Loathesome slug and all around creep Darrell Issa is retiring, presumably to go spend more time with his money:
Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) will not seek reelection this year, according to a local report on Wednesday, increasing Democrats’ chances of flipping his swing district in their favor.
Issa barely won reelection in 2016 by just over half a percentage point in a San Diego-area district that went for Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton by about 7 points.
The OC Daily reported Wednesday that Issa will not be seeking reelection. Issa’s office did not immediately confirm the report.
It’s great to see him go (for a very limited primer on his awfulness, click here), and Democrats will have to really fuck things up to not win this seat anyway (DNC: HOLD MY BEER!), but I do regret not savoring his ass being beaten like a rented mule on election day.
At any rate, for one last time, go fuck yourself Darrell Issa, you piece of shit.
