Well, see, this is OK, because he is one of our Betters, so he’s allowed to do things you are not supposed
Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) ordered all California beaches and state parks to close last week. However, photos of Democratic Congressman Harley Rouda reportedly show he was at a private beach last weekend despite saying that opening the beaches was “reckless.”
“Keeping Orange County beaches open during a heat wave is reckless,” Rouda tweeted April 21. “We need leaders who will prioritize public health and make the tough calls to keep our families safe.” (snip)
“Opening beaches to thousands of Southern Californians during a weekend heat-wave without adequate social-distancing protocols was a reckless action that put the families of California’s 48th district in harm’s way,” Rouda said last Thursday.
CBS News found photos of Rouda “spending time at a private beach in Southern California” last weekend.
CBS doesn’t actually show the photo. Others do
Do as I say, not as I do: @HarleyRouda denounced Orange County for opening beaches in defiance to @GavinNewsom lock-downs, but over the weekend, Rouda was caught hanging out on what appears to be California's only private beach, Emerald Bay, see photo below. https://t.co/xsGvykSChm pic.twitter.com/hgpYYoOOl7
