2022 Midterms

Lauren Boebert Is The Symptom, Not The Disease

Censuring the freshman congresswoman won’t change the fact that the bigotry she espouses has deep support within the GOP.

“We see you Muslim, sand nigger bitch. We know what you’re up to. You’re all about taking over our country. Don’t worry, there’s plenty who would love the opportunity to take you off the face of this fucking earth. You fucking Muslim piece of shit, you jihadist, we know what you are. You are a fucking traitor. You will not live much longer, bitch, I can almost guarantee you that.”

There are now two videos available of Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) telling a made-up story of encountering Ilhan Omar (D-MN) in a Capitol Hill elevator. Who knows how many times she has told the same tale and not been recorded.
