Stuart Varney: Pandemic school closures resulted in an educational disaster

FOX Business' Stuart Varney reacts to reports that the CDC's Dr. Rochelle Walensky met with far-left groups for guidance on school reopenings.

Money, great gobs of it, must be chucked around. Power and control were what mattered, not the education of children.

Now, Fox News Digital, reveals just how entrenched the power of the left really was.
In drawing up their plans, the CDC's Dr. Rochelle Walensky said she had conferred with parents. Yes, she did, once.

And the ‘parents’ were primarily left-wing activists. ‘Stand with Trans’ was in the meeting. This group fights to let students use ‘the bathroom of their gender’ or participate in ‘the sport of their gender.’ ‘Moms Rising’ was there – they fight for ‘workplace justice,’ and got $1 million from George Soros.

And look what they did. In Democrat states, the schools stayed closed longer, kept kids in masks, imposed quarantine that disrupted everyone's life. And educational standards fell through the floor, especially for minority children.

I am not critical of teachers, I am critical of their union. They demanded money, control and power – and they got it, with an assist from the CDC, the President and the First Lady. The result was an educational disaster.
