@RepThomasMassie Survivors at our press conference announced they are privately compiling their own Epstein list. They would be sued into homelessness for naming names, but @RepMTG and I are willing to name names in the House of Representatives under Constitutional “speech or debate” immunity.

Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., on Wednesday criticized the Trump administration’s decision to take a 10% stake in embattled chipmaker Intel , calling the investment “a step towards socialism.” Intel announced last month that the U.S. government made an $8.9 billion investment in Intel common stock, purchasing 433.3 million shares at a price of $20.47 per share, giving it a 10% stake in the company. Intel noted that the price the government paid was a discount to the current market price. Paul said government ownership is “a bad idea.” “It’s always a mistake to say, ’Well we have this one bad...

@NancyMace Since it’s already being reported - Yes I left the Oversight briefing with Epstein victims early. As a recent survivor (not 2 years in), I had a very difficult time listening to their stories. Full blown panic attack. Sweating. Hyperventilating. Shaking. I can’t breathe. I feel the immense pain of how hard all victims are fighting for themselves because we know absolutely no one will fight for us.

Finland has belatedly admitted its air force flags probably should not have a huge swastika in the middle. The Nordic country is set to remove the symbol from the standard because its presence has created 'awkward situations with foreign visitors'. The nation adopted the insignia as the emblem of its airborne military when it was founded in 1918.

President Trump is facing outcry from some of his supporters after saying he plans to allow 600,000 students from China into the U.S. “It’s a very important relationship. We’re going to get along good with China,” Trump told reporters Monday during a meeting with the president of South Korea. “I hear so many stories about, ‘We’re not going to allow their students,’” he continued. “We’re going to allow their students to come in. We’re going to allow it. It’s very important — 600,000 students. It’s very important.” Trump’s comments marked a shift from earlier in the year, when Secretary of...

@RepThomasMassie Our government should not have ownership in private companies. There are so many specific problems with an arrangement like this, but fundamentally, this is not who we are as a country.

Rep. Riley Moore (R-WV) sent a letter to President Donald Trump Thursday urging him to award Patrick J. Buchanan the Presidential Medal of Freedom, The American Conservative has learned. “Honoring Patrick J. Buchanan with the Presidential Medal of Freedom would recognize his role as one of the truest patriots of the past century,” Moore told TAC in an exclusive statement. “His unrelenting focus on the forgotten men and women of America paved the way for President Trump’s America First Movement. He was right about pretty much everything 20 years before most people realized it and should be honored for defending...

Former Texas congressman and presidential candidate Ron Paul is celebrating his 90th birthday on Wednesday, August 20, with tributes arriving from across the liberty movement. Earlier this month, around 1,000 supporters gathered in Clute to commemorate the occasion. According to the Durango Herald, supporters previously gathered at Brazosport College’s Dow Academic Center on August 9, including liberty activists, former staff, elected officials, and other figures connected to Paul’s long career in politics. The event was organized by Jeff Frazee of Young Americans for Liberty, the organization which grew out of Paul’s first Republican campaign in 2008, and doubled as a...

On Monday night, Sigal Chattah, U.S. Attorney for the District of Nevada, sounded the alarm after a shocking betrayal of justice allowed an alleged child molester to escape accountability, which “outraged” U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi. The Gateway Pundit reported Monday that Tom Artiom Alexandrovich, head of the Technological Defense Division at the Israel National Cyber Directorate, was arrested in Las Vegas on suspicion of attempting to lure minors for sexual purposes. According to the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, Alexandrovich was caught attempting to solicit sex from a minor electronically during a multi-agency sting operation targeting child predators. He...

An adviser used by Nigel Farage and others in Reform UK to boost their social media popularity has suggested that Britain would be better off had it stayed neutral in the second world war instead of fighting Nazi Germany. ... “Trillions of pounds of British taxes have been spent in foreign lands in the pursuit of ‘democracy’, ‘human rights’ and ‘doing what is right’,” the post said. “More than a million British lives have been lost since WW1 in wars and battles that have never once been fought by British men, on this island.” Fighting in both the world wars...

Rolene Marks ✡️🎗️🇮🇱 @RoleMarks: THIS!! Tucker Qatarlson has to bring in charlatans because interviewing someone like @shadikhalloul does not fit his narrative of demonising Israel. Quote: Shadi khalloul שאדי ח'לול @shadikhalloul · Aug 12, 2026. Tucker, I am an indigenous Christian living in Israel. The woman you interviewed is not. I can’t believe how many lies just came out of her mouth. Many people have asked you to interview me—yet you’ve ignored me. Is truth important to you? Let’s talk. x.com/TuckerCarlson/… Aug 13, 2025 https://x.com/RoleMarks/status/1955466443090432378

@KobeissiLetter Are we on the verge of a generational jobs crisis? The 3-month average youth underemployment rate jumped to 17% in July, the highest since 2020. This metric includes unemployed individuals aged 16–24. Now, the youth underemployment rate has climbed by ~5 percentage points over the last 2 years. This is nearly in line with the peak during the 2001 recession and the early stages of the 2008 Financial Crisis. This also signals the US labor market could weaken further, with young workers typically the first to feel the impact when the economy turns. The job market is rapidly deteriorating.

@RepThomasMassie Three billionaires from New York City and Las Vegas have funded a superPAC deceptively named Kentucky MAGA to run millions of dollars of negative ads against me because I vote against foreign aid for Israel and needless wars in the Middle East. Kentuckians aren’t falling for it.
