She's a Republican. If she ever tells the truth about any subject - even by accident - she will get sick and die, or her head will catch fire or sumpin'. :batting:

It's probably worth pointing out that by her logic, Boebert should resign. She received exactly ZERO "real" in-person votes.

Seeing as Colorado uses 100% mail-in ballots.

I had assumed her place was a bar. It's not. It is a standard small-town restaurant that does not serve alcohol. Given their need to be heavily armed for their biscuits and gravy, I guess it is probably good there is not drinking there.

However, Our Story page is very convincing.
Welcome to Shooters Grill

Shooters Grill is located on the South side of East 3rd Street in downtown Rifle. Gun-themed and old-timey American restaurant serving traditional breakfast, burgers & steaks [so burgers & steaks together because Oxford commas are commies]. Stop by our restaurant and enjoy great food and a VERY safe place to eat it [no high cholesterol, the food goes right through you]. Breakfast, Lunch, or Dinner, our food and service will make you happy. That is our place: Happy, safe and fun [no oxford comma again]. We’re armed and ready to feed you [hot lead].

What We Make

The second part was a better.

I was going through the Facebook feed of Rifle, Colorado. BooBoo's need for being armed for safety is such as sack of shit. It is your typical small town where you can fall asleep on the sidewalk and nobody would rob you of anything. While there are the occasional burglaries, assaults, and even homicide (I had 2 in close proximity when I lived up in a county of 14k.. both were domestic), most of it was accidents, especially on I-70, owners missing dogs and cats, and dogs, cats, rabbits, and ducks missing owners.

Apparently, Amtrak Zephyr goes through Rifle. I didn't even notice. The train does not stop there.

Follow the link if you dare, she's been busy, I count 97 amendments from her, most of them are her by her lonesome.

A few of my personal favorites:
  • Prohibits funding to support public encampments comprised of homeless individuals on the State or local level.
  • Eliminates funds appropriated in this bill from being used to fund disinformation education programs.
  • Prohibits funds from being used to list the greater sage-grouse as an endangered species.
  • Prohibits funds made available by this Act from being used to implement, administer, or enforce the final rule entitled ‘‘Endangerment and Cause or Contribute Findings for Greenhouse Gases Under Section 202(a) of the Clean Air Act’’ published by the Environmental Protection Agency in the Federal Register on December 15, 2009 (74 Fed. Reg. 66496 et seq.).
  • Prohibits funds for the United States Postal Service to electrify vehicles.
  • Prohibits funds from going to sanctuary cities.
  • Reduces funds to the IRS by $416,897,000.
  • Prohibits bonuses for IRS employees.
Anyway, you get the drift. Not all of them are bad mind you, there is stuff like this sprinkled in as well:
  • Redirects $3 million to suicide prevention and mental health services for veterans from VA admin.

Prohibits funds for the United States Postal Service to electrify vehicles.
Um... how would that work in a Congressional budget? The USPS is self-funded so receives no funds from Congress.

She's a special kind of stupid.

As for her rather exact $416,897,000 IRS reduction, the reason is:
The Committee recommends a total of $29,099,897,000 in new discretionary budget authority for fiscal year 2022, which
includes allocation adjustments of $416,897,000 for tax enforcement
Ths is from the Appropriations committee report.

She has some stuff redirecting funds to deal with the western drought and fires. While I can see a reason for funding those, it seems odd from her. I thought God and Guns fix everything. Why do they need funds. It's just a God-created drought so it's all good. As for the fire, I'm sure Guns and Prayer should fix that.

Some of her VA stuff is actually good, at least in the concept of what is being funded, not where it is being transferred from. Others are downright stupid.

I never thought there would ever be any definable group of people more cruel, base, and obstructionist than the Tea Party, but the Magats surpass the Tea Party on all counts by at least an order of magnitude.

Boebert wins round one. This case is one where Boebert has blocked someone from her Twitter. The judge seems have basically said that Boebert really isn't a state actor and the account isn't run by the government.
Representative Boebert, or any member of Congress, has almost no
power to act on behalf of the United States government. Her authorized
powers, and those of her colleagues, are important, but few. She can participate in the election of the Speaker of the House and other House Officers. U.S. Const. art. I, § 2, cl. 5. She can propose bills (including the
exclusive power, along with her fellow Representatives, to initiate revenue bills) and vote on bills. See id. art. I, § 7, cl. 7. She can vote on articles of impeachment of the President and other civil officers. Id. art. II,
§ 4. And she can vote for the President if a majority of the electoral college fails to elect a candidate. Id. amend. XII. Those are profound powers, and ultimately Congress as a whole is in control of the ship of state.
But its individual members, unlike executive branch officials, generally
do not have authority to act on behalf of the state.

The problem with the QOP is that Biden can literally do what they ask, and they will attack that. They will attack anything Democrats do, it doesn't matter if it is what they wanted anyway or not.
