  1. Congresswoman [Lauren Boebert](https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/lauren-boebert) of [Colorado](https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/colorado) has accused celebrities [Ryan Reynolds](https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/ryan-reynolds) and [Barbra Streisand](https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/barbra-streisand) of forcing her out of her district and into a [Republican](https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/republican) primary in a district miles away from where she lives.

    Ms Boebert, the right-wing firebrand congresswoman and ardent supporter of former president [Donald Trump](https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/donald-trump), appeared on former Donald Trump adviser [Steve Bannon](https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/steve-bannon)’s podcast.

  2. Thought she was some sort of arch badass conservative juggernaut.

    Couldn’t overcome a couple of liberal Hollywood pussies?

  3. *Deadpool and Funny Girl* is the team-up we never knew we needed until now.

    Thank you for your service.

  4. This district ain’t big enough for more than *one* Funny Girl…

  5. There will be a joke about this in Deadpool 3, I guarantee it.

  6. If it only takes $3000 to scare away rifle barbie from her district, time to donate to her new opponent!

  7. Their combined $3000 was just too much for her to bear…

  8. She realizes that Deadpool and Mecha-Streisand are *fictional* characters, right?

  9. Time now to donate even more to the challenger in the 4th district.

  10. Surrender a Congressional seat to the Democrats. Big brain move, BoBo

  11. The victim complex of the GOP gets weirder and weirder every day

  12. No, it was the wolves. Gray wolves were released on the Western Slope and, not soon after, Granny Boebert flees for the Eastern plains. Not a coincidence.

  13. Who forced her to give an old fashioned at a children’s play?

  14. I am impatiently waiting for Ryan Reynold to respond to this in the absolutely perfect way he will.

  15. Ryan Reynolds is the most important person in US politics, as we all know.

  16. ‘They’re also responsible for traffic, poor weather and lower back pain…’

    🤡

  17. Ryan Reynolds peed my bed last night and Barbara Streisand didn’t even *try* to stop him.

  18. You can’t help but laugh. Being intimidated by Ryan Reynolds has to be a joke.

  19. Deadpool made her flee? I would’ve thought she was the type that loves DP.

  20. Personal responsibility = Everyone else is *personally responsible* for what happens when I do something 🤷

  21. Yep. It’s all Barbara Streisand, Ryan Reynolds and George Soros’ fault that Adam Frisch has been able to raise so much money to run against her.

    She doesn’t mention that she has lost support from Colorado Republicans in the 3rd. She turned a safe R district to a toss up one. Now she wants to go to the 4th district that doesn’t have as many Democratic voters in it as the 3rd because she wants to insure a win.

    Ken Buck is leaving because he couldn’t stand the election denialism, among other things. I’d be surprised if he would endorse Bobo.

    And don’t think for a second that the clips of her getting a breast exam at Beetlejuice are going to be all over the internet during the primary election.

  22. Barbra is even more amazing? I didn’t think it was possible.

  23. Alright, so we need two celebrities per any potential district.

  24. >She added that George Soros, the billionaire financier who bankrolls Democratic causes and candidacies, spent money on the race.

    There it is! The boogey man!

    Also, TIL Colorado doesn’t require members of Congress to live in the district they represent. That’s odd. I’d assumed Boebert would have had to relocate.

  25. >When you have Ryan Reynolds coming in and donating to the Democrat, it shows you that Hollywood is trying to buy their way into Congress

    “I’m not the problem, it’s all beloved actor Ryan Reynolds’ fault.”

  26. $10 says she’d still go see Beetlejuice with Ryan Reynolds.

  27. As a member of her former district, does anyone know Barbra’s and Ryan’s addresses, so that I can send flowers and a big fucking “Thank You” card?
