Theres been rumors of 30-40 of these douches retiring/resigning in the month of January, so maybe this is just a continuation of the draining of the swamp. Memo to Trump...term limits rock!!!
Every time we get a spate of politicians not seeking re-election, I always wonder if they see an “inevitable” the near future and don’t want to be in office when it happens.
I think that Obama and Hillary did some really awful, really criminal things in Libya.
They played some of the Republicans.
I think the Republicans are getting out of the way so theres no,
Well, the Republicans should be in trouble, too!
When it hits the fan.
Royce had a 96% conservative rating by acu. That doesn’t tell us everything but it tells us a lot.
Where is that list of members of Congress involved in settlements? The count was 260, wasn't it? And what about others that used office funds, maybe even campaign funds to make settlements? Will that ever see sunshine?
how is Rep Royce a ‘douche’?
Lots of rats bailing out.
I am not familiar with Rep. Royce but have seen his name in the news on occasion. Unfortunately, nothing in CA politics interests me any more.
There’s always a turnaround, but what is the average, and why are we only reading about Republican’s retiring, or quitting when certainly there are as have always been Democrats retiring, or quitting as well?
IF we are to keep this union intact, and functional under the guidance of the laws created by the founders the Democrats cannot win back the leadership of this nation. It is the job of the Republican party amongst other things to ensure no Democrat rule over this nation ever again. Their interests are not American. Their interests are Democrat Party, their power, their rule.
I would like an election.
Hold the nuts.
Soon there will be no Rep Congressmen from CA. Demography is destiny.
It would be interesting to see a list of possible liberal pickups in the House plus those the GOP thinks it might gain. One seat in NH is always a possible GOP gain for instance.
How the hell does one “weaponize information” in the Information Age?
That’s a bizarre characterization, and one I hop is not the mind-set of our “rulers”.
Alas, I’m convinced that it is.
Some information is so dangerous, so volatile, that it’s mere exposure to “the masses” is a WMD.
“Unfortunately, nothing in CA politics interests me any more.”
Well try this! Royce is a GOP House Member. If his seat goes to a RAT, it’s one less seat in the margin that keeps the GOP in control of that body. So it should “interest” you.
First, Republicans in California need to team up with ALL California minor political parties and, actually, work together for more, fairer elections. Then, these political parties, combined, need to do all that they can do to put an end to the present California rule where, only, the highest two “vote getters” get to compete, in each and every general election, even if the final two candidates belong to the same political party! The California Democrats will, always, have an unfair political advantage, for as long as this present law remains in place!
This state has become SO OVERRUN with illegals in once VERY CONSERVATIVE areas a republican winning a seat any longer has become IMPOSSIBLE!!! Put someone ANYONE on the ticket with a Hispanic name and BOOM they win!!!! CA. is a LOST CAUSE and this is EXACTLY WHY we NEED THE WALL!!! Bob Dornan lost in once a VERY CONSERVATIVE district to Sanchez the rest of the state has become a LOST CAUSE also, this state WILL NEVER regain what it once was NEVER!!!!
CA is a solid blue state that gets bluer everyday. Hillary won CA by 4.3 million votes.
Sounds like he believes in the “blue wave”. Better the wusses clear out. Ain’t gonna be no blue wave, but the Dems will act as if it’s real, and when things get nasty, you can’t have people who will fold guarding your flanks.
If the wall isn’t built, and soon, you can watch Texas turn blue in the next 5 years if not sooner.
If that happens, it’s GAME OVER.
