The second amendment is absolute and it's here to stay. A recent report states that Americans own 46% of the world’s guns. I think we need to get our numbers up boys and girls.
Eh. I'm a fan of Cohen, but I don't think he is right on this one. It seems pretty clear that she is looking to get him out of office, not dead. Especially with the impeachment talk. YMMV.

Disagree, having followed many fundie types over the decades, she's asking that god strike Biden down. Removal through impeachment isn't going to happen as the Dems in the Senate won't vote for it.

It's from Psalm 109:8.
And yes, based on the history of these nuts (for instance praying imprecatory prayer re Obama) it is a death wish for Biden.
THis is pretty much how all the Republicans performed in the hearing. They testified themselves instead of asking questions. When they did ask questions, like the two questions Bobo asked, they completely ignored the responses because the answers to their questions were not to their liking.
She asks if he shadow banned her, he said "no" so she ranted on and on about how she was shadow banned for a "joke tweet". Likely she was not shadow banned but actually banned due to election misinformation.
Twitter Explodes Over Lauren Boebert's Clueless State Of The Union Tweet

Raise your hand if you’re old enough to remember who was president in 2020, when schools were closed down due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) was torn apart on Twitter after she seemed to forget that detail in a tweet about President Joe Biden’s State of the Union address on Tuesday.
“Hey Joe, YOU CLOSED THEM!” she tweeted, citing a line from Biden’s speech in which he said: “In the midst of the COVID crisis, when schools were closed and we were shutting down everything, let’s recognize how far we came in the fight against the pandemic itself.”
A note appeared below the tweet, pointing out that readers had “added context they thought people might want to know.”
It included links to two articles: One about the shutdown of K-12 schools in the spring of 2020, when Donald Trump was president, and a second noting that Trump said decisions about school closures would be up to the governors of each state.
Critics didn’t hold back with “extra context” in retweets and replies:
See my post in the Twitter thread. I agree with Bobo that it wasn't a coincidence that Twitter went down during prime time. Funny thing is, that all those tweets that people obviously hit the button to save during prime time hours are showing up at 2 AM on my feed as brand new tweets but they have time stamps that indicate they were created during prime time hours. And most of them are outtakes of the disastrous backfire committee meeting. I think Bobo would have been more angry if Twitter didn't go down because she would have seen the above hashtag trending during prime time instead of at 2 AM.
Rep. Lauren Boebert raged against historic performance of 'Black national anthem' at the Super Bowl

The actor Sheryl Lee Ralph performed "Lift Every Voice and Sing" at the Super Bowl on Sunday.
The hymn, known as the Black national anthem, was sung alongside "The Star-Spangled Banner."
Rep. Lauren Boebert didn't approve, suggesting the hymn is divisive.
Rep. Lauren Boebert railed against "wokeness" after a song known as the Black national anthem was performed live and on the field at the Super Bowl on Sunday for the first time.
The far-right Colorado lawmaker said in a tweet that appeared to refer to the actor Sheryl Lee Ralph's performance of "Lift Every Voice and Sing" that the NFL was trying to "divide" the country.
"America only has ONE NATIONAL ANTHEM," she wrote. "Why is the NFL trying to divide us by playing multiple!? Do football, not wokeness."
She's right about the boxes, though. I went for a walk with ol' Wifehorn just now, and I stopped by the government box - it's at the end of our driveway - and there was a document from Joe Biden in it! He wants me to send him money!
