So say NBC's sources, at least.
He's in California, so his departure will only matter so much... but because it's California, this means there's a real chance a Democrat will take his seat. And this comes on the back of fellow California Republican Ed Royce retiring.
Combine this with...
Trumps talks about a racist real estate developer & yacht orgies to little Boy Scouts, Trumpcare gets slaughtered, McConnell gets a little boo boo, Scaramucci goes full psycho, Preibus is no longer the Chief of Staff, Trump tells NYC cops to violently abuse individuals that they are arresting...

I can't think of a worse insult to the President of PRC than being addressed as president of ROC. Sure it was in the WH press...
CNN understands that Gorka is "expected" to be out soon.
This is clearly a developing story, but I'm curious: is he quitting voluntarily, or is he being pushed out? Is it because he's attracting uncomfortable attention, or because he differs with Trump?

More good news following the shutdown of Geert Wilders in the Netherlands: it looks like Le Pen is going to lose the French national election.

Now I know what the forum conservatives will think: oh, it's from the NYT, therefore it can't be worth reading. But please do. It's someone who's still a dyed-in-the-wool conservative presenting a cogent view on not just what happened with the Republican base, but American politics in general...
