You forgot to add "again" to your sentence.
Boebert's hypocritical "family values" family is the least surprising thing in this article. I'm more surprised that Colorado has a town called Rifle.
I'm more surprised he wasn't shot while breaking into cars in a town called rifle. I'm sure she'd be totally fine with it if he was, right? Or is that only minorities that deserve death for theft?

There seem to be a lot of geographic locations named Rifle around there, but it looks like the name originated at Rifle Creek which got its name from someone finding a rifle along its banks in the 19th century. If Wikipedia can be believed, that is.

Hey guys, be fair. Maybe he was just stealing to support the baby he had with a child who was "over 14, so it wasn't statutory rape, we totally swear.'
I forgot he had a kid. If having a kid doesn't grow you up, nothing will.
I thought he was under 18 when that happened? — not defending him
He was 17. IIRC, it would've still been illegal for him to have sex with her if she was 14 or younger, so they were very careful to specify that she was "over 14."

Aren't felonies a requirement for running for office as a Republican now?
I'm sure he will have a bright future as a member of Yall'Qaeda
You can skip the felony requirement if you have enough sexual assault allegations. Or if you’re a “female,” you just need to have gotten pregnant before 18.

Boebert's family is like Sarah Palin's family if you sprinkled-in more meth and rape of minors.

I really don't care what her shitty son does. She is much worse.
If this bitch wants to go after Joe Biden because of something Hunter Biden did/is accused of, then we damn well SHOULD care about what her son is doing. As they love to say, "the apple doesn't fall far from the tree."
If Republicans had no double standards, they'd have no standards at all.

Not to excuse his criminal activity, but I don't think it's really a surprise he's not particularly... well-adjusted, given who his mother is. I frankly would have been more shocked if I was told he was a functional, well-adjusted, pleasant human being.
which kinda sucks, honestly. it's not like these kids seem to have really had a great chance before, then she runs for congress.

Look past her chaotic family life… and focus on her clown show in Congress?

Personally I had no idea she was married with children. Wasn't she just kicked out of a movie theater for being stoned and giving some staffer a hanny? Or is that some other republican trainwreck.
She's a 37 year old divorced grandmother.
You're essentially correct, there, but slightly off on a couple details. About a month before her divorce finalized, she was kicked out of a musical for vaping and being rowdy with her new boyfriend.
and being rowdy with her new boyfriend.
Is that what we're calling it these days?
She split with her husband, ie the guy who exposed himself to her in a bowling alley when she was a minor.
Also the guy she fucked around with is a registered Democrat who owns a bar that does drag shows.
I'm not making any of this up

Hear me out now.
Perhaps she should not be givin' handies in auditoriums, and maybe she should be focusing more on the problems of her son and cut out the malarkey.
I don’t care if she’s fucking the whole town behind closed doors or in places that such behavior is welcome. But she needs to parent better, and if that takes time away from her sex life then so be it.
But also he’s 18 and has two parents. I’m not going to say it’s all her neglect. He’s an adult. And I wouldn’t be surprised if her parenting more would make it worse. She’s got shit morals

Oh, okay, we'll just look at your congressional record, public statements, and your own police records then
"Please look past my family's personal lives" she said during a press conference about Hunter Biden...
Give him the Hunter Biden treatment.
No thank you. I don't want to see MTG holding up a picture of his dick.

"criminal possession of a financial device"
'Had to look up what is considered a financial device...
Under 18-5-702 CRS, it is a criminal offense in Colorado to use, possess, or manufacture a blank credit card. Unlawful use of a financial transaction device encompasses credit cards, debit cards, ATM cards, or other financial devices. This crime can be a petty offense, misdemeanor, or a felony.''

Why is anyone surprised? Isn’t that her family values? Take what you want and sneer when you get caught?
Isn't he the one who also knocked up an under-aged girl?
What is a "financial device"?
In this case probably a stolen credit or debit card.
https://law.justia.com/codes/colorado/2022/title-18/article-5/part-9/section-18-5-903/
1 . A person commits criminal possession of a financial device if the person has in his or her possession or under his or her control any financial device that the person knows, or reasonably should know, to be lost, stolen, or delivered under mistake as to the identity or address of the account holder.
All of the charges look like CC fraud

Raising a bunch of shitbag people, who would’ve guessed!?!
I bet you her family and ilk blame people of color for all the crime, while their little shit head, white bread thief of a son is running around breaking into cars
Boebert is a terrible legislator, but her kids’ behavior and life choices have little to do with the record and views by which her fitness to represent should be judged.
There are so many good reasons not to vote for her. It validates Republican attacks on Hunter Biden as “how the game is played.”
The least we can do is be a bit more nuanced about how we joke about it.
I think the big difference is that this kid is barely 19. There’s a good chance that this behavior started while he was still under her roof. There’s even the possibility that he’s still living with her, which means she turned a blind eye to it all.
In comparison, Hunter has been an adult for decades. He already has a long career as a lawyer. His actions are his own.
