Colorado lawmaker, who pushed for Epstein files release, points to bill’s unanimous passage through US House and Senate
Republican representative Lauren Boebert has fired back at Donald Trump for vetoing a bill that would have funded a drinking water project in her Colorado district, implying the president was playing at political retaliation.
The bill was aimed at funding a decades-long project to bring safe drinking water to 39 communities in Colorado’s eastern plains, where the groundwater is high in salt and wells sometimes unleash radioactivity into the water supply.
Boebert criticized the move, calling the bill “completely non-controversial” and pointed out that it passed the House and Senate unanimously earlier this year.
Well no shit.
The expression “No Shit Sherlock” presents itself.
I have a theory that Lauren Boebert doesent actually need glasses but wears them to seem smarter. It isnt working.
Authoritarians who did everything they could to make this dude feel like he should be a literal king are mad that he doesn’t give a fuck what they say. Crazy.
Morons.
No shit, dumbfuck.
Stick to the handjobs. You’re better at it than thinking.
She filed for divorce the month before the theater handy, and she’s not currently with the guy she was jacking, so it would seem that she’s pretty shit at handjobs.
Kinda sad for someone who was supposedly a cheap escort in Colorado.
Fuck around find out.
This bitch and the rest of the GOP spent the last 10 years on their hands and knees sucking Trump’s tiny trumpet (Boebert at a Beetlejuice musical). Then the moment the narcissistic toddler they put into office again gets slight push back, he immediately retaliates.
I garuntee you the dumb fucks who voted Boebert into office will primary her out next cycle. Not because of what I just said, but because she dared to challenge their god emporer who just took away their clean water.
Of course it is retaliation. What else would it be? His claim that it is wasteful or that it’s about “fiscal sanity” (lol) [1] is simply not a believable claim. Projects like this are exactly why governments exist. But selfish little baby has to make it all about him.
[1] I love that, even now, the idiotic myth that Republicans and conservatives are somehow the best stewards of money, the economy or business still lingers on. It was a ridiculous notion decades ago and has blown way into the child-like imagination phase at this point. Conservatives and Republicans are always terrible for the economy and terrible at balancing budgets, etc.
Yeah but Conservatives and particularly Republicans are great at spreading a message. It’s more important that people believe that Conservatives and Republicans are good stewards of the economy than actually being good stewards. The economy will ebb and flow regardless of what anyone does, so why do anything about it when you can just take credit for the highlights.
When the president does something like this, congress should keep sending it back. Just spam his ass with it.
No need for that. A veto can be overturned by Congress entirely and a unanimously passed bill should be quite easy to accomplish that with. In a normal functioning democracy, at least.
The GOP members who initially voted bypartisantly (I believe it was a voice-only vote, no exact tally was made) may not want to do a formal override vote and paint themselves as an opponent to their supreme leader.
Hence my last sentence.
She’s not wrong. It is retaliation. Just not against her
Ya love to see it.
Keep tearing each other apart, MAGA. This is better than daytime TV.
I want to believe, but this all seems like theater to me
She’s pretty sharp for the dullest knife in the drawer.
