QAnon Rep Hails Taliban For “Building Back Better”

Mediaite reports:

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) was met with immediate backlash after tweeting Monday that “the Taliban are the only people building back better.”

The quick fall of the government in Afghanistan has alarmed translators who assisted the U.S., female politicians, and others who have been scrambling to get out of the country for fear of their safety.

Boebert currently is assigned to the Committee on Natural Resources; the Subcommittee on Indigenous Peoples of the U.S.; the Subcommittee on Water, Oceans, and Wildlife; and the Committee on the Budget.

This is the most disgusting and disturbing thing I have ever seen from a sitting member of Congress. Siding with the Taliban over the United States must be condemned immediately by the @GOP, and @GOPLeader McCarthy needs to strip Rep. Boebert from her committee assignments. pic.twitter.com/yU3w0SHTn3

Boebert and the Taliban share a lot in common: they both bash gays, love guns, want religious rule, and are proudly anti-American and anti-vax. https://t.co/ylTIvGwsQ0

Wether it’s white supremacists in America or Taliban extremists in Afghanistan—Boebert is consistent in praising terrorists & insurrections. https://t.co/IyJ6F2hIhr
