The non-partisan way he approached this interview with blunt honesty regardless of which party he was talking about really impressed me! I may not agree with all of his political views but I can't help respect him for his integrity. The US needs more people like Adam Kinzinger on both sides of the aisle! Having the courage and the desire to do the right thing no matter the cost to oneself are highly admirable characteristics and should be applauded by all, no matter party affiliation.

We raise our children this way and it’s the foundation on which I built my business with great success, to always do the right thing regardless of the outcome because I believe in the longterm it will always benefit you. When I look at todays political environment I often wonder am I the only person left that feels this way ? We need more folks in our country and in Washington like Kinzinger and Cheney that put morals and values over political gain and short term victory. I still believe in the end doing the right thing wil prevail. God bless our country and may they find the courage to do the right thing.

Take it or leave it Donald J Trump is the one sent from God to take back America to the original plan of God for the nation; that's WHY he's getting so many HATE...

Representative Rigell, I have a quick question for you that I've been wanting someone with your experience to answer. Within your own party, when there is so much cowardice or lack of integrity dominating the political landscape, why does shame not have a stronger impact on elected individuals? Is it because you're constantly surrounded by colleagues whose presence supports bad behavior for political survival? I'm thinking about the 30 or so Senators today who turned their back on supporting Vets on the PACT Act vote. The cognitive dissonance between the rhetoric and the action is just so hard to wrap my head around. Any inside opinion would be interesting and valuable. Thanks for your time, a non-party affiliated American.

Ted cruz after calling his wife ugly & degrading names goes & licks trumps boots the very night he won primary. “Oh forget all the nastyness towards my wife just a wk ago were bff now” 🙄 exactly How it looked. Imo most don’t like trump but tolerate his ignorant, dangerous rhetoric bc they only care about power!

"Historian Anne Applebaum points to the way institutions can be delegitimized by cynically suggesting that everyone is as bad as the worst authoritarians. This kind of “whataboutism” leads to claims like “Putin is a killer, but so are we all.” It rejects the Jeffersonian idea of spreading liberty across the globe. Instead, it adopts an inward-looking nationalism. Implicitly, it rebuffs the role that the United States played in foreign policy for much of the twentieth century. Moral equivalence, Applebaum maintains, “undermines faith, hope and the belief that we can live up to the language of our Constitution.”22 It is reflected in the apocalyptic pessimism of Trump’s inaugural address, with its talk of “American carnage”-a far cry from the sunny optimism of Reagan’s “morning in America.” If you can convince people that your political opponents are trying to undermine the nation itself, then it becomes easier to justify breaking the rules in order to save the country."

Karl Griffiths Yes. "My respect for this man grows by the day," too. My Illinois ancestors had been Whigs, became Lincoln supporters immediately and remained Republicans. When I went to grad school in Chapel Hill, I learned of Terry Sanford, etc., and have been a mostly reliable Dem ever since. However.... At age 44, home-grown with 6 terms as a US rep for IL, an Air Force fighter pilot now a Lt. Col., with strong service along with Rep. Cheney on the important J6 committee, Adam Kinzinger has powerful creds and continues to become more important to more of us...and me...by the day. 8/6/22.

I have a lot of respect for Adam. He's honest, objective and willing to sacrifice his own political well being out of his allegiance to truth, the law and the constitution - which is A LOT MORE than can be said for nearly all the Republicans in the House and the Senate today. And I say that as a former Republican.

CNN: Corrupt News Network... Everybody in the committee are all Trump haters including CNN so what do you expect??? The Bible says when the RIGHTEOUS rule the people rejoice, when the EVIL rule the people perish.. Proverb 29:1 I am not saying Donald J Trump is the savior. He's not the saviour of the World but he's God sent. God will not come down himself to save you; he Always send someone. Another human precisely to represent him. Take it or leave it Donald J Trump is the one sent from God to take back America to the original plan of God for the nation; that's WHY he's getting so many HATE... CNN: Corrupt News Network If you count the numbers of times CNN, MSNBC, CBS, the view and all fake news media mentioned Donald Trump repeatedly compared to how many times they've mentioned Biden Name since he took office.. you'll laugh out LOUD to their hypocrisy and badly they need Trump back to increase their rating. Adam crying kinza Trump hater right from the day he announced he's running for presidential office.

I am center left politically. I've voted for some good Republicans and Democrats. if Adam were my congressman I'd vote for him in 2 seconds.. as an independent, I like to go with the candidates whom I believe are the better guy or gal.. I am fiscally conservative.. neither party is these days.. also, just the intellectual garbage can of the ppl djt appointed/surrounded himself with, was just too much.. we definitely need younger players in politics. especially at the executive level.. neither of these current choices are even close to being in their primes..

Glad that you were able to break free and own your mistakes. This man is someone upon whom you can rely to make a difference. He keeps an open mind. He learns. He changes. He acts. He is willing to accept the consequences of applying what he has learnt. You should be building your country on younger people like these. You are not going to survive unless you evolve into a more thinking country, honest with yourselves, owning your history and moving FORWARD in a more inclusive way.
