Rep. Lauren Boebert left a group of Jewish visitors to the Capitol bewildered Thursday morning when she asked them if they were doing "reconnaissance" after seeing them at an elevator at the Capitol.

Members of the group, which was meeting with Rep. Tom Suozzi, were wearing yarmulkes, and the person coordinating the group is Orthodox, with a traditional beard.

One witness said the group, along with other members of Congress, was waiting for an elevator. When the doors opened, Boebert stepped out of the elevator and looked the group of visitors “from head to toe,” the witness said. Boebert then asked if they were there to conduct “reconnaissance.”

“When I heard that, I actually turned to the person standing next to me and asked, ‘Did you just hear that?’” a rabbi who was with the group told BuzzFeed News.

1. She is absolutely heinous.

[gab13by13]

2. Yeah well it's a joke

if no one investigated who gave the Capitol tours to the insurrectionists. Who disabled the panic buttons?

[Mr.Bill]

3. I would have said:

Yes, we were coming to see you because we understand you're in charge of that.

[Marcuse]

4. What, no backpack in the elevator joke?

[Hekate]

5. To her and her ilk, everyone is an enemy of everybody else, because it's a war...

[The Magistrate]

6. Interesting, Sir

In the same way people saying 'Don't shove the gay agenda down our throats!' is interesting.

In human beings here is an urge to confess, its part of the urge to communicate socially. One way or another, people will tell on themselves.

So Boebert did conduct reconnaissance tours for rebel traitors prior to the storming of the Capitol.

The question wouldn't have occurred to anyone who had not.

[Mr.Bill]

11. I've always found it curious

that they are so preoccupied with things being shoved down their throats. I ask them about it whenever they say that.

[soldierant]

48. Oh, my? Good point.

[WA-03 Democrat]

14. exactly

pure 100% projection. She has no sense of humor.

[Justice matters.]

17. Bingo. It's the subconscious feeling of guilt that triggers Psychological Projection. nt

[dchill]

19. Your words give construct to an obvious conclusion.

In other words, that's what I thought, too.

[niyad]

36. I am reminded of a very old adage: a man never thinks to look under a bed unless

he has hidden there himself.

[Hieronymus Phact]

45. Thanks for an insightful post -nt

[The Jungle 1]

7. She is a filthy pile of three day old puke.

You are not an American get out of my country.

[LaMouffette]

8. "She who dealt it, smelt it!" Seems like classic projection to me. She MUST have been one of the

"tour guides" giving insurrectionists tours of the Capitol prior to January 6.

(If this is already an established fact, sorry for not being up to speed on this aspect of Jan. 6.)

And furthermore, how unspeakably horrible of her to say something like that to people visiting the Capitol. What a sorry POS she is.

[barbtries]

9. GFG

since as far as i know i just made that one up, it's good fucking gawd.

our country is cursed somehow that people as bigoted and stupid as she is can hold public office.

[niyad]

37. Actually, I figured that was what it probably was. Perfectly fitting.

[barbtries]

41. nothing surprises me with these people anymore.

but they can, and do, still shock me. GFG was literally my first response when I read that.

[SunSeeker]

10. Republicans are always projecting. nt

[niyad]

38. Suddenly I thought of a reverse protein spill.

[Behind the Aegis]

12. Always remember...she is a MEMBER of CONGRESS and was VOTED IN

[sakabatou]

27. IIRC, that's because her opponent dropped out due to threats

[WA-03 Democrat]

13. I read somewhere the worst

thing you could say about someone was they were humorless. She is psychotic.

[azureblue]

15. she is an anti semitic racist

And proved it right here She knows what Jewish religious trappings are. Is essence, she was saying, "we don't want your kind around here".

[LetMyPeopleVote]

16. This is a case of projection

Boebart is alleged to have conducted reconnaissance tours just before Jan. 6

[Emile]

18. Is she a Neo-Nazi, KKK, or White Nationalist?

[Justice matters.]

20. She is a Fascist.

No doubt. A stupid Fascist.

[Marcuse]

21. Yes.

[Emile]

24. Yes to all three!

You may be right!

[reACTIONary]

33. Yes. nt

[IronLionZion]

50. She assists insurrectionists with recon

that's why she thinks this way

[Wingus Dingus]

22. So she confused Orthodox Jewish appearance with Muslim appearance?

She loves to openly mock Muslims, so I'm guessing she thought she could take a cheap shot with no penalty. SHE IS SERIOUSLY THAT IGNORANT. Either that or she really was knowingly being anti-Semitic, that's certainly possible.

[Wuddles440]

29. I thought the same thing...

as soon as I read the article because she's an absolute imbecile!

[Beastly Boy]

23. I totally get her anxiety.

I too lose sleep at night over terrifying thoughts of 2000 Hassidic Jews armed with Tefilin and Menoras storming the US Capitol and screaming "Hang Pence!"

[Behind the Aegis]

25. LOL!

2000 Jews, 3000 opinions! HAHA!

[monkeyman1]

26. how come no ethics complaint filed ??

[sakabatou]

28. Wondering that myself.

[monkeyman1]

31. qualifications are really low bar for republican's !! miss G.E.D. & perv' !

[Chrisdutch]

40. Lovely Lauren Bobo

Because, she's white, conservative and a Republican. She's also so low on the food chain she has to watered twice a week.

[monkeyman1]

42. she do remind me of a plant form !! poison oak ?

[Initech]

30. What a colossal POS!

[hadEnuf]

32. This bimbo townie is an embarrassment to Colorado and the country.

How could anyone with a shred of intelligence or decency vote for something like her?

[niyad]

51. You answered your own question.

[TeamProg]

34. People who cheat think everyone cheats. People who lie think everyone lies.

People who steal think everyone steals.

Poeple who are bad drivers think everyone is a bad driver.

Politicians who lead reconnaissance missions think every politician leads reconnaissance missions.

[dupagelib]

35. Reconnaissance?

I imagine if she saw a group of middle aged white men wearing brown shirts she would wonder if they were doing reconnaissance. Oh no she wouldn't, she would recognize them as the tea party caucus.

[monkeyman1]

43. bet she is glad for spell check !!

[Sapient Donkey]

39. I remember when there was a time in which that would get a person to resign in disgrace

[monkeyman1]

44. nowadays they get freedumb medal!

[BidenRocks]

47. Learn the basics

Just say Shalom.
It's the same as Aloha

[Linda Ed]

49. With no education

other than getting her GED after she was elected, surprised she even knew what the word meant.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

52. Well, SOMEBODY has to recon to locate targets.

Those Secret Jewish Space Lasers don't aim themselves, y'know.

[BeckyDem]

53. Her fans are her constituents, her voters.

Have they renounced her? Don't hold your breath.

Her endorsements, her donors, where are they now?

Racism keeps expanding in congress.


Vile human being.

[Sparky 1]
