That arrangements were made for a quick G.E.D. before she ran? Not to mention her prior arrests for drunken violence.

Boebert: “Second Amendment Isn’t About Hunting, Except Hunting Tyrants, Maybe”

https://coloradotimesrecorder.com/2020/12/boebert-second-amendment-isnt-about-hunting-except-hunting-tyrants-maybe/33413/



She has to be expelled from Congress, she is a clear and present danger, as is that POS Marjorie Taylor Greene, who is STILL pushing CRAZY conspiracy theories daily.

But in this America, that's more than enough to get a solid voting base of fellow kooks, crackpots and extremists idolizing her lack of any real accomplishments.
