25. Do not take Lauren Boebert if you are pregnant or may become pregnant

Tell your doctor if you have any of the following conditions, as Lauren Boebert is not recommended for anyone with a working brain, delicate digestion, self respect, regard for your fellow human beings, an understanding of how the Constitution works as studies have shown that even a rudimentary appreciation for Civics 101 can result in permanent eye roll when exposed to Lauren Boebert. If after taken Lauren Boebert you become dizzy, dehydrated, filled with self-loathing, find yourself wishing for an early death, tell your doctor and stop taking Lauren Boebert immediately as these conditions may be permanent or fatal or fatally permanent.

[underpants]

26. Classic

[Nevilledog]

31. Ha!

[jmowreader]

38. If you have an erection that lasts longer than 4 hours after taking Lauren Boebert...

Seek immediate medical assistance. The accepted treatment for Boebert-induced priapism is emergency penectomy and orchidectomy.

[ProfessorGAC]

45. Outstanding!

[WheelWalker]

50. DUzy!!!

[rustysgurl]

51. This Lauren Boebert -- I'm calling about your car's extended warranty. n/t

[gldstwmn]

56. Who did she piss off so badly

that she needs to run around strapped all the time? She needs to find a good psychiatrist who can help her figure out what she's so afraid of. Of course that may be available to her in a federal lock up.

[lunatica]

63. It's her measuring stick message to males

If your dick is smaller than this you need not apply.

Hey! The dick size reference works both ways!

[central scrutinizer]

74. It's a fashion accessory

[smirkymonkey]

76. +1000

Seriously! What the fuck is wrong with people like this?

[lunatica]

65. The gun must be her strap on dick.

[2naSalit]

68. +1

[Bernardo de La Paz]

33. Boebert already used them as an alibi for her mother. Probably without consulting

Or thought she had more loyalty than she did.

I think it is likely that the alibi Rep Boebert gave for her mother that she was in lockdown in another building with her staff, is a lie.

I think it is likely that her mother is #bullhornlady

[BigmanPigman]

41. Visually, the two look very similar.

Look at the pointy chin. You don't see that too often. You can open a can with it.

[ms liberty]

52. +1 n/t

[Buckeye_Democrat]

2. Hmm... interesting.

My imagination: "No, you have to say that my mother was with you and the other staff the whole time!!"

[Irish_Dem]

6. Don't tell them I asked you to get a floor plan of the Capitol building. nt

[lame54]

11. Just say Blah blah blah 2nd amendment

[Irish_Dem]

13. Just say president ordered me to do it. nt

[lame54]

15. Like Buffalo man and private jet lady

[Buckeye_Democrat]

23. Yeah, who knows at this point.

It's VERY bizarre that she already quit, though.

There's something big happening, out of sight for us atm.

[Irish_Dem]

36. Right you don't quit a good job right after you start unless something is wrong. nt

[greenjar_01]

3. Whuuuut?

[Irish_Dem]

4. What does she know? Did the FBI interview her?

Yes something is up.

[lame54]

7. Telling...

This may be the O.J.'s of political stories

If Bullhorn lady turns out to be her mom this will be scandalous and YUGE

[Irish_Dem]

10. If the bullhorn fits we must convict. nt

[lame54]

14. Was there ever a more apt name for a device?

[sarchasm]

27. Hahaha! good one!

[gldstwmn]

57. Battle axe.

I reserve that one for Sarah Sideshow Sanders though.

[Ohioboy]

47. Good one!

[sprinkleeninow]

60. ...

👍 😆

[lisa58]

9. Thank you - I Want More.... I want more 'Americans' denouncing crazy

And standing up for Truth

[NRaleighLiberal]

17. who would want any association with that loose cannon (loose glock?)

[magicarpet]

18. Bang bang Barbie,....

Boebert's communications director was likely afraid she might get shot between the eyes if her boss got angry, so quit.

[struggle4progress]

19. "I could be attacked by a mob, shot by the member, get bloody diarrhea from pork sliders, or

just spend more time with my family. This was a very tough decision! I have been honored to serve here and want to wish you all good fuckin luck"

[George II]

20. One of her interns was forced to resign yesterday by his PARENTS!!! I think they were worried....

....about security and violence.

[SMC22307]

43. Fuck that little shit - he believes BLM and "ANTIFA" were behind the riots.

[Dem2theMax]

53. He's as insane as Boebert.

[SMC22307]

54. Yep. And his Mommy, too. He's supported Trump since the age of 12 -- he's gone forever.

Think about the kids growing up now and witnessing the insurrection on 1/6 -- new generation of Democrats, I hope.

[Ford_Prefect]

21. Isn't it odd how these committed ultra-conservatives seem to lose steam when reality starts to bite?

[COL Mustard]

22. The Former Comms Director Is Named Ben Goldey

[FakeNoose]

24. Further info from the same article (Axios)

Between the lines: Boebert is a strident Trump supporter firmly on the right flank of the House GOP caucus. She was clear about her views during her campaign, but they have suddenly become politically toxic following last week's attack.

Boebert’s quickly become a lightning rod by railing against “fraudulent” votes for Biden in a floor speech ahead of the attack, and by making a show — including in an ad filmed on the Hill — of her desire to carry a handgun in the Capitol.

Goldey, by contrast, has a more establishment pedigree. He was the press secretary at the Department of Interior until this year, and previously worked for Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.

Hmmmm...

[ananda]

28. So how did he end up with a cretin like Boebert?

I would think he would have more of a choice with
his credentials.

Poor guy.

[ProfessorGAC]

46. Put There As A Handler?

Then realized there were better ways to make a living?

[ananda]

75. Possibly

That would make sense, I guess.

She ended up being the glock kiss of death...

[gldstwmn]

59. He couldn't keep the coffee orders straight.

[jmowreader]

39. A slight correction

Boebert is the most right-wing member of the House Republican Caucus.

And as for the handgun...I admit that a pistol is the perfect accessory when you're in a dress and heels and your hair and makeup is perfect, but it needs to stay in the car when you're inside a government building.

[cp]

29. Boobie isn't a "firebrand," she's a gun-fondler.

Hope her political career is short, about a week.

[sanatanadharma]

30. About "Bullhorn Lady", Lauren was heard to say* and then it all went south

* "She is no lady, and neither is my Mom"

[ad121rome]

32. As Rod White would say,

She has the right to remain silent, but not the ability.

[sdfernando]

34. The smarter ones see the writing on the wall

they jump ship early to try to avoid the impeding fallout.....but he still signed on the trip so not THAT smart.

[Cha]

35. Oh & Screw you, Gaslighting, Full of Shite

Seditionist Boebert

[sprinkleeninow]

64. Poetic.

😄

Aloha e kuʻu ipoJ! 😍

🙏 💙🗽🇺🇸

[Cha]

67. lol.. Boebert especially

pisses me off.. my home State is Colorado. Somehow that gets to me more when some Moronic Idiot like Boebert is representing any part of it.

Aloha, Spink! 💙

[sprinkleeninow]

70. Not still there, are ye? C'mon over chere an' we do good trouble. 😇

😘

Edit: You not there. I knew dat. Whaasamatter w/me. 🙃

[Cha]

71. I've lived in a Lot of states since

being born & raised in Denver.. but you never forget your first one.

[sprinkleeninow]

72. I been in Calif. and Vegas. Different atmosphere than East Coast. They missing me. Beckoning

for me to come back!

💞

[Cha]

73. I bet they are!💙

[Blue Owl]

37. Sucks to be Q-bert

[Buckeye_Democrat]

62. Good nickname!

Combination of Qanon and her name. I'm surprised nobody else replied to your post yet!

[JDC]

40. She is a complete train wreck.

[BusyBeingBest]

42. Maybe she offered him some of her cooking.

[DinahMoeHum]

44. Seems Ben Goldey saw the writing on the wall. . .

. . .and decided that working with/for Bang Bang Barbie would be a black spot on his resume.

[JohnnyRingo]

48. Probably just wants to spend more time with anyone else.

This woman could be a career ender for staff members, especially a spokesperson.

[NBachers]

49. Will he include this regrettable mistake on his resume? It's got to be a blot on his career.

[BobTheSubgenius]

55. That decision took a suprisingly long time.

Unless it just hadn't been made public before.

[OMGWTF]

58. Unconfirmed, but Pink Blowhorn Lady might be Shawna Bentz, Lauren Bobert's mom.

I saw photos of both and they look like the same person to me. Someone on Twitter named Squishy Pines tweeted that she worked with Shawna at Shooter's in Rifle, CO (the bar that Bobert owns) and that she has a very distinctive voice; she'd bet $ it's her. Stay tuned.

[ClusterFreak]

61. That's nice.... I guess...

But what exactly the fuck type of person did you think Lauren Boebert was when you took the job in the first place?

Rat, meet sinking ship.

[llashram]

66. working for a traitor

does have its downside ex-communication director. Working for and seditious insurrection enabler must suck for those with a conscience. Especially if it turns out your traitorous ex-boss was tweeting positions of Democratic members who were in danger from the mob to member of the mob. What's with that? Wanting to be culpable in more murders? Screaming they were going to hang Pence, what in the hell do you think that blood-thirsty mob would have done to a Democrat such as Pelosi?

Oh well, your ex-boss outed herself openly and without equivocation. No doubts here, she a part of a racist fascist movement in America that is shit from the bottom of my shoe...
