Education Secretary's Math Fail Sparks Senate Hearing Debate

Linda McMahon, the former Secretary of Education, faced scrutiny during a recent Senate hearing for her apparent inability to perform simple math. Senator Kennedy highlighted a $1.5 billion annual expenditure over 10 years, which McMahon incorrectly calculated as $1.5 trillion. "She also can't do math," stated the video's creator, emilyw422. The hearing also revealed a lack of oversight regarding the distribution of funds, which McMahon admitted she couldn't audit. This incident has sparked debate about her qualifications and the future of education policy. Senator Reed's intervention to bring "intelligence" to the issue adds another layer to this ongoing discussion. The incident underscores the importance of accountability and transparency in government spending.
