Congresswoman Lauren Boebert appears to have continued promoting her belief in the conspiracy theory that the United States government faked the Apollo moon landings 60 years ago. Yesterday, she reposted a comment from her House colleague, U.S. Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN), which questioned a celebration of the Artemis moon mission written by NFL quarterback Josh Dobbs, who graduated from the University of Tennessee with an aerospace engineering degree and who has since worked at NASA as part of the NFL Players Association Externship program.

Several hours after his post, Burchett posted multiple replies, including to Dobbs, stating that his comment was sarcasm intended as an April Fool’s joke. That said, Burchett has for years claimed the U.S. government has covered up contact with aliens, and yesterday also did a Newsmax interview in which he says that he’s been briefed on alien encounters and that “this country would’ve come unglued, I think, if they would’ve heard all that I’d heard.”

This isn’t the first time Boebert has publicly raised doubts about the moon landings. Last summer, during a live television interview with The Blaze’s Alex Stein, the congresswoman questioned whether humans have ventured further than the earth’s magenetosphere, specifically the Van Allen radiation belt. She also noted that she hoped to get a classified briefing on whether the moon landings really occurred.

Back in 2024, during a House Oversight committee hearing called “Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP): Exposing the Truth,” Boebert listed several conspiracies she purports to believe: ““I speak my mind often so why not just keep going with it,” she said. “[I] may as well just go all out and say it: the Earth is flat, birds are government drones, we’ve never set foot on the moon, and Joe Biden received 81 million votes in the 2020 election. Let’s just see how many lists we could get on here today.” In that same hearing she also raised the possibility of alien-human hybrid and UFOs’ use of undersea bases.

Boebert did not respond to the Colorado Times Recorder’s inquiry as to whether her re-post was also an April Fool’s joke, or whether she indeed believes that humans have never set foot on the moon. This article will be updated with any response received.
