“What exactly are you implying with that?” one critic asked the Colorado Republican, in light of the deadly U.S. Capitol riot.
Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) faced backlash this week for releasing an ad attacking Democrats and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) that ended with a gunshot sound.
In the spot, the QAnon-endorsing first-term lawmaker called on Pelosi to “tear down” the security fence that was put up around the U.S. Capitol following the Jan. 6 insurrection, when a violent mob of then-President Donald Trump’s supporters overran the Capitol building.
“It’s time to cut the crap and remember, this is the people’s house,” Boebert bombastically declared.
The video concluded with audio of a gunshot, followed by the sound of the weapon being reloaded and fired again.
