Lauren Boebert Urged Conservatives To Go 'On Offense'–And It Backfired Spectacularly

Lauren Boebert tweeted conservatives need 'to be on OFFENSE not DEFENSE' and Twitter brought the jokes.

Colorado Republican Representative Lauren Boebert is definitely familiar with the online roastings that tend to come with the weird things she posts at this point, but she doesn't seem to be learning from those experiences.

Boebert is known for loving guns, sharing QAnon conspiracies and vehemently supporting former President Donald Trump—especially his constant assertion he only lost the 2020 election because of some kind of election fraud he nor anyone else has any proof of.


Yesterday, Boebert tweeted about conservatives needing to "be on offense" and it took basically no time for the roasting to begin.

Boebert tweeted:

"Conservatives, we need to be on OFFENSE not DEFENSE."

People began to call out Boebert in the comments almost immediately, most with a common theme.

Boebert and other members of the Republican Party who have made it their mission to spread conspiracy theories and other disinformation4 are already pretty offensive without even trying.





Others had different critiques.



A recent recount confirmed Boebert did narrowly receive enough votes to hold on to her House seat.

So her Twitter nonsense—and other nonsense—are likely to be a fixture in Congress for a while yet.

Trump Just Shared A Truly Unhinged Tribute To Tim Cook After He Announced He's Stepping Down As Apple CEO—And, Hoo Boy

President Donald Trump shared an unhinged tribute to Apple CEO Tim Cook—whom he again referred to as "Tim Apple"—following Cook's announcement that Apple will have a new leader starting in September, openly reminiscing about all the times Cook would call him to "kiss my ass."

Cook took over from Steve Jobs and reshaped Apple by leaning on his operations expertise. He streamlined and expanded global supply chains, introduced Apple-designed chips, and pushed the company beyond hardware into services, launching subscription offerings like Apple News, Apple TV+, and Apple Pay, which have since become major revenue drivers.
