Mark Meadows to leave Congress at end of term

Mark Meadows to leave Congress at end of term

Rep. Mark Meadows, R-N.C.,  will not seek re-election, he confirmed in a statement Thursday. The four-term Congressman said that he will be retiring at the end of his term.

“This was a decision I struggled with greatly. These last 8 years, I have been so blessed to serve the people of NC-11 and help give a voice to millions of Americans who feel Washington, D.C. has forgotten them,” he said in a statement......

.........."Since serving alongside President Trump, I have been a witness to historic economic prosperity, unemployment levels I only dreamed of when I took office, tax and regulatory reforms that are putting the American worker first, our Israeli embassy moved to Jerusalem, and trade deals that were once thought impossible," he said. "I have seen our law enforcement and first responders receive the support they deserve and our military once again put on a path to maintain its superiority."

Meadows went on to say that his work with Trump and the administration "is only beginning," and he is "fully committed to staying in the fight with him and his team."................

I hope you are wrong about that because if you're right,it will never change because the Dims will keep importing illegals and giving them the vote until they get enough votes to dissolve America and establish a socialist state that is a part of the UN.

People talk about Congress but the president has been signing amnesty in these spending bills since he was elected.  That wall is a farce.  Does nothing.

If you thought that Trump was serious about illegal immigration he would designate the Cartel terrorists also.  We can't expect to stop the flow of immigrants when there is a cartel business at the border.  Mexico is becoming more out of control.  More dangerous and a less desirable place.

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.

How are you going to be able to fill your days with senseless hatred once Trump leaves office in 2024?

You aren't going anywhere are you?

GOP House polling must be horrific.  Is Meadows even qualified to join the WH?  Does he speak Russian?  Can he rack up enough felonies to stand out of the crowd?  Can he steam pants? Maybe he'll replace Rudy when he goes to prison.  He could be a food taster or toilet flusher.

Hopefully, a suitable replacement for Mr. Meadows can be found.

But... folks... isn't this what we WANT?

That is, individuals who will serve in Congress for a modest period of time, without becoming CongressCritters, and then make way for someone else...?

I mean... I mean...  I mean...
How many folks here support the concept of "term limits"?
Isn't Mr. Meadows an example of this?
