00:00You see, I have never valued power, titles, or attention in spite of all the wrong assumptions

00:06about me. I do not cling to those things because they are meaningless and empty traps that hold

00:12too many people in Washington. I believe in term limits and do not think Congress should be a

00:17lifelong career or an assisted living facility. My only goal and desire has ever been to hold the

00:24Republican Party accountable for the promises it makes to the American people and put America first.

00:31And I have fought against Democrats' damaging policies like the Green New Deal, wide-open deadly

00:36unsafe border policies, and the trans agenda on children and against women. With that has brought

00:43years of non-stop, never-ending personal attacks, death threats, lawfare, ridiculous slander and

00:51lies about me that most people could never withstand even for a single day. It has been unfair and wrong

00:58not only to me but especially to my family, but it's been wrong to my district as well.

01:04I have too much self-respect and dignity. I love my family way too much and I do not want my sweet

01:11district to have to endure a hurtful and hateful primary against me by the president that we all

01:18fought for only to fight and win my election while Republicans will likely lose the midterms and in

01:24turn be expected to defend the president against impeachment after he hatefully dumped tens of

01:31millions of dollars against me and tried to destroy me. It's all so absurd and completely unserious. I refuse to

01:39be a battered wife hoping it all goes away and gets better. If I am cast aside by the president and the

01:46MAGA political machine and replaced by neocons, big pharma, big tech, military industrial war complex,

01:54foreign leaders and the elite donor class that can never ever relate to real Americans, then many

02:01common Americans have been cast aside and replaced as well. There is no plan to save the world or a 4D

02:08chess game being played. When common American people realize and understand that the political industrial

02:16complex of both parties is ripping this country apart, that not one elected leader like me is able to

02:23stop Washington's machine from gradually destroying our country and instead the reality is that they,

02:30common Americans, the people, possess the real power over Washington, then I'll be here by their side to

02:37rebuild it. Until then, I'm going back to the people that I love to live my life to the fullest as I

02:45always have and I look forward to a new path ahead. I'll be resigning from office with my last day being

02:53January 5th, 2026 and I look forward to seeing many of you again sometime in the future.
