USA Today Mocked After ‘Fact Check’ Claims Calling Out Dems for COVID Hypocrisy Is ‘Missing Context’

By Fox News. USA Today was once again mocked Wednesday over another so-called “fact check,” this time for their scrutiny of a claim calling out Democratic leaders for their apparent coronavirus hypocrisy.

On Tuesday, USA Today outlined the claim that “[s]everal Democratic politicians urge social distancing and issuing stay-at-home advisories but host or attend gatherings,” which stemmed from a viral Facebook post from the group Occupy Democrats Logic.

The post, which has since been taken down, included a screenshot of a Nov. 13 tweet from conservative commentator Liz Wheeler, who called out California Gov. Gavin Newsom, Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot, and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., for flouting CDC guidelines over the past several weeks. . .

The fact check acknowledges that there was “some truth” to the claims, confirming that Newsom did in fact attend a dinner party at the French Laundry in Napa County and Lightfoot similarly addressed a pro-Biden celebration on the streets of Chicago.

However, the paper pointed out that both Pelosi and the House GOP had planned a dinner for new members of Congress before scrapping those plans. The fact check, however, does not mention Pelosi’s infamous trip to a shuttered San Francisco hair salon without wearing a mask, which was first reported by Fox News.

McEnany Hits Democratic Leaders for Not Following Their Own COVID-19 Restrictions

By The Hill. White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany on Wednesday admonished Democratic leaders who have sparked controversy after being seen in public despite health restrictions several of them implemented or supported in response to the coronavirus pandemic.

“Behind me you will see images of Democrat hypocrisy playing on loop,” McEnany told reporters during a press briefing.

The press secretary played images of California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) eating at an indoor restaurant last week, Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot (D) celebrating President-elect Joe Biden’s victory last month in what McEnany called “maskless streets” and Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) visiting a California hair salon earlier this summer while they were closed by local health officials.

“Quite clearly, these Democrats do not follow their own edicts,” she said. “They act in a way their own citizens are barred from acting.”
