Served by Masked Staff, Pelosi & Unmasked DCCC Donors Enjoy Garden Party in Napa

“Guidelines for thee, however not for me,” stays the elitist motto a yr and a half into the COVID-19 pandemic.

We’re uninterested in the double requirements, we’re uninterested in listening to the identical politicians who reside life as normal whereas telling us to proceed to change our life to swimsuit their guidelines. And we’re particularly uninterested in the draconian mandate tradition coming to life earlier than our eyes.

Democratic Home Speaker Nancy Pelosi isn’t any stranger to COVID hypocrisy, and she or he’s nonetheless going sturdy with it — even amid the rampant unfold of the fearsome, extra extremely contagious delta variant.

Simply check out this video shared in a tweet from New York Occasions reporter Kenneth Vogel on Sunday, which reveals Pelosi — a girl who requires masks for members of Congress and guests to the Home facet of the Capitol — talking to the fully maskless group current on the Democratic Congressional Marketing campaign Committee retreat in Napa Valley, California.

The footage pans over the gang, displaying lengthy, embellished tables surrounded by DCCC members packed almost shoulder-to-shoulder as masked wait workers scurry about.

To nobody’s shock, Pelosi is maskless too.

Journalist and political commentator Glenn Greenwald shared Vogel’s tweet shortly after, attaching the caption: “All of the servants totally masked. The just about-entirely previous, white, wealthy crowd of DCCC donors free to go maskless as they’re served.”

The commentary isn’t his alone, nor ought to or not it’s.

At this level, we must always all be outraged to see the identical individuals who demand that we keep at dwelling, current vaccination cards for companies or entry into companies, put on masks and stay socially distanced from these round us are doing little of those — if any.

Positive, we are able to suspect — contemplating the Dems’ adamant vaccine push — that almost everybody current on the DCCC occasion had been vaccinated.

Nevertheless, in too many locations, there aren’t any exceptions for the on a regular basis People who’ve finished the identical.

Now, in some Democratic-run jurisdictions, masks are being enforced on the unvaccinated and the vaccinated — and it’s making folks ask … what are these vaccines truly stopping?

Nonetheless, that can’t distract from the DCCC’s elitist show that’s been the reason for a lot spite and dissent amongst on a regular basis folks.

We don’t like being advised what to do — how (or how far) to face round others, how we are able to’t be trusted to make use of our personal discretion relating to our private well being, tips on how to breathe, even.

However our disdain for management comes from being managed — not from rating among the many controllers.

Did Pelosi and the remainder of the DCCC elitists ever give pause to the concept that the occasion’s servants might contract COVID from them for remaining maskless (I’m not saying they’d; I’m merely posing the argument they’ve tried to make and am making use of it to this query).

The leftist elite’s considerations relating to COVID appear to extend far beyond themselves in probably the most handy manner.

Maybe, as I discussed, each visitor in attendance had already been totally vaccinated they usually understand how liberating it’s to parade round with out the identical masks they inform everybody else to put on.

Within the minds of too many Democrats, on a regular basis People don’t deserve that luxurious.

That a lot is clear from the way in which we’re admonished for making our personal private decisions, for studying scientifically primarily based articles that pose claims which might be totally different from the Centers for Disease Control’s normal, or for telling our employers “no thanks” when requested if we wish to obtain the controversial jabs.

It’s time to name out the governmental elitists for his or her hypocrisy, for selling the identical insurance policies they be happy to discard every time they need.

Within the elite thoughts, guidelines are for servants.
