When upstart conservative candidates hit the scene from the private sector to take on long-time incumbent moderates, the results are usually poor. The power of being a recognized incumbent is often too challenging to overcome as familiarity helps with both fundraising and votes. But Congressman Scott Tipton fell tonight to restaurant owner Lauren Boebert in the GOP primary in Colorado’s 3rd District, demonstrating the recent trend towards more conservative (and in the case of Democrats, more progressive) candidates emerging to take down the old guard.
For complete transparency, NOQ Report endorsed Boebert on May 11.
Congressional candidate Lauren Boebert should inspire all patriotic Americans
With 87% of the vote in, Tipton conceded to Boebert, trailing by nearly 9-points. Tipton won the seat on Capitol Hill during the 2008 election and has never faced a serious primary challenge. But Boebert joins a growing number of conservatives who are not satisfied with moderate Republicans representing their districts in Washington DC. Tipton’s Conservative Review Liberty Score is an “F” at 55%.
Boebert owns Shooters Grill in Rifle, Colorado. It’s often called the “safest eating establishment in America” as many of its staff open-carry pistols in clearly visible holsters at their hips. But it was Boebert’s conversation with former Congressman and presidential candidate Beto O’Rourke that brought her national prominence. At a campaign rally, Boebert told the Democrat, “I am here to say: Hell, no, you’re not,” referring to multiple campaign moments in which O’Rourke declared he was going to confiscate AR-15s and other “assault rifles.”
Listen to our interview with Boebert:
A primary win by an unabashed conservative supporter of President Trump bodes well for patriots looking for stronger leadership in Washington DC. We were proud to endorse her before and we’re on Team Boebert for the general.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
