Congresswoman Lauren Boebert wants to know why everyone on Capitol Hill is so rife and randy.
When asked by a reporter on Thursday what needs to be done to prevent lawmakers from sexually harassing their staff, the 39-year-old grandmother who was once busted for groping a man during a musical, offered some advice.
‘Go to church. Find Jesus,’ she said. ‘Why is everybody so horny here?’
The question came after a pair of resignations roiled the House of Representatives following sexual misconduct allegations against former Congressmen Eric Swalwell and Tony Gonzales.
The two men called it quits this week after mounting pressure and allegations of fornicating with their staffers.
Boebert’s statement about the ‘horny’ lawmakers prompted a flood of hilarious responses pointing to how the Colorado Republican was caught on surveillance footage groping and being groped during a ‘Beetlejuice’ musical in 2023.
That footage shows a man placing his hands on Boebert’s chest, and she reciprocates by placing her own paws on him. She was later kicked out of the Denver theater after being caught vaping during the show.
‘Didn’t you get caught jerking a guy off during the Beetlejuice musical?’ radio host Emma Vigeland reacted to the Republican’s remarks.
‘Why is everybody so horny here?’ Congresswoman Lauren Boebert fumed on Thursday

Boebert and her mystery man quickly made their way through the lobby and out the front doors
‘Handjob Boebert talking about horny?’ another user wrote.
Some pointed out how the 39-year-old fumed over congressional libidos while wearing a form-fitting black dress. She had donned a similar outfit the day before.
‘Rep. Boebert has a point. Take it to the theatre like a civilized person. Perhaps a showing of “Beetlejuice,” returning to Broadway at the National this summer,’ wrote DC-based journalist Jim Lokay.
Townhall editor Matt Vespa piled on: ‘I do find it amusing that the woman kicked out of beetlejuice [because] she was … handsy with her date said this.’
Surveillance footage of the 2023 theater incident shows Boebert, wearing a tight, low-cut gold dress and high heels, making a considerable fuss as she and a hunky mystery man are ordered out.
An incident report noted the two received a warning at intermission about their behavior.
But five minutes into the second act, security officials got another complaint about a person being loud and recording the show.
‘It’s true, I did thoroughly enjoy the amazing Beetlejuice at the Buell Theatre and I plead guilty to laughing and singing too loud!’ she wrote at the time.
‘Everyone should go see it if you get the chance this week and please let me know how it ends!’ Boebert added in her 2023 social-media post.
Boebert told the Daily Mail after the clip went viral: ‘Just giving advice as someone who knows, Jesus saves!’
