The head of America's second-largest teacher's union walked back her criticism of Florida's governor less than 24 hours after she said 'millions' would die because of his COVID-19 'ignorance.' Randi Weingarten, president of the American Federation of Teachers, retweeted a Washington Post article about anti-Dr. Anthony Fauci merchandise being sold on the Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis's official website.'Disgusting. Millions of Floridians are going to die for Ron DeSantis’ ignorance and he’s choosing to profit from it. He doesn’t care about Floridians; he cares about furthering his own cruel agenda,' Weingarten tweeted.

Wouldn't one begin to wonder if the teachers of our most precious resource be precluded from having a union? Teaching is supposed to be one of the most noble professions but after looking at and listening to the leader, I think great damage has been done to that image.

This commie is one of the biggest reasons we have at least a generation of America hating mutants that were turned out of the public school system. She need a good neck stretching with a stout rope.
DeSantis has been proven right over and over. His instinct was to open his state earlier than most others, and he was right. He saw this crap for what it was early.

If you believe the CDC, approximately 600,000 Americans have died from Covid in the last 18 months. That is in the entire country. And we all know that a strong majority of those were old and sick people, who probably died from something else but just happened to have Covid when they died.
Yet this "Einstein" said that millions are going to die in Florida alone, even though the virus is massively waning, and a large chunk of the population is vaccinated there and/or already had Covid, got over it, and have antibodies to keep it from happening again.
And lie-berals wonder why nobody ever takes them seriously!!!

If the members of the teacher's unions put in the same amount of effort into teaching that they put into political causes, we would have the smartest kids on the planet.

The teacher unions are responsible for the deaths of thousands of our children due to depression and suicide, when they refused to do their job and instead insisted on distance learning, keeping the kids isolated and depressed. Their covid hysteria was just plain ridiculous.

I believe that Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. is writing a book about Dr.Anthony Fauci. I expect to be out soon. I look forward to reading it. I am sure it will be a best seller.

She says Faucci is an amazing public servant. I agree and I am amazed that Faucci the self promoting stooge could keep the job he was so sorry at.

The ignorance on COVID was spawned in DC, the CDC, the WHO, New York and in other democrat viper nests. We knew it as the bat flu.

You can drive a school bus with a license that would prohibit you from hauling potatoes. Isn't government bad enough without government effing unions?

Those who can, do! Those who can't, teach, or become news paper reporters, critics, commentators or self appointed pundits! Those who cannot do any of that, become Union Leaders.!

#7, the CDC quietly admitted a few months ago that only 6% of the deaths reported were actually deaths FROM covid and all the rest were deaths WITH covid. 6% of 600,000 = 36,000, which is about a third of the number of annual flu deaths.
We’ve been scammed by the world’s most evil people.

Please pardon second comment, but, there is still no one else in my extended family who was diagnosed with covid. Except for possibly my older son's in-laws who came back from Egypt last year in February and they had flu-like symptoms when they returned and tested positive.

And her "wife" is just as beautiful.
She was the head of the teacher's union in NYC --- when I lived there --- and she was a disgusting & vicious piece of garbage back then even before she got kicked upstairs to the national level. When the teachers went on strike, a reporter asked: "But what about the children?" and old Randi said: "They need their own union, I'm just representing the teachers."

Who cares?... the teacher's union has been called out and their contempt for children's welfare is on the tv every night... this is how unions can work against the interest of their supporters... the teacher's unions are no better than the mob run teamsters...it's always about the money for them...not the children...so sell your fiction elsewhere... WE're not buying your lies... and you have done America a real service now that parents are taking charge...again...

'My Bad' is a typical 12 year old non-apology. The head of all the teachers couldn't come up with something more sincere, and we know why.

My dad was a teacher for 35 years. Toward the end of his career he reluctantly became a member of the NEA, but it was fairly conservative at that time. He would be angry and embarrassed by the actions and radicalization of the teacher's unions of today.

The teachers union (but not most teachers) favor breakdown of the family and more mandatory dues.

Ugly is as ugly does. Who cares about the children? Let's destroy the building block of society. The Psalmist said it best, If the foundations are destroyed, what will the righteous do? That's what the commies are after....destroying the foundation of our country, families and churches...faith and family...the cornerstone of the U.S.A.

One must wonder: are there any prominent liberal/leftist women that don't look like mud fences? Rush was right in his theory of why NOW (NAGs) was established.

At least the teachers union has stopped pretending ‘it’s all about the children’. It’s all about them and their liberal brainwashing agenda. I don’t think all teachers feel this way but the union has highjacked the profession. They need to be reined in. They are mainly government employees and should be answerable to the tax payers.

Randi Weingarten has only demonstrated her deplorable COVID-19 'ignorance.' Her hissy-fit about a "Don't Fauci My Florida" T-Shirt is way, way over the top. Fauci's attempts to lock down the Florida cruise ship industry alone upset Floridians.
