The activists who helped submarine far-right wing representative Madison Cawthorn’s reelection efforts in North Carolina are setting their sites on performative Colorado Rep. Lauren Boebert.
Insider reports that the American Muckrakers PAC, which was responsible for posting video of Cawthorn naked in bed and horsing around with another man, has launched the website fireboebert.com. They are searching for damning video, documents or photos that can be used to stop Republican Boebert from serving a second term in the U.S. Congress.
“Hi @RepBoebert - Ask @RepCawthorn about us,” the group posted. “We look forwarding to getting to know you.”
Cawthorn, who became the youngest Republican ever to be elected to the House of Representatives, became the youngest congressman to lose his reelection bid when he was defeated in Tuesday’s GOP primary in North Carolina. He’s 26.
Boebert — a conspiracy-theory-spouting high school dropout — will have her political fate decided by primary voters next month.
“I think we’re going to engage in that race pretty quickly,” American Muckrakers PAC CEO David B. Wheeler told Insider.
Boebert critics have posted photos and documents online meant to shame the lawmaker since she took office in 2020. Some images posted of Boebert behaving oddly were put online by the 35-year-old politician herself. At Christmastime, she posted an image of herself and young children brandishing firearms and standing in front of a pine tree.
Boebert, whose opponent in her race in Colorado released an ad in February where bull poop is falling from the sky, has not responded to Insider’s story.
Cawthorn claims the video posted by American Muckrakers PAC — which also targeted him with a Fire.madison.com website — only showed him and a friend being “foolish and joking.”
After being upset by a fellow Republican in his re-election bid, Cawthorn tweeted of a “Dark MAGA” initiative trumpeting “the rise of the new right,” which he said will oust traditional Republicans from office.
American Muckrakers PAC claims to be made up of people with differing political affiliations.
