CNN reports:
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi got her hair styled Monday inside a San Francisco hair salon, her office said in a statement Tuesday, an apparent violation of the city’s Covid-19 safety regulations that enraged the salon’s owner. The acknowledgment came after Fox News reported that the owner of the salon, Erica Kious, was angry that Pelosi had broken the rules requiring such hair treatments to be done outdoors because of the pandemic. Fox also reported it had obtained security footage showing the speaker inside eSalon not wearing a mask.
Pelosi’s staff insisted Pelosi wore a mask while getting her hair done except for a brief period when she got her hair washed. The security footage shows Pelosi not wearing a mask as she walks briefly between two small rooms in the salon, her hair wet as if just washed. “The speaker always wears a mask and complies with local Covid requirements,” Pelosi’s Deputy Chief of Staff Drew Hammill said in the statement.
Hammill says Pelosi was misinformed about new San Francisco lockdown rules that had gone into effect that day, believing that hair salons were allowed to have one customer inside at a time. As you can see in a video below, her stylist was wearing a mask. Trump and his cultists are going nuts on Twitter.
Crazy Nancy Pelosi is being decimated for having a beauty parlor opened, when all others are closed, and for not wearing a Mask – despite constantly lecturing everyone else. We will almost certainly take back the House, and send Nancy packing!

The Beauty Parlor owner must really dislike Crazy Nancy Pelosi. Turning her in, on tape, is a really big deal. She probably treats him like she treats everyone else…And she strongly supported a Kennedy who just lost in, of all places, Massachusetts!

“This is typical Washington, D.C. They get on national TV, they preach to the American people that it should be one way—and yet, in private, when the cameras are not rolling … it shows a very different story.” – @MarkMeadows on Nancy Pelosi’s hypocrisy pic.twitter.com/Dlyu1E0fwT

Explain to me how Nancy Pelosi closed beauty parlors in California.
She’s a congressperson. A Representative. Not the governor, not the mayor, not president.
So, show me the chain of command giving her authority over small business. Go ahead. Show it to me. Show your work.

It’s not just Nancy Pelosi who thinks her hair is more essential than your livelihood.
Democrats are liars who want to rule over every aspect of your life. But their rules will never apply to them.
