So far, 19 R-Tribe congresspersons decided to bail out. More to come?

Re: They Decided to Pack It In
A lot of the one retiring are moderates which IF their replacements are more alt-righters we could get a lot of crazy legislation hitting the books. Given gerrymandering it is often the case where one tribe member is just replaced by the same tribal member. Our political system is such a mess.
Fortunately I think we are starting to see a lot of blow back to the current craziness that is going on.

Looks like a wave of retirements are coming.
