Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) was caught in a viral moment on Thursday after lecturing her fellow lawmakers following sexual misconduct allegations against two members of Congress.

“Go to church. Find Jesus. Why is everyone so horny around here?” Boebert told reporters on Capitol Hill in the wake of allegations against Reps. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) and Tony Gonzales (R-Texas), who resigned from Congress this week.

Critics on social media were quick to bring up Boebert’s own scandal from 2023, where she was escorted out of a production of the “Beetlejuice” musical in Denver for causing a “disturbance.” Footage later circulated online that appeared to show the congresswoman and her date groping each other.

Boebert later apologized for the incident, in a statement to 9News Denver, saying she was “truly sorry for the unwanted attention my Sunday evening in Denver has brought to the community.”

“While none of my actions or words as a private citizen that night were intended to be malicious or meant to cause harm, the reality is they did and I regret that,” she wrote in a statement at the time.

But her latest comments reminded online critics of the incident.
