This guy is an embarrassment...from the article:

President Biden on Wednesday said he's asking Education Secretary Miguel Cardona to go after states with bans on mask mandates in schools, up to and including taking "legal action" against them, even as a crisis rages on in Afghanistan. 

The president's remarks on masks in schools Wednesday came as the military struggles to evacuate American citizens and allies from the Kabul airport after the Taliban swept into control of Afghanistan in mere days. State Department communications are telling Americans they "should consider" going to the airport for evacuation but that "the United States government cannot ensure safe passage" through the rest of the Taliban-controlled city. 

"Today, I am directing the Secretary of Education – an educator himself – to take additional steps to protect our children," Biden said in remarks at the White House, after which he did not take questions on Afghanistan. "This includes using all of his oversight authorities and legal actions, if appropriate, against governors who are trying to block and intimidate local school officials and educators."

"As I’ve said before, if you aren’t going to fight COVID-19, at least get out of the way of everyone else who is trying," Biden added. "We're not going to sit by as governors try to block and intimidate educators protecting our children."

Since when does the Education Dept really have any power to dictate to local school districts anything??!!  Jimma carter created this in the late 70's as a payoff to school unions for their support!  This, along with the Energy Dept, also created by Jimma, should have been done away with a long time ago!  Both colossal waste of taxpayer money!

Why the mask talk and not much on the fiasco?  Because the mask part is easy.  The total fiasco in Afghanistan is to hard for the "not ready for prime time" players!  We have seen the results of their incompetency!!

Have yall seen the video going around of the leftist teacher losing it on her kids?  I think it was in Utah she got fired yesterday.  

 

The leftist infestation in our systems of education is sickening.   Can't wait for the part where we're dragging them out by the hair of their heads.
