The homepage of TheLaurenBoebert.com, a parody website created by comedian and TV comedy writer Toby Morton, features a photograph of U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert from the Silt Republican’s press kit on her congressional website. Morton said on Monday, May 3, 2021, that Boebert’s office demanded the site be taken down.

The logo of Shooters Grill, a gun-themed restaurant in Rifle owned by U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Silt, and her husband, Jayson. Rural Colorado United, an independent expenditure organization devoted to unseating Boebert, said it acquired the logo after the restaurant let its trademark lapse and is selling it in an online auction.
Representative Lauren Boebert is a lot of things. She’s a mom of four, married to a fella who only exposed himself to minors at a bowling alley that one time. She’s a failed internet model turned small business owner, running a restaurant known more for its defiant political positions and its merch! than its food. She’s also a gun fetishist, a Q-Anon sympathizer, a Trump worshipper and the U.S. House representative from Colorado’s 3rd Congressional District.
What she’s not is a trademark and copyright attorney. Or, apparently, good with things like details and deadlines.
