Earlier this month, US Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi was caught on camera without a protective mask while visiting a closed hair salon in San Francisco, California, amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, violating local restrictions. Commenting on the incident later, the lawmaker claimed that the whole thing was a “set up”. San Francisco salon owner Erica Kious has announced that she is closing her business after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s visit last week, according to Fox News. “I am actually done in San Francisco and closing my doors, unfortunately…I started to just get a ton of phone calls, text messages, emails, […]

Sputnik International https://sputniknews.com/us/202009071080393967-better-salon-mitt-romney-posts-home-made-haircut-photo-mocking-pelosis-set-up-incident/ Last Tuesday, a leaked surveillance video featured US Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi visiting a San Francisco hair salon without a face mask, in violation of guidelines for the ongoing coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, despite having urged Americans to stay home and abide by safety rules. The lawmaker claimed the incident was a “set up”. US Republican Senator Mitt Romney on Monday posted a photo of himself getting a haircut from his wife at home, saying that it was a “better salon” than the San Francisco, California, salon visited by US Speaker […]
The Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, claimed during a Wednesday press conference that she had been “set up” as she addressed criticism she has faced after she was caught on video in San Francisco visiting a hair salon despite regulations that prohibited such places from providing indoor services due to rules aimed at halting the spread of COVID. “Does anyone want a Speaker of the House who can be so easily SET UP?”– this is the message that hit Donald Trump’s Twitter on Thursday as POTUS again blasted Nancy Pelosi for her controversial visit to a San Francisco hair salon […]
US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi insists she was “set up” after she was spotted visiting a San Francisco hair salon in violation of Covid-19 rules, demanding an apology from the business owner while refusing to offer one of her own. The Democratic rep mounted her defense at an event about school reopenings in San Francisco’s Noe Valley on Wednesday, maintaining that she was led to believe her hair appointment earlier this week would be permitted under the city’s virus guidelines. “I take responsibility for trusting the word of the neighborhood salon that I’ve been to over the years many times when […]
Even though many of us aren’t getting the chance to be seen by anyone outside of your household due to lockdown measures, we still want to look good. It’s only human. Getting my nails done with Japanese gel at one of the few New York salons that specialize in the technique was part of my monthly beauty ritual. But now, as nail salons are still shut down in many states, and those that are open probably aren’t with the risk, I mostly accepted my hands would look like that of a 16-year-old boy for the foreseeable future. But a few months […]
Gateway Pundit readers may recall the story of Lindsey Graham (no, not that one), the salon owner in Salem, Oregon, who opened her shop in defiance of Governor Kate Brown’s shut down orders. She was threatened with $70,000 in fines, targeted by the rioters, her building lease was jeopardized, and the state threatened to take her children away. She was eventually hit with $14,000 in fines from OSHA. She’s now firing back, and has filed a lawsuit against the state. Oregon Live reports: The embattled owner of Glamour Salon, who reopened her downtown Salem salon on May 5 in violation of […]
First it was Shelley Luther, in Dallas, Texas. Now Lindsey Graham (no, not *that* Lindsey Graham), a salon owner in Salem, Oregon, is being targeted by state officials for having the audacity to open her business. Despite being threatened with upwards of $70,000 in fines, she opened up on May 5th, in defiance of governor Kate Brown’s lockdown orders, while dozens rallied in support along the sidewalk. Then the state started follow through with their threats. She has been fined $14,000 by OSHA, claiming she is putting her employees at risk. Except she doesn’t have any employees. Like many other salons, […]
Shelley Luther, the Texas hair salon owner who received national attention for defying orders to keep her shop temporarily closed during the coronavirus pandemic, admitted on Monday morning that she had received $18,000 in stimulus funds days before her fateful court appearance. Luther became a conservative hero when she was briefly jailed last week following her refusal to apologize to a Texas judge after she was found guilty of civil and criminal contempt for violating a temporary restraining order by keeping her shop open despite stay-at-home orders. Sentenced to seven days in jail and a $7,000 fine, Luther was quickly freed […]
On Thursday, the Professional Beauty Federation of California published a press release to the “Hot Topics” section of their website. It was titled: “Time to Sue Governor Newsom.” The release came in response to Gov. Gavin Newsom’s announcement that the following morning, California would officially enter “Phase Two” of the “Safer at Home” order. Select businesses, from florists to clothing retailers to toy stores, would be able to resume operations in a limited capacity. But absent from the list of acceptable businesses: beauty salons. Newsom placed businesses like nail salons and barbershops in “Phase Three”—a stage he believes to be “months, […]
Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) on Friday flew from Houston to Dallas to get his hair cut at Shelley Luther’s salon after her release from jail. Texas salon owner Shelley Luther broke the state quarantine in late April to save her business and feed her children. Shelley was later served a citation from the city of Dallas the following morning for breaking state stay-at-home policies. At a rally that day SHE RIPPED IT UP during her speech! TRENDING: So Good! Kayleigh McEnany DESTROYS Liberal Hack Yamiche Alcindor and Fake News Media at Friday Presser (VIDEO) On Tuesday Shelley Luther was sentenced to […]
Texas salon owner Shelley Luther has been ordered released from jail after the governor and attorney general protested her imprisonment over violating the state’s lockdown and modified the shutdown orders to exclude imprisonment. Luther, who became a symbol of the movement to end Texas’ lockdown when she was arrested for refusing to shutter her Dallas salon despite a district judge’s restraining order, was ordered released from jail on Thursday by the Texas Supreme Court after serving two days of a seven-day sentence. Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick personally paid the $7,000 fine the judge had imposed on Luther in addition to her […]
Fox News host Sean Hannity was so impressed on Wednesday by jailed Texas salon owner Shelly Luther’s refusal to apologize for keeping her business open despite a statewide stay-at-home order that he directly compared her to the Scottish folk hero that Mel Gibson portrayed in the movie Braveheart. Luther was found guilty on Tuesday of civil and criminal contempt for ignoring a temporary restraining order that prohibited her from operating her salon, which she kept open in violation of the state’s coronavirus protection orders. Judge Eric Moye called her “selfish” for the move but told her he’d consider just issuing a […]
Texas Governor Greg Abbott and Attorney General Ken Paxton have each released statements calling for the immediate release of Shelley Luther, the Dallas salon owner who had the audacity to open her business. In the statement, Paxton heavily criticizes the judge, Obama devotee Eric Moye, who sentenced Luther to seven days in jail and ordered her to pay thousands in fines. CBS Dallas reports: Paxton said he believes the judge is abusing his authority and that her arrest seems like a “political stunt.” In a full statement, Paxton said: “I find it outrageous and out of touch that during this national […]
