Actor Chris Evans is among those not happy with Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos:

It was getting way too easy for victims of sexual assault to navigate their horrific situation. Way to go, Betsy. https://t.co/OjVI7NEpmU

Given the subject of this post, it’s a little ironic:

You’d think Captain America would care more about due process. https://t.co/jr94M3FLus

TFW Captain America isn't a fan of good old fashioned American values like due process. https://t.co/fv30Io5nBF

So Capt. America is unfamiliar with Constitutional rights (#4A, #6A, #14A)
Yes, *actor* but obviously one who didn't research the role much. https://t.co/770hpn6SYB

The #dukelacrosse players might have something to say about this. Or don't they deserve the right to due process? https://t.co/p8PaODuY7F

imagine if Hollywood used the same standards to investigate rape and sexual assault as colleges? https://t.co/Li9G99Nnhu
