If you thought Chuck Todd was bothered on Meet the Press Sunday by the CDC allowing vaccinated Americans to drop their masks, wait until you see Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot.
Speaking to MSNBC, on which Todd hosts a show, Lightfoot made it known her mask is not coming off, she’s not convinced it’s safe, and she’s encouraging others to stay masked up like she is until further notice.
Mayor Lightfoot (@chicagosmayor) says she hopes vaccinated Chicagoans continue wearing masks despite CDC guidance: "I’m going to continue to wear a mask in public and I’m going to encourage others to do so." pic.twitter.com/td7IOkCCdh

What type of clarification is she looking for? She didn’t say, but apparently, the type she and the country have received so far will not suffice.
“We’ve gotta make sure that people are continuing to follow the public health guidance,” she goes on.
Well, actually, you are telling them not to. The vaccinated, that is.
At least one person is smiling at Lightfoot’s announcement: MSNBC’s own Rachel Maddow, who is going through a bit of struggle as she “rewires” herself. Maddow said it’s going to take time and rewiring not to view unmasked Americans as “COVID deniers,” “selfish,” and “threats.”
(It seems like 70% of the crazy is said on MSNBC, no?)
It’s true. Masks mean to the Left what the MAGA hats once meant to the Right.
I have a better chance surviving Covid than I do walking 10 blocks in Chicago at 11:00 pm.
I’ll take under on the 10 blocks lol
Very true
America took a vote, we agreed unanimously that she should continue to wear mask.
Yeah, it should cover her whole face, though.
A paper bag as well.
Let the little dude wear a mask for life!!!
Comfortable room temp is 70. What is the chance Lightfoot’s IQ is higher? Answer: zero.
When is Twitter going to kick her off? That’s what they do to people who contradict CDC guidance, right? I’ll wait…….😂😂
BETELGEUSE, BEETLE JUICE, BEATLE FLOOSH 🤣
Lightfoot is the lovechild of Beetlejuice and a zombie.
Liberals love tyranny. Mask mandates are being lifted and the sheeple are refusing to follow new guidlines and stay masked up.
With a face like that I’d wear a mask permanently too.
Who doesn’t believe in bigfoot. She is his daughter but don’t blame him
Comparing masks and MAGA hats is like comparing swastikas and the America flag. You should be ashamed.
213 murders so far this year in Chicago and vaccinated people should still wear masks. I’m glad the mayor’s priorities are in order. You get what you vote for.
Make that 228
This is just more proof that it was never about public safety or following the science. It was always about control and Mayor Beetlejuice is desperate to hang on to that control. It’s Chicago so she’ll have no problem brainwashing the sheep who keep voting for Democrats that are destroying the city.
You are correct Steve. The idiot voters in Chicago will keep voting for Lightfoot or another Black politician who will be as corrupt as ever. The Whites who live in Chicago love minority politicians because they don’t have to worry about losing their financial hold on the city. And there are decent Latino politicians but they are powerless even though they are a large percentage of the population. It’s sad to see a once-great city become a s$$thole.
LMAOOO
clown show material
Bobby while in some jaded way I believe “the mask” is a symbol of the wimps on the left and the panic that overcomes them when confronted with their own shadows as well as strong & confident Americans, there’s no relation to America First principled folks who supported 45 and the MAGA movement. We all had a blast supporting our POTUS. The left are a miserable lot who no longer have any idea on how to have a good time.
Death, destruction and despair is the calling card of the terrorist cult known as the DemocRat party. The face diaper is their Burka.
fine. she can keep her mask I’ll keep my firearm.
Lightfoot is proof that Zombies do exist. That is a face that should be hidden by a mask. Better make it a bullet proof one with a matching set of body armor if you are in Chicago on a weekend night.
