KYLE CLARK: You are pro-life without exceptions for rape and incest and life or health of the mother. Additionally, in 1993, you were arrested for violently assaulting your then-pregnant wife. Some people might see those two things at odds, but they both involve you exerting control over a woman’s body. Is that what Coloradans want from their governor?
GREG LOPEZ: Well, first of all, it wasn’t a violent situation. If you look, you know, if you go back and look…
KYLE CLARK: You were arrested for assault.
GREG LOPEZ: We were both arrested for assault. Both of us.
KYLE CLARK: And one of you was pregnant. So, again, the question is, do Coloradans want somebody who has a history, both in word and in physical action…
GREG LOPEZ: Let me tell you this Kyle…
KYLE CLARK: …of controlling the bodies of women?
GREG LOPEZ: Here’s the thing. There’s only been one perfect man that’s ever walked this earth, and we nailed him to the cross. I’m not a perfect man. I’ve made my mistakes, but I’ve learned from them. And I think most people learn from their mistakes. And I think really that’s what people want to hear.
KYLE CLARK: You don’t see it as an issue of control over women’s bodies.
GREG LOPEZ: No, I do not. I don’t understand how you could you connect those things.

I may be old fashioned, but I think that if you are going to ask questions about the assault, it is kinda nice to let the guy answer them rather than shouting him down.
The Colorado representative was diagnosed after going for surgery to have "an acute blood clot" removed.
She was taken to hospital after severe swelling in her upper left leg, her campaign staff said on Tuesday.
The surgery was successful and Ms Boebert is expected to make a full recovery, they added.
Medics say May-Thurner syndrome (MTS) is not necessarily dangerous in itself but can lead to complications and health risks.
It is a condition caused by a problem involving the right iliac artery, which carries blood to the right leg, and the left iliac vein, which returns blood from the left leg towards the heart.
These blood vessels naturally cross over each other in the pelvis. MTS results when the artery squeezes the vein, resulting in reduced blood flow in that vessel.
This may not lead to any symptoms at all, and some people do not know they have the condition, leading the US National Institutes of Health (NIH) to describe it as "clinically silent".
But reduced blood flow can increase the risk of blood-clot formation. If a clot travels to the heart, lungs or brain it can cause a blockage with potentially fatal consequences.
MTS often presents itself through pain or cramp in a person's arm or leg, accompanied by swelling or a discolouring of the skin. Veins can appear more pronounced.
Diagnosis may be confirmed following a CT scan, as was the case with Ms Boebert.

At the December soiree, which was the New York Young Republican Club’s annual gala, multiple witnesses saw a server tell Boebert they would not bring her any more alcohol, with one witness telling CNN the server told the congresswoman they believed she had been overserved. Throughout the night, Boebert also kept attempting to snap selfies with Trump, who was sitting at the same table as her. Eventually, Trump’s security detail stepped in and asked Boebert to stop, according to the witnesses, who attended the event and saw the interaction take place.

In the 1972 movie, Goldie Hawn played the ditzy friend of Eddy Albert Jr. Decent movie.
In the movie, she tells Eddy that she once dated a member of the Young Republican Club. Then she realized that there is no such thing as a young republican.
Just find one that will accept payment in handies.
Lauren Boebert's Son Says He Can't Find a Lawyer He Can Afford "We are working to hire an attorney, but it's just been kind of hard with the prices."
Donning an all-black suit and appearing by himself, Tyler Boebert showed up in Garfield County court today, April 11, looking extra spiffy as he was read charges and the punishments he's facing in connection to car break-ins and property thefts he allegedly committed in Rifle earlier this year.
"Thank you for the attire," said 9th Judicial District Judge John F. Neiley. "I appreciate it when people dress for court."
Despite the spiffiness, Representative Lauren Boebert's eldest son — who is now nineteen — went on to claim he was having trouble finding a lawyer that he could afford to represent him in the felony case.
"We are working to hire an attorney, but it's just been kind of hard with the prices," Tyler told Neiley. "Worst case scenario, if we can't get something figured out with the lawyer then we're going to apply for a public defender or whatever works best for me."

What happened to dad’s high-paying job? They’re not broke.
Tyler is an adult and a father. Maybe they are making him pay for his own lawyer? He doesn't have jack squat, he was ripping little old ladies off for 75 bucks.

Yeah, but spoiled rich kids do stuff like that for kicks. And I still believe drugs are involved.

BUT HIS LAPTOP!!
He probably needed those 75 bucks to pay the blind repairman and get his Laptop back. And the drugs you think you saw is just a pile of sawdust.

How about hiring a lawyer for your kid’s felony cases so taxpayers of Colorado don’t have to pay. Maybe (too) also try and get him to stop robbing people.

If a former President and the current frontrunner in the race for President can't intimidate and threaten jurors in their criminal trial, what chance do any of us stand? https://x.com/laurenboebert/status/1785345308815167755

FACT:
President Trump is being kept from exercising his First Amendment rights and defending himself against lies through a gag order from a liberal judge that donated to Biden.
This should scare every freedom-loving American.
If they can gag and fine a former President and the current frontrunner in the race for President, what chance do any of us stand?
