It’s a given that some crazy stuff gets posted on social media. If you doubt that, just take a spin around Twitter or Facebook on any given day and you’ll run across all kinds of head-scratching nonsense that borders on unintelligible and/or vapid.
But a tweet posted by Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) has completely confounded even the most forgiving of social media patrons because it quite simply makes no sense whatsoever.
Here’s an attempt to decrypt that word salad:
Inflation numbers were released, so the first sentence checks out.
But the “tobacco industry being immune from prostitutes being sued” is a complete non sequitur. Where in the hell did that come from, and what does it mean? Do you recall reading anything in the news lately about the tobacco industry being sued by prostitutes or vice versa?
As for “any sort of economic solution,” be sure and note that Ms. Boebert provided no ideas of her own regarding economic policies she thinks might be used to combat inflation.
Twitter users were left shaking their heads to the point of dizziness.
Proving that the biggest snowflakes in the world reside in the Republican Party, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) filed a report with the U.S. Capitol Police on Wednesday because comedian Jimmy Kimmel made a joke about her.
During his monologue on Tuesday night, Kimmel ridiculed Greene for accusing three Republican senators of being āpro-pedophileā because they voted to confirm Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson.
āWow, where is Will Smith when you really need him, huh?ā Kimmel quipped, referring to the actor who slapped comedian Chris Rock onstage at the Oscars last month.
That led Greene to post a tweet announcing that she had filed a report:
Kimmel responded to Greene in brilliant fashion:
Keep in mind that while Greene is suddenly asking the Capitol Police to take her seriously, she was one of 21 House Republicans who voted against awarding the Congressional Gold Medal to members of the force who responded on January 6, 2021 when pro-Trump rioters stormed the seat of government, killing a Capitol policeman.
Others on Twitter also had some choice words for Greene.
Though the vast majority of those who are currently reading this have never heard of Alex Walker, there’s an excellent chance you’ll never forget this name once you see the campaign ad he’s running in Colorado to be the Democratic nominee who faces incumbent Republican congresswoman Lauren Boebert in November.
The video, which has quickly gone viral, The Daily Beast reports, is one of the best examples of edgy political advertising ever attempted by any candidate:
Political newcomer Alex Walker, the latest Democratic challenger to toss his hat into the ring to unseat MAGA-boosting Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO), announced his presence with perhaps the most nauseating campaign ad ever. The two-minute online video that debuted Tuesday starts with a woman getting crushed by a giant pile of feces, followed by other townsfolk trying to avoid a literal storm of shit.
Yes, you read that correctly: A shitstorm. And it’s just as disgusting as you’d expect, but it’s also brilliant and hilarious, and it’s likely to make Alex Walker a household name in the Centennial State, especially when he promises to eliminate her “bullshit” if he’s elected:
Eventually, Walker emerges and picks up a soiled teddy bear before announcing he has joined a crowded race to defeat the mudslinging congresswoman. āWe are real Coloradans. We deserve a living wage, small government that actually works, and freedom of choice,ā he says. āInstead, we have bullshit.ā
The tagline for Walker’s ad is also sure to resonate with voters:
For anyone who has forgotten, here’s some of the bullshit that Boebert has been spewing since she took office:
Shit! The woman is crazy. She needs to be replaced ASAP.
Poor Lauren Boebert. No one takes the Colorado Republican congresswoman seriously because she’s a educationally-challenged clown who barely passed the GED exam shortly after she was elected.
Despite that, many on the right-wing of the GOP love to tout Boebert’s devotion to the Second Amendment and the fact that she’s easy on the eyes, which is always a big deal for male Republicans who can’t get enough of the blonde female hosts on Fox News.
Matter of fact, Boebert just won an award for being the “Hottest Woman in Congress,” which came complete with a gift certificate to Red Lobster and a nice framed certificate. Here, see for yourself:
Lauren Boebar? Must have been a poorly educated Trump supporter who was in charge of printing the certificate.
Based on what she said Wednesday evening during an appearance on One America News (OAN), it’s very clear that Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) has lost what was left of her already defective mind.
According to Greene, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi is using the Capitol police to spy on Republicans in Congress.
Greene said Pelosi is using the Capitol Police to target members of Congress. She cited the allegations made by Rep. Troy Nehls (R-TX), who on Tuesday claimed police had āillegallyā entered his office in November and took pictures. He also said āintelligence agentsā dressed as construction workers returned days later and questioned an aide.
The Capitol Police issued a statement saying, āThe weekend before Thanksgiving, one of our vigilant officers spotted the Congressmanās door was wide open. That Monday, USCP personnel personally followed up with the Congressmanās staff and determined no investigation or further action of any kind was needed.ā
Yet from that unsubstantiated claim from a fellow nutjob member of the GOP caucus, Greene decided to suggest that she and others are being spied on, remarking:
As if that wasn’t bizarre enough, Greene then asserted that Capitol police were also investigating visitors who come to meet with members of Congress:
“Theyāre even checking into people that go to our events outside of outside of Washington. So everything is completely out of control. Not only do we have the D.C. jail, which is the D.C. gulag, but now we have Nancy Pelosiās gazpacho police spying on members of Congress spying on the legislative work that we do, spying on our staff and spying on American citizens that want to come talk to their representatives.”
Gazpacho, it should be noted, is defined as a “cold soup made of raw, blended vegetables.”
Presumably, Greene was attempting to say “Gestapo,” but her brain was too filled with conspiracy theories and other assorted bullshit to process the word correctly.
Greene went on to add this bit of clear incitement to yet another insurrection:
Here’s what’s really going on with all of the Republican complaining and wailing: They’re terrified because they know the House Select Committee has evidence that implicates them in the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. And now they’re imagining how bad it’s going to be when all the evidence is laid before the American public and the Justice Department beings handing down criminal charges.
Oh well, if she’s lucky, Marjorie can always make her some nice ramen gazpacho in federal prison.
