Rep. Eric Swalwell of California, a Democrat who last week accused Republicans of “prolonging” the Covid-19 pandemic, has become the latest liberal to be seen vacationing in Florida, far from his home state where severe Covid-19 restrictions remain in effect.
Photos published by the Daily Mail show Swalwell with his infant son as he speaks to a female friend in the lobby of the luxurious Loews Miami Beach Hotel.
“As we end 2021, mired in a deadly pandemic, you should know who has prolonged it,” Swalwell tweeted last week. “THESE GUYS. Republican liars. Your vacation cancelled. Your kids back to virtual learning. And back to masks everywhere. For blame look no further than #TheseGuys.”
Another Democrat hypocrite seen in Florida this week is Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the outspoken socialist who bashed Ted Cruz for going to Cancun during a Texas snowstorm, but has now abandoned her own constituents during a sharp rise in Covid-19 cases in favor of the sunny beaches of Florida.
Before Swalwell was pictured in Miami, Republican Florida Governor Ron DeSantis joked how Democrats from states with “draconian” Covid-19 policies keep popping up in his state.
Curious, isn’t it?

Ok – for everyone confused, if you’re in a state with a high vaccination rate and mask mandate, and you follow the rules, then you go to a DIFFERENT location with a lower vaccination rate and no mask mandate, and remove your mask, that doesn’t make you a hypocrite. It means you changed your behavior based on a change in circumstances.
If I go to China and remove my shoes at the door, even though I don’t require it at home, that doesn’t make me a hypocrite. This is ridiculous journalism.
Looking at a picture of two people, absolutely no one near them. Presumably both are fully vaccinated, how is that hypocritical?
Do as I say not as I do. And then these lowlife reprobate pervert Congresspeople wonder why their constituents don’t listen to a word they have to say. They sanctimoniously wave their finger at us and lecture us about what is proper and what isn’t.
Oh please there are folks on both sides of the fence who are not masking and vacationing in FL. Find some real news to report.
It’s hypocrisy because they demand draconian mandates for their own states for “safety” and then happily flee the “safety” of their states for the “death state “ as AOC mocked desantis for being too easy on covid and causing deaths
What mask? What Covid?
When you are talking to each other, do you need to wear a mask?
The photo of maskless Swalwell appears to be in a restaurant. People, hypocritically or otherwise, take off their masks to eat and drink. I have not heard that Florida governor deSantis is asking tourists to stay away from Florida, or Florida’s restaurants.
