Rachel Vindman reminded us that Boebert is garbage half an hour before she tweeted her disgusting response to Zelensky. But even knowing Boebert is garbage, her smug, smiling viciousness is still unbelievable.

Colorado's Attorney General has referred a complaint to the Department of Revenue and Colorado Department of Labor and Employment over the use of campaign money by U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Silt, for mileage claims.
The complaint, filed by a group called American Muckrakers PAC, alleged that Boebert used campaign dollars to pay off tax liens on her Rifle restaurant.

The FEC dismissed the claim but evidently the state is pursuing the complaint. So she might keep her trap shut when it comes to issues around spending.
I hope the url I posted in the big white space above is visible. I can't see it but it's there.

I've from Colorado and I've been following this closely.. and thinking about the same as you've stated about him!
I watched some of his interviews on DU and he's a really good guy! Funded most of his own campaign, too.
TY!

(46,166 posts)About the time the votes were being counted and it looked like he would lose there was talk about "next time" and he didn't deny it. He sounded interested to me. And it made sense because of how close it was.
She has two years to get more assholery under her belt. We're ready to start donating to him again. She's such an embarrassment to the state.
Tomorrow I'll send her a note thanking her for not embarrassing Colorado tonight like she did during the State of the Union. And to stick a cork in her yap about Ukraine.

There's still the SOTU coming up and I've been thinking about whether she and her now ex idiot blaster will show Off their insulting Stupidity again?

(46,166 posts)She has to have learned something from her narrow victory. Pulling that crap once didn't go under the public radar. Twice will cause a big stir.
I'm sorry you're not here. But, oh my, you're in a gorgeous place!

(2,331 posts)That isn't how Military aid works. Very little of it is actual cash.
American weapon makers make the weapons and we pay for it and give it to them.
