DeVos Thread
Dick DeVos, Betsy's husband, is the chair of the board of the Global Leadership Network (Willow Creek Association) that runs The Global Leadership Summit. Nancy Beach, Jon Wallace, and Kara Powell resigned in 2015 because the Board would not investigate Bill Hybels.
Chicago Tribune:
Dick DeVos signed the May 2018 letter.

Here was my July 2018 response:
Dick DeVos inherited his money from his father who started Amway. (Listen to the The Dream podcast by Jane Marie about multi-level marketing (MLM)).
The DeVos family also opposed their local Congressman Justin Amash when as a Republican he voted to impeach Trump.

And Betsy's brother is Erik Prince, the founder of Blackwater. Blackwater employees slaughtered Iraqis. Trump pardoned them in December 2020.
The DeVos theme is defending unethical behavior in order to make money and get done what the DeVos family thinks needs to get done. The ends justify the means.
Betsy DeVos is resigning so she does not need to keep a man accountable.
