Conspiracy speculation, for sure. Ryan has to be bought off or have some scandal that's being kept hidden. He's served his purpose, doing everything he can to undermine President Trump. So his handlers have told him it's time to go. There's probably a dem in the wings that will be one more seat to end the Republican majority.

Thanks, Paul Ryan. You're a member of the triumvirate of traitors most responsible for backstabbing us....John Roberts, John McCain, Paul Ryan

The cause of the scandal is speculated as “corporate finance irregularities”. I wonder if POTUS hasn’t gotten some reluctant cooperation from Ryan via leverage.

I’ll give him his props though...he didn’t let any gun control go through.

No conspiracy at all here. He's just been completely ineffective as House Speaker -- that's all. And the price the GOP will pay for it is that he'd be the House minority leader in 2019 anyway.

When we got to the end of 2017 and the Republicans hadn't done anything to fix ObamaCare despite promising to repeal it for more than seven years, the party's credibility was destroyed and its leadership exposed as political frauds.

This recent omnibus spending bill was just icing on the cake.

Hey lighten up, he just said he wanted to spend more time with his family. </s>
