Freshman Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) responded to criticism of her gun storage in her Zoom background during a House Natural Resources Committee meeting.
During the committee’s organizing meeting held over Zoom, the Republican appeared to have several guns including rifles and a handgun propped up behind her on a bookshelf.
Her background was immediately spotted with journalists, lawmakers and Twitter users pointing it out on the platform.
“I always thought my dirty dishes piled up and accumulating bacteria were the most dangerous thing in a Zoom background…#SafeStorage,” Rep. Katie Porter (D-Calif.) said in response to Boebert’s background.
