Surprised no-one is talking about this, what on earth is she thinking ?
I imagine all the Trump-supporting buffoons will have a field day.

Apologies if this should be in another thread..

Yeah #blowout was trending yesterday. I think it doesn't send the best message but in the scheme of things it seems like nothing.

I'm not sure if Cilizza is just an idiot or pretends to be one, but the new rules went into effect on Sept 1st... and this was Monday

still should have had a mask on even if it was a hair wash

Funny if they say anything, considering their president had 'corona farms' (can I call them that?) with rallies.

For what it's worth, none of the salons are indoors in my county. Personally had to deal with less than ideal haircuts for a bit now.
It's not going to kill anyone, but in state, Newsom has made a big deal of guidelines and she absolutely should know better.

Well that's dumb of her, but honestly who cares about Nance's haircut? At least she's wearing a mask 90% of the time she's on camera doing state business.

The President is sabotaging our Covid-19 response at every opportunity, and suppressing guidance from scientists and the medical community. We have bigger worries than Cillizza's latest concern.

Who is this going to dissuade from wearing a mask? Who, other than a cultist Trump supporter, is going to see that and go "see! This virus is a hoax and because Nancy Pelosi was caught one time not wearing a mask!"

Stop giving power to these idiots.

Getting your hair done < Doing fuckall for months, calling it a hoax, pushing hydroxychloroquine, suggesting injecting disinfectants, not providing monetary relief, holding rallies with no social distancing measures and masks...

Should...should I keep going or...

It doesn't matter. This will not convicence any Democrats to not vote for Democtrats. And likewise it won't make Republicans think any different of the Democratic party. Just a whole bunch of nothing. She does come across as a hypocrite for not handling this better though.

Pelosi may be in the wrong, but this was also definitely a set up. The owner says he's angry at her for violating the rules, and he's the one that submitted the tape, but he's the one operating the shop indoors against the rules as well. His claim that his own staff took her indoors on their own against the rules doesn't seem very likely.

Going for a hair wash during a pandemic is ... no words.

Why do we need to have a haircut so badly?

I know she's heavily scrutinized and a public figure, but there's got to be alternatives than going to get a haircut.

Cillizza is basically a TMZ editor and should be ignored.

It's a super minor mistake that has zero bearing on anything of significance. Everyone's been caught at some point not wearing a mask accidentally. It happens and talking about it beyond "whoops, shouldn't have done that" is effectively amplifying a bullshit right wing talking point.

It's been all over Twitter the last couple days with the typical "Lock Her Up" and "She should resign" dumbshittery you'd expect. Funny how Trumpets can do anything they want and not wear a mask but if a Democrat does anything suddenly it's the biggest scandal of the year.

I think other states have shown hair salons and barbers can safely operate in the time of COVID... so this should be a non-issue... except that apparently salons aren't allowed to be open in California for some reason?

I can't imagine going half a year without a haircut. I hope this bit of hypocrisy from Pelosi gets people the ability to get their hair cut in California. I didn't realize their hair salons and barbers have been closed since March.

It means nothing.

It's a stupid thing to do in a pandemic.

It means nothing.

But it's a stupid thing to do in a pandemic.

Etc.

We had a number of counties spike hard before Aug and rolled back out opening plans in various counties. Mine being one of them. Two weeks prior to this in mid Aug, there was a state wide push for Trump leaning Salon owners to re-open in direct opposition to the request from the governor. Again, it's not the worst thing in the world, and I'm not sure what the county she's in is currently doing, but it still not a great look when CA leadership flouts what various counties still can't do.

So shouldn't this get the salon in trouble? I'm not sure how they would be given a special rule for one person in at a time, that completely goes against the state guidelines put out by Newsom.

but yeah, I've heard people going off about this nonstop on twitter and Facebook over the last day.

I mean, this is personally upsetting because my mom is a hairstylist in California and this has been an incredibly stressful year for her, but why did they let her take her mask off in the first place? Just refuse service.

They are allowed to open under certain conditions. In most counties they're allowed to be open for indoor service at 25% capacity. SF however doesn't meet the requirements so it's one of the few places that is limiting it to outdoors right now. Most places just opened up for indoor service.
