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.

Model Accuses Fashion Brand Of Using AI To Recreate Her Looks For Ad Instead Of Hiring Her

There used to be laws in place for someone's likeness being used without their consent, and most certainly if their likeness was being used in an exploitative way for profit.

But now with the rise of AI-generated photographs, advertisements, and other digital products, the lines seem to have become muddied between the illegal stealing of someone's likeness and AI "inspiration."

TikToker Secretly Records Unhinged Spectrum Employee Screaming At Her For Trying To Cancel Her Service

Employees in commission-based positions are feeling increasingly pressured to acquire new clients, retain previous clients, and solve the issues their clients call in about with high satisfaction ratings.

Even though tensions are high, and the pressure they're feeling may be unrealistic for any one person to take, that doesn't give them the right to mistreat people who do not want to sign up or want to cancel.
