Betsy DeVos' 'clerical error' dates back to nearly two decades
By Dan Merica, Aaron Kessler and Sara Ganim, CNN

Washington (CNN)

Betsy DeVos, President-elect Donald Trump's pick to lead the Education Department, is seeking to dismiss questions about donations to Focus on the Family from a foundation tied to her.

She said at her confirmation hearing Tuesday that a "clerical error" led to her being listed as an officer of her mother's multi-million-dollar foundation, which made the donations.
That error, however, dates back as early as 1999, when the Edgar & Elsa Prince Foundation filed its 1998 federal tax returns, according to IRS documents obtained by CNN. Edgar and Elsa Price are Betsy DeVos' parents.
DeVos was listed as a vice president of the charity for 17 consecutive years, including most recently in the organization's 2014 tax filing.

Through the foundation she has donated vast sums of money to anti LGBT organizations.

Love is not obedience, conformity, or submission. It is a counterfeit love that is contingent upon authority, punishment, or reward. True love is respect and admiration, compassion and kindness, freely given by a healthy, unafraid human being....  - Dan Barker

Focus on the Family is a hate group according to the SPLC, and they have a particular dislike for the LGBTQ community. That's the link.

I knew AFA was declared a hate group, but not aware FOF was, this is good.  They are very stealthy in their evil as well.
