Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) ruffled feathers with a potshot at a couple of President Joe Biden’s more recent speech blunders earning her both the ire of the humorless mob and a swift report to the FBI and Secret Service for “dangerous” threats to “the life of the president.”
On Friday, Biden had attempted to sate the bloodlust of the pro-abortion crowd with executive actions to work around the Supreme Court’s ruling on Dobb’s v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization that overturned Roe v. Wade. However, as previously reported, the president couldn’t find the end of his statement without a few stumbles along the way.
“‘It is noteworthy that the percentage of women who registered to vote and cast a ballot is consistently higher than the percentage of the men who do so.’ End of quote. Repeat the line,” Biden was said to have read directly off the teleprompter. In the same speech, he told an unverifiable story of a 10-year-old girl who had to travel out of state “to seek to terminate the presidency,” when he meant to say “pregnancy.”
Boebert mashed the gaffes together Sunday morning in a tweet that read, “We need to terminate this Presidency. End quote. Repeat the line.”
We need to terminate this Presidency.
End quote. Repeat the line.

Ever vocal in her pro-Second Amendment and pro-life conservative views, the Colorado congresswoman probably couldn’t order lunch without triggering wide swaths of leftist activists, but this remark really pushed their buttons.
Members of the “Defund the Police” party, having ignored the “mostly peaceful protests” and incitement from their preferred politicians that encouraged mobs outside the homes of Supreme Court justices, took off their rose-colored glasses to don their criminal law caps and prove their expertise on all things.
“There’s no way this tweet can be considered anything less than stochastic terrorism against President Biden,” one user identifying as a body language and emotional intelligence expert wrote tagging the FBI and Secret Service. “If this goes unaddressed and unpunished, others will continue in this same way. This will escalate.”

Another followed up making sure to include the Department of Justice Criminal Division and Twitter Safety. More of the same continued with tweet receiving nearly 8,000 comments at the time of this post.
Reported her.

Of course she is. And she’ll get away with it. They all do. That’s the problem.

@FBI Why is Boebert not in custody? She is making threats.

Add myself to the list wanting Boebert investigated for her tweet threatening POTUS

Of course, as the echo chamber carried on deeming Boebert a seditious traitor that needed to be perp walked, not a single one of their self-righteous reactions received a fraction of the positive response that the lawmakers had which had racked up almost 64,000 likes.
The congresswoman has been adamant in her opposition to Biden’s presidency and has introduced Articles of Impeachment against him and Vice President Kamala Harris for violating their oath to uphold the Constitution, and she has joked about praying for an abrupt end to his administration in the past.
In June, she took the stage at the Charis Christian Center Family Camp Meeting in Colorado and jested, “I do want you to know that I pray for our president. Psalm 109:8 says, ‘May his days be few and another take his office.’ Hallelujah! Glory to God.” That joke had gone over just as well as this one.
Boebert “prays” for Biden’s death, and the crowd laughs.
MAGA is a cancer.

Notify the FBI-this is not funny. She is inciting violence against the president.
