President Donald Trump is taking his feud with Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., to the libertarian lawmaker's home turf on Wednesday.
Trump is expected to hold an event in Hebron, Kentucky, on Wednesday, the Republican Party of Kentucky announced on social media Monday. It's located in the northern part of the state's 4th Congressional District, which Massie represents.
Massie's primary rival, Ed Gallrein, will attend the Hebron event, his campaign confirmed to Fox News Digital on Tuesday, while deferring all other questions on the matter to the White House.
Massie himself will miss the event due to a previously scheduled official engagement, his spokesperson told Fox News Digital.

Massie is playing this up in adverts during Trump's visit.
Trump is endorsing/boosting a Never Trumper
“Previously scheduled” my ass!
Massie is a coward!
So?
Won’t help.
Massie should have gotten on the MAGA train, he’s toast.
m ass ie is a communist color revolutionary
he’s getting paid with loot from the US Treasury
Taliban Tom Assie IS a never-Trumper, which is why he's not boosting him.
Better a ex President Trump hater than a current one.
My main commercial attack on Massie would be his deciding vote in committee to raise the debt ceiling under Biden, contradicting everything he says about spending when Trump is president. Hypocrisy stinks!

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.

Thomas Massie seems to suggest action against Iran was to distract from Epstein
One of the least reliable Republican votes:

“He has voted against a majority of Republicans on 73 occasions or 22.3% of the time in the 119th Congress and was just one of two Republicans to oppose the final passage of Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act.”

Flashback: Thomas Massie receives and accepts Quincy Award from Iran lobbyist
Rep Thomas Massie receiving the Quincy award from Trita Parsi, an actual Iranian lobbyist, alongside progressive Democrat Ro Khanna.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trita_Parsi
Trita Parsi (Persian: تریتا پارسی) is an Iranian-born Swedish writer and political analyst who is the co-founder and executive vice president of the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft. He is also the founder and former president of the National Iranian American Council, which lobbies for stances on behalf of, and aligned with, Islamic Republic of Iran.
Massey cannot in any way be considered a republican. He voted against both of Trump’s tax cuts, including the economically critical 2017 cuts. He opposed funding for the border wall. He even opposed the bill banning mutilation of “trans” kids. He is the only “Republican” to vote against all of those bills.
Another name for “Never Trumper” is someone who was initially insufficiently convinced that Trump could be controlled by Israel. Now that he obviously can, they all support him.
That’s not exactly fair.
If I recall correctly, that was the one time he bent his principals to vote WITH his party. So which it, is he a bad guy when he keeps his principals and votes AGAINST his party or is he a bad guy when he bends his principals and votes WITH his party?
Inside sources are still pegged to the notion that Trump would endorse John Cornyn. Look at Cornyn's congressional record, look at Massie's congressional record. There's no doubt here. Massie has terrible instincts and picks stupid fights, but Cornyn is a real deal threat.
Agreed.
All of this is on loyalty, none of it(or at least very little) is on policies.
On average, we’re getting a bad deal with the loyalty schtick. We already got an endorsement for Lindsey Graham.
Correct, but lot of folks don’t wanna hear it
Yeah, right.
Lol Lets check back here on May 20. I suspect Massie wins by double digits
“”Another name for “Never Trumper” is someone who was initially insufficiently convinced that Trump could be controlled by Israel. Now that he obviously can, they all support him.””

While that may not be “the” stupidest comment I’ve ever seen on this forum...
it is definitely in the “Top Ten”.
As if “Never Trumpers” ever wanted Trump to be ‘controlled by Israel’... and as if Trump ever could be controlled by Israel or by ANY other nation or leader. Asinine, truly.
You have to remember the left doesn’t have a monopoly on Jew hate.
“”You have to remember the left doesn’t have a monopoly on Jew hate.””

No, I haven’t forgotten. But Jew hatred is definitely anti-MAGA and I am compelled to point that out, here on this Conservative Christian pro-MAGA forum. The posters that exhibit that type of bias and sentiment need to be ‘addressed’. They probably think they are flying under the radar. They’d be wrong about that, too.
Massie was/is anti-war and got the Epstein child rape pedo-files released, both MAGA pillars until recently. He’s more MAGA than what’s pretending to be now.
