PAC Claims Lauren Boebert Purportedly Met Ted Cruz While Working As An Escort And He Encouraged Her To Go Into Politics

Claims by the American Muckrackers PAC about the past of Congresswoman Lauren Boebert (R-CO), including allegations of financial fraud, abortions and sex work, have caused a stir online today.

American Muckrakers, which also spearheaded the campaign of leaks against Congressman Madison Cawthorn (R-NC) earlier this year, laid out a story about how Boebert purportedly got into politics that credits Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) and an unnamed Koch family member whom she supposedly met through SugarDaddyMeet.com.

Today I learned that Lauren Boebert was supposedly an escort and Ted Cruz is the one that pushed her to run for Congress, and I’m not even a little bit surprised.

Allegedly, Boebert worked as an unlicensed paid escort because she was bankrupt and was hired by a wealthy client living in Aspen, Colorado. This client then introduced her to Senator Cruz, who purportedly “encouraged” her to run for office. Public filings show that Cruz donated over $200,000 to Boebert’s 2020 race, and American Muckrakers alleges that he also provided advice and assistance in raising money from others.

Lauren Boebert was an unlicensed escort in 2019 with 4 previous arrests, no college degree, 2 previous abortions, and no political experience whatsoever. Why did Ted Cruz donate $125,000 to Lauren Boebert after they met in Aspen -- and encourage her to run for Congress?

In the same press release, American Muckrakers also alleges that Boebert, who has strongly supported limiting abortion rights, has had two abortions, including one at Planned Parenthood. These claims, however, remain unsubstantiated at this time.

In addition to the more salacious accusations of sex work, American Muckrackers states that Boebert was allegedly involved in a drunk-driving ATV accident two weeks before the election in 2020 and sought to cover it up, uses political donations for personal expenses and may be under investigation for tax fraud by the state of Colorado’s Department of Revenue.

Boebert is a highly controversial far-right Congresswoman who has pushed conspiracy theories about vaccines and faced calls for censure because of comments she made about Congresswoman Ilhan Omar (D-MN).

The group seeking to unseat her, American Muckrakers, also sought to unseat Cawthorn last year, a similarly contentious and conspiracy-adjacent first-term Republican Congressperson. Last spring, American Muckrakers posted a series of videos and photos of Cawthorn engaging in bizarre and unseemly behavior, contributing to his loss in May 17th’s primary. Boebert’s primary is coming up on June 28th.

Sex work is legitimate work & I support sex workers, but hypocrisy is never tolerated.

I suspect the Lauren Boebert story is true (like the dirt on Cawthorn) & I’d like to know how Ted Cruz helped Squeaky get elected with her rap sheet/no HS diploma @laurenboebert pic.twitter.com/9wFwutEzP6

American Muckrakers has cited two anonymous sources for its claims about the alleged abortions and escort work Boebert took part in and included screenshots of text conversations with one of the sources in its press release about the claims.

That didn’t stop users on Twitter from speculating about Boebert, however. Some suggested that she secured the support of Cruz through blackmail following an affair.

​​

Lauren Boebert is the type of person to go to Texas, seduce Ted Cruz then blackmail him into continual support and financial donations.

Paging Heidi Cruz.

So what if Lauren Boebert had two abortions, was a paid unlicensed escort, and disfigured her sister-in-law by driving drunk into a rock wall, that's her business. It's the image of her banging Ted Cruz that makes me want to shoot fentanyl into my eyeballs pic.twitter.com/B4jLtOEQjY

A number of left-wing posters strode a line between accepting Boebert’s alleged sex work and abortions while condemning her hypocrisy in opposing sex workers and supporting the overturning of Roe v. Wade while in office.

It's not so much that Lauren Boebert was a paid prostitute, it's that she wants to outlaw abortions after having them. pic.twitter.com/wiS6gBINfq

Some online also criticized the PAC for its muck-slinging.

The following three things can simultaneously be true:
Madison Cawthorn is a terrible person who shouldn't be near the levers of power;
Lauren Boebert is a terrible person who shouldn't be near the levers of power; and
The American Muckrakers PAC is run by terrible people.

Others, including famous fake-news memer @JUNIPER, joked about the credulity of people wanting to believe the Boebert story.

lauren boebert has eaten children and performs demonic rituals in her basement unto the god zamorphious that will bring the end of the world. RT IF YOU THINK THAT SOUNDS TRUE

do not make me defend Lauren Boebert you goddamn heathens

Posters also pointed to other past controversies involving Boebert and her family, including a lewd exposure conviction that Boebert’s husband faced in 2004 for an incident where she was present.

I don’t care what kind of rumors y’all spread about Lauren Boebert.

In my heart, she’ll ALWAYS be the high school dropout, multiple arrestee who married the guy who pulled his dick out at the state fair.
