This of course is a lie and during an appearance on CNN Thursday night, she was confronted about her lack of remorse or responsibility.
.@ScottJenningsKY to @rweingarten: "I am stunned at what you have said this week...I think you'll find that most parents believe you are the tip of the sphere of school closures...I hear no remorse whatsoever about the generational damage that's been done..." pic.twitter.com/gVCDgpP3dN

Weingarten, who is shameless, has a lengthy tweet trail to prove she's lying. He actions and collusion with the Centers for Disease Control to keep schools closed has set America's children back at least a decade.
