U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) released a statement after appearing to have a little too much fun at a showing of “Beetlejuice” which wound up getting her booted from the Denver theater performance.

On Friday, the 36-year-old mother of four and grandmother of one apologized for the scene created in the theater. She is attributing poor judgment to her recent split from her husband of 18 years, Jayson. She filed for divorce in May, citing “irreconcilable differences.”
“There’s no perfect blueprint for going through a public and difficult divorce, which over the past few months has made for a challenging personal time for me and my entire family. I’ve tried to handle it with strength and grace as best I can, but I simply fell short of my values on Sunday,” Boebert claimed in her statement.
After being asked by a pregnant woman to not vape in Denver’s Buell Theatre, Boebert ignored her and it was caught on video. The conservative called the woman “a sad and miserable person,” according to the New York Post. Now, she is admitting to using the electronic device inside the theater after her campaign team originally claimed that audience members mistook “heavy fog machines” for vape pen smoke.
“Whether it was the excitement of seeing a much-anticipated production or the natural anxiety of being in a new environment, I genuinely did not recall vaping that evening when I discussed the night’s events with my campaign team while confirming my enthusiasm for the musical. Regardless of my belief, it’s clear now that was not accurate; it was not my or my campaign’s intention to mislead, but we do understand the nature of how this looks.,” Boebert contended.
It’s true, I did thoroughly enjoy the AMAZING Beetlejuice at the Buell Theatre and I plead guilty to laughing and singing too loud!
Everyone should go see it if you get the chance this week and please let me know how it ends! https://t.co/8JHypcCKsP

The congresswoman went on to say in her statement that she and her team will have to earn back the public’s trust.
Boebert was also filmed with Democratic Aspen bar owner Quinn Gallagher engaged in a groping session. She was reportedly loudly singing, dancing, taking selfies, and long videos during the performance as well.
The Republican firebrand flipped off the ushers as she was ejected from the venue. She also vowed to report them over the incident.
“Do you know who I am?” she was quoted as saying in an incident report. “I am on the board” (and) “I will be contacting the mayor.”
Of course, the Left is hypocritically running with all this.

“The two guests at first refused to leave the venue, even after an employee threatened to get the police, the theater said. Once a police officer was on the way, the two left, the theater said,” the Associated Press reported.
Boebert is seeking a third term in Congress, and spectacles such as this one are being used to smear her. She is expected to face Democratic challenger Adam Frisch in the general election.
Boebert’s campaign manager, Drew Sexton, confirmed in a statement that the congresswoman was booted from the musical but denied she was vaping at the time it happened.
“I can confirm the stunning and salacious rumors: in her personal time, congresswoman Lauren Boebert is indeed a supporter of the performing arts (gasp!),” Sexton noted and then added that Boebert “pleads guilty to singing along, laughing and enjoying herself.”
Despite the theater spectacle and the Left pounding on it, conservatives are not swayed from supporting Boebert:

Every file on Hunter Biden’s laptop is a far bigger scandal than Lauren Boebert’s date at a theatre.
Give it a rest. We need her in Congress!
