Who here has not used their connections or status in order to get something (or out of something) to benefit themselves over others in any particular situation?

Is what Nancy did here no different?

There are abuses of power EVERYWHERE and on ALL levels. It is just when the hypocrite gets caught, they are shamed. But otherwise, people boast about it.

Let's see.....
YOU went inside when your state mandates outside only
YOU requested a blow dry when you state forbids that.

So it looks like you did your "holier than thou" bullshit and got caught.
The next logical question is if the state mandated outside only, and forbids a blow dry why did the owner allow the joint to open up their doors to begin with?

OK lets assume the owner DIDN'T know about this and a rogue employee just opened the doors because it NP.

What am I missing here?

Pelosi is absolutely fuking insane. That we know.

Networking, schmoozing and the other myriad ways of legally and morally gaining the extra helping of favor you properly reference is one thing. But, this is in a whole ‘nother league. She’s a senior lawmaker who’s made her (our) bed with policies and laws - shouldn’t she therefore be bound by them especially in her own, once proud turned socialist State?
And, with her affluence I wonder why she didn’t just bring in a mobile hairdresser?
‘Pisses me off that she reflexively threw the salon owner (with the scary botox lips) under the bus saying she was “set up”. Petty. What is wrong with the people who repeatedly elect her?

I am not saying she is in the right, but I am saying that we have all taken advantage of privileges and pointing at someone else flaw when we all have our own does no one any good.

IMO - the salons need to be open as do all businesses. This whole virus thing has been politicized and it is the people of this great nation that have to pay the price.

While I agree about "casting the first stone" I think someone two heartbeats from the presidency should be held to a higher standard.

Sure reads like you are defending her to me.


See; what people are getting at is her squawking hate like a parrot.

Virus first comes out = Trump is wrong to say how serious it is.
3 months in = Trump is wrong for seeking vaccine, of all sorts.
6 months in = Trump is wrong for not doing enough.

And then she has the nerve to sneak a hair style in "using her connections"?

It's BS...hypocritical BS plain and simple.
That hag and many other antiques need out of office.

Bullshit. She's the most powerful D in the country. Furthermore, if you're trying to get your guy elected to POTUS you'd better be smart enough to walk a straight line when ALL eyes are on you and your candidate.

Ever thought her plan and the Biden plan are not one in the same?

She might be setting up the emperor with a new set of clothes

As much as I despise Pelosi, it does stink a little.

The owner supposedly gave the stylist her approval to do it.
The owner is (rightfully) pissed about being shut down for the last six months.
Suddenly the video from inside the salon goes viral?

Yes, someone in Pelosi's camp called to set up the appointment, but it looks to me like the owner had a plan...and I don't blame her.

If he had just refused and released the information that she had tried to make a locally illegal appointment, it would not have had anywhere near the impact. Hagalosi thought she had a supporter she could lean on, she thought wrong.

Pelosi should always have a mask on, + a leash and collar.

Ignorance of the law is no excuse, unless you are protesting/rioting/ or getting your hair done.

The fact that she even wanted an appt. in the first place is BS.
