Yes, Sahila, that is true.
And the Alliance/LEV/OSC is holding him up as a shining example of what? Well, the event will be fun to report on.
Like I have said before, those two, Rhee and Johnson, deserve each other.

And to be clear also, that Michelle Rhee’s fiance, Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson has been accused of sexual and financial misconduct, in having under age sex, in trying to silence a complainant by offering ‘hush’ money and in misappropriating federal funds …

Just to be clear about this, KIPP and Greendot are charter school franchises.
