Boebert uncorks expletive-filled response to Fox News reporter's affair question

Rep. Lauren Boebert had a blunt message for a Fox News Digital reporter who asked her about affair allegations Saturday: "F--- you, first of all."

The Colorado Republican was asked about unverified allegations from Cynthia West, described as the ex-girlfriend of Rep. Thomas Massie, claiming an encounter between Boebert and Massie shortly after his wife's death in 2024. Massie, a Kentucky Republican and frequent Trump critic, lost his primary race last month after Trump backed his opponent.

Boebert didn't stop at the opening expletive. "If you're going to bring me into this, the sexist stuff is out of control," she continued, visibly agitated and gesturing toward the reporter outside what appeared to be a Capitol area building. "So there's your clickbait that you were looking for and I don't want to talk about anybody's exes and their crazy s--- they do."

She then walked away.

The exchange was posted by Fox News itself, which noted the confrontation in a clip running just over 13 seconds. The allegations have not been verified and Boebert did not address their substance, framing the question itself as the problem rather than offering a denial.
