We just said goodbye to our good friends Thomas and Carolyn Massie.
The civil war in the Republican Party is successfully gutting the true America Firsters, like myself, Thomas and others.
But I don’t think most Americans realize the extent of what’s happening, how bad it is, and what it’s going to produce.
After taking the hard principled stand against war with Iran in June 2025 and releasing the Epstein files, the neocon controlled Republican establishment now backed by the President set out to destroy us.
Thomas and I took two different routes but ended up in the same place, which delivered a message to our colleagues to never go against the President even on issues he himself promised to do and at the same time delivered the louder stronger message to the American people that no matter what they say on tv, rally stages, committee hearings, campaign ads, or stump speeches, Republicans and Trump have overwhelmingly rejected America First and will do anything possible to cut the head off of anyone who tries to fly its banner.
The extent and extremes to which they have gone should shock everyone.
For me, I was Trump’s loudest champion for years supporting him when no one else would, voting with him 98% of the time, and he called me a traitor for releasing the Epstein files, refusing to support war with Iran, and fighting against the White House’s bad policies that only serve their donors like a 10 year moratorium on state rights to regulate and make laws on AI and data centers.
And yet my perfect conservative voting record, legislative accomplishments like the House passing my articles of impeachment of Biden’s DHS Secretary that oversaw the invasion of our country, passing my bill making it a felony to trans children under 18, my work as DOGE Chair defunding waste fraud and abuse and so much more, suddenly meant nothing to low educated Republicans that are easily manipulated by bot armies and bought and paid for social media influencers that spread absurd lies about me.
After supporting the Republican Party by paying all of my dues to the NRCC every Congress, endorsing and campaigning for Republican candidates, and spending millions and traveling the country to get Trump elected, to be called a traitor and not a single Republican (even the ones I helped get elected like JD Vance and others) not to utter a word of public support for me, it became abundantly clear that the Republican Party is something I can no longer support and want nothing to do with.
None of my policy views have changed, but everything changed about the man I supported to be president and the party I supported to gain the majority.
They are all under full capture and control.
And if you refuse to be captured and controlled with them, then their captors will set out to kill you, and the party sits in silence while it happens.
What they just did to Thomas Massie is unforgivable. I saw it all coming early, had just watched my friend Charlie Kirk assassinated, and knew they were going to do all of it and probably worse to me too, so I refused to allow it to happen to me, my family, and my district, so I resigned.
But Thomas stayed in the fight and they slaughtered him with tens of millions of foreign donor dollars that fueled lies, slander, character assassination, and even broke their own laws to do it.
They told lies to Kentucky’s 4th district that Massie had turned into a liberal Democrat, voting for Democrat policies, and even made vicious lying illegal AI ads showing him in a sexual relationship with AOC and Ilhan Omar.
Even though ALL of it was horrific lies proven wrong with his own 14 year impeccable America First liberty driven voting record, naive older voters in his district were easily fooled by the AIPAC and Israel funded campaign lies, and voted for a new candidate who refused every single debate with Thomas Massie and has no voting record to prove what he stands for at all.
The capture is complete.
What will you do about it?

Every strike against President Trump is a strike for the democrats and other extreme leftists.
Agreed - President Trump is not perfect.
But he is so much better and so far above the slime-balls that preceded him in the White House that
attacks against him are attacks against America and a constitutional republic.
What alternative do anti MAGA attackers have in mind?
There is no perfect alternative waiting in the wings.
The alternative is a return to uncontrolled leftist criminality.
What will you do about it?
I'll ignore this phony along with her boner-phone buddy. They both lost credibility when they cuddled up to Code Pink, The View, and the hard left dems.
Sorry RF, you're just incredibly naive saying this is "interesting". It's not. They're not. Better words would be disgusting, treacherous, phony, liars, hucksters, etc. Those they earned.
With all due respect - screw you! We gave you all of the good along with the bad.
Maggie who?
Republican Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene appears to be embracing a feminist left-wing activist group with alleged ties to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in the final weeks of her House term.
Greene on Wednesday met with members of Code Pink, whose co-founder Medea Benjamin praised the outgoing congresswoman as a “strong anti war voice” in Congress. Benjamin’s group took credit for crashing a D.C. dinner in September where protestors got within feet of President Donald Trump and shouted he “is the Hitler of our time.”
“I have enjoyed a friendship with Medea for a few years now even though politics says that’s not allowed,” Greene continued. “I’ve learned to find bridges with others and that’s how we all win and ultimately leads to peace.”
Lol... Made me laugh. Hopefully we can get rid of Thune next time.

Hey Marge, why the long face?
Do you think warrantless spying on Americans is MAGA since Trump reversed his stance on ending FISA's 702 authority?
Trump didn’t change at all. He’s always been a big supporter of Israel (openly), and always said he would stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons. And, what campaign promises has he not pursued? And, as a reminder, Thomas Massie voted against the OBBB, which made the 2017 tax cuts permanent and funded ICE and Border Patrol. These were “America First” Trump campaign promises which a majority of voters wanted, and Massie went the other way. Spending is a problem, but not addressing border/illegal immigration and a giant tax hike would definitely have NOT been “America First”.
Not interesting at all.
Eff her.
Eff YOU, asshole.

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.

Does anyone here know or understand what MAGA means?
In politics MAGA means an abstract idea or an intangible.
In a foreign language MAGA translates into a female witch or magician.
MAGA this and MAGA that sprinkled everywhere. I like facts and deeds, not superfluous and fancy ideas, for crying out loudly!
Apparently it is aligning with radical leftist groups like Code Pink according to MTG and her followers.
Yeah, well outside the echo chambers there’s a lot more of us who won’t be helping the R’s win anything this fall
If they are told it is then its different
Convinced at this point there are some of his supporters who wold enthusiastically support firearm confiscation if he told them to in the right words
