We have an exclusive um that you are going to you're not gonna believe some of the things, all right? Some of the allegations. And it just sort of reminded me, like and thumbs up, by the way. Please like and thumbs up, first order of business, uh, because it does affect the algorithm. More people become aware of our conversation and our channel, and that's very, very important to us. Um, and tell us where you're streaming from. So what I want is it reminded me, my like my grandmother and my mom used to say, you know. Um

Don Lemon 1:37

Sometimes I I don't like going to church. I like the go I like going and I like praising the Lord and I like all that stuff. But sometimes I don't like going because the churchy people are the people who are can be the least Godlike. That's what my mom used to say. 'Cause they're all gossiping, they're all talking about people and they're all doing things behind Closed doors. Sometimes not so close, but anyway. So and then my grandmother would say, Don't let that Sunday hat fool you. Some folks are gonna shout amen in church and they're gonna raise hell before they even reach the parking lot. And that brings me to one. Republican Congresswoman Lauren Bobert. Allegations here pending. Because Washington has produced another morality story involving a politician who has made religion and conservative family values a major part of her public identity, although

Don Lemon 2:30

Sometimes things that happen in a theater when they're going to see Betelgeuse and all kinds of other things makes you question all of that. Lauren Boebert is loud, she's combatative, she rarely will sh she's rarely shy about judging the conduct of other people in Congress, especially Democrats, right? Rarely. Back in April she stood outside the Capitol and asked this question. Here it is, roll it.

Lauren Boebert 3:00

Yeah, go to church. Find Jesus. Like I mean, why is everybody so horny here?

Don Lemon 3:08

Hi, Joanna. Why is everybody so horny here? I don't think she was talking about Joanna. But I'm not even gonna ask that question. So look, she she said, go to church, find Jesus. Why is everybody so Really, Lauren. Now you should have known when she said something like that, that something was up. And now that same congresswoman who asked why everybody is so horny is facing some serious allegations involving members of her own staff. And I have to be really precise here. These are allegations contained in an ethics complaint. Boebert denies them. The people identified in the complaint have also disputed the claims, and the House Ethics Committee has not announced any findings that misconduct occurred. Those are all important things.

Don Lemon 3:58

That we are saying here, that we are putting out here, because that's an important part of the story. Okay. Coming up we have an exclusive we have exclusive details about additional allegations that David Wheeler says that he expects to include in an amended complaint. We have reviewed the proposed claims, but they have not been established as fact. Again, these are allegations and they're presented to the ethics committee. We're gonna take we're gonna take you through exactly what is being alleged here, what is being denied, and what evidence Wheeler says that he has. But first, The original complaint identifies three current or former staff members, okay? And this is these are photos here. They are Clarice Navarro Ratzlaugh.

Don Lemon 4:45
