Randi Weingarten ripped for tweet admitting 'remote education didn't work': 'Water is wet'
Fox News
Randi Weingarten, president of the American Federation of Teachers, was slammed over the weekend for a tweet that admitted "remote education didn't work."
Hanna Panreck is an associate editor at Fox News.
The American Federation for Children's Corey DeAngelis reacted to Weingarten's tweet on Saturday and said "you fought to keep schools closed." Several others called out Weingarten for "forcing" remote education during the pandemic.
Weingarten recently called out critics who blamed her for school closings in a letter to the editor published in the Wall Street Journal. She was responding to a piece written by the Journal's editorial board headlined, "Randi Weingarten Flunks the Pandemic."
