The Appropriate Response to Mask Bullies
Yesterday, Eric Swalwell of California was leaving the House floor when he was confronted by a staffer to Marjorie Taylor Greene, yelling at him to take off his mask, saying, “Biden says to take off your mask!” Swalwell responded appropriately: “You don’t tell me what to fucking do!”
Swalwell doesn’t think his response was explicit enough. I think it was perfect, especially to Greene or any of the Mini Me fascists who work for her.
I had a mask on as I stepped off the Floor. An aide with @mtgreenee yelled at me to take my mask off. No one should be bullied for wearing a mask. So I told the bully what I thought of his order. Predictably, he went speechless. I regret I wasn’t more explicit. https://t.co/o8j0DXWOBm
