Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., lashed out at a Fox News Digital reporter after she began asking about an alleged sexual relationship between her and Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., which was recently proposed by a woman who claims to be Massie’s ex-girlfriend.
“F – – – you, first of all!’ Boebert said this to a Fox News Digital reporter when he revealed the claims from Massie’s alleged ex-girlfriend.
“If you’re going to put me in this, like, the sex stuff is like out of control,” he continued. “So there’s your clickbait you’ve been looking for.”

Boebert then declined to discuss the allegations further.
This discussion took place after Boebert discussed President Donald Trump’s efforts to oust Republicans and Massie’s future in politics.
Former Congressional staffer Cynthia West, who once worked for Rep. Victoria Spartz, R-Ind., accused Massie of bragging to her about the alleged affair with Boebert in the weeks after his wife’s death.
West also accused Massie of offering him $5,000 to drop a wrongful termination lawsuit he is seeking against Spartz, who is a friend of Massie’s. The allegations come one week before Massie loses his House seat in the May 19 Republican primary.
“I don’t want to talk about anybody’s exes and the crazy things they do,” Boebert told reporters.
Before the exchange became contentious, Boebert was responding to questions about whether Trump’s strategy of supporting Republican front-runners is against the GOP agenda.

“I think most of the people who lost their primaries, were pushing back on the GOP agenda – Cassidy, Cornyn,” replied Boebert.
“I mean, obviously Thomas Massie is the only one I’m upset about,” she said.
Boebert was also asked about Massie’s recent announcement that he is seeking re-election in 2028. Many think that Massie may run for president in 2028 as he said he is not sure what position he will run for again.
“I have not made a final decision about what office I will seek, if I run,” he wrote in a post on X announcing his re-election bid to the Federal Election Commission.

Boebert said he was unsure of Massie’s next move, before reprimanding the reporter for turning the conversation to West’s allegations.
“Someone applied,” he said. “He didn’t specify and I don’t know if he’s going to continue with that or not. I don’t know.” “I hope he goes here and makes money,” added Boebert.
