Another one!

Florida GOP Rep. Bill Posey on Friday abruptly announced he will be retiring from Congress at the end of the year.

The 76-year-old was first elected to represent Florida’s 8th Congressional District in 2008.

..... Snip.....

According to Axios, more Republican lawmakers are expected to announce retirements in the next few weeks.

More than 23 House Republicans have announced they will not seek reelection in 2024.

Last month RINO Representative Mike Gallagher (WI) announced he would exit the House in mid-April.

Following the resignation of Mike Gallagher, Kevin McCarthy, Bill Johnson, Ken Buck and the ousting of George Santos, the Republicans are left with a one-seat majority!

You can kiss the Republican majority goodbye. This was an organized plot to sabotage Trump in case he wins.

The Republican party is a train wreck. The deadwood needs to be purged. Use this opportunity to create a MAGA party.

Actually it is a plot to keep the seat from being primaried. Instead, the only person to “step up” is another pol.

This is crony crap at its worst. People in that district should be pissed.

In general, the people leaving the party see a change coming and they don’t want to play. That’s fine. I guess we will see how the “new kids” do in the big pond.

Is the primary still pending? Is there a way to get a good MAGA candidate on the ballot in his place?

Seems like good news at first blush. 78 yrs...probably in an R district.

Out with the old, in with the MAGA

The DNC must be paying these rinos bundles of cash to sell out their party and retire early. Its the only way the Marxist Dems can counter Trump but they are underestimating the dynamic genius of Trump............fools!

I agree. Let the purge begin. Hopefully, we can replace RINO scum with MAGA candidates.

Correctamundo. The Congresscritter didn’t do his announcement until right before the deadline to qualify for the primary election… and late on a Friday at that. Lo and behold the critter’s good buddy already has completed the requirements to be on the primary ballot so will likely run in the primary with minimal or no opposition. Standard CRONY POLITICS!

Another “BREAKING!” story from the Gateway Pundit - something announced yesterday, with his chosen successor already also announcing his run yesterday.

The Gateway Pundit continues to be a completely joke.

Pretty much a repeat of the 2018 midterms shaping up. Should have been an affirmation vote for Trump, then too, but about 40 something gop incumbents sold out and left, taking the incumbents advantage with them, away from the gop caucus, and handing the House to the rats.

“ Bill Posey endorsed Mike Haridopolos to replace his seat.

“For many years, Mike has served as my Congressional Finance Committee Chairman, while I have mentored him to replace me,” Posey said. “Mike was, and remains, my first choice to represent you, me, and our district in Congress.”

Seriously tho … why are so many ‘retiring’?

Yep. The skeletons are rattling their bones in the closets of Republicans.
Tech companies and geo-tracking make it real easy to dig up dirt on dirty politicians.

I think you are right, and then they're informed if the don't take the DNC silver they will get the deep state lead.

You are not allowed to hold office if the deep state does not have dirt on you.
