"There has been a jumping of the gun by individuals, and I'm not surprised Alan Winde told me in May already that I should go," he said. I believe that it was important to speak about this and what it means for me and for the legislature. I am a politician, so I'm not naive, and I have continued to dismiss these allegations as baseless and malicious. It was a political witch hunt."People must not be excited to remove me as Speaker.
