Not a single Republican in Congress voted for the COVID relief and stimulus bill that garnered majority support by the American people, including Republicans. They are similarly rejecting Biden&#8217;s infrastructure and jobs bill that has equal support across the political spectrum.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, Republican backbenchers are throwing whatever mud they find handy at the wall and hoping something sticks. So far, they have come up empty, unless you count the humiliation they&#8217;ve accumulated. Take, for instance, Colorado QAnon congresswoman Lauren Boebert (please). On Sunday she tweeted this&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Imagine owning a business where the employees come in one day and destroy everything you&#39;ve worked so hard to achieve.<\/p>\n<p>That&#39;s the Biden Administration.<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Lauren Boebert (@laurenboebert) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/laurenboebert\/status\/1386374446999560196?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 25, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, we don&#8217;t have to imagine that. Biden has come into office and set a course toward undoing much of the damage that Trump and his thug brigades worked so hard to achieve. Biden told voters he would do just that during his campaign, and he&#8217;s keeping his promise. What Boebert doesn&#8217;t get is that this is not some new staff at a business coming in and changing everything. It is a new administration in the White House that the American people put there to do precisely what they&#8217;re doing.<\/p>\n<p>However, that isn&#8217;t the only thing that Boebert is too ignorant to comprehend. Later the same day she tweeted this&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">After the past year of lockdowns, small business closures and job losses the LAST thing Biden and company should be doing is increasing taxes.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, we should have a tax holiday for some relief after this past year of COVID!<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Lauren Boebert (@laurenboebert) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/laurenboebert\/status\/1386384829579661317?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 25, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Boebert thinks that America&#8217;s millionaires and billionaires deserve a tax holiday? Never mind that they already <em>&#8220;profited handsomely&#8221;<\/em> during the pandemic. As <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.usatoday.com\/story\/money\/2020\/12\/01\/american-billionaires-that-got-richer-during-covid\/43205617\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">reported by USA Today<\/a><\/strong>, while <em>&#8220;The COVID-19 pandemic has triggered an economic crisis of a magnitude not seen since the Great Depression [and] more than half a year later, more than 11 million Americans remain unemployed [&#8230;] America\u2019s 614 billionaires grew their net worth by a collective $931 billion.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>So naturally Republicans like Boebert want to throw more money at their wealthy benefactors. Biden, on the other hand, is focused on rest of the population that has just received another stimulus check that every Republican voted against. And Biden thinks that it&#8217;s time for the rich to pay their fair share, so he&#8217;s proposing increases on taxes, but only for those earning more than $400,000.<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s more, Boebert&#8217;s disingenuous sympathy for the small business that were locked down, and the job losses she mentioned, doesn&#8217;t acknowledge that all of that economic pain was exacerbated by Trump and her party&#8217;s negligent and incompetent mishandling of the pandemic. After that, it&#8217;s rather callous of her to use the suffering of the American people as a cudgel against Biden who is actually doing something to help them.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, Boebert also posted a hysterical complaint regarding Biden&#8217;s attention to the climate crisis. She tweeted&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Joe Biden\u2019s climate plan includes cutting 90% of red meat from our diets by 2030.
