Controversial Colorado House Rep. Lauren Boebert apparently decided to shoot her shot during the Republican National Convention.

During the event, Boebert gave an interview with the Native Voice One podcast at the RNC, where she was asked who she thinks Donald Trump should name as the Secretary of the Interior if he’s successful in returning to the White House in the impending presidential election.

Apparently, Boebert had an answer already prepared for this question — herself.

“I think Lauren Boebert needs to be secretary of the interior,” Boebert said in response before just laying it all out there, clear as crystal. “President Trump, I would like to be secretary of the interior.”

The United States Secretary of Interior serves as the head of the United States Department of the Interior — an entity with the purpose of management and conservation for most federally protected lands.

And this is where Boebert let her tone-deafness and virtue signaling show to the world.

“Public lands are something that are very dear to me, and I’ve spent a lot of time on our tribal lands with our chairman and our council members,” the scandal-ridden congresswoman told the podcast hosts.

She went on to add that, under her leadership, the Bureau of Land Management would be distributed to the states and also attempted to touch on energy production concerns in the US.

“I am pro-fossil fuels oil and gas and I especially want to explore nuclear,” she proclaimed. “But I think that our tribal lands are impacted severely when we are shutting down our coal-fired energy plants.”

“States like Colorado, we have some of the cleanest coal in the entire world, and that affects those tribal lands down the road that are getting energy, and they’re forced to burn wood in some areas, which we know is as much dirtier, a much dirtier way to produce heat.”

She openly promised to promote oil drilling on Tribal land, if Donald gives her the gig.

“We have a lot of drilling that takes place and I believe that that is a cleaner way to take care of the environment and extract those resources that we have been blessed with to use what’s given to us by the earth to produce this energy in a clean and efficient way rather than just covering it up with solar panels and wind turbines killing so many vital species,” she stated.

For the record, multiple scientists have thoroughly debunked the notion that wind turbines pose any sort of significant risks to bird species when compared to the destruction and loss of their natural habitats.
