Remember when Joe Biden made a big deal of getting our schools open while he was campaigning? How he said things like, ‘Sorry folks, I’m going to have to ask you to open your doors’?
Good times.
Well, he lied.
Yeah yeah, we knew he was then but now it’s just blatant and pathetic because he’s completely caved to the teacher’s unions and even his CDC is playing politics with our children’s education to appease them.
CDC confessed to letting teachers union overrule science. Outrageous corruption. https://t.co/NhS6WzPUqI

They reviewed the science and then tossed it out the window because their directive has never been about schools, it’s been about appeasing teacher’s unions who helped elect Joe. Your kids are out of school because of politics, not a virus.
There is more:
?Breaking? @CDCDirector admits that lobbying groups changed recs in the recent CDC School Guidelines
From a Fri. press conf: CDC based its recs on what the science says AND input from teachers groups w "direct changes in the guidance made as a result." https://t.co/kLiqYnIPsT pic.twitter.com/pZWcYk6yJt

Direct changes in the guidance made as a result.
In other words, the unions said ‘JUMP!’ and Biden’s CDC said, ‘HOW HIGH?!’
Who else helped draft the recommendations? Donna Harris-Aikens, who came to DOE last month after 14 years as a Senior Policy Director at the NEA.
In addition, CDC sought input from other "stakeholders," i.e., lobbying groups, w no mention of meeting w any openschools parents. pic.twitter.com/NoKjDFm7jg

Where were the invites for the parents? The students?
What a ridiculous and disgusting joke.
One last unbelievable note from this press conf: @CDCDirector said that even after everyone is vaccinated, CDC still might not recommend school open normally ? According to her, even then, we might need "some combination of mitigation strategies."
So full-time school… never? pic.twitter.com/BC69TRsJix

This is all about helping unions maintain power and control.
Nothing more.
Remember when people accused Donald Trump of interfering with scientific government agencies and it was catastrophic? I remember. https://t.co/N4rerTMIvo

They always accuse others of the very things they are guilty of doing.
Always.
CDC needs to grow a set and stick with the science.
