Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) posted a photo with her and her children holding guns in front of a Christmas tree.
“The Boeberts have your six, ! (No spare ammo for you, though),” Boebert tweeted.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) mocked Boebert for the post.
“Tell me again where Christ said ‘use the commemoration of my birth to flex violent weapons for personal political gain’? lol @ all the years Republicans spent on cultural hysteria of society ‘erasing Christmas and it’s meaning’ when they’re doing that fine all on their own,” Ocasio-Cortez tweeted.
She added, “When you pose in front of a Christmas Tree and can name all those guns but can’t name the gifts of the Wise Men.”
Boebert’s tweet comes just days after Rep. Thomas Massie tweeted a similar photo, saying, “Merry Christmas! ps. Santa, please bring ammo.”
Several took to the social media platform to blast Massie for the photo.

Earlier this month, a 15-year-old boy was charged after shooting and killing four students and injuring others at a high school in Michigan.
Charges against Ethan Crumbley include murder, attempted murder, and terrorism causing death.
During a press conference Friday, Oakland County Prosecuting Attorney Karen McDonald announced charges against Ethan Crumbly’s parents, Jennifer Crumbley and James Crumbley, as IJR reported.
They were both charged with four counts of involuntary manslaughter.
“Both James and Jennifer Crumbley failed to ask their son if he had his gun with him or where his gun was located and failed to inspect his backpack for the presence of the gun which he had with him,” McDonald said.
