I just read that Kolbe had already left the Republican Party, so that’s a lie. By that logic, you could say Hillary is a Republican who endorsed Biden.

Flake’s remarks were pitiful posturing and consultant drivel.

I believe his family owned a big ranch. So there must have been plenty of steers and queers.

“Kolbe is now a fellow at the German Marshall Fund think tank and a consultant at Kissinger McLarty Associates. He focuses on issues that were his priorities when he was in Congress—trade, aid and migration. In the fall semesters 2007 to 2009, he taught a class on trade and globalization at the University of Arizona James E. Rogers College of Law in Tucson. He is a member of the board of directors of the International Republican Institute.[18] During the 2010 election he broke from the Republican Party to endorse the candidacy of Democrat Andrei Cherny for state treasurer.[19] He is also a member of Washington D.C. based think tank the Inter-American Dialogue.[20]

In September 2010, President Barack Obama appointed Kolbe to the Advisory Committee for Trade Policy and Negotiations.[21] Kolbe currently serves on the Board of Advisors for International Relief and Development Inc.[22] He is also a Co-Chairman of the dollar coin alliance.[23] Kolbe serves on the Board of Directors of the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget.[24]” - Wiki


“Jim Kolbe, a Republican who represented Southern Arizona in Congress for 22 years, confirmed Friday that he left the GOP — in 2018.

“I’ve told people but I didn’t make a public announcement,” Kolbe said Friday.

The Pima County Recorder’s Office confirmed Kolbe changed his registration to Party Not Designated in September 2018.”
