Union leader Weingarten buries 'strange' JD Vance for 'sad and gross' teacher smears

On Sunday afternoon, American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten fired back at Republican vice presidential nominee J.D. Vance for his personal attacks on her and all teachers with bizarre accusations they are trying to "brainwash" children.

As part of the Ohio Republican's jihad against childless women, whether they own cats or not, Vance singled out childless teachers during his run for his Senate seat representing Ohio, accusing them of "trying to brainwash the minds of our children." and then he said of Weingarten, "If she wants to brainwash and destroy the mind of children, she should have some of her own and leave ours the hell alone."

Appearing on MSNBC with host Jen Psaki, Weingarten had a few things to say about her GOP accuser.

"I've been thinking about it all week because it is strange when he said it then and the fact that he doubled down on it this week is even stranger," she told the host. "He is running for vice president of the United States of America and we have 50 million kids in the United States and they are our future."

"Whether you go to public school or parochial school or private school, this is the moment that parents and teachers and kids are bonding together. It is the moment of engagement, it is the moment of the teachers trying to create welcoming environments — you know this with your own kids," she told host Psaki before suggesting, "He has to really be disconnected from life."

She later added, "Let me just say this: there is a lot of people who don't have kids that wanted kids and when they say that, it is pretty painful. That is a whole other conversation that you and I could have for hours. But the kids — this is what I think is not just weird but kind of really sad and gross about what he is doing."
