Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., scolded a reporter from Fox News Digital after he started asking her about allegations of a sexual relationship between her and Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., that were recently raised by a woman identifying herself as Massie’s ex-girlfriend.
‘F—you, first of all!’ Boebert told a Fox News Digital reporter, bringing up the claims from Macy’s alleged ex-girlfriend.
“If you’re going to include me in this, well, sexist things are going to get out of control,” she continued. “So this is the clickbait you were looking for.”

Boebert subsequently declined to discuss the allegations further.
The exchange occurred as Boebert was discussing President Donald Trump’s efforts to unseat Republican incumbents and Massie’s political future.
Former congressional staffer Cynthia West, who previously worked for Rep. Victoria Spartz, R-Ind. Macy, who worked for Boebert, accused Macy of bragging about an alleged sexual encounter with Boebert within weeks of his wife’s death.
West also accused Macy’s of offering him $5,000 to drop his wrongful termination suit against Macy’s associate Spartz. The allegations surfaced just a week before Massey lost his House seat in the May 19 Republican primary.
Boebert told the reporter, “I don’t want to talk about anybody’s ex-girlfriends and all the crazy things they do.”
Before the conversation turned contentious, Boebert was responding to a question about whether Trump’s strategy of supporting primary challengers against Republican incumbents was backfiring on the GOP agenda.

“I think most of the people who lost their primaries were counterproductive to the GOP agenda. – Cassidy, Cornyn,” Boebert replied.
“I mean, obviously Thomas Massey is the only one I’m a little sad about,” she said.
Boebert was also asked about Massie’s recent announcement that he is seeking re-election in 2028. Many are speculating that Messi may run for president in 2028 as he said he is unsure 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 Twitter announcing his re-election filing with the Federal Election Commission.

Boebert shared that she was unsure of Macy’s next move, before chiding the reporter for shifting the conversation to the allegations made by West.
“He applied for a few,” she said. “He didn’t say what and I don’t know if he would move forward with it. I don’t know.” “Hopefully he goes out here and makes some money,” Boebert said.
