Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

MODERATORS
I would suggest re-reading the article instead of taking cherry-picked sentences out of context.
The source of this information has already admitted that his own source made multiple errors, including incorrectly identifying a picture of another woman as being that of Boebert, and that they've "seen" the rest of the evidence but just can't provide it, putting it right in the category of "Really, I have a girlfriend. You just don't know her. She goes to another school. In Canada."
She does not, to my knowledge, have a criminal record with arrests for prostitution. Sources that have come forward with those allegations have been repeatedly debunked, and absolutely nobody has come forward with actual, credible evidence. So, no, I do not believe she was ever a prostitute or actually engaged in the sex work industry, nor is there any evidence to the contrary.
Just because I don't like somebody doesn't mean it's OK to fling false accusations about them. She's been a public figure and a prominent member of the Republican house for over 3 years now. And let's be realistic. Boebert is an incredibly attractive woman with huge boobs. If there were any credible evidence of her working on that site or any other, don't you think someone would have found it by now and spread pictures of her naked everywhere? Don't you think at least one of her customers would have come forward by now to share their story?
I'm not asking you demonstrate or provide evidence one way or the other. I am asking if you believe she was never a prostitute.
I just demonstrated how your source was pretty flawed and exists in that grey area where we can't say for sure she was and need to give her the benefit of the doubt that she claims she wasn't.
Don't worry though, your inability to answer a simple question actually answered it for me.
