TPAction: Thomas Massie is a “RINO”
Charlie Kirk in 2023: Thomas Massie is “one of my favorite members of Congress. He loves the Constitution, he loves liberty. He's honest and he's tough, and he's really gonna go after the intel agencies... Thomas Massie [is] just terrific.”

Nope. Cheney (Liz) was always a neocon who got that seat because of her father in WY. She was unapologetic and did not last long . Many opposed her from the beginning
Before Massie got blackmailed.
He has never changed
Just the president has and embraced neocons..
That’s why Massie now looks out of step. I’m sad to say.
Quote: “Nope. Cheney (Liz) was always a neocon who got that seat because of her father in WY. She was unapologetic and did not last long . Many opposed her from the beginning”
So much so that she was number three in the GOP House Leadership. Wow, that’s opposition right there.
She was a darling of the Fox shows. Until, as you said, Trump refused to go along with her neocon chit and, as I said, she put her own ego and agenda ahead of all else and threw a tantrum.
Trump has been the most “un-War” president in decades. I think the only reason we are at war with Iran is because if Iran gets attacked, they go to war with everyone whether you like it nor not.
How do you think she got into leadership because she was a neocon, establishment shill.
Many had her number back then
How many terms did she last? What’s staggering she literally gave up that seat to stick to her neocon principles when she could have embraced MAGA and maybe on a path to be Speaker!
I kind of respect that loyalty albeit to her donors and the Military industrial complex. She never hid it from anyone and left before getting beat in a primary.
Massie wants to stick around and has much to offer. He’s fighting for his seat. He’s fighting a sitting president. It’s unprecedented in modern history. I was told you have to back to FDR and the ‘40s to find a president doing this.
The thing is, there’s a lot of people stuck in an echo chamber, who don’t realize the only reason Trump won was because of a big coalition and a lot of libertarians and independents that liked the messaging and they don’t see any of it happening
So now that coalition is broken and it’s gonna show in the elections
I don’t know anyone who watches Fox News, who is not an out of touch of boomer
Plus lots of young, first-time GOP voters who won’t repeat that support.
So now you speak for Charlie?
That’s despicable.
You lift one comment from 2023, knowing full well Charlie supported Trump 100 percent, and would be totally on board with trying to primary the mass hole.
Then you imply, like the evil Candace, that there’s darkness in the very people Charlie was closest to and chose to run his organization.
You’re divisive and disgusting.
And most of us here know that about you.
I know a lot of them who he lost with his housing comments and Epstein flip flopping
Iran just pushed it from no thanks I’ve had enough to GFY
So he can’t presume to that Charlie’s own quotes may be applicable but you know he would be 100% on board?
Lol get some perspective
LOL, so now Trump is a neocon, wear your pink with pride.
Liz Cheney (neocon) <==> Donald Trump <==> Thomas Massie (America First)
Yes, Trump was far more nationalist than Cheney but Massie is more nationalist than Trump.
What did Charlie think about the first time Trump attacked Iran?
The premise of your question is off. Iran has been attacking the US off and on for 47 years. Trump is responding to, not attacking Iran.
Your question should be what did Charlie Kirk think when Donald Trump finally RESPONDED to Iran’s long list of attacks, murders of US service men, threats and assassination attempts?
If so, please check your mental condition.
Tried-and-true conservatism has lost every close race since Eisenhower. Anti-Democrat Party candidates have to play the hand they're dealt. This nation has been indoctrinated and brainwashed for decades. No filth or degradation by the Democrat Party seems to make DNC candidates unpopular with majorities or near-majorities in power centers across the country. Wake up. Trump fights to win. Puritanism didn't work even in the colonies.
This is the “bigger picture” you apparently aren’t seeing, per RandFan:

https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4367527/posts (Massie) admitted in a recent interview that he once offered Republican leaders his vote IN EXCHANGE for a public expression of gratitude for his role in forcing the disclosure of the federal government’s Jeffrey Epstein files.
https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4367330/posts Massie’s vote was contingent on whether or not Speaker Mike Johnson would publicly praise him for releasing the Epstein files. “This is a literal quote from Thomas Massie’s interview with Politico. “Praise me publicly and I’ll vote the way you want.”

Lone Republican becomes only lawmaker to vote against crackdown on human organ trafficking (Massie)
A bill aimed at cracking down on the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its practice of forced organ harvesting passed with overwhelming support on Wednesday – though one House lawmaker voted against it.
Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., was the lone Republican to oppose the Stop Forced Organ Harvesting Act, which passed 406-1.
“It’s just another example of us trying to stick our nose in another country’s business and write their laws,” Massie told Fox News Digital after the vote. “And at the end of the day, they’re gonna do what they’re gonna do, and it’s just sort of a virtue signal over here.”
...
But his pushback is also notable now given his status as an open critic of Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., and at times, of President Donald Trump.
The bill was introduced by Rep. Chris Smith, R-N.J., and would authorize the Secretary of State to deny U.S. passports and visitor visas to people involved in organ trafficking circles.
It would also call for sanctions on entities and individuals found to have participated in the gruesome illicit industry.

‘Mofo...in the White House’: Jasmine Crockett attacks Trump, praises Massie in anti-Iran strike rant
‘There’s only one Republican that I know I can count on for sure doing the right thing,’ Rep Crockett says in a new video
Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, launched another tirade against President Donald Trump over the weekend, while offering rare praise for one of her House GOP colleagues who is currently at odds with the commander in chief.
The Democratic firebrand took to Instagram Live late Saturday to criticize Trump’s strikes on Iran, while giving a “shout out” to Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., over his bipartisan resolution to rein in the president’s ability to conduct such operations.
“So long story short, for those of you that are unaware, the mofo that resides in the White House has unilaterally, in my estimation, declared war,” Crockett said in the video.

Massie bucks GOP leadership again on Adam Schiff censure vote, draws conservative ire
Conservatives are conveying anger with northern Kentucky Rep. Thomas Massie over his vote to oppose a resolution censuring California Rep. Adam Schiff, a favorite boogeyman of Republicans. Massie joined 19 other House Republicans in defecting from party leadership from condemning Schiff for championing the investigatory onslaught against former President Donald Trump. Combined with unanimous Democratic opposition, the measure failed, surprising even Schiff. The libertarian-leaning Massie claimed the resolution was unconstitutional for a clause that instructed Schiff should be fined $16 million if the House Ethics Committee found he “lied, made representations and abused sensitive information.” “Allowing a majority of Congress to take $16 million (92 years of pay) from any member of Congress is shortsighted,” Massie tweeted again of the Wednesday evening vote. “Can we not imagine a time when this precedent would be used against conservatives? Fortunately it failed.” Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, a Florida freshman, said Massie was “making misrepresentations about the bill” she authored. A band of pro-Trump political figures went even further, casting doubts about Massie’s reasoning and calling for his defeat. Massie has endorsed Trump rival, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination. “Not only is he being duplicitous, partisan and moronic about his choice – he’s straight up lying about the Constitution to achieve his political end goals. Sick,” wrote Raheem Kassam, a British political activist and editor in chief of The National Pulse.
