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.

Yeah they will. They'll threaten your lives with social programs all day long if they get the chance. Things like After School care, food programs, poverty assistance, medicare for all, housing placement...the horror. /s

What about that time Obamacare took all our guns and bibles and raped our goats?

I hear he took them all back to Kenya too! /s

Didn't you know? Biden is literally hunting all Republicans!! 😭

True, but they'll means test the hell out of them all, making them highly inefficient and thus ripe for GOP demagogues demanding they be scrapped entirely.

Still much better than the fascists and other demagogues looking for an excuse to defund everything that helps people who need help, of course, but not great.

That is the ultimate horror for the 1%

Imagine having to give back something to all those people you and your ancestors have exploited for your mountain of wealth.
