It started in Chicago, where an incredible 91% of union teachers voted to go on strike and refused to do what they get paid to do, which is teach. Then the union walkouts spread to Maryland, New Jersey and California. Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot, a liberal Democrat, has attacked the Chicago teachers unions for "holding kids hostage." She is right. Why doesn't she call a state of emergency and disband the union to save the children from the union terrorists? Or tear up the contract because the unions have violated it? If she did, she would be a hero.

More and more info is coming out about the skewed covid statistics. Numbers in all categories way too high. Misinformation galore from the elite to the peons. We have been in school all school year. We are fine. We know what we need to do and are doing it. The teachers should be fired. They are losing their porn covid control and losing their minds in the process. If they are that scared find another job. Stupid is never a good look and these people are stupid. Time to open the school library. Ohhhh, I am so scared. Not!

I can’t imagine what it must be like to attend school today in some of these blue state union controlled Hell holes like Chicago. We are producing an entire lost generation of screwed up imbeciles who will barely be functional enough to cash their government check and vote democrat.

Citizens should vote to reduce tax dollars going to schools, since their number of students is down and their teachers won't work.

I would be shocked if Lori L does anything other than run her Mouth! SHE has no doubt accepted lots of donations from the Teacher's Union, so, she can't do much else! The Teachers should be fired, but who does that? They also should not be PAID if they are not showing up! Someone needs to step up in Chicago and get the Ball rolling! I don't know if this a State Wide STRIKE or just a Chicago thing, but either way, it needs to be stopped today!!

And the teachers,administrators, education professors, and anyone else associated with education.
The whole system is corrupt.
Public schools, all of them, everywhere, are child abuse. Yes, all of them, including the one you work for, pay taxes too, or wrongfully let your child attend.

We shouldn’t expect anything less from today’s teachers. They were, after all, educated in today’s universities which are full of draft dodging Vietnam era, weed smoking, 60’s hippie professors and their spawn.

If you don't show up for work, you should be fired, union or not. I seem to remember Pres. Reagan being told he couldn't fire the air traffic controllers because of their union. Look how well that worked for them.

"more than 90% of the tens of millions of campaign dollars donated by the teacher unions go to Democrats."
This has been going on since the days of Jimmy Hoffa and mob control of the Teamster's Union. What a racket, collect money by stealing a portion of millions of workers' salaries and use it for political influence to buy any office you want. I was involved in fighting the PSEA twenty five years ago and quickly learned that I had nowhere near the money and resources I needed to win that battle. It's the same today.
Many of us have been disillusioned and disgusted with school teachers for decades. Now that they have dropped their masks (pun intended) we all know why we have hated them for so long. They rank right up there with journalists because they hold the relatively same level in their class at college - dead last. A famous saying tells us that unions only help the bottom ten percent of the workforce. What more proof do we need?

For years, liberal Karens have advised me that my birth and social-group membership mean I am incapable of understanding people of other groups, e.g., "You can't understand what it's like to be black."
OK.
For the record: Randi Weingarten, president of the American Federation of Teachers, is a childless lesbian.
