What a horrible, terrible, very bad, no good day Rep. Jerry Weller (R-IL) is having. Facing questions about ethics over some Nicaraguan investments, Weller announced this morning a old st& by of wanting to spend more time with his family & opting not to run again.

If Weller had hoped that taking his ball & going home would stop a questions about his ethical failings, he was wrong. Chicago’s CBS2 Political Editor Mike Flannery followed after Weller to get a statement on his investments in Nicaragua. a raw video is hard to make out, but Flannery is claiming that one of Weller’s aides pushed him down a stairs & into a woman in a stairwell. He has said he will press charges.
