He's not retiring by choice. He knows he'll never get elected to anything ever again.

Retiring?
A) He joined with Dems to Attack the Republican party and has been excommunicated.
B) "His" district has been Gerrymandered by Democrats out of existence.
In other words..."He has been Canceled"
Or...."Kinzinger Committed Suicide"

"He says the country has been poisoned by mistruths" - He should know, since he is one of the sources of that poison.

If the wimpy Republicans want a future in politics beyond just being the minority political party in DC they will get rid of all their RINOS, and the State level Republican Parties will no longer nominate RINOS to hold DC elected political positions. Notice that the very increasingly leftist and socialist Democrats do not have any such situations as they do not nominate or elect under the covers Republicans. Those RINOS are really nothing more than Democrats in disguise.

In the redistricting, Kinzinger effectively lost his district. He is not retiring by his choice. Has sniffed around possibly making a senatorial run, but rotsa ruck with that notion. His personally composed PR hype is that he is here to save our country from Conservatives and Trump. Ditto the rotsa ruck. He’s a bum and not a very bright one.

Dolt rolled snake eyes in his willing participation in the coup d'etat against our President. And then stabbed in the back by his temptors.
Ashheap of history? Meet Judas Iscariot Kinzinger!

From the comments, it appears that most writers know very little about Kinzinger aside from his relationship with President Trump.

He's never going to reelected, and he knows it. So he's going out lying. Don't let the door hit you in the arse on the way out.

If the telling of "mistruths" was so important to the future of our Country, you would think he would name one.
