This is Jesse Aguilar. He went to NFC championship game with 70k strangers &#8211; he is #DoneWithCovid but his Union wants kids masked.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/kystokes\/status\/1493368332208074754\">Meanwhile, the CTA released an official statement<\/a> praising Newsom\u2019s treatment of the Pandemic in recent months and \u201ccautious\u201d school protocols going forward. The hypocrisy of Aguilar and others towards kids who have little to no risk regardless of mandates.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Conversely, Gavin Newsom received similar flak last week as his own tweet maskless with Magic Johnson circulated; though Newsom adamantly denied any fault.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;I was very judicious yesterday, very judicious, and you\u2019ll see the photo that I did take where Magic was kind enough, generous enough, to ask me for a photograph, and in my left hand\u2019s a mask and I took a photo. The rest of the time I wore it as we all should \u2014 not when I had a glass of water or anything, and I encourage everybody else to do so.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/california-teachers-union-leader-under-fire-for-maskless-picture-at-rams-game\">Aguilar took a similar approach to the controversy<\/a>. &#8220;This person wants to know where my mask was. It was in my pocket. I took it off for the picture. There was nobody in front of me,&#8221; Aguilar said in the post. &#8220;I\u2019m glad to wear my mask in a pandemic. It\u2019s not hard and it shows I care about the people around me. I was glad SoFi required proof of vaccination. Getting vaccinated is the sane thing to do in a pandemic. I\u2019m glad sane people behave in a sane manner in an insane time. Where\u2019s your mask?&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is important to note in both these cases, mandates were in place at the venue to wear masks at all times unless drinking water. Nonetheless however, the egos of politicians and board members alike seem to trump actual rules, especially the ones these very people support publicly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Photo Cred: Carlos Avila Gonzalez\/ San Francisco Chronicle<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Written by Andrew Morris A California Teachers Association Board of Directors member has received backlash this week for a tweeted photo maskless at the Rams NFC game two weeks ago.
