Randi Weingarten ripped after telling MSNBC 'we're going to try' to reopen schools after CDC mask guidance

American Federation of Teachers (AFT) President Randi Weingarten was ripped after hedging on whether or not U.S. schools would reopen in the fall during a Wednesday interview on MSNBC.

While having previously recommended that fully vaccinated individuals are not required to wear masks, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reversed guidance following the spread of the new Delta variant of the virus, announcing that vaccinated people should return to wearing masks indoors and suggesting universal masking in schools.

Weingarten called the guidance a "curveball," before suggesting that school reopenings this fall are not a done deal.

TEACHER SLAMS ‘DEMORALIZING’ NEW CDC MASK GUIDANCE FOR SCHOOLS: ‘KIDS NEED TO GET BACK TO NORMAL’

"So the bottom line is, we're going to keep kids safe, we're going to keep our members safe, we're going to try to open up schools, and we're going to move through this political battlefield," Weingarten said.

Critics picked up on her comment about the reopening of schools because it sounded like backpedaling from when she argued in May that "we can and we must reopen schools in the fall."

Biden and his loving union boss socialist pal....

Biden: If you were only under 15 what a good time we’d have.
Guess I can sniff you a little, though. A charity sniff.

***“...we’re going to move through this political battlefield,” Weingarten said.***

Hey, at least she’s admitted what it is.

Hubby thinks the CDC mask guidance change is because the teachers’ Unionistas got their collective panties in a wad when the CDC dropped the mandate in May, and let the administration know in no uncertain terms.

There is no science at the CDC. It’s been a political organization since the 1980’s at the very least.
