Rep. Justin Amash is celebrating this Fourth of July in a manner years in the making: by declaring his independence from the Republican Party.
No matter your circumstance, Im asking you to join me in rejecting the partisan loyalties and rhetoric that divide and dehumanize us, Amash wrote in a Washington Post op-ed posted Thursday morning. Im asking you to believe that we can do better than this two-party system and to work toward it. If we continue to take America for granted, we will lose it.
Amash, perhaps the most fiscally conservative member of Congress, has increasingly been at odds with the GOP. In May, he became the first and only Republican in Congress to call for the impeachment of President Donald Trump. And in June, Amash stepped down from the once-ideologically conservative, now steadily more partisan House Freedom Caucus.

GOP is laden with McCainocrats, Obamacans, neocons and banal Jeff Sessions.
Democrats have been calling Republicans nazis on the floor of Congress for almost 20 years.
This simpleton is wrong when he blames division on Trump’s rhetoric.
Communists have done this. Way to trash the 4th of July and crlebrate the enemy.

Blimey!
“Amash wrote in a Washington Post op-ed “
Still under the table for his leftie fanboys.
He needs to just fricking resign the seat, because his district didnt vote for some inde, and we are tired of his $%@%$ grandstanding like he is some prince dying at the alter of righteousness.
Its been clear for some time that this scumbag is a narcissist. Of course he would do this on July 4th.
Is this Justin I’mAnAss?
Going straight to the trashcan of history.
Buh by.
And he does it in the deep state propaganda tool that is the Washington Post. The guy is trash.
Squash Amash!
Simply a tactical move, he knew hed never survive a republican primary.. so he will now run as an incumbent democrat in hopes of holding his seat.
Pathetic.
“In fact, the complaints he’s making about the Republican Party are the same ones you see all over Free Republic.”

He is a fake, a disgusting poseur.
Dont believe he would have called for the impeachment of Obama.
No Democrat could do what DJT has done, and is doing, to the Republican party. He broke it along with the Clinton, and now Biden-wing of the Dims. Best presidency ever for this former R.
I quit amash long before he has finally, thankfully quit the Republican Party. I have NOT voted for him the last 2 election cycles, and look forward to a real choice this time around. Good riddance to bad trash.
Bah Bye ! (Is Glenn Beck crying?)
The last rat I can recall who even a tiny bit went against the party (not counting the commies these days who say it isnt far enough to the left) was Joe Lieberman, and he was excoriated and sent to Coventry by the rest of the rats.
It seems every time we turn around, another Republican is turning against the Republican Party after being elected. It happens way too often for there to not be a pattern, which means intention, which seems to mean, IMO, that rats are infiltrating the Republican Party. It wouldnt be heard-of, its what theyve done to every institution they couldnt take over from the outside (like the nominal Christian church, I say nominal because theyre Christians in name only, denying the Word of the God of Christianity, ie the one and only God).
They took over media and academia in like manner.
These RINOs always get elected first as Republicans, then turn.
Didnt see that one coming,not
So he goes from being a non-entity to being...what?
DNC control, a deal was made
