Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) knows controversy and embraces it. She couldn’t care less what the media thinks of her. That’s her greatest strength, to be honest, though there’s been plenty of palace intrigue with her. She and Marjorie Taylor Greene had an epic rivalry that spilled onto the House floor. There was also that 2023 incident where the congresswoman got handsy with a date, which led to her being kicked out of a local rendition of Beetlejuice at the Buell Theatre in Denver. But this latest allegation is spicier, and it’ll surely get media attention.
She allegedly had threesomes and engaged in two lesbian affairs and another one with a male staffer. But the details here are very murky, with one of the reported victims denying the story. Also, the person lobbing these bombshell allegations is a person with an apparent vendetta against Boebert, even trying to rope her into an escort scandal, but the photograph was of another woman, according to Juliegrace Brufke. Also, the threesome allegation, where Matt Gaetz purportedly participated, has zero corroborating evidence (via SourcesSayNews):
Hot take: Fabricating a sex scandal about someone is extensively fucked up and can have real impacts on people's lives. It’s important to get facts before jumping to conclusions. https://t.co/i4kxyFQfSw

Every congresswoman is bi. You just have to figure out if it’s partisan or sexual. https://t.co/GnCetM9m16

🚨#BREAKING: Rep. Lauren Boebert is accused in a sworn House ethics complaint of having lesbian affairs with 2 female staffers under her supervision.
— R A W S A L E R T S (@rawsalerts) September 19, 2026
Rep. Lauren Boebert denied allegations leveled by American Muckrakers that she had sexual relationships with staff members.
“Well, I’m not a lesbian or bisexual, and I have never, ever been in any inappropriate relationship, nor have I ever been sexually involved with any staff,” Boebert told Sources Say News. Addressing the extra claims attached to the story alleging a relationship with former Rep. Matt Gaetz and his wife, Ginger, she added, “Creative, I’ll give him that!”
[…]
The allegations were brought by David B. Wheeler of American Muckrakers in a Sept. 17 filing with the House Committee on Ethics, signed under penalty of perjury. The document is an unsworn declaration, which federal law treats as equivalent to a sworn affidavit. However, it is not an official committee finding, and the Ethics Committee has not stated whether a review has started.
Wheeler claims Boebert had sexual relationships with three aides who worked under her: former district director Clarice Navarro Ratzlaff, current district chief of staff Raven Finegan and former chief of staff Jeffrey Small. House rules adopted in 2018 bar members from engaging in sexual relationships with employees they supervise, and consent is not a valid defense.
Navarro ran Boebert’s district office from 2021 into early 2025, after serving in the Colorado legislature and at the USDA under the Trump administration.
Wheeler alleges that the relationship lasted for years, with encounters occurring in the office, in a reimbursed vehicle, and in campaign-paid hotel rooms.
He also claims that about $200,000 changed hands in March 2025 after Navarro left and threatened her own ethics complaint, though he does not claim to know the source of the money. Navarro told the Colorado Times Recorder that the claims regarding her are “entirely false, defamatory, and beyond ridiculous.”
Yeah, this sounds like another failed hit job, though the social media reactions have been a little funny.
