‘Bravo!’: Lauren Boebert thanks Dems for being responsible for the sale of tens of millions of firearms

June 4, 2022 | | Print Article

In a speech that some are calling the best of her career, Representative Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) set the House floor on fire with a damning indictment of “freedom haters” and the Biden administration for their hypocritical push to disarm Americans.

“Madam Speaker, I want to begin this evening by thanking my Democrat colleagues for their outstanding work in encouraging millions of Americans to celebrate their Second Amendment rights by purchasing their first, second, or even one-hundredth firearm,” she began, oozing sarcasm.

And she was just warming up.

“From the left’s riots in cities across America to Biden’s threat to strip away our basic constitutional rights, Democrats are single-handedly responsible for the sale of tens of millions of firearms,” Boebert continued. “Bravo! Well Done. And, I hear that the interest has begun to peak when it comes to the sale of F-15s.”

That quote raised some eyebrows among those who have memory-holed one of President Biden’s more incendiary remarks: “And those who — not many are saying it anymore, but there was a while there where people were saying that, you know, the Tree of Liberty is watered with the blood of patriots, and what we have to do is you have to be able to take on the government when they’re wrong. Well, to do that, you need an F-15, you know? Or you need an Abrams tank.”


The rabble-rousing congresswoman then aimed her sights on President Biden and his scandal-ridden son, Hunter.

“Now, I have some questions for these freedom haters,” she stated. “When are you going to call on the chief executive, the basement dweller, to hold his own son accountable for his gun crimes?”

“Hunter Biden lied on a federal firearms application, which is punishable by up to ten years and a $250,000 fine, of which ten percent will not be going to the Big Guy,” Boebert said. “Rules for me, but not for my crackhead, parmesan-smoking, gun criminal son.”

“What about the disposal of Hunter Biden’s gun in a back alley dumpster and why was the Secret Service involved in locating this firearm?” she asked. “Can you just imagine for half a second if Donald Trump, Jr. was involved in firearms crimes and his dad ordered the Secret Service to cover it up?”

“That’s just the start of this hypocrisy,” she said. “Biden will call widely-purchased firearms ‘weapons of war,’ but then he’ll tell you you need an F-15 or nuke to keep the federal government in check. He will target so-called ‘merchants of death,’ but celebrate the 600 abortion clinics across America.”

“This regime will encourage riots, defund the police, and try to take away Americans’ right to self-defense,” Boebert concluded.

A video of the speech was posted to TikTok and quickly made its way to Twitter, where the virtual applause was thundering.

“Holy Sh*t,” exclaimed the user who posted it.

Holy sh*t, indeed.

Twitter erupted.
