4:34Now PlayingEmbattled Republican lawmaker Lauren Boebert has a message for people who aren't happy with the oppression happening in Florida: Go build your own state. That is the actual message that sent out to people who are worried about the damage that is being done to individual liberties and the rule of law in Florida. And not only is that not possible, but Boebert also doesn't seem to understand what the law says. Farron Cousins explains what's happening.

Lauren Boebert thinks that if you're not happy with the laws of a state or territory here in the United States, then you should just pack up your crap. And I guess, go start your own state. Maybe, maybe go start your own country. I, I don't know exactly how that works, but that is what she said to folks on Twitter who are unhappy with the a so-called don't say gay bill here in the state of Florida. She sent out a message to them that says, if you don't like Florida's laws, protecting kids from doing irreversible damage to their bodies, then build your own Florida.
Okay. All right. Lot, lot to unpack there. Um, this of course, as I said, was taught about Florida's don't say gay legislation that that has no bearing whatsoever on what people can do to their bodies. This is not Lauren. The legislation out of places like Texas that says you cannot give gender affirming care to youth. Even if they want it. Even if the parents are supportive, even if the doctors say they should get it, uh, Texas is the place that banned that Lauren, Texas was, was the correct answer there. The legislation you were referring to actually says, you cannot have discussions about sexual orientation or sexual identity in, uh, younger grades. Which of course, wasn't a thing that was happening. But you know, now we got legislation saying, you can't do it. You, even though you were already not doing it here in the state of Florida. So you got your wires crossed a little bit, uh, you know, to be expected. You're you're not very bright. And then you said that go build your own Florida.
I, I would like for you, uh Bobert to elaborate on that, like how do we do that? Where do do it, right? Um, cuz if you have suggestions, I'm gonna be honest with you. I'm open to it. Cuz I gotta tell you living down here in this like increasingly red state sucks. Like it, it, it sucks really, really bad and I'm about sick and tired of it. So, you know, if you've got options on where we can go build our own Florida, I I'm totally open to suggestions here, but here's the thing we actually do have blue states here in the United States. And what do you Republicans do? You don't tell liberals like, ah, you just stay in your blue state and everything will be cool. No, what you do is you go out there in the media every single day and attack them and you know exactly what I'm talking about.
Y'all have done nothing but crap on the state of California ever since Donald Trump burst onto the national stage. Hell, let's be honest even way before that too. But you talk about how, oh, California's taxing people to death. All the people are leaving. There's a mass Exodus from California. They tell us in conservative media. No there's actually not. That is 100% false. Uh, New York. Nobody wants to live there with those New York liberals. Really it's like one of the number one destinations of everyone on the planet to go to New York city. So you guys do attack when people say, okay, we're gonna have our blue liberal BA gen out here, you attack
It relentlessly and spread lies about how horrible those places are. When in reality, they're doing a hell of a lot better than places like Florida and Texas, right? But you don't care about the truth. Nothing matters to you. You wanna spread your lies. You wanna say you're stupid stuff like Olivia, you don't like Florida. You can pack up and get out. Cool. You're doing nonstop about the United States of America. Now that president Biden is president. So by your own logic, shouldn't you go and build your own Colorado. Maybe write out smack D in the middle of Pacific ocean, right? You and all your conservative friends. You know what? I've got it. I figured it out. I know where all these angry conservatives here are. The United States can go based. Of course I on Lauren Bauer's own logic here. They can build their own Republican land on that great Pacific garbage patch. I can't think of a better place for all the conservatives to go floating around on a pile of garbage. Of course, it'd be hard
