No.

or is a disaster looming at the horizon?

Nunes can see that he's going to redistricted out of a safe seat.

But leaving at the end of this year (versus serving until this term expires in 2023) is ... curious.

Haven’t they been without representation by choice for years?

I think he should look at expanding that media's org staff really quickly. I can suggest some hires for his org:

MTG
Gaetz
That moron in Colorado
Cawthorn
Gosar
Gym

I would add Louis Goober to the list but I don't know if he will still run for Congress while running for AG. He may run himself out of a job in the process. If he does not, we still need at least one to mock.

The cynic in me says I'll believe it when I see it. A personal announcement to the general public isn't exactly an official resignation. Who's to say he won't change his mind or blame the 2021 on a typo that should have said 2022 or any one of a number of other transparent excuses for backtracking? Not to mention there is the possibility things can change with the media giant he's joining. I just cast a jaundiced eye towards anything these fuckwits say that looks like a good move on their part. I don't trust them even a little bit.

So he grows up in Tulare County on a dairy farm. Lotsa Portuguese dairy farmers in that part of the state. Bounces around local politics for a few years and then bursts onto the national scene as a representative 20 years ago.

And this somehow qualifies him to run this media organization? There is more to this story, redistricting or not.

If it is, in fact, the Trump media organization, we all know that the only real qualification to work for Trump is unswerving loyalty and ass-kissing.

So, Devin Nunes is eminently qualified.

And I'll add: a passion for telling lies and betraying his country for power.

It's a tRump organization. The only qualification you need is the willingness to use his excrement as a facial mask.

And then of course the willingness to be thrown under the bus when Trump screws it up.

I would assume it's so that he can legitimately say he didn't lose the election in '22, at some point in the future. He's 'winning' by choosing not to participate in the 'corrupt show'. Or something.

Nunes could not stand for re-election, serve out his current term, leave in January 2023, and still declare himself a not-loser.

So leaving early (purportedly to head to a corporation already under investigation before it has launched) is ... curious.

Maybe he wants to get in on the early grift then while there's still the chance of some cash coming his way?

By gum, if'n the CEO of a billion dollar corporation can't steal from it, who will?

I think that Trump looks at Nunes as a huge plus -- Trump believes, truly believes, that his new company is going to destroy Google, Facebook, and every news station/blog/etc. And Nunes has already proven his loyalty, so Trump wants him as the head of this new global force, plus this means that Trump doesn't actually have to pretend to do work, much less actually do any work. Win win for all -- except those stupid right wing nut jobs that buy stock in the retail market -- SUCKERS.

I got a fundraising email just now asking me to help elect a Democrat to Nunes' district. Email said special election is scheduled for April. I have no idea whether this info is accurate.

It is presumed the special primary election will be held in April, so the special general election can be wrapped into the general primary election in June.

But there's been no announcement yet.

Congressional seats must be filled through elections, per the U.S. Constitution, meaning that Nunes’ seat would need to be filled with either a special election or remain vacated until it is filled in the 2022 midterm elections.

Under California law, the governor must call a special election within two weeks of the vacancy for a primary that would occur within 20 weeks and, later, a general election, meaning the seat would not be filled until the summer at earliest.

The news comes amid this round of redistricting, the process by which legislative boundaries are redrawn, in which early maps were unfavorable to Nunes. His current district would turn from having voted for Trump in 2020 by five percentage points to one that backed President Joe Biden by nine.

That's great. I hope CA redistricting can counterbalance Ohio's grim news.

California re-districting is by a bi-partisan commission, not by the Legislature, so it will not be as gerrymandered as it could be.

GOP Rep. Devin Nunes announced he will leave the House to become CEO of Trump's media company.

It "shows how corrupting the current incentive structure can be inside a political party that has become a cult of personality,"
@JohnAvlon
says. #RealityCheck

I applied for a position on the Citizen Redistricting Committee. Needless to say, I didn’t make the cut.

Yeah, me too.

I gleaned from my rejection notice that I did not do enough volunteer work.

It was an interesting experience, though.
