Less than a month removed from serving in Congress, former GOP Rep. Adam Kinzinger of Illinois recently spoke about his "detox" from political life, where he stated that he "thanked God" for not being a part of the contentious series of House votes to elect Rep. Kevin McCarthy of California as speaker.

Kinzinger, who served in Congress for 12 years and became one of the most prominent voices on the House January 6 committee, appeared on Charlie Sykes' Bulwark podcast in his new capacity as an ex-legislator and a more distant observer of the ins and outs of politics in Washington, DC.

"The detox to me is just kind of like, 'Okay, I can start putting it away more.' I don't actually have to watch the news all the time. I feel less responsible for the dysfunction and it's nice to feel less responsible for the dysfunction of the greatest country in the world," Kinzinger said.

Ho ho. The cryingest, that's for sure.

[Mr. Lucky]

Well, apparently there is something upon which we and Mr. Kinzinger can agree.

Poor AK, he was left without a seat after his Democrat buds redistricted him into oblivion.

[fedupjohn]

So is our Country, Numb Nuts!

[dennisw]

This tosser is embarrassing himself. At least he is no longer a Rep. So all he has left is his motor mouth.

Adam, I think the GOP will somehow struggle on and continue to serve the American people, even without you.
Have fun, being surrounded (and quietly laughed at) by your new Democrat ‘friends’!

“Adam Kinzinger said he ‘thanked God’ that he wasn’t on the House floor...”

And why weren’t you on the House floor, Adam? Oh, that’s right, your democrat friends repaid your going after President Trump by redistricting you out of your district and seat. That’s a real shame.

[Dave911]

We’re glad you weren’t there also you pathetic little media whore.

[Fledermaus]

I’m grateful too that he’s out of Congress must be a district of morons.

[Charlemagne on the Fox]

Well, Adam . . . it works for me too. Just sayin . . .

[kempster]

We are all thankful Adam.

[EQAndyBuzz]

Who cares?

[DarthVader]

I’m glad he was not there either. Treasonous POS!

When Kinzinger looks in the mirror he sees Seth Rich.

” Former GOP Rep. Adam Kinzinger said he ‘thanked God’ that he wasn’t on the House floor during Kevin McCarthy’s contentious speaker vote process” or he would have cried his eyes out.
