Buck, 54, announced on Facebook in March 2013 that he was battling lymphoma.

Deep State backup plan.

Republicans deliberately throw the congressional races in case DJT succeeds in regaining the Presidency. That way a Democrat majority in the House can resume harassing him with endless charges and investigations.

If the Governor calls the special election in months, this is the district Bobert is running in now. So if she wins, her old Dem district goes D, and we lose another seat.

He leaves the day the GOP Jan 6 report exposes the lies told to weaponize it. Any connection?

Ken Buck is clearly compromised, and a RINO anti-MAGA Republican, so GOOD RIDDANCE.

Has there been any down ballot polling on Democrat races? State level?

Remember the bust of the “high class” prostitution ring in DC? The brothel catered to politicians and military top brass. Might there be a connection?

The commies are probably paying him to leave early.

Now the Republicans control the House by one seat.

Pick off a few more, and Jeffries controls the House.

Only the Stupid Party could manage to turn an electoral victory into minority status on the eve of a POTUS election.

1) He has lymphoma.

2) Lauren Boebert has announced to run in the primary for this district, which is safe GOP.

3) A special election can be held, but the primary for that seat is in June.

4) This will likely result in a move towards MAGA for this seat — even with some redistricting.

You’re correct someone has the goods on him.

But it’s not the left.

Oh great, will the GOP still have a majority?

So, does this leave Republicans without the majority? Because that is likely Bucks goal. What a pig.

I expect this to happen. All by design.

Is Buck doing this to influence the November election for his seat?

Whoever is named as the replacement would end up as the favorite. But if Lauren Boebert is a skilled politican, she can use this event and work it so she'll gain advantage from it. It's easy to point out the corruption in D.C. So that's the angle I would use.

Otherwise, people are tired of Boebert because her personal life is messy. But I don't care. She's solid and in the Freedom Caucus.
