context on why the resignation date is early next year - even MTG knows not to give up good health insurance when you have it
My assumption would be a pivot to punditry / Fox commentator or other similar grift.

She assumed office on 1/3/21, so 1/6/26 will give her the five years required to get a congressional pension and lifetime access to FEHB health insurance. And it'd get her out of the blast radius of a GOP collapse.

I promise you my take as a Black woman in America is that America isn't ready for women to actually have equality, much less Black women. And I am nowhere near her level, but America can't handle perceived power much less actual power being in the hands of women
