'Little House on the Prairie' actress rips DeVos: She's a 'moron'
http://thehill.com/blogs/in-the-know/in-the-know/378731-little-house-on-the-prairie-actress-rips-devos-shes-a-moron“Little House on the Prarie” actress Melissa Gilbert said Thursday she thinks Education Secretary Betsy DeVos is “a moron.”
“I think she needs to be removed as quickly as possible,” Gilbert told TMZ.
Like DeVos, Gilbert is a Michigan-native. Her comments come in the wake of a “60 Minutes” interview in which DeVos struggled to explain why Michigan public schools were having a hard time under policies she promoted.
“I have friends who are teachers who are just mind-boggled by her,” she said.

Gilbert ran for Congress in Michigan as a Democrat in 2016. She won her primary, but later dropped out of the race due to health concerns.
