Facing calls to resign, Boebert shifts blame to Democrats, HollywoodLast edited Wed Jan 13, 2021, 01:46 PM - Edit history (1)
DENVER — Colorado Congresswoman Lauren Boebert on Monday responded to calls for her resignation by describing Democrats as hypocrites and naming celebrities and politicians she blames for inciting violence.
“We should take Democrats at their word when they say never let a crisis go to waste. Their hypocrisy is on full display with talks of impeachment, censure, and other ways to punish Republicans for false accusations of inciting the type of violence they have so frequently and transparently supported in the past,” the Republican from Rifle said in a statement. snip "They accuse me of live-tweeting the Speaker’s presence after she had been safely removed from the Capitol, as if I was revealing some big secret, when it fact this removal was also being broadcast on TV," Boebert wrote. (notice she doesn't deny it) snip Boebert also tweeted "Today is 1776" ahead of the attack. A group of Democrats in Colorado have called on Boebert and Lamborn to resign, saying in a letter that they helped incite the violence. Monday, #ResignBoebert also trended on Twitter. https://www.9news.com/article/news/local/next/colorado-lauren-boebert-republican-resignation-response/73-192ec0ed-bca9-40e9-98d1-8b33dd864449

14. Capitol Police said not to use social media. Did she know it was broadcasted at the time, in hiding?
