Originally Published 2 years ago — by WION
Republican Congresswoman Lauren Boebert from Colorado has issued an apology for her disruptive behavior during a performance of the Beetlejuice musical in Denver. Boebert acknowledged that she "fell short of her values" and expressed regret for the unwanted attention her actions brought to the community. She also mentioned that her ongoing divorce has contributed to a challenging personal time for her and her family. Boebert and her male companion were asked to leave the musical for vaping, recording video, and disturbing others during the performance. CCTV footage reportedly showed her companion fondling her breasts and Boebert petting his crotch. Boebert initially denied the vaping allegations but later joked about the incident on social media. She has faced criticism in the past for making bigoted statements against marginalized communities.
