Lauren Boebert escorted out of “Beetlejuice” musical in Denver after “causing a disturbance”
Boebert campaign manager says congresswoman was just “enthusiastically” enjoying Sunday’s show

U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert was escorted out of a Sunday night performance of the “Beetlejuice” musical in downtown Denver, accused by venue officials of vaping, singing, recording and “causing a disturbance” during the performance.

In an incident report shared with The Denver Post on Tuesday afternoon, officials with Denver Arts & Venues wrote that two patrons were asked to leave the city-owned Buell Theatre during the performance of the touring Broadway show. They previously were issued a warning during the intermission regarding behavior that prompted three complaints from other theatergoers, the report says.

The report does not name Boebert as one of the patrons or identify the other person. But her campaign office — while disputing the behavior alleged — confirmed that she was escorted from the Buell on Sunday night during the “Beetlejuice” show.

The incident report states that after receiving the intermission warning, about five minutes into the second act security officials received “another complaint about the patrons being loud and at the time (they) were recording.” Taking pictures or recording is not permitted at shows.

The report quotes one of the ushers: “They told me they would not leave. I told them that they need to leave the theater and if they do not, they will be trespassing. The patrons said they would not leave. I told them I would (be) going to get Denver Police. They said go get them.”

The Republican from Silt is running for a third time in 2024 to represent the 3rd Congressional District, which covers much of western and southern Colorado.

Drew Sexton, the campaign manager for Boebert, told The Post that the second-term congresswoman denied vaping during the show. She did use her cellphone to take a picture of the performance, unaware that photos weren’t allowed.

“I can confirm the stunning and salacious rumors: in her personal time, Congresswoman Lauren Boebert is indeed a supporter of the performing arts (gasp!) and, to the dismay of a select few, enthusiastically enjoyed a weekend performance of ‘Beetlejuice,’ ” Sexton wrote in a statement. He noted that The Post’s review of the show last week described it as “zany,” “outrageous,” and a ‘lusty riot.”

Boebert, he wrote, encourages everyone to see the play and its “fantastic cast, tremendous visuals and plenty of loud laughs” — but, he added, “with a gentle reminder to leave their phones outside of the venue.”

The report also said after the two patrons were escorted out and reached the building’s vestibule, they resisted leaving and said “stuff like ‘do you know who I am,’ ‘I am on the board’ (and) ‘I will be contacting the mayor.’ ”

Police arrived and stayed in the lobby of the Buell until Boebert and her companion left, according to the report.

While Sunday’s incident was resolved without much trouble, Boebert has found herself in trouble before. She was arrested and summonsed at least four times in the years leading up to her election to Congress in 2020.

In her first month in office, Boebert — known as an avid defender of the Second Amendment — reportedly attempted to walk through newly installed metal detectors, which sounded as she did. She then refused to turn over her bag to Capitol Police, who in turn refused to let her enter House chambers, according to reporters on the scene.

Last summer, her family made headlines when her husband reportedly threatened their neighbors during what the Garfield County sheriff described as a neighborhood disturbance. No arrests were made. In May, Boebert announced that she and her husband were divorcing.

Antivaxxer conspiracy mongering now hitting canine world as minority but increasing numbers of humans declining to get their dogs vaccinated against rabies.

When assholes refuse Covid vaccine at least their stupidity is their choice. Dogs don't have a choice. If they did, I really doubt they would choose rabies.
 
UAW Strike Puts Massive CEO-Worker Pay Gap in the Spotlight

"The CEOs gave themselves 40% pay increases in the last four years alone," United Auto Workers president Shawn Fain said from the picket line. "And they want to call us greedy."

https://www.commondreams.org/news/uaw-strike-ceo-pay

Could you just imagine if American workers got a 10% raise every year for the last 4 years. They might just be able to keep up with the corporate greed that is ending affordable housing, cheap food, etc., here in America.

In my lifetime. It is becoming more difficult to live in America, not easier. The way that it should be.

Greed is destroying America.

Not to mention, they already automatically get a COLA raise and they also already have profit sharing.

Marjorie Taylor Greene issued a tweet saying the new dress code hurts respect and etiquette. This is the person who displayed poster of Hunter Biden's dick pics in a Congressional hearing and emailed them as a fund raiser
 
After Republican freakout over Senate loosening dress code, Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania said if they would vote to keep government open an fund Ukraine, he would agree to save democracy by wearing a suit.
 
And these are the people who say evolution and global warming are too unlikely?
 
Republican Congressman Calls For General Mark Milley to Be Executed in Shockingly Homophobic Screed

Rep. Paul Gosar (R-AZ) published a shockingly violent and homophobic tirade against General Mark Milley, suggesting the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff be put to death.

Gosar’s Congressional office released a newsletter on Sunday which claimed that the FBI, the DHS, and other federal agencies allowed the U.S. Capitol to be attacked by Donald Trump’s rioting supporters on January 6. From there, the newsletter blasted Milley for speaking with Nancy Pelosi after the riot, agreeing with her that Trump was “crazy,” and assuring the former House speaker that Trump wouldn’t be able to seize control of America’s nuclear arsenal during his last days in office.

In addition, the newsletter called Milley “homosexual promoting” and “sodomy-promoting.”

Here’s what Gosar’s newsletter had to say about the general, including the call for him to be hanged:

After the riot was in full swing, the Chief’s request for National Guard was finally approved. But even after approval was given, General Milley, the homosexual-promoting-BLM-activist Chairman of the military joint chiefs, delayed. Of course, we now know that the deviant Milley was coordinating with Nancy Pelosi to hurt President Trump, and treasonously working behind Trump’s back. In a better society, quislings like the strange sodomy-promoting General Milley would be hung. He had one boss: President Trump, and instead he was secretly meeting with Pelosi and coordinating with her to hurt Trump. That is, when he wasn’t also secretly coordinating and sharing intelligence with the Chinese military. How this traitor remains in office is a question we need answered.​

Arizona's finest.......
 
Rock bottom? Former president and current candidate said Chairman of Joint Chiefs should be executed for treason and entire Republican party is silent. Including those who know better. Because they are afraid of a tweet. Or a primary. Because they like tax cuts for the rich and right wing judges so screw democracy. Because they want to hang on to power at all costs while ceding power to the most unqualified person to ever hold the office.
 
Media still trying to normalize Trump. How many front page headlines reporting threats against Millie? Zero? But Biden is old!

Media reporting Biden and Trump both holding events with striking UAW. No. Biden walked picket line with UAW. Trump invited by management to hold campaign event at non union plant, sponsored by virulently anti union Right to Work Committee, invitation only so his little feelings won't be hurt by anyone who opposes him. Or supports unions.

It isn't both sides.
 
The sides are different, it's true.

One side says:
"Hey, you, I'm going to bend you over and fuck your ass!"

The other side says:
"I dropped a coin worth $1000 on the floor right behind you. Since I love and respect you so much, if you turn around, bend over and pick it up, it's yours!"

And then they proceed to fuck your ass when you try to pick up the worthless penny.

I initially read this and thought you were making a broad comparison of Democrats and Republicans. I thought it was brilliant in that context.
