Might be true but nobody believes Fake News CNN anymore.

It’s time career politicians take his lead. Being in Congress shouldn’t be a lifetime career.

Ass

The old democrats should take note Pelosi Shumer

Maybe some of the Democrat old lifers will follow suit! democratlosers

Will you ask that of all of congress people who have been in for decades and are now reaching 80 years old ?

That is how it should be. Move on with your life. Not make your life in D.C Founders moved on. That is why there is corruption and a “swam”, Military industrial complex and agencies accountable to no one.

See dems!! This is how its done. 40 years in congress is a scam. Gtfo!!

Great just give it to another democrat. That’s all Florida needs

Ted Yoyo

Too bad it wasn't mattgaetz

Good one less useless, brainwashed republican

They all should take note. There should be term limits

Republicans with honesty and integrity are like 5 & 6, unlike the other party

🎉🎉 VoteBlue

Only a repub would do that.

Thank you for your service Sir... You’ll be missed

Term limits

If that's true..its hard to believe anything CNN says...but if true he will change his mind when Trump is re-elected.

Too bad the rest of Congress won’t follow his lead!

Term limits are the way to go!thank you for the courage to let others have a chance of also making a difference!

Term limits should apply to House, senate and presidency. The founding fathers never meant it to be a lifetime gig. 4- 2 year terms for house, 2 6 year terms for Senate. POTUS remains the same. This would stop most of the bi partisan BS. Common sense dictates this approach

This is an enormous loss to the institution. TedYoho is the only large animal vet in the US Congress! What will DevinCow and DevinNunes do

Bashar al-Assad insists I do not want to negotiate with Turkey because of Erdogan's support for terrorism.Syria ImpeachmentHearings

Unlike Democrats

Please help vote for Trumps impeachment. Thank you for keeping your word. Your an example to follow.

Rep. Quigley: Trump has ‘never been held accountable for anything he’s done wrong’Speaker Nancy Pelosi has officially asked top House Democrats to begin drafting articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump, with a vote expected before the end of the year. Rep. Mike Quigley (D-IL) joins Alex Witt to discuss the mood within the party and why he believes Democrats are “doing the right thing.” I get stressed if I need an excuse to miss jury duty, Trump doesn’t care about the law because he believes he is above the law. Its about time someone slaps him down with an IMPEACHMENT and FIRE him from the WH. Then the SDNY will get the ball rolling with indictments against trump for TAX FRAUD, MONEY LAUNDERING, PERJURY, OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE, WITNESS INTIMIDATION and TAMPERING as a start. What has he done wrong goofus?

Rep. Cohen: Graham’s lack of understanding of ‘high crimes’ shown during Clinton trial — and todayRep. Cohen responds to Sen. Graham remarks that impeachment will meet a quick end in the Senate, saying that Sen. Graham 'didn't understand what high crimes and misdemeanors are' during the Clinton impeachment and that 'his past has tainted him.' I have seen you speak on tv many times, and you are no one to judge anyone else’s understanding of things. Graham should be forced out of office for refusing to do his duty, and admitting that the fix is in for Trump. Every Republican who votes to acquit should be tried for treason. The dem's own impeachment report states that it does not establish any crimes were committed.... Then they argue that they don't need a crime to impeach.
