Lawmaker Who Engaged In Terrorism Won’t Run Again

Controversial Washington state Rep. Matt Shea (R), who was suspended from the House Republican caucus after an investigation concluded he had engaged in domestic terrorism, will not seek reelection this fall, the Seattle Times reports.

The surprise development came after Shea had for months defiantly refused calls from Republican and Democratic leaders to resign, vowing to fight on and not bow down to what he called “a coup” against him.
