Rep. Devin Nunes, R-Calif., will resign from Congress at the end of the year.

Fox News has confirmed that Nunes plans to leave, with a source saying the lawmaker "got a job offer that he can’t refuse" as CEO of a newly established Trump media organization.

"Trump Media & Technology Group today announced that Congressman Devin G. Nunes has been selected to join the Company as Chief Executive Officer," the organization said in a statement.
