos confirmation. 😂

@SenWarren: "How about we put a vote for Betsy DeVos on the line?"

@SenatorIsakson: "That's more than a gamble."
Then some conservatives threw tantrums that she didn’t shake DeVos’s hand.

Warren was perfectly civil, but why should she shake the hand of a billionaire becoming education secretary who had worked to destroy public education and had financial ties to debt collection businesses.
The Republicans got so tired of the fight Elizabeth Warren led against Betsy DeVos’s nomination, they ran some silly attack ads against her.
But Elizabeth Warren persisted. She laid out her argument in an all-night protest. On the Senate floor. https://twitter.com/keithboykin/status/828765170784731141
And outside the Senate. https://twitter.com/mattmfm/status/828949204659732484
I think it’s important the next president is a person who cares about public education and the student loan debt burden as much as Elizabeth Warren does.

Elizabeth Warren hasn't stopped fighting against Betsy DeVos. https://twitter.com/ajplus/status/867400565894004736
No one has taken on Betsy DeVos as fiercely and consistently as Elizabeth Warren has. https://twitter.com/nowthisnews/status/871049597879164928
