Lauren Boebert just called Oliver Stone.....

by the wrong Stone! She thought Oliver Stone was Roger Stone!

Incompetent as usual with her own words!

Yes, it’s easy to confuse people but when you are a setting congresswoman and you don’t have the facts and the proper information? Maybe you shouldn’t be there?

This happened in a hearing about the JFK hearings.

I recorded it, just that part, but I don't have a way to upload it here. Maybe someone will clip it. I watched that hearing, and literally gagged when Nancy Mace lauded all her praise on TSF. Up to that point, that hearing was fairly non-partisan.

I love Jasmine Crockett, but I also feel that it wasn't appropriate during this serious hearing (on government secrecy, specifically about releasing documents on the JFK assassination)

It was an interesting hearing. Oliver Stone had a hearing aid and had trouble hearing the questions. He is not looking so good these days.

BOEBERT: “Wasn’t it Oliver Stone who implicated LBJ in the assassination of JFK?”
MORLEY: “You’re confusing Oliver Stone with Roger Stone.”
BOEBERT: “I may have misinterpreted... I apologize.”

“Is it not true, Mr. Stone, that here in my beloved state of Colorado, you were complicit in the repeated and humiliating attempts at the assassination of Kenny more than 120 times?”

“Um, Ms. Boebert, I think you have my client confused with Matt Stone?”
