On Thursday, a group of demonstrators gathered outside Nancy Pelosi’s San Francisco home to hang blow dyers and curlers on a tree after the House Speaker was caught violating COVID-19 restrictions to get her hair done.

The all-woman protest group called themselves “angry salon customers” who also want to get their hair done.

One video showed a hand-holding circle around the tree where the women hung hair appliances. They even draped an American flag over part of the tree, christening it the “Freedom Tree.”

Trump Calls Pelosi A Hypocrite

Pelosi is under heavy fire after Fox News aired surveillance footage showing her walking through a San Francisco salon with her hair wet and without wearing a mask.

President Donald Trump called her a hypocrite for defying the COVID-19 restrictions in her home city.

The owner of ESalon, the salon where Pelosi went to get her hair done, told Fox News that she rents chairs to stylists, and was told by one of her stylists in advance that Pelosi wanted a wash and blow dry.

San Francisco officials have not yet allowed indoor salons to open.

Salon Owner Furious With Pelosi – Nancy Calls It A ‘Set-Up’

Owner Kious said Pelosi insisting on getting her hair done was “a slap in the face” to the many struggling salons and other business owners who are suffering during the coronavirus lockdown.

Pelosi called her salon visit a “set-up” and even insisted the salon owner apologize to her.

“I take responsibility for trusting the word of a neighborhood salon that I’ve been to over the years many times, and that when they said … we’re able to accommodate people one person at a time, and that we can set up that time, I trusted that,” Pelosi said.

“As it turns out, it was a set-up,” she added.
