The head of the American Federation of Teachers (AFT) Randi Weingarten makes over half a million dollars per year in her job – more than nine times the average teachers salary in the U.S.

In 2019, Weingarten received a salary of $489,844 along with $74,392 in other compensation, bringing her total haul for the year to $564,236, according to the AFT's Internal Revenue Service Form 990 for that year, the most recent year available. 

The median salary for public high school teachers was $62,870, as of May 2020, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). For preschool, elementary, middle, secondary, and special education teachers, the median salary was $58,550, according to the BLS. 

The AFT did not respond to Fox News' request for comment on whether Weingarten's high salary is justified by her work.

There's a New Conservative Alternative to Twitter: GETTR
Zach Bauder / Townhall Tipsheet

There's a new conservative alternative to Twitter that launched last week called "GETTR," and it aims to bring a free and open exchange of ideas back to users' social media experience.

GETTR's slogan is "The Marketplace of Ideas," as it works to position itself on the side of free speech in an era when big tech companies are under fire from many — including President Donald Trump — for censoring conservatives.

In an exceedingly crowded field where more conservative alternatives to social media sites such as Rumble and Parler have gained popularity, GETTR charted in App Stores before its official launch and reached the number one spot on the Google Play Store in its first week. 

Its popularity has not come without drawbacks, though, as the media platform recently suffered a hack that resulted in the theft of 85,000 users' personal information.
