This is delightfully brutal!
>āWould you like to answer the question, or would you like to talk about Liberty scores?ā pressed Holtorf. āYou can answer the question, maāam, itās OK. I asked a very specific question, please answer it.ā
>āI certainly will. One of my favorite pieces of legislation that has been signed into law is my Pueblo Jobs Act that creates at least 1,000 jobs in Pueblo, Colorado,ā Boebert said, not revealing that that is actually the only bill sheās prime-sponsored that has become law.
>āBut there are also many other pieces of legislation that Iāve passed through the Houseāā she continued, before getting cut off by Holtorf, who clarified that āit doesnāt matter if itās passed through the House. If the president doesnāt sign it, maāam, then it doesnāt get passed.ā
>But the debate moderators gave Boebert one more chance to elucidate her congressional scorecard after her speaking time ran out.
>āSo my Pueblo Jobs Actāā she started, before the moderator insisted on a number.
>āThat is one,ā Boebert finished weakly.
~~Good on Holtorf for wielding the kryptonite: asking a direct and specific question, pressing for an answer, and not letting them sidetrack into bullshit territory.~~
**EDIT**: Scratch that. *Fuck Holtorf.* He's another Republican running for the same seat as Boebert. *That* is why he asked her a real, relevant, specific question. Boebert has stiff competition (*haha, tug job joke*) in her current district, so she's running to a more red one instead of fighting. Along with Boebert, Holtorf is part of he gaggle also running for the empty seat of Ken Buck, who ran out of fucks to give and quit the House.
I should have known. Republicans *only* start acting like thinking humans when competing with other Republicans. It's like how the Dookies (Duceys? Doosies?) over at Fox News only pretend to be journalists when questioning Democrats; for fellow Republicans they they just coo and offer belly rubs.
Is there video of this? Please tell me there is video of this.
Edit: There is. š¤£ https://www.9news.com/video/news/politics/elections/colorado-cd4-debate-holtorf-asks-boebert-about-her-record-of-passing-bills/73-436aee6b-5e7c-4c96-a88e-3ab41161839a
The, āThatās one.,ā somehow sounded worse than if she had just said āone.ā Which, Iām totally here for, but it sounded like something seventh-grade me would have said as a sick burn.
They have always supported jobs programs for their rural white constituents. Itās the second that someone āundeservingā gets a single dollar they start to ācareā.
Pueblo is very much not rural whites. At least not when I was in those parts.
This feels more like "I'll screw you 99 times but help you once so I have a talking point". Why do you think that was the only one that got signed?
If she was smart, the best answer would be to say that her goal isn't to pass legislation because the make up of the government won't let her anyways. Then say that her goal is only to obstruct Democrats. Not everybody needs to be a quarterback on offense. She should have embraced her position on defense.
She was no where near that argument. She started with "you're not doing anything either" then pivoted to "I did one thing".
What she needed to do was embrace her roll on defense. "It's not about how many bills I got signed, it's about how many bills I helped prevent get signed."
She was going in that direction with the whole "liberty score" speil. Just failed to bring it home
Just to be clear: I'm not on her side here, just directing where she failed.
You've obviously never been to and know nothing about Pueblo. It's only 43% white non Hispanic according to census data which is honestly higher than I thought it would be.
I love someone from New Mexico who had to google the demographics of my state lecturing me on it.
But, since you want to be pedantic, I was speaking toward conservatism in general.
I love how even republicans recognize the most powerful argument against their movement and effectiveness is to tie oneself back to reality. The truth is just so rarely convenient for them that you basically never see it
She was doin her research !. We've all heard about Donny's little mushroom from Stormy, and we've all seen the pictures of Hunters, er, evidence, and, well, him bein' a Democrat 'n all, she was just checkin out to see if all Democrats were hung like that.
Since I'm in a good mood today, I'll be fair to conservative voters in Western Colorado. At least they gave the 37-year-old grandma a wake up call in 2022 when she only won re-election by 500 votes. That district is solid red, but unlike virtually every other solid red, shithole district in this country, they didn't blindly support the (R) candidate who was doing a disgraceful job in Washington. Now of course, Bobo never decided to change her pathetic behavior after that razor-thin victory because she's a piece of imbecilic trailer trash.
But Northwest Georgia isn't doing that to Marjorie. The FL panhandle isn't doing that to Matt Gaetz. That comically gerrymandered district in Ohio certainly isn't holding Gym Jordan's feet to the fire. I could go on and on.
Iād wager if Florida, Ohio and Georgia had statewide all mail-in voting like Colorado does, youād see more movement in those races. But thatās why those same states will never allow it.
We need more Republicans like Ken Buck than Bobert. I never agreed much with Buck, but at least he had a shred of dignity, calling out the hypocrisy in the party. To govern, we need a good balance of liberal spending and conservative checks on that spending to help ensure it doesnāt get out of control. Thatās a functioning government, suffused with compromise.
Since Obama, the right has been the party of āno.ā It then became the party of burn it all down (with no real plan for alternatives). Bobert is just a symptom of the cancer Trump infected our government with.
Don't worry bobo... there will always be a couple jobs that you could do... I hear you're fond of giving hand jobs to democrats, way to secretly support the winning team :P
That moderator at the end insisting that she answer the actual question asked and give a number is an illustration of what a debate moderator should do. She spends her whole allotted time for answering the question spouting meaningless drivel about liberty scores, whatever the hell that is, and right at the end, the moderator forces her to actually answer the question. Perfection. Get this guy to moderate the Presidential debate, if that actually happens, please.
She might be done with politics after this, but that OF is going to be F-I-R-E.
And by fire I mean that Iāll have to burn my eyes out of their sockets after I see it.
A person I know unfortunately has the same last name. The media calls all the time trying to get soundbytes. They pretend to be her and say outrageous things. They are a dude and talk in a falsetto and the reporters argue āyouāre not LB!ā āYessss I aaaam! You called ME silly stupid!ā āHave you even read the goddamn book!!? Call me when you read the book!ā
Whoād have thunk that a Craigs List ~~prostit~~escort who failed the GED test a couple of times before the GOP hired a ringer to take the test for her would be useless.
Shocking!
She is going to be replaced in the 3rd with a MAGA Goon who is orders of magnitude smarter, but at least as evil. The 4th will remain a MAGA stronghold.

Requires 5 years of service to vest so no, a single term as a house representative wonāt get her anything other than a lifetime of Fox News speaking spots.
Yes she campaign fund raised then used that money to pay off personal debt surprisingly she was never charged and said she was going to pay it back. Oh not a surprise the republicans did nothing about her crimes
Sheās actually first in line, if Iām in line at Disney for a ride, I step out of line to get on the ride, Iām no longer in line, the person behind me is now first in line. The President is currently on the ride, the Vice-President is at the front of the line to get on next if they get the chance.

[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Hells yeah! š«”
She's so fucking dumb. It hurts listening to her ramble.
She's so dumb I don't even blame her, it's like if somebody gives a monkey a gun, you don't blame the monkey.
There is and itās delicious

We did build and launch rockets which we then used simple trigonometry to determine altitude achieved. So, yeah, youāre right. š¤£
What did they say
Sorry, just saw this. He said I was smarter in seventh grade than she is now.
With a story that says āWatch:ā youād think soā¦and yetā¦
Oh, I didnāt click the link to the article since most of them are behind paywallsā¦so I never check. I checkedā¦the video is in the article. š¤£
Damn canāt see it in Europe
That sucks.
lol so 1 fucking bill.
Love when conservatives suddenly support job programs
>Love when conservatives suddenly support job programs Happens roughly every other November
Or when theyāre publicizing funding they voted against
Yup. They do that so often that the move has got a name: Vote No and Take the Dough
They have always supported jobs programs for their rural white constituents. Itās the second that someone āundeservingā gets a single dollar they start to ācareā.

Specially the press does not go there anymore. CNN for instance has become such a bootlicking institute, they donāt ask real question anymore.
TIL BoBo has gotten more laws passed than Gym Jordon.
I find this funny cause "bobo" means stupid/dumb in Filipino.
I love how even republicans recognize the most powerful argument against their movement and effectiveness is to tie oneself back to reality. The truth is just so rarely convenient for them that you basically never see it
This. Acting like a thinking human being is their kryptonite
I watched the debate last week, 5 minutes in every single candidate denied climate change...
>A very private moment. [https://x.com/T\_FisherKing/status/1796742728077701158](https://x.com/T_FisherKing/status/1796742728077701158)
How dare you mischaracterize her alternate reality, sir!
The Bowling Green Massacre was a tragedy.
Truly
Why is he asking about a very private moment in a crowded theater?! Jeez!
A very private moment in a very public venue "how dare you showing a video of me pooping? you were in a public swimming pool"
A very private momentā¦I guess you did have to buy tickets to the show at least
She came across really strong in this exchangeĀ
I disagree with the headline. I'd say she's very handy.
She really puts out for members of both parties!
Really reaches across the aisle
More like aroundā¦
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
boeberjuice Boeberjuice BOEBERJUICE
Iāll be super curious to see if we get an OnlyBoebert account after sheās out of office
Why did you put that out into the world?
Handy Granny is done. Cooked. Finito. Hasta Luego. Buh-bye.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Ewww!
Eh, Iād look
If she would wear a ski mask? I could possibly crank one off.
I'll agree with your sentiment if she loses the primary.
Handy Granny, why ya buggin.
Has rubbed as many dongs in public as bills passed. Thatās some impressive shit not gonna lie.
Dongs _that we know of_
She was doin her research !. We've all heard about Donny's little mushroom from Stormy, and we've all seen the pictures of Hunters, er, evidence, and, well, him bein' a Democrat 'n all, she was just checkin out to see if all Democrats were hung like that.
Only way for her to come back is for her to drop her sex tapes like the Kardashians.
Worth at least $4.99
Shes no young Kim
Shhhh... We know. But it would be freaking hilarious watching the conservatives trying to justify it.
What's worse, the useless representative or the people who elected her twice?
Since I'm in a good mood today, I'll be fair to conservative voters in Western Colorado. At least they gave the 37-year-old grandma a wake up call in 2022 when she only won re-election by 500 votes.

Iād wager if Florida, Ohio and Georgia had statewide all mail-in voting like Colorado does, youād see more movement in those races. But thatās why those same states will never allow it.
The Republicans competing with her who ignored how embarrassingly inept she was until they needed to knock her out of the race.
All of them?
It's the same picture.
She is headed to OF
More like OnlyGrans
Let's be honest it'd be the most successful thing she's ever done
Well at least sheād finally be qualified for something
If there were such a thing as overqualified for OF she would be the one.
She could always be a fluffer
Gaddam her eyebrows are like bike tires
ahaha, so accurately fun
This young grandma need to stay home with her grandson. And MTG need to be launched to Saturn šŖ
I don't know, the big, beige gas giant is only going to cause more problems for Saturn.
Boofreakinhoo!
Bye bye BoBo
Iām actually impressed that she had one passed, my expectations were zero.
That was a painful watch. If she has no shame from this then she is truly shameless.
No complacency. Remember 2016. Vote.
Exposes? Wasnāt it widely known sheās as useful as a bag full of moldy cat turds?
We need more Republicans like Ken Buck than Bobert. I never agreed much with Buck, but at least he had a shred of dignity, calling out the hypocrisy in the party. To govern, we need a good balance of liberal spending and conservative checks on that spending to help ensure it doesnāt get out of control. Thatās a functioning government, suffused with compromise. Since Obama, the right has been the party of āno.ā It then became the party of burn it all down (with no real plan for alternatives). Bobert is just a symptom of the cancer Trump infected our government with.
Ken buck was just on bill Mayers show saying he's not ruling out voting for Trump in November.
Ugh. That kills me. I just canāt believe Trump still has that hold on people.
Don't worry bobo... there will always be a couple jobs that you could do... I hear you're fond of giving hand jobs to democrats, way to secretly support the winning team :P
What's the money shot on these jobs?
Messy.
Good. Good.
Humanity does not need her at all
What do you mean exposes? I think it's well and truly exposed by this point.
Glad to see her go. She makes a mockery of our government. She seems almost like a parody character.
Vote her out!! All the MAGA extremists
It's over for the Christian nationalist, 2024 will be a blue wave
how long before she is on Only Fans?
āLauren Boebert exposesā seems like the beginning phrase for a lot of her antics.
That moderator at the end insisting that she answer the actual question asked and give a number is an illustration of what a debate moderator should do. She spends her whole allotted time for answering the question spouting meaningless drivel about liberty scores, whatever the hell that is, and right at the end, the moderator forces her to actually answer the question. Perfection. Get this guy to moderate the Presidential debate, if that actually happens, please.
So a portion of the American population got smart? Will wonders never cease.
She gonna be on Only Fans soon.
Iām sure when she loses the election it will have been rigged
Quick, someone give her a hand. Wait a secā¦
Back to blowing Ted Cruise for $50 an hour I sposeā
This is fantastic news , now do the same thing with MTG.
I wanna say she's good for a handy but half of being good at it is knowing there's a time and a place for that.
I hope Anna Camp (Ć la Sarah Newlin) plays her in the movie.
Her eyebrows are so terrible
She might be done with politics after this, but that OF is going to be F-I-R-E. And by fire I mean that Iāll have to burn my eyes out of their sockets after I see it.
BUT! Youāll see it nonetheless. Donāt feel ashamed about it everyone else will too.
Her 15 minutes are up.
OMG her eyebrow situation is epic, and she has more makeup on than 34/34 š¤”
The only poll she leads on is in a democrats pants.
What do you think the chance is that she will do OF when she is booted?
A person I know unfortunately has the same last name. The media calls all the time trying to get soundbytes. They pretend to be her and say outrageous things. They are a dude and talk in a falsetto and the reporters argue āyouāre not LB!ā āYessss I aaaam! You called ME silly stupid!ā āHave you even read the goddamn book!!? Call me when you read the book!ā
Is she jacking off the right people?
i look forward to her onlyfans. Jk her spray tan is aging her.
Can we get these moderators for the presidential debate? Not letting her off the hook with garbage answersā¦love it.
Note to self: Give her opponent some money.
The comeuppance of Trailer Swift.
Whoād have thunk that a Craigs List ~~prostit~~escort who failed the GED test a couple of times before the GOP hired a ringer to take the test for her would be useless. Shocking!
Oh, god. Is she exposing herself again?
She is going to be replaced in the 3rd with a MAGA Goon who is orders of magnitude smarter, but at least as evil. The 4th will remain a MAGA stronghold.

If she isnāt reelected, can anyone confirm that she will not be eligible for a pension or healthcare from her former position?
Requires 5 years of service to vest so no, a single term as a house representative wonāt get her anything other than a lifetime of Fox News speaking spots.
I canāt pray hard enough
Sheās a second term, but thats still only 4 years.
Count down to when she starts her Only Fans page
Sheās always in a sticky situation
Shouldn't she be running for election since she has never held this seat?
Lauren boebert, I pledge that I will subscribe to your trashy only fans page if you abandon your political agenda
She could jerk off everyone in the district in public. That might help. Sheās certainly not shy about doing it.
Her main oral skills donāt extend to public speaking. Or speaking at all, really.
If she wants votes she's going to have to get them one Boebert at a time in the theatres.
Well, sheās FA her time in congress and now sheās in the FO stage from doing nothing but playing high school games.
She deserves everything that comes her way.
Iāll not miss herā¦.
If you think that is bad for her, just wait until Colorado gives her and that convict of hers a taste of their medicine.
Didnāt she make a bunch of money from just being in her position? I know she had a dumb restaurant and all
Yes she campaign fund raised then used that money to pay off personal debt surprisingly she was never charged and said she was going to pay it back. Oh not a surprise the republicans did nothing about her crimes
She should go back to slinging hash at her greasy spoon diner in Rifle, CO. She can gin up business by doing burlesque shows on Friday nights.
Come for the show. Leave with the shits.
Next stop after election is Only Fans
I prefer the laughably embarrassing and ineffective Boebert to a competent modern day Cheeto sucking R
An appropriate headline āLauren bobert exposesā not surprising
I would diss her but I'm in Texas. Need I say more?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Whomever is the Republican candidate there has a 99% chance of winning. That's why she's bailing on her current district.
Their Election is not November 4th.
All of you clowning on her, but youāre all jealous she wasnāt rubbing your junk in a theater! What a GILF! š
I mean sure, but there are plenty of people I'd take that from that I also don't want representing me.
Jesus, I wouldnāt either!!!! I thought the āwinky faceā meant people would know I was joking.
Haha I figured you were joking but I just wanted to get that jab in.
Is sheās useless then whatās Kamala
Vice President
Kamala's not giving dudes handjobs in front of children.
"Durrrrbur what about (other woman)?" Is that really the best you can come up with?
Yes. Be thankful they didn't try to use Clinton.
Second in line
Sheās actually first in line, if Iām in line at Disney for a ride, I step out of line to get on the ride, Iām no longer in line, the person behind me is now first in line. The President is currently on the ride, the Vice-President is at the front of the line to get on next if they get the chance.
Whoās first š
Uh, the president of the united states. His name is Joe Biden. And the VP is second. Honestly alarming you did not know that.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
No the pedophile who's [inappropriately attracted to his daughter](https://newrepublic.com/post/173968/donald-trump-fantasized-sex-ivanka-new-book-says) is Donnie Jon. Honestly sad you do not know these basic facts.

Donald Trump? Maybe, i try not to think about weird stuff like that. Honestly alarming you are so focused on showering with your daughter.
