Colorado police reportedly arrived after Jayson Boebert called and claimed he was ‘victim of domestic violence’ and punched in face

Rightwing US congresswoman Lauren Boebert is denying allegations that she punched her ex-husband in the face in public after police in Colorado were reportedly called out to an encounter involving the pair Saturday night at a restaurant.

The incident was first reported by the Daily Beast. The news site said that Jayson Boebert called police claiming that he was a “victim of domestic violence”. In an interview with the Daily Beast, Jayson Boebert alleged that the congresswoman had “punched” him in the face several times. He claimed to have a witness to the events.

“I didn’t punch Jayson in the face and no one was arrested,” Boebert said in a statement provided to reporter Kyle Clark of television station KUSA. Calling Saturday night’s events “a sad situation for all that keeps escalating”, she added: “I will be consulting with my lawyer about the false claims he made against me and evaluate all of my legal options.”

    She also vehemently denied giving handies and vaping at Beetlejuice: The Musical… then the videos came out.

    Given how her last round of accusations and denials of inappropriate public behavior went, I look forward to the surveillance video showing that’s exactly what she did coming out in the next few days.

    Did anyone hear that crazy story about how boebert, candace owens, tomi lahren and more of that type of vapid, gop agent of chaos - all started on a sketchy “modeling agency” website (which seems like it’s also used as an escort service potentially) called “explore talent”?

    It shows some of these “political pundits” in revealing, suggestive poses and is run by an Israeli pornographer with ties to organized crime (Name is Ami Shafrir and he is suspected/accused of some other pretty serious stuff).

    Here are some of the photos that were captured (with watermark):

    Here’s boebert (this photo really shows you her roots as the illegitimate daughter of a deadbeat amateur wrestler from Florida).

    And I guess, until recently at least, candice owens’ whole profile was still up.

    There’s always another layer to these cartoon villains and their evil, desperation and ignorance.

    And here’s a Twitter thread that broke it open and continues to track as new members of things like the Jan 6 insurrection are found to mysteriously also be in the explore talent family

      Do you have any sources besides a Twitter thread? I can’t stand Boebert any more than you, but this stuff would be really straightforward to fake with some time and effort.

        The way I heard it, it wasn’t so much that the site itself was one wing or the other, it’s just the site that people were getting recruited FROM to eventually BECOME right wing… operatives?

        I’m not completely certain which domestic or foreign group is responsible for hiring all of them, but it’s clearly deliberate positioning of less-than-successful actors/models into noisemaking/visibility roles.

        They must be paying well because at least one of those people used to ostensibly be a liberal.

        Outside of eliminating all PAC-type “contribution” organizations, all shell company sorts of situations AND forcing all pundits to disclose their financing like a publicly traded corporation has to, we’re not going to stop bad money from funding horrible behaviour.

        It sure would be interesting to get a few of the worst of these folks hauled into court for the handful of harmful statements they’re making that constitute actual crimes and get their funding exposed, though.

          imho it makes more sense to think that the Right would recruit from someone else’s site than to imagine that they would create the site themselves. The two main reasons are that it’s easier to use someone else’s work, and that it gives them a layer of separation in case there’s an investigation. That’s pure opinion.

          Normally I would call this a conspiracy theory but the right is notorious for projecting and we all know how vocal they are about crisis actors… Sounds like there might be something there.

          If she started with the brunette, sexy-librarian look she has now, she probably would have been more successful as a model and maybe not have to stoop to being a congressperson.

      There’s probably a video of her bare chested smashing her big breasts in his face a couple of times. She bitch slapped him to prove a point. She wants us all to know they are real.

          We just don’t know. We need that video enhanced. Or maybe a 24hrs, or 60 minutes or CNN re-enactment. Pornhub might have to step in with the right height actress and do a pretend real estate vs pizza delivery boy date gone wrong video. We just don’t know right now.

      That, and not the “showing his dick to some minors at a bowling alley” thing?

      Also Lauren was one of those minors.

        She was flashed by an adult as a child and thought “I’m gonna marry that sex offender one day”.

        Who the fuck voted for this disaster?

          Clearly following the religious text.

          Deuteronomy 22:28–29

          28 If a man encounters a young woman, a virgin who is not engaged, takes hold of her and rapes her, and they are discovered, 29 the man who raped her is to give the young woman’s father fifty silver shekels, and she will become his wife because he violated her. He cannot divorce her as long as he lives.

          While not the same, it sort of catch the drift. Like people can worship whatever religion they want but Jesus this section of the bible is horrific and sort of highlight women as mere property (one of the countless examples in the bible), which should be expected coming from that time period but crazy this kind of thing is still expected to be followed unquestioned.

      And he talks like this: Jayson Boebert said he told police he does not want to press charges. “I don’t want nothing to happen,” Jayson Boebert said. “Her and I were working through a difficult conversation.”

      I’m pretty sure nothing isn’t going to happen.

    If bobo denies it, there’s probably video surveillance from the restaurant, and three handheld recordings along with 10 eyewitnesses that show her punching.

    2020 - S05E07 - Boebert! Boebert! Boebert!

    Silt police were called to an incident involving U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert and her ex-husband, Jayson Boebert, on Saturday night, authorities confirmed. In a statement to Colorado Politics on Sunday, the two-term Republican denied punching her ex-husband. “This is a sad situation for all that keeps escalating and another reason I’m moving," Boebert said in a text message, via a spokesman.

    We all saw her give her boyfriend a tug job at a kids movie, of course she probably trash punched her husband in the parking lot of TGI Fridays or whatever.
