"We have to shut down the Hollywood elites who are trying to buy my current district," Boebert said on Steve Bannon's "War Room" podcast on Saturday.

Rep. Lauren Boebert is blaming Hollywood for her decision to switch congressional districts.

“We have to shut down the Hollywood elites who are trying to buy my current district,” Boebert told Steve Bannon on his “War Room” podcast on Saturday.

“There has been close to $10 million poured into this district to buy this seat. Colorado’s 3rd District is not for sale,” she continued.

Boebert then named the stars, who she said were backing her rivals.

“When you have Barbra Streisand coming in and donating to the Democrat, when you have Ryan Reynolds coming in and donating to the Democrat, it shows you that Hollywood is trying to buy their way into Congress,” Boebert told Bannon.

    “I will not allow dark money that is directed at destroying me personally to steal this seat,” Boebert said in a Facebook video on Wednesday.

    It’s always the same bullshit. Her opponent got more donations than her and suddenly the seat is being “stolen”. She doesn’t own this seat. She barely held on last election. I hope she tries to move districts and burns out in the primary.
