As Twitchy reported earlier, a maskless group of House GOP members crossed over to the Senate side of the Capitol so they could be in the chamber when Sen. Mike Lee gave his speech about the House mask rules.
That wasn’t the end of it, though. Aaron Fritschner, a staffer for Rep. Don Beyer of Virginia, caught a bunch of unmasked Republican staffers playing beer pong in the halls of the Rayburn building. He snapped pictures so he could shame them.
A group of unmasked Republican staffers are playing beer pong (but with cups of water) in the halls of Rayburn House Office Building. Presumably their need to demonstrate the exercise of "freedoms" is stronger than their sense of responsibility to justify taxpayer-funded salaries

Hard to show the full scope because it’s a tight space and there are a bunch of people, but it’s about a hundred staff crammed together in a narrow hallway on second floor of Rayburn, almost all unmasked. They’re playing water pong, they have corn hole, I even smelled a cigar. pic.twitter.com/g2Q68SUVFs

“About a hundred.”
I do not work in a fraternity house. I don't know why these people felt the need to do this here, but it is terrible and horrifying that displays of decadent apathy are all these people can summon at a time when people are getting sick and dying.

If you pay taxes in the United States you are paying for this.

We’re also paying you to do this.
Two other things:
1) There is *no* chance these people will clean this up. They will leave it for the custodial staff.
2) There are Dem offices on that hall too, with staffers who have to walk through this go home.

As a liberal, I'd say this is a pretty good example of why people dislike us. They're not hurting anyone, just trying to relax. FFS man

Show us on the doll where the mean people having fun at the end of the day hurt you. 🤣 Either you didn’t get invited or, like most Democrats, you can’t stand when you can’t control someone. Big time Jonah vibes coming from you here. pic.twitter.com/aBBKemhJiL
