House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy ripped Speaker Nancy Pelosi this week; saying she’s less interested in supporting local businesses than she is “violating local orders to get her hair done.”
“Perhaps Nancy will want to do more to help [small businesses] and not just violate local orders so she can get her hair done,” said the top Republican.

A writer for Politico deflected growing criticism of Nancy Pelosi’s secret spa day on Twitter; questioning the legality of the Salon owner recording her own customers “without their consent.”
“Have to ask upon seeing this: Is it legal in CA — a ‘two party consent’ state — to videotape someone in a private home or business without their consent?” posted journalist Carla Marinucci.

A spokesperson for Speaker Nancy Pelosi largely dismissed the top Democrat’s secret spa day Wednesday; saying she “always wears a mask” despite video surveillance footage showing the leader enjoying the salon with no face covering.
“The Speaker always wears a mask and complies with local COVID requirements. This business offered for the Speaker to come in on Monday and told her they were allowed by the city to have one customer at a time in the business. The Speaker complied with the rules as presented to her by this establishment,” Pelosi’s office said in the statement.

But for herself?
A salon visit whenever she pleases.
A “slap in the face” indeed.— Senate Republicans (@SenateGOP) September 1, 2020
