Trust Jill Bidenās masking advice. After all, sheās a doctor.
Not a medical doctor, mind you ā she has a doctorate in education ā but Iāve been reliably informed itās misogynist if you donāt call her ādoctor.ā So trust her when she models proper masking behavior: 70-year-old adults can go without one, but kids had better cover their faces.
Sound backward? Sheās aĀ doctor. Are you questioning the (educational) science? (āQuestioning the scienceā is something that power-hungry liberals always love to tar their opponents with. Weāre dedicated to fighting that kind of forced conformity here at The Western Journal ā and you can help us by subscribing.)
According to the Daily Caller, the first lady welcomed some second-graders from Malcolm Elementary School in Waldorf, Maryland, on Monday as she unveiled the White Houseās Christmas decorations and read from her childrenās book, āDonāt Forget, God Bless Our Troops.ā
Dr. Seuss it wasnāt, so perhaps the White House wanted to hide the reactions on the faces of the little tykes. Whatever the case, notice the difference between Jill Biden and the children as she asks them how much money they got from the tooth fairy:
Jill apparently neednāt wear a mask. The kids, however, had to cover their faces. Donāt let the dirty riff-raff breathe all over the joint, I guess.
The full remarks were carried on C-SPAN and evinced more mask hypocrisy from the adults.

At the 26-minute mark, Martin and Chris Kratt of PBSā āWild Krattsā come into the room wearing Masks but quickly take them off. They speak maskless for a little less than four minutes before they introduce the first lady, āDr. Jill Biden!ā (What are the odds that PBS would lose federal funding if they forgot the ādoctorā part?)
The book-reading begins at around the 33-minute mark. The 2012 book, which tells the story of Jill Bidenās late stepson Beauās deployment, means exceptionally well, but sounds as if it could have been written or read by any adult present at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. on Monday. (Iām guessing some of the kids probably could have penned it, for that matter.)
Thus, keeping the first ladyās mask off allowed the students to remind themselves they were gazing upon the first lady to distract themselves from her leaden prose. After the reading, however, she kept on going maskless ā even though the Kratts, having reappeared at around the 46-minute mark, were masked up.

If the Kratt brothers can mask up, why canāt Jill Biden?
If one wishes to āfollow the science,ā for instance, consider that the first lady is exponentially more likely to die of COVID than the youngsters are. According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention data, 175,430 Americans between the ages of 65-74 have died of the virus as of Nov. 24. Only 621 under the age of 17 have. Furthermore, the 17 kids were all tested for COVID before they came to the White House.
The masking drew some reactions on Twitter.
āJill Biden forces little children to mask and social distance at the White House while she does neither. This is beyond stupid. This is a cruel and sick abuse to children for a Christmas celebration,ā Turning Point USAās Benny Johnson tweeted.
Furthermore, this comes days after President Joe Biden went maskless inside a store in Nantucket, Massachusetts, over Thanksgiving vacation. The president could be seen through a glass door with a large sign reading, āRequired Face Covering.ā
At least Dr. Jillās husband wasnāt forcing kids to wear Masks while he went maskless. Thatās a different level of elitist hypocrisy right there.
And to think, Whoopi Goldberg once floated the first lady as a possible pick for surgeon general. Some doctor she turned out to be.
