Congresswoman says Democrats want to ‘protect themselves’ with security fences, despite events of 6 January

Lauren Boebert has come under fire for an attack advert against Nancy Pelosi – with shooting sound effects included.

The advert, released by the Colorado congresswoman on Tuesday, immediately drew criticism for featuring shooting sound effects at the end.

It calls on Ms Pelosi, the speaker of the House, to “tear down” the security fence that currently circles the US Capitol Building.

It has been there since supporters of former president Donald Trump besieged the complex on 6 January, threatening the lives of Ms Pelosi and other Democratic members of Congress.

“What exactly are you trying to convey? The deadly insurrection was only two months ago”, wrote a Twitter user. “Why do you want to remove the perimeter around the Capitol so soon?”

Another user asked: “Why is there a sound gunshot at the end of your video? Was that a threat to Speaker Pelosi?”

If anything bad happens to Speaker Pelosi, Boebert needs to be charged as an accessory.
