As Fox News moves leftward, CNN, the sick man of cable news, just aired a segment that would hearten any alienated FNC viewers that happened to catch it. Is this a portent of things to come?
The New York Post reports on the confrontation that must have shocked Randi Weingarten, the head of the AFT who this past week falsely claimed to a congressional committee that she had fought every day to reopen schools, when, in fact, she and her union were the major force keeping them closed. A paid CNN commentator, Scott Jennngs, delivered the truth bomb.

The expression on her face said it all: "This is CNN. I am a Dem. You can't ask me hard questions."

Remorse does not exist in them who believe 'the ends justify the means'.

Teachers were paid in many states to stay at home and not teach, making them no better than fast food workers. How can leftists lie so blatantly about something that occurred very recently? It was so recent that even Joe Biden might remember it.

She’s a lesbian and leftwing union goon - what would you expect?

No remorse with her or any of the COVID lockdown dictators as the "pandemic" served to work towards their own benefit. Did you see her ranting in true Hitler fashion in front of the Supreme Court recently ? I hope there is more of this type interview interrogation to come but you can never shame these types that are always ranting about all they care about THE CHILDREN! It's becoming a broken record while they sit in their elitist towers and ignore the fact that kids can't learn while being hammered with CRT and sexually explicit materials that only point towards a culture trying to twist them into everlasting fearful confusion! Please just bring back the ABC's as Dick and Jane readers taught kindness & fun and that is what childhood should be about & not dealing with the attitudes of highly conflicted adults!

She is nothing more than a union thug looking to enhance her own wealth. She is a selfish, self-centered cold fish. A whole generation of damaged children is meaningless to her.

What can you say. Winegarden is a commie. This exchange bounced right off of her/it. Rather interesting that this exchange took place on the communist news network.

Also amazing that she made comments about keeping schools closed which are on video. And denies saying what she stayed.
She is not the only one. Dems must think people are stupid.

And back when getting the first shot meant a lot to the elderly, teachers got pushed to the head of the line.

It's striking how similar Weingarten seems to Fauci. They could be two heads of the same dragon.

It’s heartening and a relief to see someone stand up to a national ‘bully’ such as Weingarten. More often than not - for some strange and irrational reason - people like her (I am the utmost authority and do not question me) are protected to the nth degree by most of the media and others who want the general public to ‘shut up and sit down’! Thank you, Mr. Jennings!

While there are numerous candidates for the worst excuse for a human being on the planet, Whinefartin is close to if not at the very top of my list. A despicable waste of carbon and water.

Unions are businesses. The difference is that in many States their "customers" have no choice but to buy their service/product. They have a captive market and are no more "democratic" than a corporation. The major difference I have witnessed is the use of "muscle".
Anecdotally - I worked at a company with union representation. Although I was salaried I never allowed my political views known lest I found my vehicle with flat tires and keyed. I never put stickers on my vehicles but the union guys would put political bumper stickers on cars.

Re: Reply #9 Yes, Democrat bigshots do believe the rest of us are stupid. A lot of us - those who vote for Democrat candidates - are extremely stupid. Apparently ‘facts’ and ‘the truth’ are not what they’re interested in - but politics and ‘their Party’ must win at all cost, regardless of the harm they cause to American citizens, our rights, our freedoms and even our protection on an international basis.

The longtime head of the teachers union Albert Schanker said to a reporter once “when students start paying union dues I will care about them.”
When they say it’s for the children remember that!

Granted, Jennings has worked for a Republican President, but I am stunned that CNN aired this. I guess, being in last place ratings-wise might force a business - and CNN is still interested in profit-making - into at least partially allowing non-lib viewpoints to be broadcast.

There's a friend of mine who teaches in a teacher education program. She was against school closings from the beginning and said it would have a terrible impact on children's learning. She was right. She said it was going to be especially hard for children who are in special education or who are in homes where education is not valued. She was right. Randi Weingarten is a horrible human being who doesn't care at all about children - power is all she loves.

I'm of the opinion...that Weingarten forcing the schools to close was a God sent...she made parents look at the curriculum being taught....and they finally saw the damage being done to their kids in school...it started the parents speaking out at school board meetings...and scrutinizing what was being taught to their kids....so Weingarten did US a favor...because now Americans want school choice and having the money allocated to each family to chose for their children what school they will attend...and that's a good deal....

She is a thug - yes, modern day and woke, but a pure thug nonetheless. Any whoever this guy is, bravo!

Fox has finally allowed CNN to compete. A few late night phone calls perhaps ?

Good liars lie with impunity and without compunction. “The ENDS justify the MEANS.”
AND Politicians do this best. And so we have The Sniffer.

Lock her and Fauxie in the same Prison cell and provide barely enough food and water for one of them!

To have remorse, one must have a conscience.
Kudos to the man who articulated quite well and with much reserve, the anger and frustration of parents.

Nothing has changed at CNN.
Not one thing.
