At an age when some women are just beginning their adventures as mothers, Colorado Republican Representative Lauren Boebert has revealed she will go on a journey as a grandmother.
The startling revelation was revealed by the outspoken Republican firebrand as she was speaking at the Conservative Political Action Conference Women’s Breakfast in Maryland on Saturday.
Boebert was scheduled to speak at the event, but she was also there to receive the “Mothers Influence Award.” from the conservative charity Moms for America.
Moms for America hailed the congresswoman for her “incredible stance in empowering moms, promoting liberty, and raising patriots” in a Twitter post.

“I’m a mom of four boys,” Boebert said during the event. “And I’ve said many times, [husband] Jayson and I, we are raising our four boys to be men before liberals teach them to be women.”
After receiving acclaim for her transgender joke, she announced her son Tyler’s relationship with his girlfriend.
“I’m going to tell you all, for the first time in a public setting, that not only am I a mom of four boys, but come April, I will be a GiGi to a brand new grandson,” Boebert said. “And Jayson and I are so excited to welcome this new life into our family.”
“Now, any of you who have young children, who are giving life, there are some questions that pop up,” she said. “There’s some fear that arises.”
Moreover, worries around unplanned parenthood play a significant part in the abortion business, which Boebert has fought vehemently since entering the public eye.

“As a mother of four children, I believe that life begins at conception, and I will always defend life. Every human being has inherent value and dignity regardless of their stage of development, ability, age, gender, or race,” the congresswoman’s official website states under her stance on “Pro-Life and Family Values.”
Self-responsibility is another important aspect of conservatism, and she looks to be teaching her young son this lesson in real time, even if he is going to make jokes about it.
“Now my son, when I approached him and told him, ‘Tyler, I’m going to be a 36-year-old grandmother,’ he said, ‘Well, didn’t you make granny a 36-year-old granny?’” Boebert said.
“I said, ‘Yes, I did.’ He said, ‘Well then it’s hereditary.’
“Nice try, buddy.”
