U.S. Representative Lauren Boebert (R-CO) celebrated her son Brody Boebert’s high school graduation Tuesday night, as her congressional colleague Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) conceded the GOP primary to President Trump’s pick, Ed Gallrein.
[NOTE: Gallrein, a neophyte politician who repeatedly refused to debate Massie, relied heavily on Donald Trump’s endorsement to unseat the incumbent.]
On Friday, Boebert shared photos of her with Massie and Trump separately and wrote: “Below is my friend Thomas Massie. He loves America and is fighting to save it. Also below is my friend and President, Donald Trump. He’s put his life on the line to save this great country. I support both of these men. I’ve worked with both to preserve freedom and liberty. And if that makes you angry, bless your heart.”

Sharing photos from the graduation ceremony after Massie lost his primary bid for re-election, Boebert addressed her son, Massie, Trump, and Jesus Christ, all in one post.
She wrote: “Tonight I celebrated my son’s graduation! My friend & Co-Chair gave his all in Kentucky! Trump is my President! Jesus is Lord! I look forward to a lifetime filled with joy, purpose, and gratitude. May God continue to bless America and the freedoms that make this nation the greatest.”

Boebert’s celebratory post is receiving mixed feedback. Diehard MAGA supporters called her a “traitor” (for endorsing Massie and not withdrawing her name from the Epstein Files discharge petition), while others commended her for sticking with Massie despite pressure from the White House.
As one X user replied, “You were doing so well until you threw in Trump is my president because he probably has his sights set on you next . You were gracious and backed a great man in Massie. You showed courage when everyone else ran with there tail tucked between their legs. Don’t lose your integrity over nobody. Congratulations on your son and thank you for standing up for what was right.”
