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.

    Meh, a big part of me thinks this is misdirection, like maybe he owed a bunch of back-rent and was being evicted, but now instead of being a broke deadbeat, now he can claim that he’s Being Oppressed.

        I was in middle of unconsciously clearing my throat when I started reading your comment. Then I started laughing, while still clearing my throat. Most painful giggle I’ve had in a long time.

        It’s just campaign room talk.
