Assuming that Ken Buck did not get tapped on the shoulder by the USIC for zipper problems, a rather substantial assumption all things considered, perhaps the Colorado representative just wanted to give his UniParty allies a pre-election day assist at flipping the House.

Fox News – Colorado U.S. Representative Ken Buck announced on Tuesday that he we will resign from the House by the end of next week.
[…] Buck has served in the U.S. House of Representatives since November 2014 and is currently assigned to the House Judiciary Committee and Foreign Affairs Committee.
Buck was also one of three House Republicans who opposed the impeachment of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.
Buck previously announced he was not running for another term. His resignation will squeeze the GOP’s majority even more.
The breakdown will be 431 members with 218 Republicans and 213 Democrats. Now, the GOP will only be able to lose two votes of their own on any given issue. (read more)
In related news, the people around Joe Biden have submitted their fiscal year 2025 budget proposal to congress. [pdf here] The ridiculous spending request is $7.3 trillion, that’s TRILLION, which is $1 trillion more than this year.
While jaws are agape at the insanity of such a spending proposal [NPR outline], let me remind everyone that the people behind Biden fully expect a Central Bank Digital Currency to pave the way for unlimited spending.
The global cleaving has a purpose and benefit that is much larger than just eliminating the dollar as a lesser value trade currency. Digital money can be valued and/or devalued by those who express “full faith and credit” in the same institutions that manufacture jobs, GDP and inflation data…. all of which determine national value.
Just as they define the new “western democracy,” so too can they define the value of the leader nation in the new “western democracy.” Hail Hydra!
Feel better now Comrades?
…Let’s Go Trump!
So…..one less Dem in the House, cool!
THIS is Buck, this punk, very likely was just told by CNN and/or MSNBC that if he wants his appearance contract with them he needs to begin SHORTLY as the primaries are essentially done and they’re now ramping up even more their satanic cultural marxist narrative to a microscopic audience. For those who somehow still don’t know Buck spews his BS frequently on both CNN and MSNBC. Mark this post and stay tuned. I spit on Buck and 90% of “-r”.
No, not really, not yet.
Wrong. The Democrat Governor will replace Buck with a Democrat.
Governor’s can’t appoint a US Congressman, just a Senator.
The idea is that the special election would be the same day as the primary, so Lauren Boebert won’t be able to run in both. They will use a RINO to lose the special election to a Dem who then will have a chance to beat Boebert in the fall. These bastards are evil.
The republican party in Colorado is pure manure. They don’t fight.
Exactly. Who ever this Democrat is will be shoe in November 2024
Ye of little faith.
People with an ounce of sense , even in CO , are sick and tired of the Commie left stuff.
A MAGA repub needs to stand up and run for this office.
special election
Hopefully the other Trump-hating-RINO’s who leave will be replaced by conservatives.
Ryan flipped the House in 2018, to get Trump impeached. They’ll do it again. Then they have to buy 67 Senators. Their paymasters will demand it.
We are going to have to assemble in our tens of millions, eventually.
Had the truck’s GPS set to DC since about 2010.
Bitterly clinging, friend.
Bitterly clinging.
Check Buck’s bank accounts and his back pockets,
And the big payoff “Book Deal club” that teams of Ghost writers write while the politician gets the big $$$
I was thinking the same thing. He left a potential pile of money to be “made” on the table by leaving after 10 years.
Maybe he speculated what he could have made and that became his price for leaving.
A** hat, because I don’t want to put hole behind it.
Any question he was bought off in one way or another?
They know Pres. Trump will win…and they can’t hand him the house too…
Buck was a boobytrap the Democrats planted in the Republican caucus designed to blow up at just the right time.
And there are more.
Only a couple more Ken Bucks to give hakim the House so they have both houses. This will become a reality and then the real dirty tricks will commence. Voting won’t get you outa this one…..
Exactly. I want them caught, renditioned, tortured beyond endurance, children turned into slaves, Ken, Ryan, McCarthy, McConnell, Biden, Schmer, et al made to publicly confess every detail of their treason, televised … To televise the dark, enslaved future they wish for our children, every horror disclosed to the people, and then let the people at them, to wreak on them horrors unimaginable, over and over, and over … a la Island of Dr. Moreau.
Admirably imaginative. Thank you.
Buck’s district is the one Lauren Boebert wishes to run in the primary for. It’s more conservative than the one she presently holds office in.
I suspect he and his Dem friends are planning to flip both districts.
Remember, the Dems are aiming to get Jeffries the gavel BEFORE this Congress is dissolved in Jan.
If he has the gavel after Trump is elected in Nov, the Dems can plan shenanigans to prevent him from being certified.
That’s the plan. Hopefully some Republican strategists have your sense.
Well thought out. Take him and make him fear for his and his family’s lives.
Play dirty, as dirty as they are. Dirtier. MAKE THEM PAY THE HIGHIEST PRICE, BECAUSE ITS WHAT THEY DESERVE. MAKE THEM QUIVER IN FEAR.
I’m sick of these a$$holes’ arrogance.
Heads Up Folks!! Three more RINOs are set to walk out giving the house to the left. Corrupt VP Harris will do what Pence should have done for the 2020 rigged election… proving the process is truly there to “certify / de-certify” the election. I knew this was coming when the RINOs started retiring and stepping down early. They would rather see the country crash and burn than lose their power in the Grand Old Party(GOP). Remember, the RNC is now MAGA!

I have heard that Donald Trump supports cash! – as I and everybody I talk to do.
They can’t trace cash.
Didn’t we see this movie before? RINOs baling in hopes of losing the House. Paulie Ryan wrote the screenplay.
“……..Representative Ken Buck Announces He Quits….”
And the Buck stopped here…
Sounds like we won’t be missing much.
Wish you’d quit use old photos of JoeBama in your articles….. Find and use the ugliest and most demeaning photos out there in the public eye….
Enough GOPe types will leave by election day to give Congress to the lefties. That way if they can’t steal it they’ll deny it.
😑
I understand that he is a despicable swamp creature, however, this is horrible news. When Buck was interviewed by Axios over his decision to resign, Buck stated: “I think it’s the next three people that leave that they’re going to be worried about.” I think that this indicates that we will be losing 3 more representatives in the house which will shrink the lead to 215 – 213. Furthermore, his resignation put Lauren Boebert into a precarious position. She was seeking to take his seat in the upcoming election, however, due to his resignation a special election will need to be held. She will have to vacate her seat in order to participate in the special election in June. There is no guarantee she will win and we may lose two more seats, her current and Buck’s giving the democrats a majority in congress.
Buck surprised everyone with this IMMEDIATELY AFTER the disastrously damaging Special Counsel Hur testimony. Impeachment of Biden is looking more and more likely. The facts are now overwhelming. But won’t happen if the Republicans don’t have a few votes to spare. Buck probably just saved Biden from impeachment. No Dem will vote to impeach no matter what the evidence shows. Buck wouldn’t either but his departure cuts the number needed to defeat a vote.
Rep. Buck’s lack of character on display for all to see. In November, 2023 Buck asked his constituents to elect him to a TWO YEAR term – not a 1-1/2 year term. What a sleazeball.
I thought Buck was an OK Rep at first, but now that I look back at his record he hasn’t done us any favors here in Colorado. Who leaves his seat cold turkey with only eight months left on the term? How many past Congressmen have done what he just did… Who does this to his party? It puts a real strain on the next elected Representative (Bobert and the others) in running for the district starting about now… Special Election and at the same time, next years election Nov 5.
This speaks low volumes in the character of Ken Buck in my humble opine!
God curse his soul and his entire line.
“I look forward to staying involved in our political process, as well as spending more time in Colorado and with my
family.”
Stay away from politics, jerk – you’ve done enough damage to your country and state already.
Let your family enjoy your smell from now on and spare the rest of us!
Call him and tell him that. These seditious traitors need to spend the rest of their foul lives looking over their shoulders. Who made them untouchable anyway??
Buck was a phony! He is not a Republican! This adds proof to that claim. He is doing everything he can to throw his seat to the democrats.
Got a call from “the boys back east.” Blackmail machine is all gassed up.
So Buck leaves at a curious moment and states publicly that more GOP reps will follow. If the Deep State wants to block President Trump from the White House then only five more RINOs need to abandon their elected offices and switch out control of congress to Jeffries who will not certify any Trump win. Possible? I say very.
This is part of a plan. 3 more co-opted or compromised R’s will quit handing the majority to the dems who will quickly pass legislation to block Trump from the ballot. That’s what SCOTUS said to CO (Buck’s home state): if you want to block him, congress has to pass a law to do it.
The take down of America is almost complete.
I expect to have it all taken as I will not comply.
But I will not go down on my knees.
We haven’t had a political party majority for decades. Just the illusion there was a choice.
I remember Paul Ryan engineering Nancy’s inheritance of the House. He stonewalled as long as he could and then he made sure that it flipped to commiecrat control. Remember the meeting with Speaker Johnson and Ryan? Any doubts as to what they discussed?
Get on this Lara. Find a good MAGA candidate and push the hell outta him/her with Trumps endorsement.
