Betsy DeVos rips Randi Weingarten for 'trying to gaslight' Americans on school closures
Former Trump education secretary slams union leader's remarks on negative impact of school closures
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Former Education Secretary Betsy DeVos accused American Federation for Teachers President Randi Weingarten of gaslighting Americans on pandemic schools closures, Thursday, telling "America’s Newsroom" that the union leader is trying to "rewrite history" on the delayed reopening of schools.
BETSY DEVOS: She is just trying to gaslight the American people, but we’re wiser than that. As early as late August, September 2020, way over a year and a half ago, she took the time to say we’re ready — teachers were ready to go back to schools if it was safe but it was Trump and DeVos who with their political B.S. made them think otherwise. So, she's trying to rewrite history, and it is absolutely ridiculous and wrong. And it again is covering the failings of a system that has failed thousands and millions and millions of kids.
