It already didn’t look great for Lauren Boebert when she got kicked out of a Denver theater for being disruptive during a performance of the Beetlejuice musical — or when video emerged of the voluble Republican congresswoman being escorted out of the theater. But that was hardly the end of this saga. A second video showed Boebert vaping in front of a pregnant woman, who claimed that the lawmaker refused to stop doing so when asked. The story really went nuclear when a third surveillance video leaked, showing that Boebert and her date were getting awfully comfortable with each other during the show.

Unfortunately for Boebert’s campaign to rebrand as a normal lawmaker, more juicy details keep coming out. Boebert — who has condemned drag shows in the past — was co-groping at Beetlejuice with an Aspen bar owner whose establishment hosts drag shows and participates in an event called Aspen Gay Ski Week. “I learned to check party affiliations before you go on a date,” Boebert told TMZ, although the pair have been reportedly seeing each other for months now.

In an interview with OAN, Boebert, who has been arrested four times, said that she is “very known for having an animated personality.” But the private incident in public is having a big impact on her professional life, distracting from her effort to impeach President Biden. Days after the incident, she was removed from the list of speakers for the Texas Youth Summit later this month.

At least she has her defenders. In a long Facebook post published Monday, Boebert’s ex-husband, Jayson, said he shared the blame for the incident, claiming that his acts of cheating “broke her down.” While it’s odd to have your recent ex-husband come to your defense for getting handsy in public, Jayson Boebert is something of an expert in this realm, having once been arrested for exposing himself to a teenager at a bowling alley.

    Nor fucking should she!

    Remember, Paul Reubens(RIP) was arrested for getting his junk out at an adult theater. This trailer park queen had her tits out was getting felt up and was diddling her boyfriend in front of around kids in a well lit theatre! There’s even video of them! She needs to be charged and put on a list!

    Edit: Better? Can we all at least agree that she’s a trashy piece of shit?

      Didn’t watch the video, huh?

      had her tits out

      No she didn’t.

      diddling her boyfriend in front of kids

      Meh, a quick grope looked more like it. Same for him. In front of kids? How about, “In the dark with kids nearby.”?

      well lit theatre

      Funny, the video I saw was clearly recorded in infrared (or some sort of night vision).

      As if this woman and her actions aren’t heinous enough, we gotta make up shit? It’s easy to point to facts and say,

      She needs to be charged and put on a list!

      Imagine a conservative reading these lies and saying, “BS! Not gonna read or listen to any more of this liberal crap!”

      Lies do us liberals a disservice.

      Fuck her but her tits were not out. It was also not well lit. You can certainly make the argument that she should be put on a list though.

      Human breasts are not sexual. If a woman touched a man’s breast you wouldn’t be complaining. There’s a double standard at play.

        Human breasts are not sexual.

        The law states it’s still indecent exposure. And breasts are sexual in both sexes when used for sex. Nipple play is popular with both sexes. And regardless, sexual conduct is still sexual conduct.

        My boobs disagree. Have you ever actually had sex?

        What an absurd comment, pathetic that this is where republican bootlickers find themselves these days

        Human breasts aren’t sexual? Breast development is literally a sign of sexual maturity in women! Both men and women experience pleasure when they’re touched. They are literally sexual in nature!

        And yeah, I see a woman outright fondling a dude’s chest, just full on cupping and nipple play in public? Yeah, I’m gonna be uncomfortable and probably complain to someone. Not really a double standard there on my end, sorry. Inappropriate is inappropriate.

          I mean, facial hair growth is literally a sign of sexual maturity in men, but you’d be hard-pressed to convince anyone that beards are sexual.

          The purpose of breasts is to feed babies; they’re not inherently sexual in that way. That society has labelled them as such is different and very real, but it’s harmful to declare breasts as inherently sexual just because of that.

          To be clear this is just semantics; Bobo is clearly in the wrong here.
