AOC Rips Lauren Boebert as a ‘Useless Piece of Furniture’

Lauren Boebert entered the United States House of Representatives with Madison Cawthorn and Marjorie Taylor Greene. All 3 have seemingly taken turns being the most controversial member of Congress. Cawthorn will now be leaving the House and Greene will be returning. But Boebert has largely been quiet lately.

That changed this week following the shooting in Uvalde, Texas. Boebert, like many Republicans, is pushing to do absolutely nothing about the scourge of gun violence in the US. The Colorado Rep, though, was countered by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
Following the shooting, Boebert, who fetishizes guns at her restaurant, wrote on Twitter, “you cannot legislate away evil.”
Cortez countered her colleague, “Why even be in Congress if you don’t believe in doing your job? Just quit and let someone who actually gives a damn do it instead of acting like a useless piece of furniture when babies are shot with AR15s that we let teen boys impulse buy before they can legally have a beer.”
