Lightfoot’s stay-at-home advisory comes just one week after the mayor went maskless into a large crowd of Biden supporters and told them, “You should absolutely celebrate this victory and savor every minute of it.” She defended the gathering by claiming on MSNBC last week that all attendees were wearing masks—which her own Twitter video disproves—and faced no pushback, even as she used the interview to tell citizens not to meet in “private places.” She also said traditional Thanksgiving plans should be canceled. – READ MORE
