Rep. John Yarmuth (D-KY), chairman of the House Budget Committee and leading the talks on infrastructure, announced Tuesday that he would not be seeking reelection.

“It’s been an incredible journey since my first campaign in 2006 until now. I will continue to fight for Louisville in Washington for another 15 months, and then, I will retire from Congress. I will have plenty more to say in the months ahead,” he tweeted along with a short video:


“This term will be my last,” he said in the short video. Yarmuth explained that he is currently in good health but, knowing the demand of the job, he’s ready to retire to spend more time with his family.

He added that despite becoming a lame-duck member, he wants to spend his time left in Congress to help pass more of the radical agenda from President Joe Biden and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), just like he’s done for the last year. The retiring congressman has voted 100 percent with Pelosi, not disagreeing on any of the significant votes with the speaker.

Breitbart News has extensively reported on Pelosi’s majority crumbling. Doing so, Breitbart News has kept track of the Democrats’ struggle to find new candidates willing to run for office and face published scrutiny. Without successfully finding recruits and many members looking to retire or run for higher office, Pelosi’s chances of keeping the slim Democrat majority in Congress are shrinking.

Democrats trying to fight to stay in the majority are also facing tough redistricting battles. Politico recently outlined the House Democrats spending their last two elections (2018 and 2020) talking about their achievements of unseating members in red districts — which have since gotten more competitive over the years — but did not realize the majority of the districts, they spend millions of dollars and hundreds of hours fighting for could disappear after redistricting.

No. Its either the result of stupid Kentuckians, or the result of whoever controlled the counting of the votes !

Last time Mitch the Bitch had a primary opponent, Wesley Morgan, from Richmond, Kentucky foolishly went with Mitch the Bitch. that was a BIG mistake !!! I personally know Morgan. He would have been a GREAT replacement.

Trump should have endorsed Morgan. But Trump foolishly endorsed Mitch the Bitch !!

BIG mistake in his judgement !!!!

Mitch = :poop:

Some politicians are better at reading the tea leaves better than others. Shipping backed up the yazoo? Store shelves getting empty? Nine meals till civil unrest/revolution? Seventy million or more armed, pissed, and hungry Americans, or more? The rest just hungry and desperate. Not to mention the illegals, they probably will not be happy either when the dream goes bust. Socialists' always run out of other people's money.

Your options: "retire" gracefully, run for the hills and hope people forget your part in making the mess or hold onto what maybe waning power? Seems like a no brainer to me.

I think nancy and this demon came into the house about the same time. Well he is probably seeing the writing on the wall and the first out is going to fare better than the ones that leave kicking and screaming like nancy.

The thread title should probably read " internal majority", and even that's soft.

All being said and done, if the full up Maxists find any "common ground" with the "regular" DNC Swamp Critters, Nancy could be gone as fast as they could agree upon a replacement.
