in a virtual address to members of the american federation of teachers, president randi weingarten saidhe union is preparing litigation and has a legal defense fund ready to go. she promised to fight culture warriors who attempt to limit lessons on racism and discrimination by labeling it as critical race theory. at least six states have passed laws limiting how race can be taught in the classroom and similar proposals are being considered in a dozen others. many of the bills are intended to bar the teaching of critical race theory, an academic framework that examines history through the lens of racism. it centers on the idea that racism is systemic in the nation's institutions and that they function to the benefit of white people in society." that from the ap story. randi weingarten once again spoke at the conference earlier this week and she spoke about what she talked -- which he called a disinformation campaign about critical race theory. here is what she said.

i don't know why anybody is listening to randi weingarten.aimed it was a health issue. at the same time, catholic schools and private schools with smaller resources showed you can keep children safe and bring them back. i'd rather hear from them going forward because they proved that you can get things done by looking at it, following the real guidelines. the teacher's unions made absurd demands. some places they were calling for defunding the police as one of the conditions. i don't know why anyone gives them any credibility on this. >> goes deeper. what you say, the private schools did this fine. randi weingarten went on to say to adapt to new evidence and research is crucial in this pandemic. when did the teacher's union ever a department? they set mandates and stuck to them. they had more powers that the governors in a lot of states because the governors couldn't reopen the schools. >> yeah, they haven't adapted at all. i mean, they just have been fighting the reopenings and left a lot of families in the lurch. some families found refuge

that is why randi weingarten says she couldn't commit to in classroom training.tful for people of color. >> jason: yeah, people of color and our kids. they don't put kids first. sean duffy, you and i got to serve in congress together and we also got to serve with a guy named ron desantis who is a pretty good member of congress but he is a really good governor if you ask me and he's out there doing some things, texas is doing some things with this radical idea that parents should make the decision about whether or not their kids wear masks, is that the right policy? >> next time i see leo on tv, he's going to be wrapped in saran wrap or bubble wrap, that is the next phase they are going to go to they are so crazy. but thank god for texas and florida. ron desantis with this concept, we want decisions made at the most local level possible. ron desantis stepped in as the governor and stop school boards and cities from putting mask mandates in place. what he realized was that parents are the most vocal plays possible where these decisions should be made. they should d

along with randi weingarten. there is also a report out this morning from the daily wire staying overnight the nea removes language from its website announcing their nationwide campaign to promote critical race theory after some negative press coverage. we are looking into that and hope to have more for you later today. >> bill: thank you. >> dana: the first lady is going to appear. that might not have been about critical race theory when they first put it on the schedule, but because of her statements yesterday, it certainly will be today. you start to think does the white house support this? >> bill: excellent point. he dropped the hands, and then we followed up with him and said this yesterday. >> i had listens to the testimony of the nominees by president biden. these folks are radical. they all believe in critical race theory. ask attorney general garland. i asked him if he thought the department of justice during his committee testimony was inherently racist. he wouldn't answer. >> bill: i want to be clear.

randi weingarten is talking about critical race theory as if it's fact.ct, it's a theory. brandi childress and there is also reporting today suggesting that, while the national education association dominic association adopted something called new business i am 39 calling for teams to publicize and's share critical race theory, that seems to have been removed from the website perhaps after negative reporting. we are not really sure. in any case, at some point today the first lady, jill biden, herself a longtime teacher, it will to her school with randi weingarten. should be some interesting conversation there, gillian. >> gillian: thinks are breaking it down for us, we appreciate it. that it does kids a grave injustice. let's bring in the power panel. begot gianno caldwell, fox's political analyst, as well as desiree tim, former congressional candidate out of ohio. and president and ceo of innovation ohio. thanks to both of you for joining us. desiree, i will start with you first. let's build on what critical race theory is and isn't off the top of this s

specifically about randy weingarten, we look at england who just came down they had schools open. kids not wearing masks. since the beginning of the pandemic this covid 19 kids are not severely affected by it. can get sick, but the good news is it's extremely low risk of a severe outcome for children. children should absolutely be back in school and i personally believe younger children should not be wearing masks. i do not think there is a benefit to wearing mask for children especially when teachers can be vaccinated and if they want they can wear a high-grade medical masks to give themselves more protection if they so choose. >> jeanine: exactly. and doctor, the concept of children who we know are not as vulnerable as adults are and certainly older adults when it relates to covid and even the delta variant as dr. saphier said, it's more contagious but it's certainly not as dangerous or lethal. how do they moved to the children who are the least vulnerable of all. >> we should not be putting the burden of protection on our children. the mature l.t. mortality rate, nocircumstance

in a virtual address to members of the american federation of teachers, president randi weingarten said the union is preparing litigation and has a legal defense fund ready to go. she promised to fight culture warriors who attempt to limit lessons on racism and discrimination by labeling it as critical race theory. at least six states have passed laws limiting how race can be taught in the classroom and similar proposals are being considered in a dozen others. many of the bills are intended to bar the teaching of critical race theory, an academic framework that examines history through the lens of racism. it centers on the idea that racism is systemic in the nation's institutions and that they function to the benefit of white people in society." that from the ap story. randi weingarten once again spoke at the conference earlier this week and she spoke about what she talked -- which he called a disinformation campaign about critical race theory. here is what she said.

and, quote, fight back against anti-crt rhetoric, randi weingarten today vowed to take on not criticalnts who oppose it in the classroom. >> cultural warriors are labeling any discussion of race, racism or discrimination as crt to try to make it possible. they are bullying teachers and trying to stop us from teaching students accurate history. our union will defend any member who gets in trouble for teaching honest history. we have a legal defense fund ready to go and we are preparing for litigation as we speak. >> what we have are the two largest teachers unions in the country vowing to protect the notion that racism is systemic in all facets of american history and life and no matter what parents think they are determined to bring it to the classroom and dragged his parents to court. >> she's a hateful person and apparently just doesn't like much about america and parents who are the clients of the schools and actually paying the salaries of teachers many of whom don't want to go back to teach she wants to insult them as well. hateful woman, it will bring down the democrat party, tha

"randi weingarten's ridiculous claim that selling a coosy is ridiculous.can be reopened safely a year ago. that is after his press secretary decided to point out how well his state has done saying florida's covid death rate is lower than the national average. unlike the governor of new york, we don't fudge the numbers. she ruined the education of million of kids by keeping them out of school more than a year based on conspiracy theory. >> again, she said millions of people will die. she was not joking when she said that. at the very least, it's anti-science. it's anti-mask, it's anti-funny. if you lecture people on not making jokes at a time like this, you can't do that by making up ridiculous hyperbole and accusing the governor of florida of being a mass murder or intended mass murder because he embraces policies that have proven to work pretty well. >> sandra: fair enough point. we're waiting on angela merkel, a meeting with president biden. the pandemic is one of the topics on the agenda and foreign policy news as we. you go to randi weingarten. you thi

randy weingarten slammed for hedging on whether schools will now reopen in the fall.'s happening now is that delta threw us a real curveball, and, you know, the lack of the herd immunity and enough people being vaccinated and, you know, kids not being able to get vaccines 12 and under has really thrown this curveball. so the bottom line is we're going to keep kids safe, we're going to keep our members safe, and we're going to try to open up schools, and is we're going to try to move through this battlefield. edward: here we go. i want to bring in the reason foundation director of school choice, corey deangelis. corey, i mean, leaving the possibility kids possibly won't go back to school. your reaction to that, first of all. >> i'm not super surprised because the teachers unions have shifted the reopening goalposts every step of the way. randi weingarten's not going to give up that power and leverage to hold children's education hostage even further. teachers unions profit from -- and benefit -- from this constant state of back and forth chaos because they can use that

let's discuss with the president of the american federation of teachers, randi weingarten. >> good to be with you, chris. >> let's deal with the argument and then we'll go to the remedy. the argument, you are teaching about the oppression of black people in this country but you're using it as a cudgel. mike pompeo saying you want to say this country basically stinks and blame white people and this is the left's effort to make a minority into a majority because you want them all to vote for you guys so you can stay in power. >> you know, i mean -- >> that's what you're hearing. i mean, and you're going to hear it more and more. so what's the answer? >> right. so the answer is it's completely not true. i mean, i'm a high school social studies teacher. it's hard to actually fight against something that's completely not true. because then you're assuming something in evidence that's not true. so let me go through what is true, which is that for the last i don't know, as long as i've been teaching, we teach history flay way where you take salient pieces of american history and yo

. >> trace: aft president randi weingarten calls the push against critical race theory a republican ploys and fear. >> what trump did and what the right wing has learned from trump is constantly chaos and fear and creating that kind of uncertainty. >> trace: rnc chair ronna mcdaniel responds exclusively with us next. if you have postmenopausal osteoporosis and a high risk for fracture, now might not be the best time to ask yourself... 'are my bones strong?' life is full of make or break moments. that's why it's so important to help reduce your risk of fracture with prolia®. only prolia® is proven to help strengthen and protect bones from fracture with 1 shot every 6 months. do not take prolia® if you have low blood calcium, are pregnant, are allergic to it, or take xgeva®. serious allergic reactions like low blood pressure, trouble breathing, throat tightness, face, lip, or tongue swelling, rash, itching, or hives have happened. tell your doctor about dental problems, as severe jaw bone problems may happen, or new or unusual pain in your hip, groin, or thigh, as unusual thigh bone fractu

so why can't randi weingarten commit to opening, getting teachers back in the classroom? is a con artist who has done everything in her power to keep america's public schools closed for the last 18 months. no person for america has done to hurt america's kids in public education in this country than randi winegarten. bottom line, she doesn't want to open. this is not based on sighens. she is trying to extort america's kids. jackie: yeah. this has been really difficult for some reasons. number one, we're trying to reopen, right? even with the delta variant. if all of sudden you have an option to not have in-person learning then you have got parents who are caregivers to children who can't return to work. there is a whole kind of domino effect there. number two, we've seen how far behind the children are for the year they lost, right? you have children, for example, who need to go to school to get that meal. there are so many reasons to have kids back in the classrooms, wearing masks, following the rules, no problem. >> let's put it this way. if you want to increase income i

[laughter] i would say to randi weingarten, bring it on. she's a wicked person.is any guide, the teachers union is already in the process of embezzling the hundreds of billions of dollars we gave them to not be in the classroom during the pandemic. so they gave the kids of this country a lost year already, so now they are behind in the race against china. instead of trying to play catch-up with reading, writing, and arithmetic, they will inject a little brains with racism. it is sick, i am shocked that dr. jill biden, the first lady, would align herself with this kind of garbage in any way. critical race theory is not a hill to die on if you are the first lady. that is beyond comprehension. remember when you guys were in sixth grade, okay? hormones shooting everywhere, there's drama at school, you hate your parents, you are busy, their sites. [laughter] you are going to tell me you'll sit in the classroom and tell these tender young children that they should be ashamed of their skin color and that they are actively oppressing their black students sitting next to

my next guest is randi weingarten, she's the president of the teachers union, and she's promising toi want to ask you if you're aware of any k through 12 curriculum that teaches critical race theory or implements it in the classroom in any way. >> so -- look, we also start as a history teacher who has taught history. and in the teaching of american history, you talk about race. you talk about the civil war. you talk about what happens in the aftermath of the civil war. you talk about jim crow. you talk about the 19 civil rights movement. so obviously, the issues around race and discrimination are issues of american history. but so are the good things in american history. and so are the facts that we actually fight these things as kimberle said in terms of the analysis of legal principles. this right now, crt, say term that most people would not have heard of five years ago. or even six months ago. it's something that is an analysis and a theory that's taught in law school. what we teach in high school, in elementary school, in middle school, is history. >> so, then, why is it necessa

. >> bret: try to open up schools it sounds like a maybe from randi weingarten.vocating for members. and important stockholder for the cdc obviously setting guidelines for schools in the fall. who are the advocates for the chirp and the parents which teachers unions have not been, at least in that particular question and as a cdc prepares recommendations for in person learning, especially for kids under 12, as you heard josh talk about, what's the scientific basis for masking young children? >> you know, i think that we have to -- when we have seen in schools that when the children come in to schools with disease in the community, it can spread in schools if the children are not masked. and so, when we have high rates of disease in the community, we are going to see some cases in the schools. >> bret: but it's not for the teachers in those schools? >> um, you know, a lot of these kids -- first of all, there is some disease in kids. these kids go back to homes where they have parents. they have immunocompromised parents. they have other children in the household.

joining us now is randi weingarten, president of the american federation of teachers.the facts. how do these laws -- i mean are they pulling textbooks out of the classroom? are they reaching into schools' curriculum? tell me what's actually happening for teachers on the front lines. >> so, first off, nicolle, for having us. we're in the middle of our teach convention so we're doing lots of different seminars right now for professional development for teachers this whole week. but what's happening is that the states are making new law that contradict the standards that our professional obligations tell us we have to teach and we should be teaching. so i'll give you an example. texas' new law basically says, and i'm not quoting it, but it basically says that teachers are supposed to say that slavery is a betrayal of the founding principles of our country. now, you know that that's not true. i mean there's lot of great founding principles of our country, but slavery was embedded in the constitution. so the question then becomes, what does that mean, we can't teach the civ

randi weingarten is at the forefront of both. zoom. the public school system exposed itself are being racket, unions run it. stuart: americans won't stand for it. i see a revolt coming. >> every parent should ask for is optional, masks optional. teachers have access to the vaccine. there can be modest and sensible social distancing and every kid should have the option. parents can choose if they want to mask their kids up or not. i hope parents won't take it. flood the zone of your teachers and principals and superintendent and school board saying we will homeschool, scrounge up the money to send them somewhere else, find a charter school, something else. stuart: not just the school, the advisory is get masked up even if you've been vaccinated. you go inside you've got to mask up. this is the revolt which is not just confined to the schools -- i don't think americans are prepared to step backwards. not going to do it. >> don't go to those places. the only place i will tolerate going today where i have to wear a mask is the airpor

here is randi weingarten yesterday. >> we must support each other.supporting unions and teachers supporting school staff and families supporting student. some will make it harder those disparaged educators. scapegoated our unions and blamed us for things outside our control like school closures on "fox & friends" pete hegseth mocked our safety concerns saying that we're rigging it so teachers don't have to go to work. [sigh. [as if teaching remotely isn't and wasn't incredibly hard work. i have been the target of a lot of these right wing disinformation campaigns. that comes with the territory. pete: let me say it again randi weingarten is rigging it so that teachers don't have to go back to work. she has from the beginning. there is always a sliding scale. first it was you have got to lock down. everyone has to wear a mask. including the kids. cdc 6 feet to 3 feet. no we can't do that. better ventilation. then you have got to vaccinate all the teachers. the teachers all get vaccinated still can't go back to school. remember when she called out jewis

remember, randi weingarten said it's our job to keep your kids safe.ntries. i think parents want the option to have their own health liberty for their own families, and they want the teachers to teach, to not go on vacation as we cover canned so many stories here on "fox & friends" while our school was shut down and teachers were saying let's keep it shut down and let's go on strike, many of them were off on vacation. there were many good ones who wanted to go back to work, but others loved this shutdown and loved the power that it's giving the unions. steve: you know what? it could be another year where the kids are in the classroom and then the teacher is on the laptop. it's zoom in a room. brian: or, and they don't have gym, they don't go to their lockers, the after-school activities will all be affected -- rachel: or play basketball with masksen on. brian: what does it take for the cdc to do a study and come up with your own facts? we're studying israel and see what's happening. they seem to do studies and execute. steve: sometimes they don't do st

randi weingarten tweeting you are all probably right. i shouldn't have said millions.ong to do this was the apology comes 24 hours after she slammed desantis's anti-fauci merchandise. president biden finally came out and condemned communism and socialism saying it wasn't a good idea. black lives matter has some thoughts on the cuba situation. black lives matter condemns the us federal government's inhumane treatment of cubans and urges it to immediately lift the economic embargo, the cruel and inhumane policy institute with the intention of destabilizing and undermining cuba's right to choose their own government is at the heart of cuba's current crisis. this is america's fault and cuba, a country that hasn't had a legitimate election years but black lives matter says we is america crisis. todd: dan bonngino not happy. >> they use propaganda. communists are terrorists. you don't like it, are we of sending your delicate sensibilities, i don't care. i don't give a damn. i can't stand you. you are not fighting for black lives, the conservative movement for school choice a

oppression at the intersections of our society this is american federation of teachers president randi weingartenng members teaching what she calls honest history of the united states. >> mark my words, our union will depend any member who gets in trouble for teaching honest history. we have a legal defense fund ready to go and we are preparing for litigation as we speak. teaching the truth is not radical or wrong. distorting history and threatening educators for teaching the truth is what's truly radical. paul: bring deputy editorial page editor, dan henninger and jillian. i just want our viewers to understand that we didn't take the quote out of context, that's what they supported in their national convention so what does this mean? is this a command delegates are saying should go across the country and be taught at school districts? >> there things they want to lobby to put critical theory in the classroom, they want inside bias anti- racist training, woke political ideology and training sessions and in the curriculum so i think it's a big push basically the union behind the same ideology that

. >> laura: to your point, randi weingarten is already tip in your hand on this issue of what's goinghe year road for the school year. watch. >> vaccination is the number one gold standard that we need to bring back our masks for schools. so the bottom line is, we are going to keep kids safe, we will keep our members safe and we will try to open up schools. >> laura: okay. try to open up schools and by the way gavin, here's your money. what a scam. there should be people put in jail for this. >> that was a word salad of every press release that they've had over the past year. that we need vaccination, we need masks. those of us who are vaccinated are scratching our heads now because we are also being required to wear masks and i think this is a very dicey proposition, very scary for young people, particularly women and concerns about reproductive effects of these vaccines and so i think you are going to have to pay in california, gavin newsom, if the schools do not open again in the coming year. >> laura: i should also say the prison union also gave money to help fight the recall. the

and staff, students, and visitors, regardless of vaccination status, teachers union president randi weingarteneting supports a recovered vaccine remains the most important tool, masking, until children under 12 are eligible and more eligible americans get vaccinated as the president is the first federal vaccine mandate for the government of veterans affairs requiring all va health facilities to face routine testing, it might extend to all government employees. >> will you require a federal employee to get vaccinated? >> if you are not vaccinated you are not as smart as i thought you were. >> reporter: many state and local governments following suit from california to north carolina to new york city, requiring public employees to get vaccinated as the doj office of legal counsel said mandates are legal despite not having full fda approval. they write we conclude section 564 does not prevent public or private entities from imposing vaccination requirements even when the only vaccines are those under the two hours i white house where we will have one of these today everywhere you go. laura: at le

never but what i will say is just to , connect to connect the attorney general's point to what randy weingarten was saying before, about education, forgetting all of these incidents in our schools. i went to a great law school, i took criminal law. there was not a word about race and the entire course. there is nothing about anything we have been talking about here, in a criminal law class, which , of course has to be front and , center about that. so, i do feel that peace is there and that is why you have doctrines like -- piece is there and that is why you have these doctrines like the supreme court qualified immunity doctrine, a doctrine which says unless a right is clearly established, you cannot sue the cops. i had a case in which the cops stole $30,000 of stuff from someone's apartment while they were searching at. they sue to get it back. and they said, it is not clearly established, theft by cops against the law. qualified immunity. it is insane. the supreme court has been asked to get rid of it and they won't. the george floyd act would get rid of qualified immunity. we need it. [appla

breathe, so many parents reaching out to me after this news broke moments ago, teachers union head randi weingarten says when science and evidence speak we listen, requiring everyone in school buildings to be masked so we will do it. these teachers unions have proven themselves to work against parents wishes throughout this pandemic. your reaction to the news. >> you read that tweet these government agencies can't even agree with themselves, they told us they are going to keep masks on kids indefinitely and their justification for that is there's a lot they don't know about this virus. what we do know is children are at low risk from covid, but high risk of the mental health impact of these masking restrictions. i am saddened but not surprised this government overreach is continuing and that is why let them breathe just filed a lawsuit, we are realizing legal action is our only hope to get our kids lives, smiles back. laura: parents say no, they are not doing this and finding out in a lot of these big liberal public school systems like fairfax county, virginia they are losing students and they will

randi weingarten's union has an antiracist reading list that includes picture books for 4-year-olds. here's what they want your kids learning. the cops shot him because he was black, cops stick up for each other and they don't like black men. we can't always count on cops to do what's right. the good news is republicans, even fools who support the phony infrastructure bill are united against this wild expansion of government spending and control. the last time the government's with us united against the democrat crackdown was in 2009 against obamacare. they want on to flip congress in 2010 midterms as a result. if the democrats already seem to know that day is coming which is why they are rushing right now to get it all through, because it may be your last chance in a while to fundamentally change the american experience. republicans should be holding rallies across the united states, campaigning against this nightmare and for a return to sound economic policy. republicans should be dogging so-called democratic moderates joe manchin and west virginia, kyrsten sinema in arizona and th

todd: that is randi weingarten. put on your reading the tea leaves in court hat for a moment.ttle playing out? >> depends how it is framed was i want to get out of battling for critical race theory because it is hard to define. if all we talk about is teaching better history i'm all for that. if there's a public school district not teaching about slavery or the tulsa massacre, the one hundredth anniversary of which past this your juneteenth or the debate over slavery, absolutely that should be expanded and taught but racially sensualism or teaching little kids blackness and whiteness is how they should see their friends or 30 public school district in 15 states, derived from one of the leading marxist critical race theorists about whiteness being a deal with the devil, these things, this is poisonous. it is not true. it is anti-american and not what kids should be taught. i don't know about legal action but parents need to be involved with the school board. school board set curriculums, state legislatures set curriculums. reading, writing and arithmetic, actual history absolut

now, a twisted claim by ibram kendi and randi weingarten. "the last bite" explains it.e answers lie beyond the roads we know. we recognize that energy demand is growing, and the world needs lower carbon solutions to keep up. at chevron, we're working to find new ways forward, like through our venture capital group. backing technologies like electric vehicle charging, carbon capture and even nuclear fusion. we may not know just what lies ahead, but it's only human... to search for it. >> it's really reminds me of that reaction and the response to the board of education decision. and there was widespread fear that "those desegregated schools, those black children were going to be harmful to white children." >> laura: okay, wait a second. he is the one who actually wants to take us back a generation. without that type of hyperbole about present-day america, people who disagree with his vision of it, his money just dries up. gone. they always have to take it to the next level of insult. don't forget to set your dvr every weeknight at 10:00 p.m. eastern zoo never mess us. gr

it's the unions that control the schools and randi weingarten said this.the bottom line is, we're going to keep kids safe, we're going to keep our members safe and we're going to try to open schools and we're going to tray to move through this political battlefield. >> trace: try to open up schools, leo. that's code for maybe. >> i'm bothered by this person. i used to teach in the l.a. school district. i want to be very clear. this is a designed plan to keep the schools closed and have online education. the teacher's unions do not want to go back to school. they just dropped $2 million in the pockets of gavin newsome for his recall. let's be clear. they're asking for another layer to have testing, for those already vaccinated? where are the cdc requirements for that? none. the even state here is not requiring that. are they requiring this in private schools in this is to keep the public school teachers home and a draw a few paycheck. the kids lost another year, a year of education last year. they're going to lose another year because the public school teac

here's what happened when i asked randi weingarten that question on may 10. are teachers going to required that all the students are vaccinated? when will that be? will you have everybody back in september 100% in class five day as week? >> i hope so. >> martha: will you require every student that comes in the school to be vaccinated? >> no. >> martha: you think that will hold up? >> i don't know. certainly the national education association had a formal proposal that they considered to wreckment requirement for kids to be vaccinated in order to be in person. so it's a very high levels within the teacher's union right now. the thing is we don't have good data right now on healthy kids. for kids with morbidity, the case is clear. for healthy kids, the data is not compel. >> martha: and there no studies for kids that had covid and maybe need the shot or one dose. these are questions on minds across the country and it would be great if the cdc did work on it. thanks, doctor. dr. marty makary. good to see you. >> good to see you. >> martha: so he's been out front
