Rep. Massie: "We're sending more money to Israel than we spend on homeless veterans"
X / House of Representatives ^ | July 16 | Rep. Thomas Massie

Posted on 07/16/2026 12:54:19 AM PDT by RandFan

@RepThomasMassie

Though my amendment to strike $3.3 billion in aid to Israel from the State Dept Approps bill did not pass, 104 House Members voted in favor of it. The tide is changing.

Americans want their tax dollars to be spent improving things here at home, not waging war and genocide.

One of his final broadsides in Congress.

Though at some point he may list the Epstein clients using protected speech. He promised to do that.

a real lying jerk

genocide? who’s he kidding?! such a F***ing liar .... especially after 20,000 (plus or minus) big aid trucks FILLED with free food and provisions that Israel sent into Gaza

a first time in all of human history that a nation that has suffered an invasion and mass-savage-slaughter attack .. has been feeding the enemy population during hostilities

never before done, not by USA....not by Russia...not by UK.....not by France...nobody has ever done a less genocidal, more humanitarian thing in history

(the once-only Marshall Plan had to wait until Allies finished the war with the firebombing and levelling of German cities....)

it is so sickening to see what the far leftists have done, are still DOING to America... sickening.

The same stupid logic the Dems use when they whine about how much we spent on Iran instead of spending it on schools.

If Massie had won his primary, Mitch would be dead today.

Homeless veterans! Yuck, Yuck, Yuck. Pretty rich coming from a guy who voted for H1-b Indians.

The Left’s obsession with Israel is evidence that Jews are indeed God’s Chosen People and that the Bible is true.

The U.S. government loses massively on fraud. According to a first-of-its-kind estimate from the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO), direct financial losses due to fraud likely range between $233 billion and $521 billion annually.

Defund Israel is the same as defund ICE or defund the police.

More stolen valor bullshit. I’m old enough to remember in the 80s and early 90s that they blamed the homeless drug abuser problem on unfortunate vets whose heads were screwed up by the ‘criminal police action’ coupled with addiction from rampant drug use in Viet Nam. Then investigative journalism proved that less than 0.01% of drug abusers on the street who claimed tbey were Viet Nam vets actually were and it was all lies to justify their situation and get sympathy. Investigative journalism showed Viet Nam vets were among the most productive members of society whose only real issues were access to good VA benefits. Full stop.

So, eff you Massie. Israel is also getting more money than research into migration of LGBTQ Monarch butterflies. And for good reason. STFU.

Learn to recognize the difference between a real story and made up attention whoring.

with Israel’s plan to wean over next few years, already moving a lot of their defense production homeward and away from the US, this is now becoming a dead letter - used by antisemitic Ds Islamists Marxists etc. right now we need Mossad greatly unless you want a Forever War in Iran, our boots on the ground.they’re already on the ground: we’re not. move on...

WTF does that even mean? Not trying to argue with you - I just don’t have the remotest clue what assertion you’re trying to make.

While we spend more and more and more on schools with a powerful negative correlation between positive outcomes and dollars spent.

The headline gets me. May I humbly suggest (plea) that people give what they can to T2T and others - they will help vets more than gov’t. And our help should come from out hearts, not gov’t programs. Let’s just do right for any vet in need.

I would be willing to bet he will do no such thing. Why hasn’t he done it yet? He has *literally* nothing to lose. Unless he’s extracting people with his privileged information. Yet he’s still silent. Why?

Because he has nothing or anyone he could name would elicit respnses of, “who?”

Who’s willing to bet he won’t speak a single name other than perhaps renaming people who have already been named.

Autocorrect. Extracting = extorting.

NOW you’re concerned with homeless vets? How are your investigations going on Somali and other illegal alien groups’ fraudulent activities? They’ve stolen more money than would ever go to homeless vets, and maybe even Israel.
