Commissioner of Agriculture and gubernatorial hopeful, Nikki Fried (D), has through and through supported vaccine mandates. Now, Gov. Ron DeSantis's Press Secretary Christina Pushaw has once again called out Fried on her mandate double standard.
Amid the new Texas abortion law that abortion advocates and the Justice Department are fighting at the Supreme Court, Fried fired off a Tweet, claiming that it was "insane that in 2021 the right of women to make their own healthcare decisions is still in question. We won’t go back." Commissioner Fried referred to an article by the Washington Post that detailed the SCOTUS process with updates
Fried's comments however did not go without comment from her now-infamous critic, Secretary Pushaw, who believes Fried's stance on abortion and vaccines stand in total contradiction.
Pushaw then responded to Fried, stating, "Guess what @NikkiFried's position on employer mandates is?":

This adds to Pushaw's long history of battling it out with Democratic elected officials and media over COVID-19 positions against DeSantis.
Previously, The Floridian reported on Pushaw's unabated support and defense Governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL) on Twitter amidst COVID-19 disinformation being spread by certain media outlets.
