    Oh her boyfriend owns a bar that hosts LBGTQ+ events? This keeps getting better.

      I love how that’s just tossed in at the end, as if it we shouldn’t be rubbing it into her hypocritical face.

      For those not aware, she’s a far right congress woman that publically hates on the LGBT community. The issue here isn’t that this guy is cool with alternative peeps, it’s that she’s a hypocrite.

    Not even divorced yet and she’s already getting fingerbanged in public with her affair partner. That’s some fine Republican family values there, making her grandchild conceived outside of teenaged marriage proud.

      Imagine if someone like AOC acted like ANY of this in public. The bloody Christly GOP would be screaming for her head on a platter.

        “Nobody panics when things go “according to plan.” Even if the plan is horrifying! If, tomorrow, I tell the press that, like, Lauren Boebert got fingered in a public theatre, or that she was dry jerking her bf in public while her divorce is still warm, nobody panics, because it’s all “part of the plan”. But when I say that AOC was protesting abortion rights outside the supreme court, well then everyone loses their minds!”

    It has been “difficult and humbling.”

    Humbling? Humbling? I’ll believe that when I fucking see it. She has never once betrayed the slightest hint of humility.

    A report from the Advocate, the LGBTQ+ news outlet, noted that the man who accompanied her to Beetlejuice was a Democrat named Quinn Gallagher who is the proprietor of a bar that has hosted LGBTQ+ events and drag performances, which have often been targets of the political right.

      This, to me, was the most noteworthy part of the whole event! One of them has to be at least a little two faced and not believe what they “stand for”. Boebert has a reputation that is just irreconcilable with Democrat values. I’m all for getting along but this is such an extreme belief difference, how is it not an issue!

      Nah, it’s “She has recognized that which was wrong and has repented. God has forgiven her and who are we to judge?”

      Of course, when it’s a liberal, it’s, “They refuse to recant their evil ways, we must stone them to death!”

      That’s actually being kind to them. They demand forgiveness and understanding for their own shitty deeds but the moment someone on their giant list of undesirables has a hair out of place, it’s off to the gallows for them.

      She’s dogshit. We knew she was dogshit. The people voting for her do so specifically because she’s dogshit.

      No, she won’t. She’s a woman. If she were a man she’d get a pass, but a woman that’s not chaste? Absolutely abhorrent.

      Hate and fear mongering.

      But wait…

    That’s ok. Groping your techincally male mistress while in full view of children isn’t as bad as being gay in full view of children.

      When I went to see Beetlejuice (on tour) I was really amazed by how many kids were there. There’s quite a bit of lewd and innuendo-laden humor in it…and Beetlejuice (the character) is, quite openly, bisexual.

      Not to say anything bad about the show. I loved it. It was fucking great. Just…a bit surprising. I imagine like me, many parents were probably thinking it’d be more in line with the much more innocent cartoon series or the film.

      Idk, i heard he runs a lgbq friendly bar and he’s fingerbanging a vapid, married republican in puplic. He seems like a riot.
