Think again. Weingarten has been touting a report from Politifact that absolves her from any wrongdoing or feet-dragging during COVID, but don&#8217;t let her or Politifact get away with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/kayleigh-mcenany-sounds-off-on-don-lemon-after-cnn-host-says-opposition-to-crt-rooted-in-privilege\/\" title=\"Kayleigh McEnany Sounds Off On Don Lemon After CNN Host Says Opposition To CRT Rooted In \u2018Privilege\u2019\">whitewashing history<\/a>. Her actions stunted an entire generation of kids and unleashed a deluge of negative consequences as a result of keeping kids out of school for so long.<\/p>\n<h3>The Truth About Weingarten&#8217;s Actions<\/h3>\n<p>In the spring of 2020, Weingarten said schools could only re-open if done \u201csafely.\u201d What did \u201csafely\u201d look like to Weingarten? Well, at the time she said that in-school learning could only happen if teachers across America received at least an \u201cadditional 19% \u2014 $116.5 billion \u2014 from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/randi-weingarten-politifact-each-get-a-big-fat-f-for-covid-history-revisionism\/\" title=\"Randi Weingarten and Politifact both fail with COVID history revisionism.\">pre-virus funding levels<\/a> to stabilize budgets and then reopen safely.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>What does advocating limiting the number of tests or forgiveness of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/poll-50-point-drop-for-biden-among-young-people\/\" title=\"Poll: 50 Point Drop for Biden Among Young People\">student-loan debt<\/a> have to do with re-opening safely? Nothing. Weingarten used the pandemic to push for more and more demands and to demonize members of the Trump administration.<\/p>\n<p>As pointed out by HotAir\u2019s David Strom, \u201cCongress wound up passing $190 billion in funding to meet her demands, and it still didn\u2019t move her.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When it became patently obvious that untold damage was being done, and that maybe kids should have been in school long before they finally returned, Weingarten said it was no biggie because \u201ckids are resilient.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>The Consequences of Weingarten&#8217;s Actions<\/h3>\n<p>While Weingarten was running around doing media interviews, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/rnc-chair-condemns-biden-abortion-policy\/\" title=\"RNC chair condemns Biden abortion policy\">mental health problems<\/a> for America\u2019s youth were skyrocketing, as were drug addictions, and learning loss.<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to the damage done by keeping kids out of school for so long, CNN Senior political analyst and father of four Scott Jennings said it best: \u201cI am stunned at what you have said this week\u2026I think you\u2019ll find that most parents believe you are the tip of the sphere of school closures\u2026I hear no remorse whatsoever about the generational damage that\u2019s been done\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>The Bottom Line<\/h3>\n<p>Don&#8217;t let Weingarten or Politifact get away with their COVID revisionism. The truth is clear: Weingarten&#8217;s actions stunted an entire generation of kids and unleashed a deluge of negative consequences as a result of keeping kids out of school for so long. It&#8217;s time to hold her accountable.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Use h2 and h3 tags to break up the text and make it more scannable<\/li>\n<li>Use bold to emphasize key points<\/li>\n<li>Use lists to make information easier to digest<\/li>\n<li>Include links to sources to back up assertions<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Randi Weingarten thinks you are an idiot.
