Lauren “36-Year-Old Grandma” Boebert giving a handjob in a theater isn’t the only sign that Republicans are lying about their belief in so-called family values.

One-eyed jitbag Ken Paxton, who set a new low for behavior by a Texas attorney general – not an easy feat – was acquitted in his impeachment trial by the Texas state senate.
