I’d begin by saying House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is among the most unabashedly hypocritical people to ever wield the Speaker’s gavel, but you already know that. So let’s begin with this: Georgia Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene is on track to spend a third of her Congressional salary in defiance of Pelosi’s House Mask Mandate, while Pelosi is hobnobbing at elbow-room-only lavish weddings. Maskless.
Let’s first deal with Pelosi’s in-your-face-I-don’t-give-a-damn hypocrisy.
It’s a lot of A holes!

As reported by The New York Post, Pelosi not only attended the wedding of billionaire oil heiress Ivy Getty maskless; she also officiated the ceremony at San Francisco City Hall — maskless, as well. The Post reported that Pelosi asked guests to don their masks as she entered City Hall.

Nancy Pelosi in fact, is still ruling with an iron fist over her House mask mandate. As RedState reported in July, Capitol Police were ordered to arrest anyone — including visitors and staff — who refused to comply with Pelosi’s House mask mandate.
In the Senate chamber, such a mandate was not issued.
And as we reported in May, Greene got herself into hot water by comparing Pelosi’s mask mandate to the Holocaust, drawing rebukes from several of her House Republican colleagues, including House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) and Rep. Steve Scalise (R-La.). Whether or not Greene regretted the comparison or not, she continues to stand in defiance of Pelosi’s power-trip mask mandate.
According to The Hill, Greene was penalized 20 times in total for not covering up in the House chamber. She has also been fined roughly $50,000 for this defiance. The fines have been automatically deducted from Greene’s $174,000 annual salary.
Greene was able to surpass the $25,000 mark in October after she achieved it. tweetedThis is:
I have over $25,000 in mask fines bc I refuse to wear a mask in the chamber where over 80% of Congress is vaccinated and I’m NOT sick. As a Congresswoman, if I don’t stand up against tyranny & suffer consequences, then how can others?
As The Hill also reported, Greene, joined by Republican colleague Ralph Norman (S.C.), has filed a lawsuit against Pelosi, arguing that the Speaker’s mask mandate is in violation of the 27th Amendment and that the fines being issued are unconstitutional. It is currently ongoing.

Meanwhile, Planet Pelosi is a happy place. Rules are not for little people, and Pelosi can do whatever she wants, when she wants.
