The San Francisco salon owner, who Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) alleges set her up by recording her visit to the facility without a mask last week, has received more than $300,000 in donations. A GoFundMe page for Erica Kious, the owner of the salon where Pelosi was videotaped without a mask for a hair appointment, raised $310,725 from 8,800 donors as of Tuesday afternoon. The fundraiser surpassed its $300,000 goal on Labor Day. Kious thanked the donors, her daughters, their “loving dad,” and her family and friends in a letter published on the page on Monday. “I wish I could...

The name “Pelosi” has roots in the Latin word “pilus,” meaning “hair.” So perhaps it’s somewhat poetic that, in this foulest of years, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi finds herself tangled up in a ridiculous scandal involving an illicit salon appointment. Pelosi breezed into San Francisco’s eSalon for a wash and blow-dry last Monday despite the fact that, as everyone else in that city knows, public health rules ban indoor salon services in the middle of this deadly coronavirus pandemic. Security camera footage leaked to Fox News showed a wet-headed Pelosi walking through the establishment unmasked. Read more here: https://www.modbee.com/opinion/article245478630.html#storylink=cpy

President Trump on Thursday went off on Nancy Pelosi’s claims she was “set up” at a San Francisco hair salon — as his press secretary laced into the House speaker while repeatedly playing the video that kicked off the fiasco. “Crazy Nancy Pelosi said she was ‘set up’ by the beauty parlor owner when she improperly had the salon opened (and didn’t wear a MASK!),” Trump tweeted. “Does anyone want a Speaker of the House who can be so easily SET UP?” The president’s post was contemporaneous to White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany’s press briefing with reporters, which she...

CNN anchor Don Lemon offered a rare scolding of a Democrat, this time House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., over her controversial visit to a San Francisco hair salon in violation of state and local coronavirus ordinances. In security footage obtained by Fox News and timestamped Monday at 3:08 p.m. PT, the California political powerhouse is seen walking through ESalonSF with wet hair, and without a mask. During an appearance on MSNBC that night, Pelosi criticized President Trump for giving his Republican National Convention acceptance speech before a live audience on the South Lawn at the White House. On Wednesday, the...

"There was no way I could've set that up," Kious fired back. "I've had a camera system in there for five years. I mean, I didn't go in there and turn cameras on as soon as she walked in and set her up. So that is absolutely false." Salons in San Francisco had been closed since March and could only reopen for outdoor hairstyling services on Sept. 1. Pelosi said she understood that coronavirus restrictions allowed for a one-on-one appointment indoors. "I heard that," Kious told Carlson, "and I thought to myself, 'Well as a hairstylist, I see clients one-on-one....

Hillary Clinton put part of Bergdorf Goodman on lockdown on Friday to get a $600 haircut at the swanky John Barrett Salon. Clinton, with a huge entourage in tow, was spotted being ushered through a side entrance of the Fifth Avenue store on Friday. A source said, “Staff closed off one side of Bergdorf’s so Hillary could come in privately to get her hair done. An elevator bank was shut down so she could ride up alone, and then she was styled in a private area of the salon.
