Broadway joins the hypocrites on the Left regarding COVID measures and mandates

Do what they mandate, not what they do seems to be the modus opprandi of the Left and it has come to Sunday night's Tony Awards where people put out a united message about wearing masks in theaters for everyone's safety, but what they did themselves shows just how much they believe in what they preach.

“Everyone here is vaxxed and tested, and everyone is wearing a mask,” host  of the event, Leslie Odom Jr. said. “Every Broadway theater will look like this for a while, and that’s OK.”

After Odom pontificated and the cameras were off, the symbolic masks came off.

One guy in the mezzanine bar was loudly talking about the hot after-party for "Slave Play" at Neuehouse, which was requiring proof of vaccination and a negative COVID test to attend. He explained to those with him, “[M]y assistant found a picture online of a BinaxNow test that was negative, and sent it.” He laughed and encouraged his friends to do the same. That is, show a fake COVID test and go party.

Of course the hypocrisy goes beyond a single incident like this. 

Don't forget how Nancy Pelosi went to her hairdresser's without a mask at the height of the pandemic and was caught on camera. Businesses were supposed to be closed for the time being but Pelosi demanded her hair be coiffed and probably cut and colored, and she got her wish. Unfortunately, the salon was later closed down because the owner broke the laws.

Then there's San Francisco Mayor London Breed (D) who mandated masks in public indoor gatherings and was photographed at the Black Cat nightclub on Sept. 15th dancing and singing without a mask. Her excuse was that the performer "moved" her.

"When the spirit moves you because you are watching history in the making, Bay Area royalty perform, I don't know about you but I'm not going to turn around and look for where my mask is or look to make sure I'm picking up a drink," Breed said. "I'm just going to let the spirit move me."

Then there's Washington, D.C. mayor Muriel Bowser (D) who raised a few eyebrows for traveling from D.C. to Wilmington, Delaware on November 6th to celebrate co-presidents Biden and Harris' election victory at a time Delaware was classified as a "high-risk" state. Bowser defended the trip as "essential" travel, so the virus obediently stayed away.

Then in July, Bowser reinstated an indoor mask mandate, including for fully vaccinated residents, amid rising coronavirus cases in D.C. driven by the Delta variant. But the day the mask mandate went back into effect, July 31, Bowser officiated a wedding at The Line, a hotel in Adams Morgan, featuring hundreds of maskless guests. 

"Masks for the peasants but not for me and my buddies."

And then there's Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D-MI) who apologized on May 23rd for violating her own mandate regarding social distancing when she was caught at a restaurant with several people in East Lansing.

An article published by Breitbart shows a photo of Frau Whitmer sitting quite close to a dozen people, in blatant disregard for Michigan's Department of Health's order stating that restaurants can only seat groups of six people together and must keep tables six feet apart.

In addition, Whitmer's husband was also caught trying to go boating last year during lockdown.

And who can forget California Gov. Gavin "Hair Gel" Newsom?

Newsom got nailed for attending a large indoor gathering — a birthday party for one of his top advisors, lobbyist Jason Kinney — at The French Laundry, a ritzy restaurant in Napa Valley. The party involved 12 people from different households while the state's guidance involved a limit to no more than three households based on the science and the fact that the virus only attacks gatherings of more than four households.

Newsom's liars initially said the gathering was outside and didn't violate any public health guidelines, but once the photos got out and obtained by Fox 11 in Los Angeles, they got caught with their proverbial pants down at the French Laundry where pants are not optional.

The list of Democratic hypocrisy is long, and includes, in part: 

Austin Mayor Steve Adler, Los Angeles County Supervisor Sheila Kuehl, San Jose Mayor, Sam Liccardo, Sen. Dianne Feinstein (CA), Denver Mayor Michael Hancock, NY Gov. Andrew "Believe All Women" Cuomo, Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams, Deputy Brooklyn Borough President Ingrid Lewis-Martin, and Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot.

You can do the research on each one of these lying hypocrites and you will likely come to the conclusion that they don't even believe the bullcrap they're preaching.
