Looking at the hugely successful pro-Israel rally in D.C., AFT’s Randi Weingarten beclowns herself -

[Randi Weingarten is] a very powerful woman who has been using her toxic beliefs to control public education for many years and is a strong and profitable ally of the Democrat party.

Andrea Widburg- American Thinker  "Yesterday, almost 300,000 people were in Washington, D.C., to support Israel in its fight against the unrelieved evil that is Hamas. It was such an overwhelming turnout that the Washington Post had no option but to try to bury the story in its print edition lest it give people ideas. But teachers’ union boss Randi Weingarten did notice the rally, and she came out with one of the most strikingly ignorant pronouncements imaginable from a Jewish woman who claims to be “deeply religious.”

"The rally was big. Although some potential attendees did not make it to D.C. because antisemitic bus drivers staged a sick-out to prevent them from traveling there, almost 300,000 people did show up to exercise their First Amendment rights. Unlike the pro-Hamas marches that were filled with covert and overt calls for a new Jewish genocide, the pro-Israel rally was distinguished by civility:

. . ."If you know anything at all about Judaism—and, theoretically, someone Jewish would—there are a lot of giveaways that the men in the video above are Orthodox Jews. It’s not just the kippahs or yarmulkes (i.e., skullcaps) they’re wearing. Even less religious Jewish men, along with feminists and lesbians, wear those." . . .

"All of this gets us to Randi Weingarten, a childless lesbian who has a huge impact on your
children. Since 2008, she has headed the American Federation of Teachers, one of America’s most powerful teachers’ unions and an economic mainstay of the Democrat party. She’s also, in her own words, “deeply religious.” To that end, she’s married to a female rabbi and is “a member of Congregation Beth Simchat Torah, a New York synagogue that focuses on gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender Jews,” where her wife is the “spiritual leader.” . . .

"Incidentally, what is essentially a mockery of Judaism isn’t confined to LGBTQ+ Jews. This is true for all leftist Jews. They are not the People of the Book unless the Book is Marx’s Das Kapital.

"Now that you understand Weingarten’s specific form of “deeply religious” Judaism, you can appreciate the ignorance and stupidity behind her much-derided tweet:"
