Newly elected Republican Congresswoman/high school dropout vows to carry handgun to Congress

I can believe she might have been trying to make a joke. But the joke is “are you here to do reconnaissance, too?” like she’s looking for her own tour group. What she said was just plain being nasty. And I don’t think she was trying to make a joke, only that it’s not completely implausible she was.

I am beginning to think you get a job in congress because you are incapable of handling yourself in a professional manner so you could work anywhere else. If you pulled that shit at most jobs HR would be rid of you so fast because of the lawsuits and losses the company would potentially have.

You know what they need to do? They need to open up congress people to civil lawsuits of discrimination. Open up the political parties to discriminatory lawsuits too. I bet if they lost money over this shit they would find some people who could act professional.

And now she's claiming the Constitution doesn't evolve and saying that it does spits in the faces of the Founding Fathers.

Y'know, the guys who included a whole segment on how to amend the Constitution over time.

If nothing else, you'd think the fact her most beloved law is called the Second AMENDMENT might have caused a few neurons to fire in the ol' noggin, but nope.

Would you at least explain the tweet for those of us that don't have your erudite understanding of short meaningless blurbs?

Would these be the donations that she used to pay rent and utilities for her failing restaurant, or the ones that she used to "reimburse" herself for an implausible number of travel miles?

Yes.

The thread gets worse.

Well, there you go, its been said out loud, it really is blood sacrifice to the NRA gods.

Colorado to Examine Lauren Boebert’s Mileage Claims and Tax Liens
The state’s attorney general has referred for review a fraud complaint from the group that targeted Representative Madison Cawthorn, in a sign of trouble for the first-term congresswoman.

This is, as the kids say today, "based"

Ted Cruz may have put his penis in her when she was a hooker.

That would be the most honest job she's ever had.

How reliable is this, because it's one of those things that just sounds too perfect tbh

My truthiness spidey sense is tingling...

That’s the Republican group who went after Madison Cawthorn, so…

Let's hope they're two for two...

She should consider herself lucky she didn't get Zodiac Killed.

The reports are saying she was an escort who had two abortions.

Which if true is massive fucking hypocrisy given her political actions.

Requires some strong evidence, but the source seems solid...

Or, as Republicans say, "A day ending in the letter 'y'."

The sourcing on this -- particularly the abortion thing -- is pretty thin.

The stuff about her advertising on a Sugar Baby website is plausible. Presumably some people will analyze the pic to figure out if it's really her, and some others will dig through archives to see if the profile was real.

Does that automatically make her a paid escort? Not enough information there.

The abortion story seems to have a single person as its source. I can buy that the PAC verified that it really was someone who was in a position to know -- likely a former friend, or possibly a since-estranged family member -- but it doesn't look like they verified it independently, so there's no way to know if the source is lying.

Yeah, so this discussion that was previously posted here tends to make me think that the paid escort is very plausible.

Given that Eliot Spitzer got busted for paying big money to have unprotected sex with a prostitute, and that some dude (whom I can't remember) who was tied to the Trump campaign had to resign after he was found to have paid a former Playboy Bunny to have an abortion (and many people suspect that he was covering for Trump), I cannot rule it out.

Not even with your bit.
