Schumer & Jefferies already caving on "No Masks"

25. poster looks to be advocating 'defending the indefensible'

...a declaration of their personal principle, perhaps?

Nothing appears defensible in the sophistry in the supposition that Schumer and Jeffries caved on masks by saying they would expect standards that "local police and local sheriffs" follow, with exceptions for concealing identities that they follow for things like anti-terrorism, and undercover work, for example.

Earlier in the week, both leaders had expressed broader objections to mask use. In an interview with “PBS News Hour,” Jeffries said, “Police officers don’t wear masks. Sheriffs don’t wear masks. State troopers don’t wear masks.” Schumer, speaking on the Senate floor, criticized the practice and said it should not receive special consideration.

Sen. Chris Murphy (D‑Conn.) said the party’s position had not changed in substance. “Common sense dictates that there are sometimes safety reasons why you may need a mask,” Murphy told HuffPost. “But if you’re using a mask to obscure your identity in everyday law enforcement, that should be prohibited by law.”
