Poor Adam Kinzinger has seemed completely adrift since he left Congress. He’s supposed to be a CNN commentator now, but it seems that isn’t garnering him the attention he wants. He was on CNN, Tuesday, trying to go after Tucker Carlson’s Jan. 6 coverage of the video footage talking about “people that are so invested in the emotional politics,” that they refuse to accept reality. That’s such a perfect description of Kinzinger, a man known for crying. But former Trump Ambassador to Germany Ric Grenell schooled him with the reality that it was the Committee that didn’t release the video footage.
But who is watching CNN? The answer is: not many people.
So Kinzinger is left to act out on Twitter and try to pick fights with people who are still in Congress — of whom he seems jealous.
Here he is griping about Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) presiding over the House, as members do.
Here’s a funny truth: presiding over the house is NOT something most people want to do. It’s typically a chore reserved for Freshmen… then they tweet about it like it’s a powerful thing.
Most turn down the ask to preside. I was required to twice. I only did twice. https://t.co/JiGcTuuKpN

Gee, she sees it as a service, he sees it as a chore. That tells you everything you need to know right there. I would think it would help you to better understand and appreciate the process.
Then Kinzinger decided he was going to go after a tweet from Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO).
Boebert tweeted “Real men aren’t women.”
Real men aren’t women.

A rather self-evident statement, one would think. But now, with Democrats not seeming to understand what a woman is and thinking you have to be a “biologist” to understand it, unfortunately, the self-evident needs to be said.
The self-evident was too much for Kinzinger, however.
I’m retweeting this for one reason. At around 6:30 central time, Lauren decided to tweet this. Why?
To anger, stir the pot, offend, and give people a dopamine hit. And raise money. No serious mature debate, just debasing of the whole profession. Twitter isn’t real life https://t.co/XFU2SOEvzH

“I’m retweeting this for one reason. At around 6:30 central time, Lauren decided to tweet this. Why?” Kinzinger asked. “To anger, stir the pot, offend, and give people a dopamine hit. And raise money. No serious mature debate, just debasing of the whole profession. Twitter isn’t real life,” says the man who seems to spend all his time throwing things up against the wall on Twitter. He’s like the king of projection, he’s always everything he’s accusing other people of being.
Kinzinger doesn’t have any serious debate with people, he snipes at them from Twitter or CNN. You don’t see him going on Tucker Carlson’s show to defend the J6 Committee. He knows he’d lose.
But he picked the wrong person to go after in Boebert. She’ll fire right back at him (even if she isn’t a biologist) and she did. She finished him.
Don’t worry Adam, I don’t consider you a real man. https://t.co/TN9ZdAq9q6

Oh, my. I’m thinking that one just might leave a mark.
Kinzinger should pack it up and take his own advice. Slink off into the sunset and pay attention to his family. Twitter isn’t real life but he’s obsessed with trying to get attention on it. As we can see, it’s not going very well for him.
