At a recent dinner for the Knox County (Tennessee) Republican Party, alleged former prostitute and abortion for her but not others devotee Lauren Boebert (Q-Colorado) tells the attendees, “It is something else to be serving in our nation’s Capitol right now,” the reprobate from Rifle recites. “In all seriousness, there is a calling on each and every one of you to be involved, for you to rise up. It is an honor to serve in this time. I believe that, many of us in this room believe that we are in the last of the last days. … You get to be a part of ushering in the second coming of Jesus.” (You can find the longer version here; it wasn’t suitable to post here.)
Set aside the creepiness of the message. Set aside the cult-like presentation given by the GED Congresswoman. Set aside that her husband, who whipped out his wang in front of teenaged girls at a bowling alley, is still allowed in public. Boebert is speaking at a political event, not at a religious revival. This is the official position of a member of the Republican Party: that we live in the “end times” when Jesus Christ Himself will descend from Heaven and remind those fucking conservatives that He cured the sick, welcomed strangers, forgave sinners, and taught that people should live in peace, all while giving unto Caesar that which is Caesar’s–everything conservatives despise.
