The National Republican Congressional Committee’s (NRCC) chief financial officer, Rob Jentgens, resigned from his post this month after a majority of House Republicans voted against certifying President Joe Biden’s victory, according to CNN.

Jentgens was reportedly livid that the GOP lawmakers had still voted against certification even after a violent mob of President Donald Trump’s supporters stormed the Capitol.

Michael McAdams, the NRCC’s communications director, confirmed Jentgens’ departure to CNN.

  1. Boy, the secrets the financial guy from the NRCC has have to be right up there with Capone’s accountant.

  2. Is it shocking or astounding or simply unbelievable when a Republican…does the right thing, morally and/or patriotically?

    I hate it that I can’t say “All Republicans are racists, homophobes, anti-semites, grifters, or their wealthy overlords.” So now I have to say “Most Republicans” or “A majority of Republicans” are racists, homophobes, anti-Semites, grifters, or their wealthy overlords". I hate nuance. How can I say this: Nuance is for pussys! LOL.

  3. No kidding. Hope he has life insurance if he has a family.
