Congressman Ken Buck, a Republican from Weld County, says his office in Windsor will soon be forced to move after receiving an eviction notice. Buck, a longtime resident of Weld County, received an eviction notice from his Water Valley office space.

A spokesperson for Buck said the eviction notice was given as a result of Buck's refusal to vote for Jim Jordan as Speaker of the House of Representatives.

Buck also told reporters he received death threats due to his voting against Jordan for the position which would put Jordan second in line for the presidency.

I don't know anything about this guy, but good for him for sticking to his guns and not making an obviously awful choice.

On one hand, I'm inclined to agree with you, but on the other hand, being a Republican in 2023 to begin with shows he makes obviously awful choices.

Credit where credit is due, I guess, but only a tiny bit.
