Lauren Boebert is an unapologetic conservative firebrand in Congress.
That’s why she’s been in the crosshairs of Democrats since she was first elected.
And now Lauren Boebert is facing a sick attack from Democrats for this awful reason.
Lauren Boebert victim of a vicious smear campaign
Representative Lauren Boebert (R-CO) burst onto the political scene in 2020 when she won an upset victory in the Republican Primary for Colorado’s Third Congressional district. Boebert first got on the national radar for owning Shooter’s Grill in the town of Rifle, Colorado, with her ex-husband. The gun-themed restaurant featured entrees like the M16 burrito and had waitresses who opened carried handguns.
Boebert is a champion for Second Amendment rights. She interrupted a Denver rally in 2019 for then Democrat Presidential candidate Beto O’Rourke, who vowed to confiscate AR-15s. Boebert told him, “Hell no, you won’t take our guns.”
She joined the Congressional Second Amendment Caucus founded by pro-gun champion Representative Thomas Massie (R-KY). Boebert quickly developed a reputation as an outspoken conservative and a fierce defender of former President Donald Trump. Her no-holds-barred style put her in the crosshairs of Democrats and left-wing activists.
Boebert’s race in the 2022 Midterm Elections ended up being one of the closest in the country that year after she won by less than 1,000 votes. Democrats brought the politics of personal destruction to Colorado that year. A left-wing activist group called American Muckrakers launched a vicious smear campaign against her. They falsely accused her of working as an escort, having an abortion, and using drugs. The photo that they claimed showed Boebert on an escort site was eventually confirmed to be a different woman.
This year, Democrats thought they had a chance to end Boebert’s political career after her close call in 2022. Her opponent, former Aspen City Council member Adam Frisch, was back for a rematch. And he became one of the top fundraisers for Democrat challengers as dozens of Hollywood celebrities like director Rob Reiner and Barbra Streisand poured money into his campaign.
Boebert decided to switch from the Third Congressional District to the Fourth after Representative Ken Buck (R-CO) announced his retirement from Congress. Colorado’s Fourth Congressional District is the most Republican in the state. Buck won the seat by more than 24 points during the 2022 Midterm Elections. Boebert had a safe Republican seat locked down after she won this year’s Republican Primary.
Left-wing activists launch scheme to get ATF to take Lauren Boebert’s guns
Democrats know that they can’t beat Boebert in an election now that she’s in a safe Republican seat. American Muckrakers launched another sick attack on her. They accused her of using illegal drugs and demanded that the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) strip her of her gun rights.
American Muckrakers sent a letter to ATF Director Steven Dettelbach, Colorado Attorney General Philip Weiser (D), the acting U.S. Attorney for Colorado, and others demanding an investigation into Boebert. It accused her of lying about drug use on federal background check forms for her firearms. One of the charges that Hunter Biden was recently convicted for. The letter relied on hearsay and rumors to demand an investigation.
“I believe Boebert is a ticking time bomb and she needs to be relieved of her firearms pending an investigation into the actions above. No one is above the law, including a Member of Congress. She must be held accountable for her actions,” American Muckrakers president David Wheeler wrote.
American Muckrakers has already been caught red-handed lying about Lauren Boebert. Democrats are furious that they lost the chance to beat her in an election. Now they’re lashing out with a smear campaign.
