The biggest voices in the House traded verbal jabs over the new mask mandate in the lower chamber.<\/p>\n<p>On Wednesday, Pelosi and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) clashed over the capitol physician\u2019s decision to reinstate a mask mandate on the House floor. Pelosi immediately went with a low blow in response. The top Democrat called McCarthy a \u201cmoron\u201d for saying the CDC\u2019s ever-changing guidance on face masks isn\u2019t supported by science.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">PELOSI THIS MORNING: Kevin McCarthy is \u201csuch a moron.\u201d<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/zuP1JHCdJ0\">pic.twitter.com\/zuP1JHCdJ0<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Benny (@bennyjohnson) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/bennyjohnson\/status\/1420438324301471755?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 28, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>McCarthy said the reinstatement of masks in the House of Representatives is \u201cabout more control.\u201d He argued the new guidance only applies to \u201chot spots\u201d and that there is a high vaccination rate at the U.S. Capitol.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is no different than her (Pelosi) and telling people they couldn\u2019t go out, but she\u2019s getting her hair done,\u201d noted the Republican lawmaker. \u201cJust today I watched her in a private meeting not wearing a mask, so do as she say but not as she does.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, Pelosi only doubled down on her verbal assault against McCarthy and failed to apologize.
