Lauren Boebert Urges Christians To Pray For Joe Biden’s Death

It’s been imminently clear for some time now that Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) is one of the dumbest, meanest, and most deplorable human beings currently slithering across the face of the planet.

After all, Boebert has repeatedly attacked LGBTQ Americans, hurled insults at both her Democratic and Republican colleagues in Congress, spread bogus conspiracy theories, and even managed to alienate people she once claimed were friends.

And now we have Boebert on the record urging so-called “Christians” to pray for the immediate death of President Joe Biden.

Patriot Takes shared a video of Boebert remarking:

“We pray for our president. Let his days be few and another take his office. That’s why I filed the articles of impeachment for Joe Biden. Unfortunately, he does have a really good insurance policy named Kamala Harris.”

Boebert is directly referencing a verse from the Bible, a book which she either didn’t read or didn’t fully understand. It’s Psalm 109:8, and it reads:

“Let his days be few; and let another take his office.”

People who are actually Christians (i.e. Pope Francis, former president Jimmy Carter) don’t wish such hateful shit on others. It’s not what Christ taught. Instead, Jesus said:

“Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no commandment greater than these.” (Mark 12: 30-31)

Of course, Boebert doesn’t bother to do as Christ’s teachings tell her to. That’s because she’s a fake Christian who thinks hatred is good and anyone different than her is evil.

The congresswoman got reminded of her faux Christianity on Twitter, where users lit her up for being a disgusting piece of human excrement.

But perhaps it was Mahatma Gandhi who said it best:

Cruz Claims He Can Tell Buttigieg Is Running In 2024 Because He’s ‘Mimicking Obama’s Cadence’

Texas GOP Senator Ted Cruz is convinced that Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg will challenge President Joe Biden for the 2024 Democratic presidential nomination.

Why would Cruz say such a thing? According to him, it’s because Buttigieg has recently been “mimicking” former President Barack Obama’s “cadence” when he speaks.

In a podcast recorded on Sunday, Cruz told his co-host regarding comments Buttigieg made about the Chinese spy balloon:

“Just something I noticed listening to that — did you pick up on Buttigieg’s cadence? He is mimicking Barack Obama.”

Cruz added:

“He’s doing this speed up and pause; speed up and pause. And Buttigieg didn’t use to speak that way. I think he’s getting ambitions of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. And there’s no real mystery about that. But it is a little amazing, given the train wreck he’s presided over at the Department of Transportation for two years, that his ambitions have soared so high.”

David Edwards · Ted Cruz opines on Buttigieg’s cadance ‘mimmicking Barack Obama’

Of course, Ted is also planning to run for president in 2024, and he’s trying to get ahead of his potential rivals if he should happen to win the GOP presidential nomination, which he won’t. Cruz has tried his hand atwinning a nomination to be president, and he failed spectacularly, winding up kissing Donald Trump’s ass even though Trump insulted both his father and his wife.

Sounds like Cruz is still upset at a burn Buttigieg laid on him in June of last year, shortly after the mass shooting at a school in Uvalde, Texas that killed 19 children and two teachers.

When asked about the horrific shooting, Cruz suggested that schools would be safer if they had “one door into and out of the school, which led Buttigieg to retort:

“The idea that us being the only developed country where this happens routinely — especially in terms of the mass shootings — is somehow a result of the design of the doorways on our school buildings is the definition of insanity, if not the definition of denial.”

China Social Media WTF?!

Randy Quaid’s Reaction To The Chinese Balloon Is So Strange That Twitter Users Can’t Stop Laughing

Granted, we’ve known for quite some time now that actor Randy Quaid had jumped the shark and taken to inhabiting the dark world of internet conspiracy theories and other assorted craziness that hides in plain sight in some of the more untraveled corners of social media.

For example, consider this from a profile of Quaid published by Uproxx back in 2014:

Randy and Evi Quaid reportedly believe there is an evil sect of Hollywood trying to kill them. It is the same shadowy organization that killed Heath Ledger, David Carradine, and Chris Penn. This sect is also responsible for extorting millions from their bank accounts, while running them out of the country.

The impetus for the seemingly paranoid descent into madness has several starting points depending on who you ask. Friends and relatives point to the 1989 marriage of the Quaids as the beginning of the end for the Golden Globe winning actor. Others say it manifested back in 2006, when they were approached by law enforcement for disturbing the peace (more on that later). Perhaps, it was when the world became aware of their self-destruction, when Randy was blackballed from a would-be Broadway play for allegedly verbally and physically attacking cast members, among other undignified behaviors reported by those on hand.

Fast forward to today, and feast your eyes on Quaid’s non-sequitur take on the Chinese spy balloon which was downed this afternoon on the orders of President Joe Biden. Hours prior to that action, Quaid tweeted out:

What in the hell does that even mean?! Is it supposed to be humorous, or is he serious? It’s difficult to tell when dealing with the mentally ill.

But we did get something good out of Randy’s bizarro tweet: Social media reaction that is absolutely priceless.

Republicans Want To Rename A Street Honoring The Late John Lewis For Donald Trump

If you were wondering how some Republicans are celebrating Black History Month, consider a piece of legislation introduced this week by two state lawmakers in Tennessee.

Newsweek reports:

State Representative Paul Sherrell and state Senator Frank Niceley sponsored the bill to change the name of a section of John Lewis Way. According to state general assembly records, Sherrell filed the bill on Tuesday. Niceley filed the state Senate version on Wednesday, which fell on the first day of Black History Month.

John Lewis Way was formerly known as Fifth Avenue, however it was renamed after the late congressman in 2020.

Under the bill, part of the street named for Lewis would become President Donald Trump Boulevard. The area they want to rename is located between Dr. Martin L. King Jr. Boulevard and James Robertson Parkway. So not only would John Lewis be dishonored by their disgusting plan, but also Dr. King.

Councilwoman Zulfat Suara, a Democratic member of the Metropolitan Government of Nashville and Davidson County said she will fight the move with every fiber of her being.

“OMG. I have to take a deep breath so as not to swear! What have this state become! Do some just wake up and propose the next thing that comes to mind. This is not how to govern. This is ridiculous. We are going to fight this.”

Tennessee state Representative Justin Jones (D) also criticized the possible renaming of a portion of the street.

“Tennessee Republicans’ bill to change parts of John Lewis Way to Donald Trump Blvd is about more than a street name. It’s spitting on the grave of our ancestor. It’s memorializing hate. Best believe, we’ll fight back.”

Republicans love to brag that they’re the “party of Lincoln.” But if Lincoln were still alive, they’d probably insist that he bow down and worship Trump or be booted from the party.

AOC Has The Perfect Comeback When A GOP Rep. Says Democrats Are Drinking On The House Floor

Since Republicans in the House of Representatives continue to prove that they cannot manage to elect a Speaker, they’re now lashing out at their Democratic colleagues, but it turns out they’re no better at that than they are at picking a leader.

During debate on the House floor Wednesday, Mediaite reports, Rep.-elect Kat Cammack (R-FL) accused Democrats of drinking as they watched the GOP debacle continue for the second straight day.

Refusing to elect McCarthy as Speaker, said Cammack, was tantamount to “stifl[ing] the will of the American people.”

She credited McCarthy for having “done more than anyone in this chamber to secure a Republican majority,” and said they needed to “unify now” to oppose the “liberal Senate” and “Obama’s J.V. Team in the White House.”

“The American people sent a conservative majority to govern this body,” she continued, but “we cannot begin to govern because heck, we can’t even swear in as members of Congress.”

“Diversity of thought” was “a good thing,” and sets Republicans “apart from our friends on the other side of the aisle,” Cammack continued, who “want us divided” and “want us to fight each other.”

And then Cammack casually dropped in her specious accusation:

“That much has been made clear but the popcorn and blankets and alcohol that has come in over there.”

There were loud boos and jeers in response to Cammack’s cheap shot, but perhaps the best comeback came from Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), who replied on Twitter.

“If only! If Dems took a shot every time McCarthy lost a Republican, we’d all be unconscious by now”

At last count, McCarthy had lost FIVE votes to be Speaker, garnering fewer votes than Democratic House leader Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY).

If anyone needs a drink, it’s the House GOP caucus. Maybe if they got rip-roaring drunk they could actually manage to accomplish something. Then again, they’d probably argue over who got the last swig from the bottle.
