MIAMI, Florida (The Adobo Chronicles, Washington Bureau) – It’s all but over for Republican presidential candidate Senator Marco Rubio.  Any minute now, he is expected to announce that he will be suspending his camapaign for the Republican presidential nomination after continued dismal showing in the polls.

Rubio says he has no regrets joining the initially crowded field of GOP presidential aspirants.  He is happy that he has, so far, made it to the last four standing candidates.

But reality is finally sinking in for the relatively young politician. “I am tired and worn out.  I have chosen to altogether retire from politics and work,” he said today from his Florida home.

As proof of his early retirement plan, Rubio showed off to reporters his newly-acquired furniture which will be his cherished spot in his retirement: a rocking chair.  Not just a rocking chair.  A GIANT rocking chair.

We wish the senator all the best and congratulate him on his retirement.

Conservative Columnist Ann Coulter Leaving America For Good

NEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles, Washington, D.C.) – Conservative columnist Ann Coutler took to her Twitter account this week to say goodbye to America. For good.

The American pundit and book author is known for her stinging opinions and criticism of liberals, Democrats, Obama, Clinton and almost anyone who counters her right-wing views.

The last straw for Coulter came during this week’s Democratic presidential debate held in Florida where moderators and the audience asked candidates Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders questions in Spanish.

In her tweet, Coulter categorically stated, “Adios, America!”

Now, if you understand Spanish, you know he meant goodbye.  She’s leaving.

The  Adobo Chronicles  could not independently confirm as to which country she is moving to. We can only wish her the best of luck. Buh-bye!
