      Weren’t she and like ten other top, younger GOP candidates and influencers formerly models with no interest in politics until someone apparently started paying them to share extreme rhetoric instead of whatever the fuck they used to get up to?

      Very, very weird.

        Crazy story about how boebert, candace owens, tomi lahren and more of that type of vapid, gop agent of chaos - all started on a sketchy “modeling agency” website (which seems like it’s also used as an escort service potentially) called “explore talent”?

        It shows some of these “political pundits” in revealing, suggestive poses and is run by an Israeli pornographer with ties to organized crime (Name is Ami Shafrir and he is suspected/accused of some other pretty serious stuff).

        Here are some of the photos that were captured (with watermark):

        Here’s boebert (this photo really shows you her roots as the illegitimate daughter of a deadbeat amateur wrestler from Florida).

        And I guess, until recently at least, candice owens’ whole profile was still up.

        There’s always another layer to these cartoon villains and their evil, desperation and ignorance.

        And here’s a Twitter thread that broke it open and continues to track as new members of things like the Jan 6 insurrection are found to mysteriously also be in the explore talent family

        Recent screen grab of that thread

          Read through the whole thing. Holy shite.

          Sounds like the website is more of an aggregator and not really like these people were affiliated with it. And I guess it would make sense that amongst so many good looking people (them tramp stamps though), they’d have profiles pop up on that sort of aggregator.

          Like I have websites that track my name and basic professional details and I have no affiliation with the sites. They scraped my data and while they pose as a “directory” it’s really an ad.

            Sorry, not sure what you’re referencing with mention of an aggregator? Can you source what you’re claiming?

              Aggregators crawl the web to find similar interests and lump em together, for ease and also to generat3 revenue. Personally I see them mostly in stuff like manga sites and lookup sites.

              What this may mean for the poster is not that he’s disagreeing with the actors statement, but more that they probably all aren’t directly affiliated with the one site. They may have had profiles up with different sites and agencies and this one site has crawled and pulled their info into a more easily searchable database. That in turn would make this a bit less collaborative, and perhaps more emblematic of a common trait than a specific strategy.

              It just seems to me how like LinkedIn has pages for people even though the people aren’t members, they create the pages just on information they’ve scraped from the web to make it look like the person has an account on that site.

              I don’t know if that’s the case with how that website works, but the description of it made it sound like that’s exactly what it does.

                My impression was the opposite. These were profiles deliberately setup, by people like boebert, for this “talent agency” to gain work. And the guy that runs it all had known connections to the right wing network and is essentially an Israeli mobster IIRC facilitating connections with conservative politicians and “news” networks.

    Most people will lose a battle of wits with Petey B. He’s friggin’ quick and incredibly intelligent.

    Boebert would lose a battle of wits with a rock though.

    She’d lose battle of wits against a stuffed iguana. She’s essentially unarmed

      (Image: Lauren Boebert’s face from post thumbnail-- ¾ angle. She has a very forced, mostly terrifying smile. The image is edited with a crudely drawn witch hat and text reads, “I’ll grope you my pretty, and your little dog too”.)

      Nah. Trust she’s an expert at it, as good as one could be.

      How many kids does she have? I guess we won’t know how many abortions and day-after pills she’s had so maybe you’re right. All I’m saying is, it’s got to be relative. We saw Boebert just in a theater full of families. God damn, some of the shit she’s got up to probably at house parties and bonfire parties and what not. And like, obviously she had a kid very young, right, and then several others I think? So she’s obviously not used much in the way of contraception, which means she’s only doing pull out, and as many kids as she has, she doesn’t have an absurd amount, like she doesn’t have twenty or thirty of them. That’s pretty good, relatively.

      Why was she never charged with indecency? Weren’t there kids around? Caught on camera, in a public space.

      And, can IQ scores run in the negative?

        Because as a congresswoman she fucks Americans in public all day. I’m sure people were just glad someone enjoyed it this time

    Weird. She doesn’t do so good with a male she can’t give a handjob to in a public theater with children there. Oh well…
