Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has spoken out after video emerged appearing to show House Republican Lauren Boebert engaging in what the New York congresswoman described as “sexually lewd acts” in a Colorado theater on September 10.
Boebert and a male companion were thrown out of the Buell Theatre in Denver after repeatedly vaping, using a cell phone and “causing a disturbance” during a performance of musical Beetlejuice.
Surveillance footage from inside the theater appeared to show Boebert’s male accomplice groping her breasts, and then being groped in turn by the Republican firebrand. In a statement, Boebert apologized for her behavior, which she claimed “fell short of my values,” but made no reference to the alleged sexual acts.
Ocasio-Cortez responded to the controversy in a one-minute video posted to her 323,000 TikTok followers on Thursday, in response to a viewer’s question.
She commented: "All I gotta say is I can’t go out to lunch in Florida in my free time, not doing anything, just eating outside and it’s wall-to-wall Fox News coverage and then you have a member of Congress engaging is sexually lewd acts in a public theater and they got nothing to say.”
“I danced to Phoenix once in college and it was like all over the place. But putting on a whole show of their own at Beetlejuice and there’s nothing? I’m just saying be consistent. That’s all I’m asking for. Equal treatment. I don’t expect it, but come on.”
So tone deaf. You don’t have to be prudish to disapprove of adults fondling each other in an all ages theater.
“You don’t have to be prudish to disapprove of adults fondling each other in an all ages theater.”
Yes, yes you do have to be prudish to get mad at people making out in public. Like I said before though, hypocrisy doesn’t work when it comes to sex, saying these people you hate like doing it isn’t going to make them seem like the bad ones, and pointing out FOX not covering it isn’t a news flash
Why did you phrase it like this “Yes, yes you do have to be prudish to get mad at people making out in public.”? (Edit: Lol your profile explains it all real well but I still want to hear you say it) Because flashing her tits and giving a handjob with kids around while blowing vape smoke at a pregnant women are a little different than “making out in public”
I had a gf when I was younger that loved banging in public places. But you don’t actually do that in a place with children, especially when you are vocally encouraging people to terrorize LGBTQ+ folks as groomers.
