House Rep. Lauren Boebert (Republican, CD-4) reportedly put her racism on display at a Halloween party in Windsor, CO, by dressing up like a Mexican wearing a sombrero and holding a sign that said, “Mexican word of the day: JUICY. Tell me if JUICY ICE COMING,” mocking Latino’s pronunciation of the words “you see.” Her date, at left in the photo above, was dressed up as an ICE agent.
As families go into hiding, workers fear going to work, children are afraid to go to school and thousands of people, including Americans, get kidnapped off the street daily by armed, masked, unidentified federal agents who then incarcerate them indefinitely in reportedly inhumane, unsanitary, deplorable conditions at ICE detention centers around the U.S., Boebert appears to make fun of peoples’ suffering for entertainment.
In September, 2023, after getting ejected from the musical BeetleJuice at the Buell Theater in Denver for bad behavior including vaping, groping, singing, taking photos and being a nuisance to everyone around her, Boebert offered some etiquette lessons she claimed she learned as a result of that incident. One of her pieces of advice:
“Be thoughtful about your outfit. The whole world may wind up seeing it.”
Boebert obviously failed to heed her own recommendation.
Her costume was widely condemned across social media as racist, trashy, cruel and vile.
a bottomless pit of a soul…. targeting, separating mothers from their young children, traumatizing and destroying minds and lives like it’s no big deal, and there “it” is just grinning about it. this is modern society now…. makes me think of the lives of the past on how much horror they had to endure at the hands of “people” like this…..always thought the face was ugly and vile to look at …. just a representation of the soul that lurks beneath i suppose..
I would love to see a photo credit on this. I strongly suspect AI. Don’t get me wrong; I despise Boebert’s policies, attitudes, and behavior. But without further authentication I really have to question the authenticity of this photo. Not that I don’t think she’s capable of pulling such an egregious stunt. I just would like to know the name of the person who shot the picture and some documentation about time and place of the event. I guess my spidey sense is telling me that if Bobo had actually dreamed up and created this costume she would have been so proud of it she would have posted it herself on her own social media and I could find no trace of it on any of her postings. Also her face just doesn’t look quite right. So if anyone knows any more about this (for real) I would love to hear it. She does plenty enough evil stuff for us to complain about and hold her accountable for. If someone faked up this photo it actually lowers “us” to the same gutter “they” are always dwelling in.
I am disgusted by the level of ignorance that is shown by elected representatives and the people that elect them. If you voted for her and believe her costume is appropriate for an elected official, then this country doesn’t have a shot in hell of surviving the current elected officials.
Q-Bert runs around modeling today’s GOP values: racism, sexism, oligarch-ism, measles-ism, and inflation-ism.
I am no longer a Republican!
I’m not at all surprised, she’s white trash, and will always be trash. Just like her supporters that assured her her pension and lifetime golden medical insurance by voting her back into office for the 3rd term. She will be sucking he system for the rest of her white trash life.
Boobert is certainly white trash, but members of Congess do not get any better health insurance than any other federal employee. They pay premiums and co-pays and deductibles, too. They can carry it into retirement if they pay for it.
As for a pension, she can’t collect until she’s 65 and it’s based on the same criteria as any other federal employee. Just a handful of terms may produce a pension of a few hundred dollars a month, nothing to shake a stick at but not wealth, either. It would be a very nice pension if she hangs around for 25-30 years. Her district might be nutty enough to keep her there.
Don’t be distracted by exaggerated claims of pensions and health insurance. They’re chickenfeed next to the real money the Congress makes, insider trading. It’s impossible to prove unless they’re dumb enough to use email or other electronic communication. Look at George Santos, for example. The paper trail sent him to prison. Then the orange blob gave him clemency.
MAGA world will take care of Boobert one way or the other. She’s truly a despicable human being. At least she’s out of our CD.
What a despicable excuse for a human being. Boebert mocks people’s pain and openly flaunts her hate for brown people like it’s some twisted badge of honor. There’s no bottom with her, just deeper levels of cruelty.
I saw this online yesterday. I was hesitant to share thinking it might be AI. I guess I am still a bit of a Pollyanna. It continues to amaze me just how low these people can go!
