White House issues memo requiring staff to wear masks in West Wing, CNBC, 5/11/20
... The directive from the White House management office was laid out in a memo to staffers Monday afternoon, NBC reported. ... The memo also asked staff members to avoid visiting the West Wing, where the Oval Office is located, unless it is necessary, the sources told NBC.


Something to keep in mind when some fuckhead harasses you about wearing a mask -- if they're so ineffective or the Covid19 is just a hoax, or if only wimps or “Democrat Islamo-Maoists" wear them, then ask the fuckhead why does your fearless leader require everyone near him to wear a mask? Why is he wimpifying his staff -- and by extension himself?

If people do nothing, assaults like this will increase. These guys have to be arrested. ancianita Jul 2020 #12
I agree, but when you are female and are threatened by a man Ferrets are Cool Jul 2020 #15
I hear you. That's why women, by now, must think and plan in advance for 'the ambush.' ancianita Jul 2020 #17
