democrat leaders, led by Nancy Pelosi, are once again pushing mask mandates on the country because of the Delta variant. Blue states are falling into line. But here is concrete proof that it is for nothing, a frivolity. Three separate events show that democrats do not take this seriously and if they do not, neither should anyone else.
1. Pelosi ignores her own mandate

2. One of America’s worst mayors in history delayed the mask mandate so she could take center stage in Chicago’s Lollapalooza.
While numerous other elected Democrats across the country have announced new COVID-19 restrictions, Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot has delayed reimposing a mask mandate on her city, just as Lollapalooza begins.
The massive music festival is expected to draw more than 100,000 attendees over the course of the weekend, and the requirements for attendees have changed since the festival began on Thursday. Starting Saturday, participants are required to wear masks indoors, regardless of whether they have been vaccinated. For the first two days of the festival, this was not the case.
A surge of COVID-19 cases resulted in Gov. J.B. Pritzker (D-IL) reimposing a mask mandate for everyone working in or entering state facilities, regardless of whether they have been vaccinated or not. Lightfoot, however, has delayed implementing a broader mandate for the city while Lollapalooza takes place.
3. DC Mayor Muriel Bowser also blew off her own mandate
Fewer than 24 hours after Washington, D.C., Mayor Muriel Bowser celebrated her 49th birthday with a DJ and comedian Dave Chappelle, she officiated a wedding at The Line DC, a four-star hotel in the Adams Morgan neighborhood of the city.
Despite the mayor’s order, the wedding reception featured hundreds of unmasked guests served by dozens of wait staff, including a conspicuously unmasked Bowser.
Bowser, who was not sitting at the table designated for her during wedding toasts, did not wear a mask despite not actively eating or drinking. When approached by the Washington Examiner to explain why she was maskless at an event now legally obligated to enforce mask compliance, security blockaded the free press.
At least 3 out of 5 adults in the district and 3 in 4 seniors have been vaccinated. Even with the delta variant of the coronavirus, vaccination has proven eminently effective, even more so than masks. Of the nearly 400,000 district residents fully vaccinated against the pandemic, just four (all of whom were elderly or had preexisting conditions) died.
4. And of course, the guy who insists that everything be about himself is throwing himself a party
Former President Barack Obama has come under fire for his plans to host nearly 500 people at his Martha’s Vineyard mansion for his 60th birthday, despite a nationwide rise in COVID cases. The former president is set to turn 60 on August 4, and is said to be planning a large soiree at his 7,000-square-foot mansion in the Edgarton section of Martha’s Vineyard next weekend.
An official familiar with the plans told Axios that there are now 475 confirmed guests for the party – including Oprah Winfrey, George Clooney and Steven Spielberg – with more than 200 staff members. All guests will have to be COVID tested and vaccinated and the party will be held outdoors on the Obama’s $12 billion 30-acre waterfront property.
But Francis Collins, director of the National Institutes of Health, said Sunday on CNN that big parties should be avoided. ‘If you’re talking about a small party like I might have at my house for six or eight people who are all fully vaccinated, I do not believe, at this point, we need to put masks on to be next to each other,’ he said.
‘But if there were 100 people, and, of course, how are you really going to be sure about people’s vaccination status?’
It’s hard to take CDC guidance (which is already head spinning) seriously when democrat leaders cannot and will not. Diseases don’t recognize “blue privilege.”
And while we’re at it, I have a question.
Dr. Fauci on pushback against mask requirements, individual rights: “The fact is, if you get infected, even if you are without symptoms, you very well may infect another person who may be vulnerable,.. So in essence, you are encroaching on their individual rights.” pic.twitter.com/h6qZRuZcVn

Does this not also apply to the common cold or flu, which is actually more lethal?
Inquiring minds want to know.
See author page
“All guests will have to be COVID tested and vaccinated and the party will be held outdoors on the Obama’s $12 billion 30-acre waterfront property.”
I think it’s $12 million, but point made. At some point, hasn’t he made enough money?
I wonder how many illegal immigrants the US military will deliver to Obama’s estate? Surely he has room for a couple hundred infected “guests”.
Oblamo is a lifelong politician and Mike never made much money. How does he afford a 12 million dollar vacation home?
Wow!
Fauci’s latest step in his dance of the masks is retty outrageous.
By claiming infected people being out & about are “encroaching on the individual rights” of others was the farthest thing from his mind back when he was in charge during the AIDS/HIV crisis.
Back then even tracing past partners “encroached on the individual rights” of those INFECTED!
The disease spread massively thru needle-sharing, unprotected sex and blood transfusions.
But Fauci was OK with all that spread as long as he and his buddies in the gay communities were protected from shame. (He didn’t “marry” a woman until 1985! But, before that, he did “hand’s on” research in gay bath houses in SF for YEARS.)
Rules are not for Fauci.
He stayed unmasked at a ball game no one was even allowed to attend during the supposed worst time of the China virus’ reign.
Rules and laws are just for us chumps.
50 thousand infected border busters released into the USA, they are flown on airlines without proper identification. Many to Florida, looks like biological warfare on the American public.
More than that. They now estimate 25% of the over 1,000,000 idiot Biden has let in the country are infected. Where are they? No one knows.
I suppose that’s another good reason to refuse COVID vaccinations and protest mask requirements.
You are correct. Biden is now responsible for thousands of preventable deaths, and encroaching on legal and law-abiding Americans’ Constitutional Rights is not an option.
Fauci is wrong. Not wearing a mask (which doesn’t have the scientific support to justify its use) is not, and cannot be an infringement of others’ individual rights.
That’s at least three logical fallacies that on-air personality is committing, at least.
Why comply with anything? This hateful, racist, anti-American regime will simply make conditions worse through their stupidity or malevolent agenda. Why is someone else’s safety MY responsibility when idiot Biden is importing infected illegal immigrants? Explain that.
Why do you think “Biden” the puppet theater actor is responsible?
These people are being sent here by operatives in the area. The CIA would refer to them as “Assets”.
The CIA is controlled by Israel, btw.
Once again, you can downvote it, but you DARE not speak against it, for you have nothing to say.
What’s to explain? Stupid people will refuse vaccinations and protest mask requirements as the Delta variant fills up hospitals, destroys businesses, and runs up a body count that’s ALREADY over 613 thousand by by tens-of-thousands more. THEN they’ll deny all responsibility for their own words and behavior, and bitch, whine, and moan about the number of deaths either being imaginary or all somebody else’s fault.
Everyone has seen the movie before. It doesn’t change when you watch it a second time.
Stupid people will dangerously declare the vaccines harmful simply to score some cheap political points. Stupid people will denounce the vaccines as dangerous simply because of the administration they were developed under. Stupid people will vote for THOSE stupid people.
Speaking of stupid, what IS the body count the variant is running up? All we see is the failure of this idiot to “shut down the virus” as he promised and declared was so easily done.
Now this moronic regime wrecks any value in taking even the tiny risk of being vaccinated. You STILL have to wear a mask (or masks). So, why not just wear a mask (they are SOOOOOOO effective, right?) and wait for the vaccine to get full approval before receiving it?
By the way, bureaucracy is holding up full FDA approval. Yet another in the long, long list of failures of this failed regime.
Anything less than a N-95 mask is useless, and the jabs aren’t even real vaccines. The mRNA that they contain programs your body to produce toxic Covid19 protein spikes, which also contain a dangerous prion-like domain.
The serious dangers being posed by these experimental jabs should be apparent to anyone in the biomedical profession, which is probably why less than half of those so employed have chosen to take them!
A COVID virus doesn’t fly around on tiny little wings. It’s carried by airborne moisture particles, many of which stick to the fibers of a simple surgical mask as an inhaled or exhaled air passes through them. The result of that simple filtering process is far from useless. An N95 mask is better at filtering than a surgical mask, which is in turn better than a cloth mask. A cloth mask is better than nothing.
Why do you think hospitals require visitors to wear surgical masks if they’re visiting an immune-compromised patient? They were doing that long before anyone heard of COVID. It was never political before.
It’s not enough of and effect, or threat, to justify it’s mandatory use.
You’re also ignoring the greater psychological impact, mostly because of your partisan blindness.
Just remember that Donald Trump closed the country when Dems said not to. Trump required masks first, and Trump got a vaccine far ahead of Democrat expectations.
2020 is gone. The masks are NOT needed, and not effective against the spread of Covid 19, Delta or otherwise.
Totally useless. Simply compare areas that live by the religion of masks and those that don’t. If there is any difference at all, the infection rates are HIGHER in masked areas. Plus, just look at how seriously your beloved idols take the mask mandates. Be a conned putz if you choose. Leave me out of it.
Why are masks worn in hospitals? BACTERIA, which are much larger and easily trapped than a virus. If you are carrying a virus, DON’T COME IN. Duh. No, it wasn’t political before. Not before Democrats politicized it.
Your ignorance continues to astound me greggie. I have posted in many of your comments that the only mask that will contain a virus is one with a rubber seal. The studies show there is no difference in COVID infection where people wear masks or do not wear masks. Now it looks like there is no difference in spreading the COVID virus by vaccinated people or nonvaccinated people.
People like Greg simply support government control of a citizen’s every movement.
What’s the good reason for leaving the southern border open and being flooded with illegals?
More fraudulent votes for Democrats. To Democrats, a worthy cause that justifies people dying.
The masks continue to be “theater.”
The surge in the Delta variant will be gone in two weeks, naturally, as we’ve seen in the UK.
From here, the unelected regime will state their mandates did it, so they can continue to up their overstep…month after month.
This is about power, power to make you do what they say…when they say it.
Nothing else.
Fauci should be removed immediately, and Biden should be impeached (can you impeach a dictator?) for gross incompetence and dereliction of duty.
EVERYONE KNOWS THAT MASKS DO NOT WORK.
Depends on what you are trying to accomplish.
except the LoFo’s and Stockholm Syndrome sufferers
Fools don’t make a distinction between “believing” and “knowing”.
You sure don’t.
I see your hallowed Episcopalian education feel on deaf ears.
No one who understands science or rhetoric would utter such ignorance.
but Fauci, couldn’t they ware a mask and be protected
I command the good and Godly people of this nation to rise up and SLAY THE OVERSEERS.
The hint is in the SYMBOLS.
The symbol of the Israelite is the MENORAH.
Why is the STAR OF REMPHAN on the flag of the so-called “Israel””?
Do any of you know your symbols?
What do 2 triangles mean?
As above, so below?
AKA Baphomet?
Oh and btw, note the erect phallus on Baphomet, with the 2 intertwined serpents.
Now look to the medical caduceus.
The Devil.
Israel.
Big Pharma.
See yee all now the unholy trinity.
The cowards downvote it but they certainly don’t have a thing factual to say against it.
We have too many facts, so…why bother?
Love the paid “pretend to be a non-existent fundie right goon from 1983” troll tactic, though.
Good luck with that.
Like I said…nothing to say against it. Nice attempt at subterfuge, tho.
And besides…one would think you would “bother” because you’d apparently want to set the record straight.
Except…by avoiding such a course specifically and intentionally, you kind of prove, if indirectly, that what I said was absolutely true. Because if I had a “dog in the race”, I’d certainly want the truth to be known. Unless…truth is NOT the goal.
How many realize that many of the vaccine companies have JEWISH CEO’S???
How many care? How many thinks that might matter?
If you knew what you’re SUPPOSED to know, you’d care a hell of a lot.
If you can’t see who’s running all this, you will NEVER be free of it.
I certainly refuse to make anti-Semitism a part of my thought process.
Here’s the only problem. You’ve been so manipulated and brainwashed, that you believe anything you’re told.
Here’s a fact. And yes, it’s a FACT. I can point you to DOZENS of sources which will verify this 100% FACT.
JEWS ARE NOT SEMITIC PEOPLE.
Caucasians are Hebrews and ARE SEMITIC PEOPLE.
This is what you’re doing, you silly little fool.
You just called an ACTUAL SEMITIC PERSON AN ANTI-SEMITE. That’s pretty dumb, especially for a “Deplorable”.
So how can I be “anti-myself” by talking about the descendants of the Devil, who are absolutely, unequivocally, DEMONSTRATABLY, NOT SEMITIC AT ALL?
This is where you need to pick up a book and learn.
Anti- Semitic. You can tell you’ve been brainwashed by THEM. How sad and pathetic.
Wow. Off the rails, into a gully, down into a canyon, out into the ocean and into the Marianas Trench.
Yeah that’s a cute little comment. But what you haven’t done is addressed the fact that Jews aren’t Semitic. In fact, you seem to be purposefully avoiding addressing that fact.
Do you get paid for this?
I’m thinking at this juncture you’re a Sayanim troll. Because if someone just told ME that I’ve been lied to my entire life, then offered up proof to establish it as fact, I’d certainly want to at least hear what this “proof” is. I’m thinking, though, that…truth…isn’t your thing.
Is it?
And by refusing to see TRUTH, you will FOREVER BE A SLAVE.
Oh geez…a anti-semite nut job. Buh bye
There are apparently a few Sayanim trolls on this site.
If you aren’t aware what a Sayanim is, I suggest you look it up and learn something.
Masks do not work…
They identify the fools.
Rather typical behaviour for the America-hating hypocrite who is selling you, . . .
a) “Man-Made Climate Change” to redistribute American wealth to third world countries,
b) Zero borders to permanently force change on America,
c) $6Trillion+ for bloating government Bureaucracy into an ideological mass that will be weaponized against Americans,
All his attendees who hate America should be put on a boat after his party and sent to Cuba for permanent residence, since it is evident that it is what they are turning America into.
Dr.John,
Fyodor Dostoevsky, arguably the greatest novelist in history, wrote the following:
“A man who lies to himself, and believes his own lies becomes unable to recognize truth, either in himself or in anyone else, and he ends up losing respect for himself and for others. When he has no respect for anyone, he can no longer love, and, in order to divert himself, having no love in him, he yields to his impulses, indulges in the lowest forms of pleasure, and behaves in the end like an animal. And it all comes from lying – lying to others and to yourself.“
He lived in the 19th century, but seems to have written a perfect description of Obama the self-hating, America-hating narcissist.
