Pelosi backed the return to masking Wednesday morning, citing Monahan’s scientific opinion.

“That’s the purview of the Capitol Physician … the mandate from him. I have nothing to say about that except we honor it,” Pelosi told reporters outside the Capitol.

Asked about McCarthy’s comments in opposition, Pelosi blasted the GOP leader.

“He’s such a moron,” she said.

Pelosi then ducked into her vehicle and was whisked away from a climate event outside the Capitol.
