Head-spinner

Colorado Springs voters have elected Yemi Mobolade, a 44-year-old Nigerian immigrant who moved to the city in 2010 and emerged as a business and church leader, to serve as the city’s 42nd mayor by a 57% to 43% margin in a runoff election. Mobolade is the first Black person to be elected mayor.

The first black and they went for the Nigerian immigrant. Knock me over with a feather. Please, no Nigerian prince jokes.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.

UPDATE :


Lauren Boebert must be shitting herself.  

Oh, my.... 

Boebert’s statement on the matter offers little insight into why the couple is splitting, beyond alluding to “irreconcilable differences” and denying infidelity on her part. But The Colorado Sun reports that when Jayson was served divorce papers on April 25, he “was extremely angry,” according to court documents obtained by the newspaper. “I tried to hand him the documents but [he] did not take them. He started yelling and using profanities, and told me that I was trespassing, and that he was calling the Sheriff’s Office,” the process server who served Jayson said. [...] “I told him I was leaving the documents on the chair outside of the door, he closed the door then let the dogs out.” The process server claimed Jayson was drinking beer and cleaning his gun when being served.

[...]

Jayson denied threatening the process server and said he “did not know what I was being served for or if it was some crazy left wing person coming to my house again.” He also denied the process server’s claims that he was drinking while cleaning his gun.

“The divorce is sad, I did not expect this, I love her with every bit of my heart, she has been my soul mate and she is the mother of my Children,” Jayson said. “We have been through a lot together and I just want her to be happy.” He concluded: “So it’s what ever she wants.”

Obviously she wants to leave your ass behind.
Boebert filed for divorce in county court on April 25 and requested parental support and decision-making power over her and Jayson’s four sons. She’s discussed her marriage at length in her memoir published last year, including addressing the incident in 2004 when Jayson was arrested for and pleaded guilty to public indecency and lewd exposure after allegedly exposing himself to two girls at a bowling alley. Boebert expressed that she was proud of Jayson, because he “needed the alcohol and anger management classes that came with the plea deal.”

[...]

The same year as the bowling alley incident which had prompted Boebert to suggest in her memoir that Jayson needed the “anger management classes,” she and Jayson were arrested for separate incidents of alleged abuse toward each other. Jayson was arrested for a domestic violence charge a month after the bowling alley incident, and Boebert faced third-degree assault, criminal mischief, and underage drinking charges a few months later.More recently, last summer, Jayson had the cops called on him by the couple’s neighbors, who accused him of threatening them and running over their mailbox while drunk.
They were just a wild couple, weren't they? These are the kind of people who really shouldn't have guns. Her antics in Congress seem to indicate she hasn't changed a whole lot.
The eldest of their four sons, 18, is expecting a child with his girlfriend, Boebert announced in March.
Kind of a Sarah Palin redux story.
Boebert, mind you, is a Bible-thumping Congresswoman who insists that everyone who can’t live up to the right-wing family values that she can’t seem to uphold, herself, should be punished.
Not surprising or unique though, is it?
