What's the biggest threat to public school funding and local community services? Ed Secretary Betsy DeVos is certainly one of them -- but there's another, more insidious & stealthy danger lurking: charity. In this episode Paul reveals how the Policy Circle, a women's 501c3 charitable organization, partnered with other dark money charities to run a slate of candidates in local school board, park district and municipal races in New Trier Township. Plus we'll explore how billionaire Policy Circle founder Sylvie (and her husband RNC Finance Chair Todd) Ricketts managed to fight against local spending while underpaying their own property taxes for nearly a decade! It's a wacky story jam-packed with interviews and cameos... and should be essential listening for all public school educators and lovers of local government. Legal threats, racism, harassment, stalking... this one's got it all!
