Here's hoping her eventual career with Brazzers pans out as well as her Congressional career.

Congress: A Porn Parody
At this point in US politics .... someone could be capable of maintaining both careers at the same time.
You know, I'd watch it, just for the humiliation factor of a fall that hard.
There are easier ways to get erectile dysfunction.
I think that would be more respectable than what she has been doing. It's just honest sex for money.
Very true, which probably means she can't do it, because it would require acknowledging sex work as work.
More likely phishing banner ads
Onlyfans site is probably already signed up
Boebert is ‘exhibit A’ that members of Congress should be required to pass a minimum standardized test of basic civics knowledge prior to candidacy.
Such a test would have undoubtedly prevented Boebert, Greene, Tuberville, and other flotsam/ jetsam non-serious “legislators” from their embarrassing placement.
Yeah it's tempting to be like "oh it could be a simple test, like name the three branches of government". But the right wing (and maybe a few assholes from other parts of the spectrum) would inevitably push it towards Jim crow era voting tests.
On the other hand, what if we set these up as a honey pot? Anyone who tries to sabotage the voting test gets disappeared? No, no, that would be ruined too.
What if it was the same test we give people who are applying for citizenship?
That might have the side effect of making citizenship easier to get, which is probably a net positive.
Just remember that anytime you think of something to help people, the first thought conservatives have is "how can I use this to hurt my enemies"
in fairness, that's the first thought a conservative has upon seeing anything
Fun fact: Senator Tommy Tuberville failed to name the 3 branches of the US Government he is part of.
Good times.
We don’t even have to make a new test. Just hold them to the same standard we hold new immigrants to.
OP film yourself taking this test and post the results for us to grade. You have ten minutes, you need a perfect score to pass. This is a very real poll test given to people in Louisiana (at the discretion of poll workers, of course) to determine whether they were allowed to vote.
Sure— but your suggestion is red herringly tangential as it pertains to A CANDIDATE holding office in Congress.
I am not running for office.
Our representatives, however, should (at the bare minimum) understand how government works in my opinion— which was the basis of my post.
As a resident of the district this asshat currently represents, I was disappointed that I wouldn't be able to to vote her out of office this year. Sounds like that won't be an issue for the 4th either. Womp fucking womp you piece of shit traitor.
As a resident of her new district I will be profoundly relieved if my neighbors prove to be slightly less nutty than they appear. I’m sure I won’t be super-excited about whoever they come up with, but I would appreciate being spared this person. 😂
I won’t even fool myself that we could ever elect a democrat in CD4. We’ll be lucky to scrounge up a candidate at all.
I don't know who the competition is but I hope it's not one of those "she's not crazy and racist enough" situations
Now if only Marge could follow her...
I’m very much looking forward to not ever having to pay attention to her again.
I saw Bobert finishes and I was like well "What new musical came to Colorado?".
She’s just not blowing the right people
I read the headline as "Boebart finishes fifth grade". My reaction was "That's nice, dear." in a very condescending manner.
Oh no. Now who will be in charge of heavy petting during congressional hearings
Okay, Riker is back... but which Riker?
[actual footage from Colorado's 4th district]
Well, Boebert is the Q candidate
Hope she finally fucking loses.
The 3rd district in Colorado is not a swing district. It became a swing district because of Boebert. It was pretty red before she showed up.
Cool. Send her to Florida
It became a swinger district because of Boebert
I think you meant this ^
HAHAHAHA, get fucked, dime-store Baronness, you fash trash.
HAHAHAHAHAAHHAAH
Sit down and I'll tell you a tale of bobo the clown. Ol bobo decided to leave the circus one day and never found her way back home. The end.
