Lauren Boebert Gets A Twitter Slap Down When She Calls Joe Biden ‘A Compromised Politician’

Much like her political hero, failed, one-term, twice-impeached former President Donald Trump, Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) clearly doesn’t bother to read her tweets before she hits the “send” button.

Evidence of that was on full display Thursday when Boebert decided she’d attack President Joe Biden and his son, Hunter, even though the Justice Department just announced that Hunter paid his taxes and didn’t break any tax laws.

However, the Colorado Republican decided to focus on a laptop that the president’s son once owned, as reported by the New York Times:

“People familiar with the investigation said prosecutors had examined emails between Mr. Biden, Mr. Archer and others about Burisma and other foreign business activity. Those emails were obtained by The New York Times from a cache of files that appears to have come from a laptop abandoned by Mr. Biden in a Delaware repair shop. The email and others in the cache were authenticated by people familiar with them and with the investigation.”

That led Boebert to tweet out this:

Joe Biden is a compromised politician? Sure, Lauren, we can admit it right after you admit that Donald Trump, his family, and his company are all compromised by their connections to Russia.

Don’t bother holding your breath waiting for that admission from Ms. Boebert. After all, she thinks the ex-president is honest, trustworthy, and a great businessman.

The social media slap down of Boebert was immediate:

How wonderful the world would be if everyone could read and comprehend at the same time.

Marjorie Taylor Greene Demands That Ukraine Surrender: ‘They Cannot Possibly Win!’

Just a few hours after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky spoke to a joint session of Congress, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) went on Facebook Live and demanded that Ukraine surrender to their Russian invaders.

Greene began by claiming that President Joe Biden shouldn’t have sent in military aid to Ukraine that he announced on Wednesday:

“If we truly care about suffering and death on our television screens, we cannot fund more of it by sending money and weaponry to fight a war they cannot possibly win! The only effect of more arms and more money from America will be to prolong the war!”

The Georgia Republican added that the United States was giving the Ukrainian people “false hope about a war they can’t win.”

Greene concluded her remarks by saying that she wants to halt all arms shipments to Ukraine because “as a Christian” she doesn’t want to “produce any more human suffering.”

Greene’s video posting drew a response from fellow Republican Liz Cheney (WY):

It’s hard to tell if Greene is really this stupid or on the Kremlin payroll. Of course, it’s certainly possible that both are true.

Georgia GOP Senate Candidate Herschel Walker Says Evolution Is Bogus Because ‘There Are Still Apes’

According to Georgia Republican Senate candidate Herschel Walker, the theory of evolution is bogus because apes and humans currently coexist on the planet.

Walker made his remarks during an appearance at a Georgia church over the weekend, HuffPost reports:

“At one time, science said man came from apes, did it not? … If that is true, why are there still apes? Think about it.”

https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=3560&v=JqTuB1wzC8w&feature=emb_logo

Yeah, think about it. Because it’s quite clear that Walker didn’t give it much thought.

Evolution doesn’t say that humans evolved from the apes that are found at the zoo. Instead, both humans and apes have a common ancestor that walked the Earth about 10 million years ago.

Humans are also technically classified as apes, but that doesn’t mean the chimp you see at the zoo is just one evolutionary step from being fully human. And there’s nothing that prohibits apes and humans from coexisting at the same time. If there was, then one of the two species wouldn’t be here.

Walker went on to try and prove his thesis about why God is necessary for all creation by saying that science “can’t do” the “conception of a baby.”

“They’re still trying to do that, but they can’t, because there has to be a God.”

Does there have to be a God for in vitro fertilization? If so, is he found in the test tube or the contents of that glassware? And if God is in everything, how to explain the existence of evil people such as serial killers, genocidal dictators, and cult leaders?

Amazingly, Walker is currently in the lead in a head-to-head matchup with current Georgia Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock, who just so happens to be an ordained minister and could probably quote the Bible a lot more fluently and accurately than Walker, whose claim to fame is that he used to play professional football and won the Heisman Trophy in 1982.

Chairman Of Georgia Republican Party Gets Busted Posting Russian Propaganda On Twitter

David Shafer, who serves as Chairman of the Georgia Republican Party is in very hot water with others members of the GOP for tweets he sent out that have been deemed “Russian propaganda.”

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports that Shafer quoted a tweet from the Kremlin which was critical of a UN resolution that had been introduced by Russia:

Shafer’s tweet Sunday questioned why the U.S. and Ukraine voted against the resolution, which was critical of Nazism. He mused that Biden and Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky “fell into a somewhat obvious trap” by opposing it.

If Shafer had bothered to do 30 seconds of research on the internet, he would have discovered that the Trump administration also voted against the Russian UN resolution:

The U.S. has voted against the Russia-backed U.N. resolution each time it has come up since 2005 – including during former President Donald Trump’s administration in 2019 and 2020.

U.S. officials say the resolutions are “thinly veiled attempts to legitimize Russian disinformation campaigns denigrating neighboring nations.”

GOP committee member Jason Shepherd said he is calling for a formal censure of Shafer as a result of the tweets:

“He is supposed to speak for all Republicans. Obviously he is speaking for a very fringe part of the Republican party that supports Vladimir Putin. Both Republican and Democratic administrations have voted against this resolution. He should have apologized and deleted the tweet. As of now he still hasn’t done that.”

State Senate Majority Leader Republican Mike Dugan echoed Shepherd’s remarks:

“(Anyone) that defends the actions of Putin and the Russian Government and the Ukraine is, to me as lost that what Russia is doing in the Ukraine is reprehensible…There’s no way you can justify it and things going on.”

Shafer was also pilloried on social media for being so eager to push Russian propaganda merely to make political points:

https://twitter.com/iDntGvShtAbtFck/status/1503025006137200642?s=20&t=KSEERzlBOWNDpRfMc92jzw

Shafer should resign in disgrace. But as we’ve learned on countless occasions, Republicans have absolutely no shame, even when they take the side of murdering thugs who bomb children and want to destroy the United States.

Lauren Boebert Calls Kamala Harris Dumb And Winds Up Owning Herself

Proving yet again that she’s not exactly the sharpest knife in the drawer, Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) thought it’d be fun to attack Vice President Kamala Harris and suggest that she’s uneducated and unable to handle the duties of her job.

All Boebert accomplished, however, was drawing attention to her own lack of intelligence as her accusation doubled back and hit her right in the face.

The Colorado Republican tweeted:

“Kamala Harris knows so little about everything that it’s almost impressive.”

No matter your opinion of Harris, her academic credentials are impeccable. She graduated from Howard University and earned her law degree from the Hastings College of Law at the University of California.

Boebert, on the other hand, is a high school dropout and needed three tries before she could earn a passing score on the GED, which she obtained just a few months before she took office.

That was all it took to elicit a thorough online mocking of Boebert for daring to question anyone’s knowledge or education.
