‘Ghoulish’ Lauren Boebert Slammed For Tweet Mocking Alec Baldwin After Tragedy On Movie Set

Less than 24 hours after actor Alex Baldwin accidentally shot and killed award-winning cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of the movie “Rust,” Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) posted a hateful, tone-deaf tweet making light of the situation and attacking Baldwin.

Boebert referenced a tweet Baldwin sent seven years ago in the aftermath of the police shooting of Michael Brown, an 18-year-old black man who was gunned down by a police officer in Ferguson, Missiouri.

Even though the two events are not even vaguely similar, Boebert sent out this tweet:

Reaction on social media was immediate. Even former Trump White House Director of Strategic Communications Alyssa Farah was disgusted by Boebert’s attempt to use a tragedy in order to score cheap political points:

 

Democratic Congressman Ruben Gallego (AZ) also lit into Boebert:

Twitter Erupts With Mockery After Trump Launches A Social Media Platform He Calls ‘TRUTH Social’

Not content to have already destroyed his own real estate company, the Trump Organization — which is under criminal investigation in multiple jurisdictions — failed, one-term, twice-impeached former President Donald Trump has now decided to launch a social media platform that he believes can compete with Facebook and Twitter, both of which have banned him for his lies about the 2020 election.

Trump made his announcement of the new Trump branded platform (which he’s calling “TRUTH Social”) via his spokesperson, Liz Harrington, who unfortunately hasn’t been kicked off Twitter:

“We live in a world where the Taliban has a huge presence on Twitter, yet your favorite American president has been silenced.”

Actually, the Taliban and Donald Trump have a lot in common, but we’ll leave that discussion for another day.

First of all, just the fact that Trump is calling this TRUTH Social is the height of both hypocrisy and irony. The man doesn’t believe in truth; his every word is a lie.

Also, when you consider that every business the Donald has ever been a part of has either gone bankrupt or is facing indictment, the so-called Trump Media & Technology Group seems destined for a quick collapse. In six months time, it’ll probably be tossed onto the same heap of failure as Trumps steaks, Trump airlines, Trump vodka, and Trump University.

The vast majority of Twitter users who know how to follow the Terms of Service for the platform Trump is so jealous of were only to happy to mock Donnie for his latest harebrained scheme:

Trump Spits On The Memory Of Colin Powell With Disgusting Statement On His Passing

Even though he waited 24 hours before commenting on the death of former Secretary of State Colin Powell, who died of COVID complications on Monday, failed, one-term former President Donald Trump made sure to trash Powell’s legacy in a statement he issued through his spokesperson, Liz Harrington.

“Wonderful to see Colin Powell, who made big mistakes on Iraq, and famously, so-called weapons of mass destruction, be treated in death so beautifully by the Fake News Media. Hope that happens to me someday. He was a classic RINO, if even that, always being the first to attack other Republicans. He made plenty of mistakes, but anyway, may he rest in peace.”

Of course, Donald Trump has never made any mistakes. At least, not in his deranged mind. He mishandled the response to COVID, threatened our allies, praised murderous dictators such as Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong-un, and has been accused of sexually assaulting dozens of women, yet he has the nerve to slag a true American hero who served his country with honor and distinction.

Reaction to Trump’s hateful statement was immediate:

Fox News Social Media WTF?!

Tucker Carlson Gets Crushed Online After He Mocks ‘Breastfeeding’ Buttigieg For Taking Paternity Leave

You probably recall that back in July, while he was on vacation in Montana, Fox News host Tucker Carlson was approached by a man named Dan Bailey who told him to his face:

“You are the worst human being known to mankind. I want you to know that.”

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bzGGzkCpI0

And now, yet again, Carlson has proved that he is indeed the worst human being known to mankind for comments he made about Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg taking family leave since he and his husband, Chasten, recently adopted twins.

On his show Thursday evening, Carlson not only chided Buttigieg for taking leave (which he’s entitled to under the law), but he also decided he’d toss in a line about how he wondered if “breastfeeding” had worked out.

What in the hell is that all about? Is Carlson just trying to let his audience know he hates Buttigieg because he’s gay, or is he suggesting that two men shouldn’t be allowed to adopt?

Whatever Carlson’s point was, his comments were met with anger and disdain on Twitter:

UPDATE: Secretary Buttigieg responded to Carlson during an appearance on “Deadline: White House, remarking:

“I don’t think that even speaks for most people, on the other side of the aisle from the party that I belong to. This is largely a consensus issue, not just the support for families like mine to have a right to marry and right to be treated equally, but also that families in general. Moms and dads have to be able to support their children including with paid leave.”

GOP GOP Whining Joe Biden Social Media U.S. Senate

Ted Cruz Attacked Biden For Going On ‘Vacation’ – That Was A Cancun-Sized Mistake

Ted Cruz may well be the least self-aware person in all of Washington, and as a result he continually tries to attack others on social media but only winds up owning himself in absolutely humiliating fashion.

This time, Cruz saw a tweet online from the GOP that chided President Joe Biden for going on “vacation,” which is not exactly the proper word for the president going back to his home state of Delaware for the long Columbus Day weekend.

What the GOP didn’t mention are the endless golfing vacations failed former President Donald Trump took and charged taxpayers for. Trump played more golf in four years than Arnold Palmer did in his entire life.

Trying desperately to attach his name to the GOP tweet, Cruz thought he’d attempt a jab at President Biden while also sliding in a bit of self-deprecating ribbing for himself.

You probably recall that back in February, as the state of Texas was suffering under a terrible winter storm, Cruz and his family boarded a flight for the Mexican resort. Cruz later blamed the entire thing on his children.

But he can’t blame anyone but himself for the online payback he got for his posting:

Next time you’re tempted to tweet, Ted, stick your head up your ass instead. Oh, never mind; I see it’s permanently implanted there.
