Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) complained that she had been called a "domestic terrorist" by members of her own party.

During an interview on the War Room podcast with Steve Bannon on Saturday, Boebert revealed that there had been some Republican infighting over how to fund the government.

"We were called domestic terrorists by members of our own party," Bobert lamented, "simply by wanting reforms in Congress. No one likes the way Congress operates. And so, my colleagues and I took a stand — around 15 — stand to make fundamental historic changes to the way this place operates."

Boebert did not reveal which members had referred to her as a domestic terrorist.

In 2021, Boebert suggested that Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) could be mistaken for a terrorist.
