Boebert To Sue PAC Over Claim She Worked As Escort

Fox News reports:

Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., will take legal action against the Democrat political action committee (PAC) that claimed, without evidence, that she was an “unlicensed paid escort,” Fox News Digital has learned.

Boebert’s attorney sent a letter to the American Muckrakers PAC regarding the claims that she was an “unlicensed paid escort” who had “two abortions,” pledging to bring “civil defamation” lawsuits against the PAC.

“The law on this type of defamation is clear and this conduct will be subject to civil and criminal penalties. Attached is a letter from my attorney introducing our response to these lies.”

Mediaite reports:

Some left-leaning outlets ran with the report, which the PAC said is based on “an exhaustive investigation and a tip from a verified source close to this matter who has requested anonymity for fear of reprisals.”

Muckrakers published redacted images of text messages from the source, who also claimed Boebert and her husband had a “Meth drug problem” and that Boebert was also working as a stripper at the time.

Note: Until now I was leaving this story alone because there just wasn’t any corroboration of the claims made by Muckrakers PAC. But now that Boebert is going to sue, it’s a legit item.
