Chaka Fattah has officially resigned from Congress.
After being convicted on Tuesday, Fattah was initially coy about what he would do next.
Yesterday he announced his intention to step down on October 3rd, the day before his sentencing hearing. Members of Congress, including Speaker Ryan, were not satisfied with this idea.
As a result, Fattah is now resigning effective immediately. Jonathan Tamari of Inquirer broke the news:

Fattah says he is leaving now (not Oct 3) out of respect for the House caucus and so as not to cause a distraction

Hey Retard Bonavita – STFU. We all know who you are.
Bungy, who are you? A Trump wannabe? No need to use “retard.”
Zak – are you a retard too? When Seth gets indicted, Judges vote on an interim DA.
If Seth Williams gets indicted and I think for Lynne the former DA in Phildelphia will take over until a special election gets called.
He just doesn’t feel like joining the sit in.
Have the Feds indicted Seth Williams yet?
