old news
So are these “retiring” Republicans conservatives, or pseudo-liberal “Bush League”??
Republican Cowards running for the hills.
Bush League BYE BYE !
We need to look at this as an opportunity to replace Bush League Republicans.

According to CR, Conaway gets a 42....not great.
I’m thinking this is RINO pinheads again same as in 2018, hoping they can run for the hills and maybe democrats will pick up their vacated seats, just to make things harder for the “bad orange man”...Maybe if they get out of the way, democrats can keep the house and maybe even grab the senate...
Or maybe it’s more corrupt swamp critters jumping ship, hoping to avoid the blowback when the indictments start.
are they being paid off or threatened?
What’s interesting to me, is that they have chosen to leave during the middle of one of the most Conservative administrations in a long long time.
These folks have the opportunity to help usher in vast change that would be good for the nation, perhaps save it from fiscal ruin. Instead they are opting to take a pass on participation in that amazing opportunity.
Man, if I were on my death bed, I’d have them wheel me in to be a part of the fix. Nah, they’re just moving on...
We aren’t losing much, with these folks leaving > IMO. I don’t like giving the Left a shot at their slots, with newbies on both sides, but we don’t have a say in it.
“Slackers...”
Retiring at the ripe young age of 69. Good for him. Maybe he’ll get to see a lot more of his grandkids.
