Biden Mocks Lauren Boebert For Her Hypocrisy Regarding A Green Energy Project In Her District 

President Joe Biden mocked Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) and other members of the GOP during a speech he made today in Belen, New Mexico, noting that the congresswoman had once opposed a clean energy project being built in her district which he said she is now “welcoming.”

Discussing how his administration is investing in “broader clean energy manufacturing,” the president noted, “It’s going to happen in big cities and rural communities as well. Like in Colorado, CS Wind broke ground on what will be the world’s largest wind tower manufacturing plant.”

Then came the burn on Boebert:

“And coincidentally, CS Wind is in Congresswoman Lauren Boebert, you know that very quiet Republican lady, it’s in her district. Who, along with every other Republican, voted against this bill and is making all this possible. And she railed against this passage.

“But that’s okay. She’s welcoming it now. And when I ran for office, I promised myself, as I promised to be president of all Americans, whether you live in a blue state or a red state, I’m going to keep my promise.”

There was also a jab from Biden aimed at Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL).

“He had railed against this legislation and then I noticed he had a big announcement: ‘Alabama is going to get $200 million.’ And I thought, wait a minute, didn’t you rail against this for a long, long time?”

Dark Brandon is on a roll. He’s sick of the Republican bullshit and he’s going to keep calling them out for it.

Lauren Boebert Asked Jewish Americans Visiting The US Capitol If They Were Doing ‘Reconnaissance’

A group of Jewish Americans say they were “confused” by remarks Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) made to them when they recently visited the Capitol to speak with a member of Congress.

BuzzFeed News reports:

Members of the group, which was meeting with Rep. Tom Suozzi, were wearing yarmulkes, and the person coordinating the group is Orthodox, with a traditional beard.

One witness said the group, along with other members of Congress, was waiting for an elevator. When the doors opened, Boebert stepped out of the elevator and looked the group of visitors “from head to toe,” the witness said. Boebert then asked if they were there to conduct “reconnaissance.”

“When I heard that, I actually turned to the person standing next to me and asked, ‘Did you just hear that?’” a rabbi who was with the group told BuzzFeed News.
“You know, I’m not sure to be offended or not,” the rabbi said. “I was very confused.” The rabbi added that “people are very sensitive” now, especially after what happened in Texas this past weekend, when an armed man held four people hostage at a synagogue.

When asked about her disgusting comments, Boebert — who has been accused of bringing insurrectionists into the Capitol just hours before the January 6 insurrection — said she was just repeating what Democrats had said to her:

“I saw a large group and made a joke. Sadly when Democrats see the same they demonize my family for a year straight.
“I’m too short to see anyone’s yarmulkes.”

Even if the person was the same height? Sure, Lauren.

Rep. Suozzi said Boebert’s comments were unacceptable:

“The bottom line is that everyone, especially members of Congress, have to be very, very thoughtful in the language they use. Because when you’re a member of Congress, you have an important role to play in society. You can’t be cavalier in the comments you make especially if they could be perceived as being antisemitic, or discriminatory.”

However, as we’ve seen on numerous occasions with Lauren Boebert, she isn’t the least bit thoughtful and frequently says things that prove her own bigotry and bias. She’s a cancer on Congress and needs to be removed from office.

Lauren Boebert Tried To Throw Shade At Rachel Maddow And Got Her A*s Handed To Her

Republican Colorado Congresswoman Lauren Boebert has owned herself once again with a moronic tweet she sent out suggesting that the Biden administration must have “learned about governing” from watching MSBNC host Rachel Maddow’s show.

“Most of the Biden Regime learned about governing from watching Rachel Maddow and it really shows.”

Over the past several months, Boebert has also urged Christians to pray for the death of President Joe Biden and even tried to blame him for the 2020 shutdown of schools across the United States as part of the nationwide COVID lockdown.

As for her attack on Maddow, let’s compare their resumés:

  • Maddow holds a bachelor’s degree in public policy from Stanford University and a doctorate in political science from the University of Oxford.
  • Boebert needed multiple attempts to finally pass her GED high school equivalency exam. She is also a failed small businessperson and married to a man who once exposed himself to underage girls at a bowling alley.

Boebert’s tweet aimed at Maddow is especially ironic when you consider that the Trump administration was regularly on the very same page with Fox News (and vice versa) during Donald Trump’s failed presidency.

The Colorado Republican’s tweet was immediately swarmed with reminders of recent history and her lack of awareness.

WATCH: Jamie Raskin Humiliates Lauren Boebert By Quoting Donald Trump

Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) masterfully countered lies told by Republican Congresswoman Lauren Boebert of Colorado during a House Oversight Committee hearing, and he did it by using the words of Boebert’s political lord and savior, disgraced ex-president Donald Trump.

Boebert went on an extended rant during the hearing, criticizing mask and vaccine mandates:

“You’re right. President Trump was in office when the COVID virus was released from a lab in China. And he tried to make that very clear that this came from China, and reporters regularly dismissed that.”

There’s just one ENORMOUS problem with Boebert’s “facts” regarding Trump and China during the COVID crisis: They don’t reflect what actually happened or what the failed former president said at the time, as Raskin quickly reminded his Republican colleague.

“I appreciate the gentlelady’s passion. There’s two facts that she should perhaps be alerted to. One is that Donald Trump, on more than 20 different occasions, defended the performance of the Chinese government and specifically President Xi in terms of his treatment of COVID-19 and said he was doing a ‘wonderful job’ and a ‘great job’ and they were working closely and they were constantly in touch.

“So, if there’s a problem with the Chinese government unleashing a virus ― which has not been proven anywhere, but it certainly could be true ― you would have to pin that on your favorite president, Donald Trump, not on Joe Biden.”

Raskin also noted that Trump’s own top adviser on COVID, Dr. Deborah Birx, admitted in her book that her former boss and his feckless policies on the virus led to hundreds of thousands of deaths.

“So you don’t have to believe anybody on the Democratic side of the aisle. That’s Donald Trump’s own special adviser on COVID-19.”

Game, set, and match Jamie Raskin.

Dense Boebert Admits She Needs At Least 5 Days To Read One Piece Of Legislation

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) is not very bright. After all, she needed three attempts before she was finally able to pass the GED exam, which she tries to spin as a positive thing, suggesting that she got a lot more education by having kids at a young age and marrying a man who got caught flashing his penis at underage girls in a bowling alley.

And now Boebert is admitting she’s so intellectually challenged that she needs at least five days to read any legislation before she can vote on it, posting this video online:

Granted, bills should indeed be read, but does it take five days to do that? Perhaps if Ms. Boebert spent less time on Twitter and making appearances on right-wing podcasts, she’d have more time to sit down and actually do her damn job.

Also, if the job is too tough for Lauren, then why in the hell is she running for reelection? Probably because her beloved gun-totin’-themed restaurant, Shooters Grill, has now closed and she needs the money and benefits a government job provides.

But wait a minute! Isn’t Boebert one of those “small government” right wingers who thinks we need to cut back on everything? Apparently that only applies to others, because she damn sure insists on getting paid, courtesy of taxpayers, naturally.

Five days to read legislation? What good will that do when Bobo can’t even prove that she knows how to read in the first place?
