Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., clinched her Republican primary after running unopposed to represent Colorado’s 4th Congressional District on Tuesday evening, setting herself up to pursue a fourth term.
Despite notable clashes with House GOP leadership and President Donald Trump, Boebert emerged from her primary largely unscathed, separating herself from the three other Republicans who voted with Democrats to advance the Epstein Files Transparency Act.
If reelected in the state’s Nov. 3 general election, she will be the only one remaining next Congress among fellow GOP rebels Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky.; Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga.; and Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C.
Greene, a once-outspoken backer of the president, resigned her seat at the beginning of the year when the two split on foreign aid, government transparency and federal spending.

Although he’s presently still in office, Massie lost a primary bid to a Trump-backed challenger earlier this year.
And Mace, who ran for governor in the Palmetto State, fell woefully short of capturing the GOP nomination after Trump declined to endorse her.
Despite outlasting her fellow GOP colleagues, Boebert hasn’t fully escaped Trump’s wrath. The president noted that Boebert had changed districts to run for a considerably safer seat and appeared ready to test the waters against her.
TRUMP THREATENS TO PULL BOEBERT ENDORSEMENT, CALLS CONGRESSWOMAN ‘WEAK MINDED’ OVER MASSIE SUPPORT

“Is anyone interested in running against weak-minded Lauren Boebert in Colorado’s fourth congressional district?” Trump said in a post to Truth Social in May.
“You remember Lauren moved to the district when it became obvious that she couldn’t win in her original congressional district. Boebert is campaigning for the worst ‘Republican’ congressman in the history of our country, Thomas Massie. Even though I long ago endorsed Boebert, if the right person came along, it would be my honor to withdraw that endorsement and endorse a good and proper alternative.”
Boebert announced her decision to switch districts in December 2023, before her vote on the Epstein Files.
Despite her disagreements with the White House, Boebert has said she remains an ally to Trump.

“Below is my friend Thomas Massie,” Boebert said in a post to X, posting a picture of Massie alongside Trump.
“He loves America and is fighting to save it. Also below is my friend and President Donald Trump. He’s put his life on the line to save this great country. I support both of these men. I’ve worked with both to preserve freedom and liberty. And if that makes you angry, bless your heart,” Boebert wrote.
