Rep. Lauren Boebert’s son has been charged with child abuse following an incident involving her grandson that she described as a “miscommunication.”

Tyler Boebert, 20, the eldest son of the MAGA congresswoman, was cited for criminal negligence where no death or injury occurred, which is a misdemeanor, for the July 11 incident, according to Windsor Police Department records obtained by Denver Westword.

Authorities have not yet shared details about the incident, which the 38-year-old congresswoman brushed off as “a miscommunication on monitoring my young grandson that recently led to him getting out of the house.”

    Seems to me that Lauren Boebert is no more nor less responsible for her adult son’s behaviour than Joe Biden is for his adult son’s behaviour.

      Family should put pressure on members exhibiting anti-social behavior. The shame is an incentive. But you can only do so much.
