Lauren Boebert Under Investigation For ‘Domestic Violence’

Controversial Colorado Congresswoman Lauren Boebert (R) is once again in the headlines, this time for allegedly striking her ex-husband, Jayson, and is under police investigation for the crime of domestic violence.

Roger Sollenberger of The Daily Beast reports the incident took place in a Colorado restaurant on Saturday evening.

The Silt Police Department confirmed an “active investigation” in a phone call Saturday night, but would not comment further. A Boebert aide told The Daily Beast that no one was arrested.

According to the aide, on Saturday, Jayson Boebert had called the police to the Miner’s Claim restaurant in Silt, claiming that he was a “victim of domestic violence.” The aide emphasized that Lauren Boebert denies any allegation of domestic violence on her part, and that the events as depicted in social media posts on Saturday were not accurate.

The social media reports referenced were first made via posts from the anti-Boebert Super PAC “American Muckrakers,” who spelled out exactly what is alleged to have taken place between the Boeberts.

The congresswoman addressed the matter on Sunday in a statement.

“This is a sad situation for all that keeps escalating and another reason I’m moving. I didn’t punch Jayson in the face and no one was arrested. I will be consulting with my lawyer about the false claims he made against me and evaluate all of my legal options.”

Boebert’s reference to “moving” is her plan to change districts so the she can more easily win reelection.

An aide to the congresswoman attempted to downplay the incident, but also provided some interesting details regarding what her boss alleges happened.

In the early evening on Saturday, the aide said, it was already getting physical. Lauren Boebert had driven to her ex-husband’s house to pick up one of her sons for dinner at her mother’s house. Jayson Boebert was home, the aide said, and as Lauren Boebert and her son were leaving for the car, he tried to move in close to hug her; she put her hand on his chest to keep him back, the aide said.

As Lauren Boebert described it, the aide said, she tried again to keep him back and in the process “put her hand in his face, put her hand on his nose.”

The aide also alleges that Jayson Boebert was “being disrespectful,” “being an asshole,” and getting “lewd.”

Jayson Boebert “made a motion” towards his ex-wife, “to grab her.” It was “an aggressive move, not romantic,” the aide relayed.

The ex-husband sounded contrite, telling a reporter:

“I made a mistake. We both overreacted. I only want what’s best for [the] boys and I still love her very much. We both share some hurt deep down inside … It seems we just keep pushing each other further apart.”

“I want the best for her,” he added. “It’s probably just best that I remain silent.”

What neither of the Boeberts bothered to explain is that this is simply how white trash acts. Granted, it’s ugly and makes most people cringe in revulsion, but you can’t expect any better from lowlifes.
