(WATCH) Psaki Admits Mask Mandate on Airplanes is About Preserving Power

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki on Wednesday admitted forced masking on planes had nothing to do with science or keeping people from contracting COVID-19.

Everyone with common sense knows face diapers don’t stop viral spread.

But the Biden Regime is desperate to withhold power to force Americans to place dirty rags on their breathing holes.

A Trump-appointed federal judge on Monday declared the unscientific mask mandate as unlawful.

“It’s Time for Democrats to Take Credit for Ending the COVID Crisis Phase,” Says Democratic PR Firm Memo

The CDC on Wednesday requested Biden's Department of Justice to file an appeal to reinstate the mask mandate.

When asked about an appeal to the judge's ruling, Jen Psaki said the quiet part out loud.

That it's all about preserving power and has nothing to do with science.

“The Department of Justice has indicated that they would appeal, not just because they think it’s entirely reasonable…but because they think for current and future public health crises, uh, we want to preserve that authority for the CDC to have in the future,” Psaki said.

“Our focus here was seeing what power we had to preserve,” Psaki said.
