'Will your US Senator return to live in your state when his Senate career ends?'

From Ace of Spades HQ

"If the answer is “No” then he is not representing your state. He is likely representing Washington DC, which despite having zero elected Senators, actually has about 50 or 60 Senators whose priority is representing the DC Beltway establishment instead of the US states that elected them.

"Unsurprisingly, with the resignation of Ben Sasse (R-NE) from the US Senate, he is not 'returning home' to Nebraska. He is moving to Florida where he will take on the role of President at the University of Florida. He follows a long list of 'conservative' Senators such as Trent Lott, Dick Lugar, and Mary Landrieu who had no interest in returning to the flyover states that they allegedly represented once their Senate careers had ended.

"A review of Sasse’s resume shows that he left Nebraska after high school, attended Harvard, Yale, St. John’s and Oxford. After he collected all his Masters degrees and PHDs, he taught at the University of Texas, then had a long tenure in government jobs in DC. He finally made a brief return to Nebraska to assume the presidency of a small college, which then set the stage for his Senate campaign…so he could return to DC. In Washington, Senator Sasse did an outstanding job representing the interests of the DC with his constant sermonizing against conservatives and his battles against MAGA Republicans.

"Red state conservatives have got to stop electing representatives and Senators who don’t even want to live in the states they pretend to represent in Congress."
