The really weird part of this federal court lawsuit is it's NOT Boebert suing the group that accused her of having been an escort and having had abortions for defamation.

 

Instead, it's just the opposite -- it's the group that accused Boebert suing HER for defamation after she went on a very public campaign trashing them in the wake of their public allegations against her.

 

As the following Colorado news report from June 8, 2023 recounts:

 

"Wheeler stands by his main allegations against Boebert, and the lawsuit notably asserts that “Boebert was aware that she had” worked as a paid escort, had two abortions, and used illegal drugs, even as she accused Wheeler and Muckrakers of publishing “false statements knowing they were completely fabricated,” characterized the statements as “defamation,” and said she was “moving forward with a lawsuit.”

 

Boebert never followed through with her threat to sue Wheeler and Muckrakers."

Are you suggesting 'trash' shouldn't hold public office?

I'd vouch for that position... Yes, voters should not be electing "trash" to run their governments, make laws, set policies, etc etc.

 

[TallGuyJohninBKK]

Boebert's on the market again now...for any MAGA types here who swing in her direction. Perhaps that's part of the reason behind the theater fondling episode:

 

Lauren Boebert's divorce is likely to be finalized next month, and it's unclear if her husband is cooperating

"Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert appears to be on track to have her divorce finalized next month, ushering in a new chapter for the conservative Republican who is never far from the headlines in Washington.

 

According to the court docket, Boebert and Jayson Boebert have a non-contested hearing scheduled for October 10. After nearly two decades of marriage, the congresswoman filed for separation in May."

No problem with trash holding public office, as long as they don't pretend to hold high morals.

[bamboozled]

The woman is bad news. It occurred to me....was this a dark theater and the footage is from an infrared camera? It kind of looks like it. I don't care to defend her, however, if it was indeed dark, at least the groping wasn't quite as blatant and obvious as it seems in the vid. I haven't seen that mentioned anywhere.

 

[BenStark]

Lauren Boobert?

 

What's in a name

[Dcheech]

Grabbing the groceries in a theatre? I think you’ll find she was searching for Hunter Biden’s laptop, on behalf of the American People.

Not if they want to claim and hold the moral high ground.

 

If you are a christian, there is a saying in a book that runs along these lines

 

" Let him (or her) who is without sin cast the first stone".

 

Only those who are faultless have the right to pass judgment upon others (implying that no one is faultless and that, therefore, no one has such a right

to pass judgment).

 

Alternatively from the same book comes this,

 

Matt. 7 Verses 3 to 5
[4] Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye? [5] Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.

 

Now, right or wrong, don't complain when the stones you throw came back on you.

 

If you are buddhist it is called karma.

I have noticed a tendency for politicians to forget the proliferation of cameras these days. They swear they didn't do it then a video appears showing they did it. Perhaps lying is so natural they think they can get away with it. Sad.

Sounds like an upcoming Republican campaign slogan....

 

"Vote for us. We're brainless boobs who love Trump."

 

 

But we're definitely NOT trashy....

Although I doubt the ‘screwed up’ bit, she’s simple showing what she really is, trash.

Not sure! MAGA voters have even been able to elect a dead pimp before!

She screwed up.  I would say resignation from Congress would be the dignified thing to do. But probably wont happen.

Hopefully you are right, if she doesnt decide to resign or at least not run for re-election. I wonder if she was like this always, or is it the malignancy of the Sodom on the Potomac experience starting to shine through. There are far too many stories of Congresscritters behaving as if they were above the law and having DYKWIA moments. It needs to be nipped in the bud. 

Mitigating much? "Screwed up"? That could mean she just made an error. Pretty hard to make a case that she engaged in anything but a bald-faced lie.

And then you broach a claim that maybe she wasn't like this until she came to Washington  Assigning some of that blame elsewhere?

For someone so eager to vociferously condemn the behavior of those whose politics you disagree with, you seem remarkably subdued in your evaluation of Boebert's conduct.

[TallGuyJohninBKK]

Boebert -- Republican Party MAGA poster woman:

 

--arrested and charged multiple times for minor criminal offenses prior to running for office.

 

--pregnant at age 18 and a high school dropout.

 

--Now a 36-year-old grandmother

 

Lauren Boebert is now a 36-year-old grandmother after her teenage son fathered a boy with his girlfriend

 

""Now my son, when I approached him and told him, 'Tyler, I'm going to be a 36-year-old grandmother,' he said, 'Well, didn't you make Granny a 36-year-old granny?' 'I said, 'Yes, I did.' He said, 'Well then, it's hereditary.'"

Not at all. Maybe we have different ideas about what "screwed up" means- to me it means a remarkably stupid and egregious mistake. She deserves fully whatever is coming. As with so many things, the coverup attempt just makes things worse. Which is why I suggested that she do the honourable thing and resign. Wouldn't do that if it was just an "oopsie".

Again you're mitigating. There are all kinds of mistakes. Some are innocent. What she did was blatantly lie.

True. AOC might not be a bad option, but the Democrats are genuinely thin on the ground in the 'hottie' department.

[TallGuyJohninBKK]

This may seem strange, and the news reports don't seem to say much about it, but at least one source I'm reading says vaping in indoor public areas is illegal in Colorado.

 

Current status as of 2023

"Colorado’s vaping laws continue evolving but include strict regulations as of 2023:

...

• Indoor vaping bans for nicotine products in all public spaces, workplaces, transit, etc."

Fines and Penalties in Colorado

Colorado has implemented fines and penalties for violating vaping laws:

...

"Public vaping in prohibited indoor areas results in fines around $500 per infraction."

 

https://www.coloradoclassic.com/are-vapes-legal-in-colorado/

 

So, if the above is correct, what Boebert and her date were doing wasn't just rude and inconsiderate (ignoring the complaints of a pregnant woman sitting nearby), but also in violation of Colorado law.

 

"Surveillance video captured during the "Beetlejuice" musical in Denver appears to show Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) vaping inside the theater, which contradicts her claim that the smoke was emitted from fog machines."

I’m not sure ‘hottie credentials’ are what motivate Democrat voters.
