At one point it was thought Massie wasn’t part of the in-crowd, either, but then he became the darling of people like Ro Khanna and the editors of Politico by joining in the Epstein chorus.
His constituents noticed, and they pulled the lever for Ed Gallrein, and now Thomas Massie can go and hang with Tucker and Candace. Massie can’t blame this on Trump. Massie did this to himself. Sometimes, the grifters become the marks, and that’s the end of the grift.

The Massie loss isn’t something you throw a party over but it’s gotta be much more satisfying in a quiet way because our enemies on the left-you know where they’re coming from.
When I clicked “continue” I got a message that my Amazon account was on hold due to a $544 charge.
I wonder if Massie is taking it out on his new wife.
It sounds like he did.
He took the position that the country didn’t need to be protected and that’s what did him in. He thought he could push for open borders and not care about Americans.
Male version of MTG. Egotistical show-off with no loyalty.
Some 95% of all human woe is self-induced. In Thomas Massie’s case, the figure may be somewhat higher, but it is impossible to exceed 100%.
Do not engage mouth before the brain is in gear.
It’s being discussed on the Ruthless Podcast today.

I found it on realclearpolitics.com.

Very good vigilance on your part. They’re cut from the same cloth and I think a vote should have been put out there to expell her b4 the retirement money became vested. We’d get 100% of the rats to kick her on the way out.
Massie was a fraud. He pushed for what-release of the Epstein Files?
And railed that nothing was being done.
Dan Bongino said Massie never called and requested information or asked for explanation why things weren’t being released that he thought should be in the way he thought they should-not once.
He’s a fraud, but that is not why I disliked him as a Congressman.
I disliked him as a congressman for the same reasons I dislike Rand Paul: He could not subjugate his own precious personal “principles” and vote as a team player for the good of his constituency. His “personal principles” could not be put aside for the overall good of those who elected him-and THAT is his job.
THAT is what he was elected for.
Massie was a fraud. He pushed for what-release of the Epstein Files?
He didn’t push for it when Biden was in the White House, and believe me, if Trump was implicated in them, he would have released them.
That makes me laugh every time I hear Leftist scream about Trump and the Epstein files.
If there was any “There” there, they would have released it and leaked it to the NYT on day one.
That they didn’t is 100% proof positive they DIDN’T have any dirt on him.
No matter how you try to re-frame Massie’s defeat, the people will remember that this was the moment when it became no longer just a conspiracy theory....Israel controls our government. It is there in black and white.
Feb 2024 - Massie was one of 14 Republicans to vote against funding Israel’s war on Gaza
June 2024 - Massie went on Tucker and exposed the fact that every Republican in Congress has their own AIPAC person.
April 2025 - Massie voted against supplemental aid to Israel
July 2025 Massie voted against sending money to Israel for missiles
Jan 2026-May 2026 - The Israel lobby spent over $20 million dollars (more than any Congressional race in history) to remove him from office. And they succeeded.
There is really no question about it.
AIPAC’s own X.com page claimed responsibility for his defeat the day after the election.
People who are saying it was about Trump or Massie’s constituents turning on him or any of this other garbage are just denying reality and re-writing history. Nobody but Fox News boomers are falling for it.
Nice try.
They released the Democrat one yesterday.
Republicans had a couple of subpoenas blocked by Dick Durbin.
Are the joos in the room with you now?
Whenever you can't argue facts and logic, just type: It's the jooooooooos!
Absolutely! It p***** me off to no end that she did that. Further, I think there should be NO retirement benefits for congress or the senate.
MTG, the rights AOC
Massie should have sucked it up and did the right thing.
