U.S. Congressman Dean Phillips, a Democrat from Minnesota, made a stunning announcement that he will not seek re-election. Instead, he’s on a mission to dethrone President Biden in the 2024 Democrat primary. Yup, you read that right. Phillips is trading in his comfy congressional seat to take on ol’ Joe.
Phillips, who’s been representing Minnesota’s Third Congressional District, made his grand exit proclamation in a flashy press release. He prattled on about bringing an “optimistic approach to American politics” but suddenly decided it’s time to “pass the torch.” Sounds like a lot of fluff to cover his true intentions, right?

The Minnesota Democrat is all about civility, respect, and effective governance – at least, that’s what he wants people to think. He’s been nudging President Biden to step aside, citing his tanking poll numbers and concerns about his age. When no Democrat governor heeded his call, Phillips valiantly threw his own hat in the ring and filed for the Democrat primary in New Hampshire. Talk about a brave move.
Why New Hampshire, you ask? Well, it’s a mess over there with the Biden Campaign, the Democratic National Committee, and the New Hampshire Democratic Party squabbling over the primary process. So, Phillips is swooping in to take advantage of the chaos and make his mark in the Granite State. He’s been hitting the campaign trail in New Hampshire, determined to shake things up and make a splash.
It seems like Phillips is on a fool’s errand, but hey, stranger things have happened in politics. And who knows, maybe he’ll give ol’ Joe a run for his money. It’s shaping up to be a juicy Democratic primary showdown, and Phillips is throwing himself right into the ring. Let the political drama unfold!
