Rep. Adam Kinzinger to Launch PAC Challenging GOP’s Embrace of Donald Trump
Breitbart ^ | 31 Jan 2021 | KATHERINE RODRIGUEZ

Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL), one of the ten Republicans who voted to impeach former President Donald Trump, is launching a political action committee (PAC) to challenge leadership in the GOP still aligned with the former president.

Kinzinger, who was once part of the 2010 class of Tea Party Republicans, said the Capitol Hill riots on January 6 was the straw that broke the camel’s back for the direction of the Republican Party, dividing those who wanted to move towards autocracy and those who wanted to return to a path of traditional conservatism, the Washington Post reported.

Kinzinger formally introduced his Country 1st PAC in a Sunday Meet the Press interview, followed by a six-minute campaign-style video launching what he hopes will transform the party from its current state.

“The reality is this: This is a time to choose … And my goal in launching Country1st.com is just to say, look, let’s take a look at the last four years, how far we have come in a bad way, how backward-looking we are, how much we peddle darkness and division,” Kinzinger said on the program.

“And that’s not the party I ever signed up for. And I think most Republicans didn’t sign up for that,” he added.

“Republicans must say enough is enough. It’s time to unplug the outrage machine, reject the politics of personality, and cast aside the conspiracy theories and the rage,” Kinzinger says in the launch video.

He also called politicians such as Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) “political terrorists.”

Kinzinger says he is not vying for leadership in the GOP or some form of higher office. His goal is just to drive the conspiracy theorists and racists out of the Republican Party.

He’s the front man. There are forces behind him who would rather not be the faces of this “movement” and you know who they are.

He appeared at a couple Tea Party Events I was at in 2010. He used us to beat his democrat incumbent. In this blue state he never speaks out against Dems so he’s allowed to exist.

Does it make a difference to this clown that the 'riot' on Jan 6 was pre-planned by radical groups that was not supported by Trump?

Does it make a difference to this fool that the election was stolen with 74 million voters disenfranchised by the fraudulent votes?

Does it make any difference to this idiot that he violated his oath of office by voting for a slate of electors that were picked without any true audit of the ballots or voting machines?

Did this jackass read the forensic audit report from Antrim County Michigan?

Let’s hope. So many seem to get re-elected regardless of how wacky they become.

It would appear it would be best to primary and remove Kinzinger - and not just for this reason. He has fully gone Washington. It’s a shame - had high hopes for him as a member of the young generation coming into office.
