January 1, Why Rep Lauren Boebert’s Under Investigation

Published

on

Colorado state officials are investigating claims from a political organization that Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) misused campaign funds.

American Muckrakers PAC, the group behind efforts to oust Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R-N.C.), said it uncovered information indicating Boebert had used money that was “obtained illegally” to pay off $20,000 in tax liens on her business, Shooters Grill.

Last year, The Denver Post first reported that Boebert had used campaign funds to pay herself more than $22,000 in mileage reimbursements.

David B. Wheeler, President of American Muckrakers PAC, outlined the group’s findings in a letter to Joseph Barela, executive director of the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment, and state Attorney General Phillip Weiser.

“As you are both fully aware, utilizing an illegal source of funds or ill-gotten funds to pay off a tax lien is illegal in Colorado and under federal law,” Wheeler wrote in the June 1 letter. “In other words, you cannot use federal campaign funds to pay off your tax liens by reimbursing yourself for miles you didn’t drive. That is the very definition of ill-gotten funds. We believe Rep. Boebert did exactly this.”

American Muckrakers PAC said it received an email from Janet Drake, Colorado’s deputy attorney general, saying that the state Department of Law “requested investigative support” from the Colorado Department of Revenue and Department of Labor and Employment.

“We will collaborate with those agencies to investigate the issue you raised,” Drake wrote

Boebert refuted the allegations.

“This is another swing and miss from a partisan political group,” she said in a statement. “These false charges from 2020 have already been dismissed by the Federal Election Commission and disproven by the press. I represent over 50,000 square miles of Colorado; I connect with the people I serve rather than sitting at home in a basement like most Leftists.”

      Based on what..? Just reading what others wrote, or something off the internet. Gotta get facts before you open your mouth and say anything.

        Sadly, Leftists will latch on to ANYTHING that helps them to continue to believe that they haven’t been complete fools.

    Why don’t they investigate the representative from Minnesota who married her brother & gave him lots of money? They only investigate Republicans. Democrats are so corrupt. What about all the illegal money the Bidens get from China? They never investage the Biden Family!!!

    Whenever you make a dumb allegation that lacks merit, be assured that millions of people will be obliterating you on social media. Big Tech won’t be able to help you, because you deserve to be lambasted mercilessly. So don’t be stupid and continue to make up BS. We are watching out for you 24/7. You shall not escape the wrath of the Twitter Universe. I pity you if you stay stupid.

    Muckrakers are aptly named. They spread theirs widely as the trash they are.
