Kinzinger speaks out on leaving Congress, 'cancer' in the Republican Party
ABC News ^ | Oct 31, 2021

Posted on 10/31/2021 4:53:43 PM PDT by where's_the_Outrage?

After announcing on Friday that he would not seek reelection to Congress in 2022, Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill., said Sunday he, Rep. Liz Cheney and "a few others" are the only House Republicans "telling the truth" about the 2020 election and its aftermath.

"You can fight to try to tell the truth, you can fight against the cancer in the Republican Party of lies of conspiracy of dishonesty," Kinzinger told ABC "This Week" anchor George Stephanopoulos exclusively in his first interview since the announcement. "There are about 190 people in the Republican Party that aren't going to say a word, and there's a leader of the Republican caucus that is embracing Donald Trump with all he can."

The Illinois GOP congressman is one of the most prominent critics of former President Donald Trump. He was one of 10 Republicans who voted to impeach Trump following the riot at the Capitol on Jan. 6 -- and he’s one of two serving on the House committee investigating the attack.

Another dopey RINO who believes what he is selling but people in his district and around the country aren’t buying. They live in some bubble where they don’t believe what others are saying outside their echo chamber.

“We have met the cancer, and he is Adam Kinzinger.”

With apologies to Walt Kelly and Pogo.

Sounds like he is excising the cancer himself. A few malignant cells left to go.

Kinzinger and his ilk are the real cancer.

And he’s a tumor we can thankfully flush down the crapper.

He is part of the cancer, but he'll soon be gone, and head off to his new job as a "news analyst" at MSNBC or CNN.

First off, I read this as “Kissinger speaks out as leaving Congress…” and I’m thinking ‘Kissinger? He’s still around? Isn’t he too old?’ Then I think ‘wait, he wasn’t even in Congress’.

Oh brother, I’m all screwed up. Reread headline.

But oh good KINZINGER is leaving Congress.

And Kissinger would probably approve.

ABC “news”?
Bwaahahahahahahahahahah.
Better news from the Babylon Bee.
As for RINOs? Torture, death, and cremation, then launching the ashes into the sun. Die, RINOs, die. Die, die, die.
Rinse, repeat.

What do these people eat or smoke, to think the way they do.

They throw out a few words that are accusatory and yet say nothing that explains their few words.
I want to hear the reasons he calls it cancer to investigate and want the truth.

A dummy can say a phrase like that.. but give me the whys and how he came to say those words..about us. Who he disagrees with.
I doubt he has anything worth hearing.. hes just against a man who succeeded and would rather have the nation as biden is doing.. falling apart and people losing everything..

What a selfish loathsome person he is!!

Rep. Kinzinger became a traitor for thirty pieces of silver, 15 minutes of fame, and a boot to the ass.
Traitors are hated even by those whom they prefer.

And the absolute clue that Both of those people are liars is the fact that ABC wrote an article about them.
