Jill Biden is being accused of hypocrisy online for this bizarre reason

The wife of US President Joe Biden, Jill, has found herself in the middle of a social media storm. Here’s what’s happening.

A potential ban on gas stoves

The US Consumer Product Safety commissioner is considering banning gas stoves due to ​​increasing concerns about the potentially harmful air pollutants they emit. Now, a photo of Dr Jill Biden using a gas stove is circulating on Twitter. And people aren’t happy about it.

The thing is, the First Lady of the United States (FLOTUS) posted the photo to her own Twitter account back in 2020, long before the ban on gas stoves was being considered. However, that did not stop social media users from giving a piece of their minds.

Social media users up in arms

Ted Cruz, a member of the Republican Party and United States Senator representing the state of Texas, tweeted a 'slogan' that’s making the rounds with the picture, 'Rules for thee, but not for me':
