Like many Republican lawmakers, Lauren Boebert has long complained about the 'Biden crime family.' At the same time, the Colorado Rep. has had plenty of issues in his own clan including an acrimonious divorce and now the felony arrest of her son Tyler.
Despite the hypocrisy of Boebert, Democratic Senator John Fetterman thinks that people should give the family of the Republican a break.
The Pennsylvania Senator wrote on his Twitter page:
"This is a family in crisis and the recreational cruelty I see on social media needs to be out of bounds. I know the impact this has on children. I'm calling for restraint because cruelty has substantial collateral damage. We can't ever forget that they didn't sign up for this."
The Colorado Republican issued a statement on her son's issues. It read, "I love my son Tyler, who has been through some very difficult, public challenges for a young man and the subject of attention that he didn’t ask for. It breaks my heart to see my child struggling and, in this situation, especially when he has been provided multiple opportunities to get his life on track."
Boebert also noted in her statement, "As an adult and father, Tyler will take responsibility for his actions and should be held accountable for poor decisions just like any other citizen."
