GOP Rep. Had the Worst Response After Being Called Out for Gun Background During Committee Meeting

Freshman Congresswoman Lauren Boebert (R-CO) is part of the string of radical Republicans elected to office in the 117th Congress.

Boebert rose to prominence for owning a restaurant whose staff was encouraged to openly carry firearms while at work. Like her colleague, Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), Boebert has expressed support for the QAnon conspiracy theory, which hinges on the belief that a network of satanic cannibal pedophiles secretly controls the United States government.


In case her constituents weren't clear about Boebert's obsession with guns, a hastily assembled display in Boebert's zoom background during a House committee meeting this week made that perfectly clear.

Boebert—who tweeted the location of lawmakers during the Capitol riots last month—railed against the subsequent use of metal detectors for lawmakers entering the Capitol.

But it was the weaponry on her mantle that made a far greater impression.

The haphazard display of firearms was criticized on Twitter.



If that weren't enough, the gun fanatic admitted her weapons were ready for use, making the storage even more unsafe for a so-called "responsible" gun owner.

Her response was far from reassuring.






Others mocked the bizarre attempt at pandering.



Boebert has yet to elaborate on her reckless weapons storage.

Trump Ripped After Griping About 'Sissy' New NFL Kickoff Rule In Unhinged Rant

President Donald Trump was criticized after he complained about the NFL's new "Dynamic Kickoff" rule that is designed to make playing football safer, calling it "sissy" football in a Monday morning post on Truth Social.

Under the previous rules, kickoffs began at the kicking team’s 35-yard line, with the goal of sending the ball as far as possible to pin the opposing offense deep in its own territory. The receiving team would try to advance the ball, which would often lead to high-speed collisions as players sprinted directly at each other.

Political Commentator Epically Fact-Checks Vance's Baseless Claims About Political Violence

In the wake of far-right activist Charlie Kirk's assassination, Vice President JD Vance has stepped up his attacks on leftists, this time by baselessly claiming that the far-left is more likely to commit political violence than the far-right.

Vance hosted a special episode of Kirk's podcast to attack what he referred to as “the lunatics in American politics" and said without any evidence that the suspect in Kirk's killing was motivated by far-left ideology.
