    Memes are educational.

    "Among the most prominent allegations are that Boebert conducted a four-year “romantic and sexual relationship” with a senior female staffer, named as Clarice Navarro Ratzlaff, then paid her $200,000 when Ratzlaff broke off the affair and threatened to file an ethics complaint of her own.

    Additionally, Wheeler alleges, Boebert had a sexual relationships around the same time with Raven Finegan, a congressional employee and the congresswoman’s district chief of staff, and Jeffrey Small, who was her chief of staff from 2021 to 2025."

      I think the points people are making are 1. they were her staff so she was in a position of power over them, 2. she’s married so (unless they’re in an open relationship, which is fine) cheated on her husband, and 3. is a huge hypocrite.

      Nothing really against sex there.

        Yeah, sleep around all you want (unless you’re in a monogamous relationship), but don’t go around espousing “family values” if you do.

      “You know not all women are in to people just because they have political power.”
      No but the kind of women who’ll double up on a person like me are.

            Oh come on, don’t lie to yourself, you gotta admit that she’s kinda hot. Plus she’s got those crazy eyes and you know how the saying goes: crazy in the head, crazy in bed. I’d be more than happy to hit it and quit it.

              Can actually confirm… Was with a girl for almost for years. 3.5 of which were because she used some sort of blowjob based hypnosis technique to keep me from leaving her sooner, but she didn’t need a boyfriend, she needed a caseworker. She would regularly become convinced that I was cheating on her (I wasn’t), citing irrefutable evidence (such as my having to work late periodically). After a day or two of saying the most hurtful things she could think of to me, she wouldn’t decide that she was probably wrong; instead, she would announce that she forgave me, and aggressively do sex at me until I secretly convinced MYSELF that I could deal with this long term… Fun times though. Amy time of day, she could be brought from zero, to, clawing my pants off by just approaching her from behind, reaching down her shirt, and squeezing her boob a few times.
