Has he quit?
This is the most recent piece I can find is a 100 days old and backing the Maduro capture. And Wikipedia does not mention his leaving the GOP.
Oh nm:

Kinzinger did not seek reelection to Congress in 2022. After leaving office, he joined CNN as a senior political commentator.

~~Lol..Josh Hawley it is!~~ TikTok, Celebrity culture and Google are a cancer though. ~~Common ground!~~ Even as a joke 🤮. Ketanji hearings etc.

Galileo had a better solution to prisoner’s dilemma than Julia and Winston. But with so many things ripe to be thrown under every bus, neither is necessary.

Hate it when stuff like TikTok is pushed as somehow mainstream or populist. Idiocracy and dumbing down.
