Test scores in the U.S. continue to decline all while Dems and the media (as usual, pardon the redundancy) fail to point the finger of blame in the proper direction:
ACT test scores drop to lowest in 30 years in pandemic slide https://t.co/xaQiV7Kwev pic.twitter.com/0AwgSmEoUH

“Pandemic slide.” Uh-huh… and who was mostly behind pandemic shutdowns, closures and other mandates that set back much of an entire generation?
From the AP:
Scores on the ACT college admissions test by this year’s high school graduates hit their lowest point in more than 30 years — the latest evidence of the enormity of learning disruption during the pandemic.
The class of 2022′s average ACT composite score was 19.8 out of 36, marking the first time since 1991 that the average score was below 20. What’s more, an increasing number of high school students failed to meet any of the subject-area benchmarks set by the ACT — showing a decline in preparedness for college-level coursework.
The test scores, made public in a report Wednesday, show 42% of ACT-tested graduates in the class of 2022 met none of the subject benchmarks in English, reading, science and math, which are indicators of how well students are expected to perform in corresponding college courses.
With that in mind the head of the American Federation of Teachers was spotted putting some “priorities” on full display:

We've also helped get laptops for Ukrainian schools and teachers so they can help their students. https://t.co/GHmxX5fexF

The irony of Weingarten going to another country to teach them how to handle education during a crisis is laughable at best.
Well it’s a good thing @rweingarten is in Ukraine or she may have to answer for this. https://t.co/qaifzexq0H

If anything she’ll probably blame Trump.
