Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., received her first Republican nomination after running for office in Colorado’s 4th Congressional District on Tuesday evening, preparing to run for a fourth term.
Despite significant clashes with House GOP leadership and President Donald Trump, Boebert emerged from his primary unscathed, separating himself from three other Republicans who voted with Democrats to advance the Epstein Files Transparency Act.
If he is re-elected in the Nov. 3 general election, he will be the only remaining congressman among GOP rebels Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky.; Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga.; and Rep. Nancy Mace, RS.C.
Greene, who had been an outspoken supporter of the president, resigned earlier this year when the two fell out over foreign aid, government transparency and federal spending.

Although currently in office, Massie lost a primary bid to a Trump-backed challenger earlier this year.
And Mace, who ran for governor in the Palmetto State, narrowly missed out on the GOP nomination after Trump refused to endorse him.
Despite outlasting his GOP colleagues, Boebert has not completely escaped Trump’s wrath. The president noted that Boebert had switched districts to run for a much safer seat and appeared ready to test the waters on him.

“Is anyone interested in running against the weak-minded Lauren Boebert in Colorado’s fourth congressional district?” Trump said in a post on Truth Social in May.
“You remember that Lauren moved to a district where it was clear she couldn’t win her first congressional district. Boebert is campaigning for the worst ‘Republican’ congressman in our country’s history, Thomas Massie. Although I long ago endorsed Boebert, if the right person comes along, it would be my honor to withdraw that endorsement and endorse a good and worthy alternative.”
Boebert announced his decision to switch districts in December 2023, before he voted on the Epstein Files.
Despite his disagreements with the White House, Boebert said he remains a friend of Trump.

“Below is my friend Thomas Massie,” Boebert said in a post on X, posting a photo of Massie alongside Trump.
“He loves America and is fighting to save it. And below is my friend and President Donald Trump. He put his life on the line to save this great country. I support both of these men. I have worked with both of them to preserve freedom and liberty. And if that makes you angry, bless your heart,” Boebert wrote.
