Given she vocally campaigned against it, you’d think Colorado Rep. Lauren Boebert would be in Congress to vote against the debt ceiling bill. However, it turns out she did not show up on Wednesday.
The legislation passed in the House late that day by 314-117. Colorado’s Democratic Reps all voted ‘yes’, as did Republican Doug Lamborn. Rep. Ken Buck ( R) voted ‘no’.
According to CBS, Boebert’s office said that she filed a missing vote form that states she would have voted no.
The Senate approved the legislation last night and it now goes to President Biden’s desk for signing. It extends the government’s borrowing authority until January 2025 and avoids a potential default next week. Pretty important stuff, really.
Instead, Boebert did find time to mark Pride Month in her own, snarky fashion. She posted a tweet yesterday (June 1), stating, “I’m PROUD to be an American!”
She had another dig on her official government account. She claimed “Some of the woke companies that turned their logo into pride flags last June haven’t done it yet this time around. They’ve seen the power of conservative boycotts, and they are running scared. We are so back!”
Some of the woke companies that turned their logo into pride flags last June haven't done it yet this time around.
They've seen the power of conservative boycotts, and they are running scared.
One has to wonder why she is so triggered by LGBTQ people.
The companies caving to the threats of radical right boycotts is a problem. Harvey Milk must be spinning in his grave at how we are suddenly going backwards.
The Biden administration announced the National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism to protect Jewish communities across the US this week.
Biden released a video about the new strategy, saying hate has been “given too much oxygen” in recent years and has fuelled a “record rise in antisemitism.”
But Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert denounced the plan in a tweet to her 2.5 million followers: “When they say stuff like this, they mean they want to go after conservatives.”
(She just admitted conservatives are hateful and anti-semitic. Thanks for the confirmation of what we’ve known all along, you dimwit.)
She’s not only anti-Semitic but letting you know that she’s a racist and White Christian nationalist and supremacist. Otherwise why would she immediate connect “conservatives” to a push to address anti-Semitism, which is a form of racism and religious hatred?
Remember, the same groups and people that Republicans like Boebert support, are the same groups who helped fund the push in Uganda to make homosexuality punishable by death.
Republicans today want non straight, or non white, non Christians dead or completely marginalized.
in 1977, blithering bigot Anita Bryant, the Lauren Boebert and Marge Greene of her day, tried to frame #LGBTQ+ people as “groomers” as part of a national campaign called Save Our Children, and got a face full of karma. It was the end of her career.
( I’m adding this bit if GAYSTORY here for all of the young babies, the up and coming fabulous Gays and Queers of all stripes and colors—we must continue to GROOM AWAY!)
(FYI, Anita is still with us and she reads all her gay fan mail…ask her about Bobo!–her website is hysterical)
Just a reminder: Adam Frisch is running against her again and barely lost last time, in 2022. Barely (500 or so votes.) You can help push him over the line with financial support if you don’t live in the district and cannot vote Bobo out directly.
If I lived in her district I’d vote for Adam, but I live in the Midwest, so I’ll send him a donation. I thought Coloradans were smarter than that — electing an empty-headed slug like her, but I guess they’re not.
Colorado is now a blue state but has deep red pockets. Rural Colorado, especially the parts with few Indigenous people, and some of the suburban areas, are red. Also, Colorado Springs has long been a right-wing evangelical and military hotbed, though they just elected a Black immigrant independent (who’s also an entrepreneur businessperson) over his Repub opponent. So there’s hope for Frisch and others running to the center and left, even in Bobo’s district.
When people don’t show up for a vote, they’re showing their community they don’t care enough about you to show up. THEY make it political instead of thinking of the American public.
Oh, BoBo. Of course he’s’s not your father! He was cute and well, you..not so much.
You are NOT the father: Former WWE star takes DNA test to prove he’s not Rep. Lauren Boebert father after her mother said for years that he was
Lauren Boebert’s mother Shawn Roberts Bentz has long insisted that retired wrester Stan Lane was her daughter’s dad following a short fling in the 1980s
Lane, 69, took a court-ordered paternity test in 1990 which showed he was not Boebert’s father but doubts over the legitimacy were raised
He eventually agreed to take a second test in May and the results proved he was not her father

Not sure if people saw the news that Bobo lied about skipping the Debt Ceiling vote. She actually is captured on camera racing up the stairs of the Capitol building to get onto the House floor to vote, but was told she was too late! Of course she lied about it, thinking that everyone is as stupid and clueless as she is. November 2024 can’t come soon enough for voting her out of there!
“Video Appears to Show Lauren Boebert Sprinting to Make the Vote She ‘Protested’,” Daily Beast, June 4, 2023:
“CNN’s Morgan Rimmer shared the clip, in which she called out to Boebert as she dashed up the stairs. “They just closed it,” Rimmer said. “They closed it?” Boebert responded, before continuing her hustle up the Capitol steps. Evidently, she didn’t make it, prompting her to seemingly spin the miss as an intentional protest. “Deals cut in the dark are why we’re headed to 36 trillion in debt, and I refuse to be a part of it,” Boebert said.”

She needs to contain her husband before she lashes out at the LGBT community!
dbmcvey
I believe, like any good Christian woman, she’s filed for divorce! I’m sure, like Marge Green she has some Washington side piece.
jcool
i was going to send her a card that said “happy divorcing your husband that beats your kids month” but, hallmark……………..
abfab
Her address is 666 Dead End Street, Hicksville. CO. 66666

One has to wonder why she is so triggered by LGBTQ people.

She was shunned by the Lesbians in Kindergarten.

And she’s loaded with semi-automatic weapons ready to shoot anyone who gets in her way.

Exactly, their toxic influence is worldwide.

You put it perfectly, Cam!

abfab, the reference is to the regular election in November 2024

What do you expect from her? She’s an idiot and a Republican…even a monkey can do better than she can.
