He never actually says her name.

Well, the DUI was something. But most of those are like failure to appear, failure to respond, just failure to do anything at all.

Seriously, Boebert is an offence to the great state of Colorado, and a shame to western slope voters who blindly voted for such a moron.

(3,220 posts)Gun-toting Lauren just assumed, probably with a certain amount of pride, that she was the named conspirator and reacted to the letter the way any dumb bunny would by using the anger of the opposition to strengthen her position with her moronic constituency as a tough little American patriot beset by communists in Government -- and get campaign contributions from them so she could continue her neo-nazi grifting for a second, third and more terms.
Unfortunately, because shes dumb, she was unable to realize that she was pointing a finger at herself, unwittingly* announcing to the sane and sober part of the world that, yep, it was her.
*witless wonder that she is, I mean.

Now, if the so far unverified speculations were true that her mother participated and gave them info as well, that would be the icing on the cake.

Mother goes by name Shawn Bentz sometimes and Shawn hyphenatedname-Bentz
I think it is her mother.
1) Many facial similarities
2) She was give "detailed tour of Congress" when Boebert was sworn in. Jan 3, I think, not the 5th.
3) Her sunglasses are the same. Note the whitish bit on the side near the front.

I'm sure I've seen a much better photo of her with those sunglasses, not at the riot, but I haven't been able to locate it.

(26,113 posts)These are her folks, she was live tweeting Nancy Pelosi's location and it appears still brought a gun to the House, even after the metal detectors were installed. She also live tweeted 1776 when she was in lockdown & the doors were being threatened. She is guilty, along with Kim, Gosar, Blunt (MO), and most likely Hawley and Cruz as well. These seditionists need to be held accountable. Hope the FBI doesn't ignore them and actually investigates and they can be charged and removed.

(3,468 posts)Remember when Hillary made the comment that Vladimer had chosen his candidate for this cycle and referred to his choice as "she". Tulsi immediately got all bent out of shape. Problem was, all Hillary did was use the feminine pronoun, and there were 4 women still in the race. None of the others felt insulted, because they knew it wasn't them, and probably felt the same way. I know I did.
I love it when fools out themselves.

(3,468 posts)Have no idea what the attraction was, and still is. Plus there were also the trolls who were here just to stir stuff up. But to each his or her own, I guess. We seem to have a pretty healthy mix of thought and beliefs here.
BTW, I LOVE Swalwell! Our next generation is SO impressive. I can really see him on the ticket, more than likely as VP, by 2028, if not 2024. I really think that Joe will serve one term, get this ship of state righted again, and then hand the tiller to Kamala. Our bench is primed and ready to go.
