JUST IN: Never Trumper Ben Sasse Resigning Senate Seat
GatewayPundit ^ | 10/06/2022 | Christina Laila

Sasse won reelection in 2020, and his term was not set to expire until 2026. But Sasse has been at odds with Trump and his own party for years. After the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, Sasse was one of seven Republican senators who voted to convict Trump for his role in inciting the deadly riot.

Senate Republican leadership has been alerted of the news, a leadership aide told NBC News.

According to Fox News, Sasse is headed to the University of Florida for a lucrative gig.

Just another angle (leftists) to pursue. Hit them from the right and left. He could become the most unpopular guy in Florida with very little effort.

Why did it have to be UF?

Could it be the nickname for the football stadium is familiar to him? (The Swamp)

Bernard Edwards on bass ‘made’ the song, laid down a fantastic part. I had forgotten this one, now I have to learn it, thanks!

Sasse is of the Romney/Bulwark/Lincoln project stripe.

Speaking of the "Lincoln Project", what is it that they do exactly? The only Lincoln project I know was his plan to repatriate all former slaves to their African homeland. Unfortunately Booth cut short Lincoln's path to healing a divided nation. If the Lincoln Project is picking up the plan where Lincoln left off, then kudos to them.

“Bails in October, and leaves the seat up in the air.”

No, the governor of Nebraska gets to appoint a person to serve the rest of his term, which ends in 2026.

How likely is Ricketts to nominate a decent senator Republican.

That last name does not recommend at all for a solid choice. Terrible name for a Governor btw.

So, Ben Sasse wasn't raising funds and decided to leave with his war chest intact.

The world owes an immeasurable debt to President Trump for how he got these folks to no only take off their masks but they also threw them on the ground and stomped on them.

Would the Governor of Nebraska be an improvement over Sasse?

There’s a Lincoln Project that’s trying to build a ‘Port of Lincoln’ on the Mississippi River. I know a music artist who is involved in the promotional part.
