Boebert Gets Hilariously Brutal Reminder After Gripe About 'Failure Theatre' In Congress

The MAGA Rep. took to X, formerly Twitter, to whine about the fight in Congress over sending aid to Ukraine, calling it 'failure theatre'—and was swiftly dragged for mentioning the word 'theatre' after her antics in Denver.

Far-right Republican Colorado Representative Lauren Boebert is not know for being particularly sophisticated.

But despite that, you may remember that she is a theatre lover—or at least, she loves getting amorous at the theatre, as she was caught doing in September 2023.


If you'd forgotten all about that, you're not alone. Boebert apparently had too, because she made a very unfortunate reference to "theatre" in a tweet that was immediately turned into a mocking clapback.

Boebert's tweet was in response to one from Missouri Representative Eric Burlison, complaining about Congress' attempts to send more aid to Ukraine without addressing, at least to his liking, the crisis at the Southern border first.

In her response, Boebert called Congress' moves "more failure theatre," before claiming:

"The uniparty’s platform is America Last."

Whatever that means. You probably have to be a far-right wackadoo to get it.

That wasn't the part of the tweet that stood out to people anyway, it was the "failure theatre" part—which of course called to mind the scandal Boebert created in September 2023 when she was caught on security cameras with a date, Quinn Gallagher, sexually groping each other at a Denver performance of Beetlejuice.

Naturally, people on Twitter weren't about to let a Boebert reference to "theatre" slip by.









Boebert also might want to focus on her upcoming election campaign in Colorado, where she is currently polling well behind her likely Democratic opponent, although she still has to get through a Republican primary first.

Gavin Newsom Rips Pete Hegseth For Suggesting Press Is Only Reporting On U.S. Casualties To Make Trump Look Bad

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was criticized by California Governor Gavin Newsom after Hegseth accused the press of only reporting on the negative effects of President Donald Trump's attacks on Iran.

Trump has said that the U.S. military was "knocking the crap out of Iran" but the "big wave" of attacks is still yet to come, and has not ruled out putting boots on the ground, saying the war is progressing "way ahead of schedule." Trump has urged Iranians to revolt, even as the regime reshuffles leadership following the death of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and some of his associates.
