The daughter of the late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia has been appointed by Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin to serve on the Virginia Board of Education, drawing criticism from some Democrats who called the appointment politically motivated.
Meg Bryce, a psychology educator who unsuccessfully ran last year for an at-large seat on the Albemarle County school board, said Thursday at a business meeting that she was thankful that Youngkin chose her for the board, which is responsible for determining statewide curriculum standards, high school graduation requirements and qualifications for teachers.
…
Del. Katrina Callsen, a Democrat from Albemarle, said in a Tweet that Bryce was “a failed Moms for Liberty candidate.” Teacher and Democratic Sen. Schuyler VanValkenburg said on social media that Bryce had no credentials and “spent a year running for School Board embroiled in culture wars.”
At first I saw “psychology educator” and was thinking that at least she has some credentials, unlike Betsy DeVos who bought her position with daddy money. But then I found an article:

And that’s pretty much all I needed to know.
She has a doctorate in clinical psychology from UVA apparently. So she knows this is all bullshit culture war nonsense and is just clawing her way to the top.
Even highly educated people can fall down the rabbit hole of conspiracy theories and disinformation, or have fucked up religious beliefs. Yeah, many of them are grifters, but not all.
Degree does not equal intelligence. In a lot of cases it just means you went to class
Fuck nepotism.
A single family fucking up everyone’s lives in multiple ways. I guess we come from Adam and Eve now. You know, multicultural and open to other religions.
Well, he ran on putting the crazy parents in charge of our education system, and here he is delivering on that promise!
Fuck.
Nepotism.
