Boebert Busted For Blatant Lie About The Impact Of ICE Agents At Airports

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) couldn’t resist trying to kiss Donald Trump’s fat posterior after he posted ICE agents at several airports across the country, ostensibly to help ease the long delays caused by a lack of funding to pay the salaries of Transportation Security Administration officials, who are caught in a budget standoff between the administration and Congress.

On Monday, ICE agents were sent to 14 U.S. airports including New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport, Pittsburgh International Airport and the world’s busiest airport, Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson.

In response, Boebert posted a video along with this message on social media: “ICE agents show up at airports. While the rest of our country has three-plus-hour waits–thanks Democrats–in Minneapolis Airport’s TSA, wait time right now is less than five minutes.”

Just one problem: No ICE agents were deployed at any airport in the state of Minnesota.

It didn’t take long for social media to fact-check and mock Congresswoman Handjob.
