A popular political Twitter account published a clearly satirical, Jussie Smollett-style post marking the end of the Biden administration’s transportation mask mandate.
The tweet somehow duped a New York Times reporter, who messaged the Twitter user, Jared Rabel, asking for an interview.
“I boarded a plane today with my son and mid flight, the pilot announces that the mask mandate is over,” Rabel posted Monday night. “Flight attendants pulled off their masks and sneezed directly into their hands while screaming ‘this is MAGA airspace.’ My son turned to me in tears. I don’t know what to do.”
