#BoebertReportCard, expenses. In case you wondered who Chucklehead @RepBoebert has on staff and how much they're paid to ignore you, these are the figures from her 3rd qtr disbursements. These are taxpayer dollars. Poor Jake Settle isn't getting paid very much @tobymorton
And here's how much she's paying in rent for her district offices, and to whom.
She also had six paid interns during some or all of 3rd quarter. Not listing their names, as I'm not sure of their ages, and there's no point in embarrassing them.
Ah, sweet smell of freedom. Friends, I have been released from the Twitter Big House, and I am here to report on my time there.
The air is fetid inside, rank with the odious sweat of politicians run amok, and doctors of questionable ethics, and
seditionists chafing from their confinement. Or it might be their nether regions had not been washed in some time.
Upon my arrival, I protested loudly that I had not received a Miranda warning. Not for nothing had I watched Perry Mason in my youth, not to mention Judge Judy and
Night Court.
My captors smugly pointed to the Terms of Service. I hung my head low. Score one for the oppressors.
Then I claimed my right to legal counsel, but the finest lawyers in all of Twitterdom had blocked me. In my hour of need, Rudy Giuliani ignored me. Jenna Ellis
For today’s #boebertreportcard, let’s look at the seven resolutions Chucklehead was bragging about as “accomplishments” this weekend. (A thread)
1 Cosponsor: Doug Lamborn, R-CO
This is a House Resolution, with no enforcement mechanism. If passed, it basically says, “We want the USS Pueblo back.” Which has been US policy since the ship was captured by North Korea in 1968.
11 Cosponsors, mostly members of the Freedumb Caucus. This is another House Resolution with no binding power, just a lot of whereas paragraphs.
Chucklehead @repboebert posted her “by the numbers” self-assessment yesterday. Let’s use this edition of the #boebertreportcard to look at those numbers.
20,168 Calls with your Congresswoman
One wonders if this includes all the voicemails from us unhappy constituents? From a sheer numbers perspective this one doesn’t add up. If she worked 362 days in 2021 (she didn’t) that’d be over 55 calls a day. Maybe she means with her staff.
62 Mobile Office Hours
Now this sounds like she made herself available, but no. These “mobile office hours” involve her taxpayer funded staff going to places in the district, usually for an hour at a time, then packing up and moving on to the next place.

A long #BoebertReportCard today. There have been a lot of votes in the House.
The Durango Herald had an editorial that mentioned how Boebert has been busy metaphorically extending her middle finger rather than representing her constituents, and that middle finger had a rigorous
workout over the last couple of days.
She gave a middle finger to Indigenous Peoples by votinng no on the Indian Buffalo Management Act. Also on the Agua Calinete Land Exchange Fee to Trust Confirmation Act. And another middle finger on the To amend title VI of the Social
Security Act to extend the coverage of Coronavirus Relief Fund payments to Tribal Governments.
She gave a big middle finger to those dealing with opioid addictions by voting no on the Synthetic Opiod Danger Awareness Act. She was one of only 14 to vote against it. Oh, and
