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.

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.
