The White House has a new information campaign aimed at changing the narrative on school closures.
Students have fallen behind and teachers are in short supply following a pandemic that was politicized and say Democrat bureaucrats and politicians close schools around the country and mask children indefinitely.
The White House thinks they have a communications problem. So now they are blaming Republicans for the educational disaster we have on our hands, The Daily Wire reports.
There is only one problem… There is video.
Video of Democrats defending the closure of schools.
The Wire report stated:
When a reporter questioned Jean-Pierre about dismal test results on the National Assessment of Educational Progress — which showed average scores for nine-year-olds declining five points in reading and seven points in mathematics — she lauded President Joe Biden for purportedly spearheading a return to in-person instruction.
“Not too long ago when this President walked into this administration: how mismanaged the pandemic — the response to the pandemic was; how 47 percent of schools were — in less than six months, our schools went from 40 per- — 46 percent to — open — to nearly all of them being open to full time,” she said.
“That was the work of this President. And that was the work of Democrats, in spite of Republicans not voting for the American Rescue Plan,” she explained, referring to $130 billion in funding for schools greenlit by the $1.9 trillion legislation. “Every Republican in Congress voted against that money. That is the reality. We had to do this on our own.”
But Democrats are lying, and there is video to prove it.

Our kids suffered at the hands of Democrats and now they want you to believe it was them who were fighting for them all along.

You have heard the term micro aggression? The democrats and rinos say a prayer at night. Lord please keep the rube’s micro attention span in place,if not, we are truly screwed, Amen.
Its called the blame game! Democrats are always involved deeply in this! They blame anyone or anything just because they can. I guess they’ve never heard of taking responsibility for what you do or say. Its about time they did. This whole mess is their fault. They are a comp!eye failure at being human beings as well as never taking responsibility for what they say or do. Worthless load of nincompoops!
