You'd think it's a pretty low bar to clear for an elected official to comply with their own mask mandate, but apparently it isn't:
In one video, a maskless Breed can be seen dancing for more than a minute without a drink or food in hand, and photos show her posing maskless with attendees and some of the artists.
"Don't feel as though you have to be micromanaged about mask wearing. Like, we don't need the fun police to come in and try and micromanage and tell us what we should or shouldn't be doing. We know what we need to do to protect ourselves," Breed told reporters on Friday when asked about the episode at a news conference.
Whatever happened to having a bit of humility and owning up to a mistake? Would it have been so wrong to admit that she let her guard down and that she should have been wearing her mask? Also, isn't she sort of in charge of the 'fun police'? No one actually wants to wear a mask, but it's frustrating when someone in her position isn't taking it seriously and setting a good example.
And in the age of social media, camera phones and polarizing political gotcha journalism, I can't imagine why a mayor of a major US city would even think that going to a nightclub and not being vigilant about mask wearing would be a good idea. She's practically begging for the Fox News crowd to talk about her for the next couple of days.
