Anyone who uses the victims of Epstein’s horrific sexual abuse to advance a political agenda or chase public recognition should seriously reconsider their line of work," said Rep. Derrick Van Orden, R-Wis.

Another SEAL politician set on auto-suck for the Israelis.

Massie was clearly saying in a why manner that if Johnson adopted his position and thanked him for his work he would vote with them. This is just more anti-Massie slop coming from the Trump camp.

Massie is a snake. Nobody will ever convince me that Massie wasn’t banging his mistress while his wife, and the mother of his children was still alive. There was secrecy about her sudden death, specifically as she looked fairly healthy in recent photographs. Massie didn’t immediately release what took his wife’s life, later claiming that she suffered from an autoimmune disease that caused respiratory failure. Suicide will do that too.

Thanks for bringing the receipts. It seems little Tommy has built quite a record for himself the last few yrs. I wonder what his bank accounts look like as a result.

Since massie says he’s easily bribed and for sale....

how much is the nevertrumping, tds afflicted massie selling himself for, when he’s voting with the leftist Dems when he isn’t ‘voting 90 percent conservative’ or whatever the massie/rand paul gaslighters use to try to fool FR into thinking these 2 leftist supporters are republicans

You pompous idiot! Israel’s enemies are our enemies as well!
ISRAEL is our proxy in the ME! They fight for our common interests.
Israel is the only country on Earth to fight a 21st Century war.
You are blinded by hate & TDS….

This revelation is quite consistent with the fact he didn’t say a word about this all during the Biden years when it was a prominent item in the news, no bill filed, no discharge petition, etc.

This is all about getting attention for himself...what other reason could there be?

He demands “Justice”? 5 years later?
