Interesting. If true, I wonder why?

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Two terms is enough.

[Racketeer]

It is too bad more do not leave after two terms. Change is good, very good.

[nickcarraway]

Dem pickup?

[Political Junkie Too]

I wonder why?

Here benefactor Mitch McConnell is retiring, that's why.

Ernst took tours in Kuwait and Iraq. She retired as a lieutenant colonel in the Iowa National Guard.

Maybe Pete Hegseth found out she ain't all she pretends to be.

Ernst is full of Shiite. We voted for her to cut the balls off Washington pork. She joined the DC club and never did anything she promised

[Fungi]

Joni ran on “castrating pigs” yet she joined the castrated Rinos in DC and did not castrate anything in DC. That water in DC is very strange, turns everyone into feckless fools.

[AAABEST]

Ernst, the first female combat veteran in Congress..

Yeah okay whatever. I'm absolutely positive swamp-wench was digging in and taking fire everywhere she went.

GTFO, self serving globo-whore.

[spacejunkie2001]

Hope there’s a solid MAGA candidate lined up for her seat. She was always questionable.

[escapefromboston]

Two terms is enough anyways.

“Maybe Pete Hegseth found out she ain’t all she pretends to be.”

Good point - given Pete’s job, maybe he checked into her military record and perhaps she didn’t exactly storm the beach at Normandy, or whatever she has claimed to get elected.

[Sgt_Schultze]

She is clearing her schedule as a potential VP candidate on the 2028 R ticket..

[MinorityRepublican]

She is clearing her schedule as a potential VP candidate on the 2028 R ticket..

I'll prefer Tulsi Gabbard...

[HYPOCRACY]

Good riddance to this deep state hag.

[lewislynn]

I found out after my comment on this thread that she has a history of campaign promises pretending to be what she ain’t.

[VanShuyten]

I sure hope Iowa doesn’t revert to the idea of “fairness” as they did in the past. That resulted in a conservative Republican and a liberal Democrat.

[SuperLuminal]

She had always stated that she would serve just two terms... Now it's time for her to go to the private sector with its guaranteed huge salaries for ex-elected federal politicians, where it's OK to take and spend bribes...

[God luvs America]

Yeh- and kamala harris is up 3pts in Iowa
