We figured GOP stooge Lauren Boebert had probably reached the peak of her audacity when she dared to actually heckle the United States President’s recent State of the Union address while Biden was somberly speaking about his late son Beau. But wouldn’t you know, she can go lower still.
As if her disgusting heckling fiasco wasn’t bad enough, the Colorado Republican House Representative (and Marjorie Taylor Greene’s BFF) is now reportedly using that very same childish, pathetic public outburst to fundraise donations for her own congressional campaign for reelection.
During his SOTU speech, President Biden was preparing to discuss his deceased son Beau Biden — a former officer in the Army Judge Advocate General’s Corps from Wilmington, Delaware, and former Deleware Attorney General — who passed away from brain cancer in 2015. Biden was using the heartbreaking story of his own son’s death to call on lawmakers to pass legislation that would help military veterans who had been exposed to deadly toxins while serving in Iraq and Afghanistan.
“A cancer that put them in a flag-draped coffin,” President Biden was in the middle of saying as Boebert so disrespectfully interrupted and heckled the President, yelling from her seat, “You put them in. Thirteen of them.”

Boebert was referring to United States servicemembers who lost their lives in a suicide attack during the military withdrawal from Afghanistan last summer.
Now, CBS4 in Denver reports that Boebert almost immediately peddled an email to her supporters after she showed her ass at the State of the Union event, claiming that she just “couldn’t help” but to rudely interrupt the President of the United States as he spoke about his dead son. Lauren has, of course, vehemently defended her nasty outburst amid serious backlash from both sides of the political fence.
“When Biden talked about flag-draped coffins I couldn’t help but call him out for causing the deaths of 13 brave members of our military who lost their lives because of his gross incompetence during the withdrawal from Afghanistan,” the GOP Congresswoman’s fundraising email reportedly read.
Punchbowl News published alleged screenshots of Boebert’s campaign email that read, “We expected bad, but the #SOTU is worse than we ever could’ve imagined. Let’s take our country back in 2022 -donate today and help us ensure victory!”
I truly mean it, from the bottom of my soul, when I say that these people have no low that they are not willing to sink to.
