Gaslight Story of the Year: Biden Admin Tries to Revise History by Blaming School Closures on Trump’s ‘Mismanaged’ Pandemic Response

The Biden administration played a game of revisionist history on Thursday, attempting to blame the Trump administration for extended school closures during the COVID-19 pandemic.
New test results from the National Assessment of Educational Progress found that math and reading performance among 9-year-old students has plummeted because of school closures during the pandemic, erasing 20 years of progress.
Press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was asked about the NAEP’s results on Thursday, and she responded by blaming the shocking education decline on a “mismanaged” pandemic response by the Trump administration.
Completely whitewashing what actually happened, Jean-Pierre said President Joe Biden opened schools despite Republican opposition to his agenda.
