Isn’t it funny that republican’s congress people did not wear a mask while the insurrection was ongoing?
Yet another interesting fact;
Remember a news clip of an insurrection mugger was beating up on a security guard when the security guard said
“Why are you fighting with me?
I am one of the no mask members”!
Mitch McConnell and Kevin McCarthy were
at the Electoral College Vote 01/06/2021
So why did McCarthy without a mask on, sneak out just before the rioters attack?
Were Mitch McConnell and Kevin McCarthy at
the Capital electoral college on January 6th 2021?
Yes!
So each knows very well that it was an insurrection
not a picnic!

A variety of members of Congress have shared stories, some quite
harrowing, about where they were during the insurrectionist attack on the
Capitol on Jan. 6.
But this week, a previously unreported anecdote reached the
public, which stood out for a reason.
The New York Times published a report on House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy
(R-Calif.) and some of the challenges he's facing on Capitol Hill.
Way down in the article's 34th paragraph, there was this gem:
After the House chamber was
evacuated on Jan. 6, Mr. McCarthy retreated to his Capitol office with a
colleague, Representative Bruce Westerman, Republican of Arkansas.
When it
became evident the rioters were breaking in, Mr. McCarthy's security detail
insisted he leave.
But Mr. Westerman was left behind in Mr.
McCarthy's inner work area, he said in a recent interview.
For protection,
Mr. Westerman said he commandeered a Civil War
sword from an office display, barricaded himself in Mr. McCarthy's private bathroom
and waited out the siege while crouched on the
toilet.
