According to emails, the American Federation of Teachers (AFT), a powerful union, lobbied the CDC and even suggested language for the federal agency’s school-reopening guidance that was released in February. Teachers’ unions across the United States rallied to keep schools closed during the pandemic, ignoring a body of scientific evidence that said it’s safe to teach students face-to-face. The CDC was prepared to write that schools could provide in-person instruction regardless of community spread of the virus, but, under the influence of the AFT, this caveat was added: “In the event of high community-transmission results from a new variant of SARS-CoV-2, a new update of these guidelines may be necessary.” The AFT also demanded special remote work concessions for teachers. Critics assert that the CDC willfully ignored the science and slow-walked a return to in-person learning even as mounting evidence showed schools were not a primary source of coronavirus infections as long as they followed mitigation strategies. The AFT represents 1.7 million educators and public employees, and the deep-pocket funding source for Democrats spent almost $20 million to elect Dems during the 2020 election cycle. Republican Representative Greg Murphy, a medical doctor, called on CDC director Rochelle Walensky to resign.

Moderna CEO Stéphane Bancel said, “The issue in many countries is that people don’t want vaccines.” The UN is still trying to push the unwanted jabs, claiming that 60% of the world’s population is vaccinated, but that “it’s not over anywhere until it’s over everywhere.”
The agent and five other individuals were invited by Gendron to read about his mass shooting plans and the target location about 30 minutes before Gendron reportedly killed 10 people at Tops Market on May 14. It is unknown if any of them accepted Gendron’s invitation. None called law enforcement.
