Move over, Lauren Boebert! Colorado might send another LGBTQ-hating, QAnon nutjob to Congress!
A post shared by Erik Aadland (@aadlandforcolorado)First Lauren Boebert, now this guy?!Meet Erik Aadland. He’s the Republican nominee currently running for U.S.
House to represent Colorado’s 7th Congressional District and he just nabbed two major endorsements… from two of the biggest right-wing extremists in his state.Retired U.S.
Army major general and QAnon conspiracy theorist Paul Vallely and former anti-LGBTQ state congressman Tom Tancredo have both thrown their support behind the 42-year-old father of three.Related: This gay-hating GOP nominee once worked for Rosie O’Donnell and starred in a zombie golden shower filmLast month, The Colorado Times Recorder revealed Aadland’s connection to several far-right and QAnon social media accounts on Parler, so his recent endorsements from these two nutjobs is no surprise and just another reminder of Aadland’s fringe beliefs.On his campaign website, Aadland, who believes the 2020 presidential election was “absolutely rigged” and has likened January 6 insurrectionists to “political prisoners”, claims his time serving in the military taught him the value of diversity, writing:I am blessed to have worked with multicultural teams all over the world in both my military and private sector careers.
That is why I understand the benefit of contributions from people with many different perspectives and backgrounds. I will stand against discrimination of any kind.
