    People like Rick make me think there's a target out there for a Nigerian Unvaccinated Prince email scam.

    So this Politico "story" saying Randi didn't want to keep schools closed should end all debate about using Politifact as a fact checking site going forward. When you are this stupid like Politico is you are disqualified from anyone taking you seriously anymore. Reminds me of some on here...

    I mean this is next level spin. Anyone here want to defend this garbage? Because if you do that tells me a lot about you.

    PolitiFact - Here's what AFT’s Randi Weingarten said about reopening schools during COVID-19

    • Weingarten criticized Trump administration officials’ calls to reopen schools fully without a plan or safety measures in 2020, but it’s misleading to suggest that she didn’t want to pursue reopening schools at all.

    Analyses like this are unwelcome in the pro-poison camp.

    You can always education yourself by clicking on the link below:
    False claim: London Olympic Games ceremony symbolically predicted the COVID-19 pandemic
    The opening show was designed by Oscar-winning film director Danny Boyle as an ode to British history and culture. In the second of three “acts”, Boyle paid homage to the NHS, a much-loved national institution to many Britons. (here). The sequence, which can be seen in this video of the ceremony at 45 minutes in, features hundreds of nurses dancing and roller-skating around hospital beds (here). Later on, representations of famous villains from English literature are seen rising from the beds. The grim reaper-like figure that the post claims symbolises “death” is actually Lord Voldemort – the main antagonist in J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter book series.

    D’uh! It wasn’t a prediction. It was rather a sobering, albeit unwitting depiction of the killing apparatus which is public health. You need to brush up on your irony.

    Despite the many flaws of the British NHS, which I assume that was to what you were referring when you reference public health Brits still have a higher life expectancy than Americans as well as a lower infant mortality rate. And in case you missed it the character presumably representing Death/the Grim Reaper was actually Lord Voldemort, a character from the Harry Potter series.

    Maybe you can help get me up to speed on what I should be outraged about. Is it that the head of a teachers union wanted to ensure safety measures were in place instead of just blindly reopening schools?
