Man, this headline reminds me of those articles that used to scare parents who didn't know current slang.
Is your child talking about 'vaping'? They could mean 'giving hand jobs in a public theater'! More at 7.
Remember all the local news about raves?
I don't really expect smart decisions from Republican voters, so it remains to be seen if they are at least smart enough to vote her out.
How long until this hag is on onlyfans after she gets booted from congress? I give it three months
I mean then she'll be doing something good with her life. So no need to shame OF models.
I wasn’t; when you’re a “family values” conservative being on OF is a matter of hypocrisy

Agreed. I just don't want to put that energy out there, personally I feel enough is enough, wrt to shaming sex work.
Being a republikkklown is a matter of hypocrisy. She showed her values when she got caught giving a handy in a theater.
republikkklown
lol love it.
Vaping scandal. Lol. I fucking forgot she was smoking weed while cranking that dude’s hog in a theatre full of children.
AP, man. wtf.
Wait. Was it really weed that she was vaping? I assumed it was a tobacco product.
cranking a dude's hog while vaping weed in a theatre full of children. A completely accurate depiction of a former member of congress. How low we have come.
parental rights advocate Deborah Flora.
Disingenuous way is saying pro forced birth, anti choice.
parental rights also means anti-trans, and anti-history.
Wow. It's like the asshole quadrifecta.
Boebert faces first election Tuesday since switching districts and the ~~vaping scandal~~ hand-job scandal with her exhibitionist-in-front-of-underage-girl-husband.
FTFY, but you might need a smaller font size to fit it in.
Wasn't her husband though. "Boebert, 36, noted that she and her date, Quinn Gallagher, a 46-year-old reported Democrat and bar owner whose establishment has hosted drag shows, have decided not to see each other again."

I guess the cinema dandy handy was not that dandy
Maybe her hand was sandy.
Cursed Seuss
Vaping = Grabbing the Hog!
Not even mentioned in the article! In what world does the author live that "vaping" was the scandal that prompted her to flee her district? Conservatives couldn't care less that she was being rude with vape smoke at a play.
Some of them probably think she should have blown the vapor cloud directly into the faces of the children she was vaping around.
Remember this asshole?
Duncan Hunter, vaping on the floor of congress. He still got re-elected. R-CA.
Incidentally, he was also pardoned by Donald Trump for misusing campaign funds.
He's a complete ass, but I have to say, for history's sake, I'm glad we have video of a congressman vamping on the floor of congress. Truly the modern day's version of beating each other half to death with canes.
I would have thought vampires in congress would have made more news headlines /s
Incidentally, he was also pardoned by Donald Trump for misusing campaign funds.
Ah, you're referring to his vaping scandal. He was probably vaping while doing it.
I was going to say... the vaping was not the biggest issue.
If any of us just vaped in a theater we would probably be asked to leave but it wouldn’t be a big deal. It somehow seems like it’s worse because an elected official should behave better than my dumb ass 8 beers deep at a dive bar bathroom.
Obviously the exhibitionism is even trashier and more upsetting
I personally have no issue with her giving an ole fashion in public. My problem is all the other dumbass shit she says and does.
She shouldn't be an elected official because she has the intelligence of a moldy cabbage. Not because she chokes chickens in a general audience
Vaping, handjob - tomato, tomahto.
