It already didn’t look great for Lauren Boebert when she got kicked out of a Denver theater for being disruptive during a performance of the Beetlejuice musical — or when video emerged of the voluble Republican congresswoman being escorted out of the theater. But that was hardly the end of this saga. A second video showed Boebert vaping in front of a pregnant woman, who claimed that the lawmaker refused to stop doing so when asked. The story really went nuclear when a third surveillance video leaked, showing that Boebert and her date were getting awfully comfortable with each other during the show.

Unfortunately for Boebert’s campaign to rebrand as a normal lawmaker, more juicy details keep coming out. Boebert — who has condemned drag shows in the past — was co-groping at Beetlejuice with an Aspen bar owner whose establishment hosts drag shows and participates in an event called Aspen Gay Ski Week. “I learned to check party affiliations before you go on a date,” Boebert told TMZ, although the pair have been reportedly seeing each other for months now.

In an interview with OAN, Boebert, who has been arrested four times, said that she is “very known for having an animated personality.” But the private incident in public is having a big impact on her professional life, distracting from her effort to impeach President Biden. Days after the incident, she was removed from the list of speakers for the Texas Youth Summit later this month.

At least she has her defenders. In a long Facebook post published Monday, Boebert’s ex-husband, Jayson, said he shared the blame for the incident, claiming that his acts of cheating “broke her down.” While it’s odd to have your recent ex-husband come to your defense for getting handsy in public, Jayson Boebert is something of an expert in this realm, having once been arrested for exposing himself to a teenager at a bowling alley.

    That’s because the people want more. We don’t want the grainy boob grope and crotch stroke video. We want the representative on her knees (where she’s her strongest, I hear), taking all 6 hard inches of democrat cock right down her hypocritical throat while vape clouds billow from her nose like some sort of dragon-slut.

      That made me feel so dirty. Like the men that hate black women but love fetish videos of them etc. Sorry the dehumanizing sexual punishment fantasy of a horrible shitty politician is still gross to me. Because ultimately it’s like humiliation and control and the fact that it’s a woman they are “allowed” to hate really is the point. Kind of how AoC has been treated and Greta Thunberg (ok worse cuz a lot of it was when she was a minor)

      Anyway sorry i don’t mean this so much at you directly. Specifically just this sort of common acceptable thing that I think is still shitty but for some reason doesn’t get the same criticism, maybe since it’s less common on liberal side of things.

        I agree, the whole thing was weirdly rapey and gross. She did a gross thing but the fact this person decided the socially acceptable thing to do in response to this was write some weird 1 paragraph rapefix fantasy… and then got a bunch of upvotes for it, is definitely big “ick” vibes.
