| Neal Dunn's days are numbered literally. |
Another one in the Republican controlled House of Representatives could be seeing the pearly gates if there was ever one. What will happen, he will either be placed in a box being buried in the dirt or cooked in an oven into ashes for an urn or trinket.
As a Republican lawmaker from Florida and a former surgeon, Neal Dunn knows the diagnosis isn't good. He already informed House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) it may be weeks or days, who know?
Rep. Neal Dunn (R-FL), 73 represents the 2nd Congressional District of Florida. It includes Tallahassee, Panama Coty Beach, Perry, Youngstown, Ponce de Leon and Greenville.
A reliable vote for President Donald J. Trump's chaotic policies.
Another one of these pro Israel Republicans who care about that goddamn apartheid genocidal ethnostate instead of his fucking district. If he dies or retires before his term ends, it leaves a one seat gap. Doug LaMalfa died in January. Marjorie Taylor Greene resigned in January.
Johnson, deferred to Dunn when asked about his plans but said he urged the Florida Republican to stay in Congress.
"He is a beloved member of Congress and a great man. And, you know, he's informed us he's not going to run for re-election. And what he does from here forward, I'm not sure," Johnson told reporters.
"You need to ask him about it. But I've encouraged him to stay and be part of this, and I think he wants to do that. And so you have to ask him all the circumstances."
Dunn told reporters he had "no comment" on the matter that same day, according to CNN.
Another Republican departure before the March special election to fill the seat abruptly vacated by former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., would see the House margin fall to 217 to 214.
It would mean that Johnson would be dealing with a one-seat margin of error likely until August, when California Gov. Gavin Newsom has scheduled the special election to replace the late Rep. Doug LaMalfa, R-Calif.
Dunn announced last month that he would not seek re-election after serving in Congress for nearly a decade.

| Putting Israel ahead of Florida is so Neal Dunn. |
A crowded primary election is forming in his wake, a scramble that could be accelerated by Dunn's possible early retirement.
Special primary elections in Florida generally take place 120 to 130 days after an early departure from Congress, with a general election likely 70 to 80 days after that.
Fox News Digital was told that House lawmakers are conversing with Gov. Ron DeSantis' office about the timing of a possible special election for Dunn, and whether Florida election law would allow for him to remain in office until after a primary election concludes.
But Fox News Digital was also told that lawmakers do not believe it's likely that Dunn will leave his seat early if that possibility does not pan out.
Both Dunn and DeSantis' offices did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
