Over the past year, countless instances of leaders and officials issuing coronavirus orders and then failing to abide by them have arisen.

Last November, Deborah Birx advised the country against traveling for the holidays; this advice preceded Birx’s own decision to travel across the nation to spending Thanksgiving with her family.

Also in 2020, California Governor Gavin Newsom went to a dinner with lobbyists after shutting down businesses and restaurants statewide; during this swanky event, Newsom also failed to abide by his own statewide mask mandate.

Americans are sick to death of the hypocrisy, yet it just keeps materializing. This week, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi violated her own mask mandate for the floor of the House of Representatives.

Mandatory masking in the House of Representatives

Months ago, Speaker Pelosi put in place a requirement for House members to mask up. Failure to comply with this order opens up lawmakers to punitive $500 fines. Pelosi has chosen to maintain this mandate; this comes in spite of new CDC information stating that vaccinated folks need not wear masks in most settings.
