Weingarten criticized the “privatization” of education, insisting that the efforts to break public schools’ chokehold on education are preventing “kids from recover[ing] from learning loss, sadness, depression and other effects of the pandemic.”

Outrageous!

“Weingarten denounces ‘laws restricting what teachers can teach and students can learn — particularly about about race, gender, LGBTQ issues, current events and American history; and laws attacking kids who are transgender,’ claiming that these laws are fomenting ‘hostility and fear.’”

Whatever happened to teaching reading, writing and arithmetic?

This is an opening salvo into the government making home schooling illegal. “Leaders” like Weingarten, after all, know better how to educate your kids than you do.

So, I guess she will be renouncing her law degree, which she received from a private religious school. Probably not.

To an aggressive, communist lesbian, I guess any diversion of kids from her control would seem like extremism.

But, to paraphrase Barry Goldwater, "extremism in the pursuit of protecting our children is no vice".

And there it is. Easy attack for the unions toward a major threat to their livelihoods.

Where is the video clip of her jumping up and down waving her arms demanding some type of federal dollar$?

She is deranged.

This statement is not a surprise. Randi Weingarten is pure evil.

Randi Weingarten is a Jewish lesbian. Probably close friends with Richard/Rachel Levine, the Biden Regime’s trans woman.

A little background.

Randi Weingarten (born December 18, 1957)[1] is an American labor leader, attorney, and educator. She is president of the American Federation of Teachers (AFT) and a member of the AFL–CIO. She is the former president of the United Federation of Teachers.

This B!tch was an “EDUCATOR” from 1991-1997. WOW, one hell of a long and impactful career.

She STOPPED being an “EDUCATOR” 26 years ago.

The teachers Union should be broken. They are causing the destruction of a generation with all their gay and equity nonsense.
