President Biden's nominee for Deputy Secretary of Education Cindy Marten (@BeKindDreamBig) has said that kids getting sexually assaulted at school isn't necessarily a serious issue.
And implied educators have no moral duty to report sexual abuse city-journal.org/cindy-marten-b…

This shocking statement is consistent with a pattern of denying, covering up, and even retaliating against the victims of sexual abuse.
Many such cases! thefederalist.com/2021/01/29/bid…

Marten implied that sexual assault (rape) might not be serious if a disability was involved. Very consistent with her school district's decision to never tell the mother of a non-verbal student that her son was raped

The Democrats probably figured they could count on the mainstream media to run cover for them, even if they put forward a nominee whose #1 priority school was the site of an alleged child sex trafficking ring: sandiegoreader.com/news/2019/aug/…
And they were right!
ABC, CNN, NBC, and CBS were all sent a copy of this deposition where Marten morally equivocates on the sexual abuse of children.
I guess they don't find that newsworthy?
Took me about 15 minutes to find it.

Cynic in me says they probably would only have run it as a "Republicans pounce!" story anyway...
But maybe I'm not cynical enough... because 3 Republican Senators had this deposition, knew about the pattern of sex-abuse-cover-up, and didn't even ask Marten about it

Nor did any Republican Senators ask Marten about why she trained her white teachers that they were "spirit murdering" black kids, as @realchrisrufo has pointed out: city-journal.org/radicalism-in-…
I guess it's not really surprising that the Dems wouldn't grill one of their own, or that education journalists would overlook news stories about the sexual abuse of children if a Democrat nominee were involved.
But you'd really expect Republicans to object, at least a little

Maybe now that the info is public, rather than privately known within their offices, Senators might try asking some tough questions...
Or even consider opposing a woke-child-sexual-abuse-equivocator whom they expect to be the one actually running the Department of Ed (Fin)
