Furious Rep. Lauren Boebert blasts claim she had sex with 3 staffers, including 2 women
New York Post • • nation
Key Points:
- Rep. Lauren Boebert vehemently denies allegations of having sexual relationships with three of her staffers, calling the claims a politically motivated smear by David Wheeler, a known critic with a history of dubious accusations against her.
- Wheeler's complaint, which includes claims of a threesome involving former Rep. Matt Gaetz, has been dismissed as invalid by Boebert due to House Ethics Committee rules that prevent accepting complaints filed within 60 days of an election and require certification by a lawmaker.
- The staffers named in the complaint have all denied the allegations, and Boebert emphasized the personal and professional harm caused by these unfounded claims, urging journalists to verify facts before publishing.
- Wheeler previously made false claims about Boebert's past, including a debunked escort allegation, and later filed a defamation suit against her, which was ultimately dismissed.
- Boebert has publicly condemned sex scandals in politics before and apologized for a past incident involving inappropriate behavior at a theater, highlighting her complex public persona.
