"Montana Congressman Matt Rosendale Quits Re-election Bid Amid Death Threat and Rumors"

TL;DR Summary
Far-right Montana congressman Matt Rosendale is quitting politics after receiving a death threat and facing false and defamatory rumors following his failed bid for the US Senate. Rosendale, a member of the House freedom caucus, initially planned to seek re-election but encountered political headwinds, including a lawsuit threat against a former Democratic senator and criticism from fellow rightwing extremist Marjorie Taylor Greene. Rosendale's term expires in early 2025, and he has decided not to seek office again due to the toll the attacks have taken on him and his family.
