Lauren Boebert Tweets Bible Verse About 'Secrets' Only To Get It Flipped Right Back On Her

Lauren Boebert Tweets Bible Verse About 'Secrets' Only To Get It Flipped Right Back On Her

It's been said "people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones," a phrase which here means you should not criticize other people for bad qualities in their character you have yourself.

If you happen to be Colorado Republican Representative Lauren Boebert—who has come under significant scrutiny for the role she potentially played during the insurrection of January 6—then you should probably take this phrase to heart... or at least not post Bible verses that turn the social media community against you.


But that's exactly what happened after Boebert posted a Bible verse about "secrets."

Yesterday, Boebert posted the following verse from Luke 8:17:

"For nothing is secret that will not be revealed, nor anything hidden that will not be known and come to light."

The irony here is Boebert has plenty of secrets—or things that are no longer so secret—of her own.

The extent of Boebert's alleged involvement in the January 6 insurrection—which took place when a mob of former President Donald Trump's supporters stormed the United States Capitol on the false premise the 2020 election had been stolen—appeared to become clearer following a bombshell report from Rolling Stone.

On Sunday, October 24, Rolling Stone published an article stating several supporters of former President Trump who helped plan the insurrection had multiple planning sessions with senior White House staffers and Republican members of Congress.

Sources who spoke to the magazine said they met with several high-profile Trump acolytes, including Representatives Paul Gosar (Arizona), Marjorie Taylor Greene (Georgia), Madison Cawthorn (North Carolina) and Boebert herself.

Organizers claim Gosar promised "blanket pardons" to anyone who participated in the attack, adding they "would talk to Boebert's team, Cawthorn's team, Gosar's team like back to back to back to back."

Social media users immediately accused Boebert of tone-deafness and hypocrisy.









Boebert was one of the Republican members of the House of Representatives to vote against creating an independent, bipartisan commission to investigate the events of January 6.

The measure won approval 252-175 in the Democratic-controlled House over objections from Republicans and former President Trump.

In August, the House Select Committee ultimately tasked with the investigation said it would ask telecommunications companies to preserve the phone records of lawmakers who participated in the "Stop the Steal" rally ahead of the January 6 Capitol riot.

Boebert is one of several Republicans whose phone records have come under scrutiny.

Another is Boebert's ally, Marjorie Taylor Greene, who quickly threatened to "shut down" any telecommunications companies that comply with the request. Both lawmakers have suggested the request is little more than a political ploy to hurt Republicans in the next election.

Jasmine Crockett Calls Out Trump's Hypocrisy By Pointing Out How Melania Got Her Visa

Texas Democratic Representative Jasmine Crockett pointed out President Donald Trump's hypocrisy on immigration considering how First Lady Melania Trump's pathway to citizenship was possible because she received an "Einstein visa," which is usually reserved for an individual with "some sort of significant achievement."

Speaking during a House Judiciary Committee hearing titled “Restoring Integrity and Security to the Visa Process,” Crockett noted that “the idea that Trump and my Republican colleagues want to restore integrity and security in the visa process is actually a joke," and harshly criticized the Trump administration's immigration crackdown and visa restrictions.

Fox Host Comes To Reporter's Defense After Pete Hegseth Berates Her At Pentagon Briefing

Fox News' chief political analyst Brit Hume came to the defense of Fox national security reporter Jennifer Griffin after their former colleague, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, criticized Griffin as the reporter "who misrepresents the most intentionally what the president says” in a Pentagon news conference.

Hegseth, a former Fox News anchor, had criticized media outlets—including his former network—for what he described as unpatriotic reporting. Hegseth took particular aim at early intelligence assessments suggesting that President Donald Trump's bombing of Iran may not have significantly crippled Iran’s nuclear capabilities.

Fox Host Slams Dem For Dropping An F-Bomb After Praising Trump For The Same Thing Just Minutes Earlier

Fox News host Emily Compagno was criticized after she praised Donald Trump's use of the "f-bomb" earlier this week before condemning Texas Democratic Representative Jasmine Crockett's use of the same word—on the same episode of her show, no less.

Trump made headlines this week after admonishing Israel and Iran for violating a ceasefire agreement he'd announced on Truth Social. Although he claimed the ceasefire had been "agreed upon," Iran fired at least six missile barrages at Israel after it was supposed to take effect.
