House speaker Nancy Pelosi says she was ‘set up’ after she was photographed in a San Francisco hair salon without a face covering, breaking the city’s coronavirus prevention rules. ‘I take responsibility for trusting the word of a neighbourhood salon that I have been to over the years many times,’ she said. ‘I don’t wear a mask when I’m washing my hair. Do you wear a mask when you’re washing your hair?’ Security camera footage of Pelosi in the salon was obtained by Fox News, sparking outcry over the incident which was pounced on by Donald Trump
