The Committee on House Administration, Republican Office is demanding Nancy Pelosi be fined — just like all the other members — after she was BUSTED breaking her own rules after “multiple members observed [her] enter the House Chamber without completing security screening”:
Speaker Pelosi broke her own rules this week by entering the House Chamber without going through security. We are demanding she face the same fines as every other member of Congress. pic.twitter.com/5yj8ZIMUUD

“Pay the fine Speaker Pelosi,” tweeted Rep. Dan Crenshaw:
Pay the fine Speaker Pelosi. https://t.co/xT7ps5JaQv

Or do the rules not apply to her?
Just proves this new rule is being arbitrarily enforced & clearly does not apply to all members. It was put in place for political gain, not for safety. The SAA is appointed by Speaker Pelosi & once again, she is showing the American people that the rules do not apply to her. pic.twitter.com/YYRcx1vJGR

Rep. Thomas Massie pointed out that Rep. Louie Gohmert got fined after he returned to the chamber without going through the metal detectors after a trip to the bathroom:
.@SpeakerPelosi flaunts her own $5k metal detector fine in the House chamber.
Meanwhile, my friend @replouiegohmert went through security, later went to the restroom immediately adjacent security but didn’t return through the metal detectors and was fined $5000 by @SpeakerPelosi https://t.co/r2tedl7Ukr

It’s weird how the journos chronicling every Republican who skirted the machines missed this one, right?
.@MEPFuller, did you take the day off? Where were you on this one? https://t.co/4mbU7W7l5n

And the pile-on is in full swing:
Nancy Pelosi once again proves that the Swamp functions under ‘rules for thee but not for me.’
If the Speaker is going to mandate all Members use new metal detectors for the House floor or be fined, she also needs to comply.
Speaker Pelosi, it's time to pay up!

Why isn't the Speaker of the House being fined for skirting the metal detector? https://t.co/4z9l0udGLl

Speaker Pelosi made the rules. She must live by her rules like everyone else. https://t.co/6ZYcOEaW3c

Speaker Pelosi continues her "do as I say not as I do" leadership for the House of Representatives. https://t.co/lZvLJGHojQ
