A pro-Palestinian Texas businessman has been bankrolling an anti-Israel super PAC that’s now backing a a trio of insurgent far-left New York congressional candidates, records show. Hussein “Sam” Mahrouq — the owner of Enterprises International, which runs AutoMax and Dollar Rent-A-Car — donated $400,000 to the American Priorities PAC, which was formed earlier this year as a counter to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee. The organization said Tuesday it would drop $2 million on TV, streaming and digital ads to boost House candidates, Darializa Avila Chevalier, Claire Valdez and Brad Lander, who have all been endorsed by Mayor Zohran...

@EvanAKilgore Tucker Carlson says he no longer supports the Republican Party and that it is "no longer loyal to the United States." He says the GOP puts foreign nations over America and that there is no way he can defend the GOP anymore.

@RepThomasMassie 19 Republicans withheld our votes in order to preserve Constitutionally guaranteed rights. By refusing to honor the Fourth Amendment, you’re jeopardizing the continuation of FISA. Include a WARRANT requirement for US citizens if you want Republicans to pass this bill.

@GenFlynn This was no mistake. The crew of the USS Liberty. @RepThomasMassie thank you for keeping this story alive.

Thomas Massie isn’t acting like a defeated man. After losing the most expensive primary race in American history last month, largely thanks to pro-Israel figures and groups spending millions to defeat him (according to the Federal Election Commission, Massie received donations from 1,119 individuals actually living in Kentucky, compared to only 98 for his opponent Ed Gallrein), Massie announced just days later, “I filed with FEC for the 2028 House race.” He explained, “This allows me to raise funds to continue my political operations supporting my position as a current office holder and as a potential candidate for federal office.”...

Thomas Massie may be leaving Congress, but don't expect him to disappear from Republican politics anytime soon ... because he and Marjorie Taylor Greene have been cooking up plans behind the scenes to retake the GOP. Charlie caught up with the outgoing Kentucky Congressman Wednesday on Capitol Hill and asked about his recent Costa Rica vacay with Greene and her fiancé, Brian Glenn -- a trip TMZ first revealed after the group was spotted dining together. Massie praised Greene as someone who has "her finger on the pulse" of MAGA voters ... calling her an important voice for people who...

Thomas Massie may be leaving Congress, but don't expect him to disappear from Republican politics anytime soon ... because he and Marjorie Taylor Greene have been cooking up plans behind the scenes to retake the GOP. Charlie caught up with the outgoing Kentucky Congressman Wednesday on Capitol Hill and asked about his recent Costa Rica vacay with Greene and her fiancé, Brian Glenn -- a trip TMZ first revealed after the group was spotted dining together. According to Massie, the getaway involved more than fishing and margaritas. "I got to talk to Marjorie about what life is like on the...

@GeneralMCNews BREAKING: Thomas Massie and Marjorie Taylor Greene have been vacationing together in Costa Rica.

Thomas Massie built his entire political brand around saying no. ... This is how Thomas Massie destroyed himself while trying to destroy Trump — and how Ed Gallrein ended his career in Congress.

This is what a buffoon sounds like. Thomas Massie was a cancer to the Republican Party. He is already being recruited by the Left to join the Democrat Party. The Woke Right is being purged from the Republican Party. While the Democrats continue to elect radical lunatics. After being defeated in the GOP primary, US House Representative Thomas Massie of Kentucky tells supporters that he would’ve announced his concession sooner but he first called his opponent “and it took a while to find Ed Gallrein in Tel Aviv.” He also claims in his concession speech that young voters are still...

Kentucky House District 4 Primary Results 2026 All Kentucky House Districts Kentucky races : senate house President Donald Trump and his political operation made unseating Rep. Thomas Massie their mission in 2026, turning his 4th District primary into the most expensive House race ever, in terms of advertising. Trump endorsed former Navy SEAL, Ed Gallrein. Republicans Projected winner ED GALLREIN WINS THE KENTUCKY PRIMARY Candidate Votes Pct. Ed Gallrein 46,626

Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) is projected to lose his Kentucky House primary race to President Trump-endorsed challenger Ed Gallrein, according to Decision Desk HQ, a major victory for the president in his bid to oust Republican lawmakers who openly defy him. Gallrein, a retired Navy SEAL and farmer, was projected to win the GOP primary in Kentucky’s 4th Congressional District, ending Massie’s 14-year tenure in the deep-red seat. Trump recruited Gallrein to run against Massie after the incumbent congressman broke with the president on a series of high-profile issues. Tuesday’s results mark the latest example of Trump’s firm hold on...

Gallrein 9,475 53.9% Massie (i) 8,107 46.1%

Horrible Congressman Thomas Massie put out an old Endorsement, from many years ago, of him by me long before I found out that he was the Worst Congressman in the History of our Country. I endorsed Ed Gallrein, a true American Patriot, which Massie knows full well, so the statement that he put out is fraudulent, just like HE is fraudulent. WITHDRAW YOUR FAKE STATEMENT, MASSIE, RIGHT NOW! President DONALD J. TRUMP

Notice how Massie just brings up Israel and Jews unprompted, out of the blue. The question wasn't even about Jews. Disgusting!

In the final days of a tough campaign, @RepThomasMassie is making his closing argument to his district in Kentucky — good people who want lower interest rates, relief from high prices, good education and security. So what’s his message? “We have to stop the Jews!” What does that say about how mainstream antisemitism has become in America? — David M Friedman (@DavidM_Friedman) May 19, 2026Notice how Massie just brings up Israel and Jews unprompted, out of the blue.

Thomas Massie, the Kentucky Republican congressman locked in a heated primary battle with a Trump-backed challenger, is fundraising from anti-war, Muslim-American activists, and leftist-aligned PACs. President Trump has called Massie, long a thorn in his side, the “worst Republican Congressman in history”, throwing the weight of his MAGA political machine behind his opponent to oust him.

WHAT MASSIE AND HIS BIG-NAME SUPPORTERS ARE UP TO ... It is now beyond debate that Massie and his campaign represent the foothold that the Woke Reich and podcaster class (which used to self-identify as the real MAGA and America firsters), joined by the Marxist-Islamist left, seek to create in the GOP. President Trump has led the effort to defeat Massie for his repeated votes against his agenda and MAGA, which has been troublesome given the very tight GOP House majority. Massie has been a reliable Democrat vote on several key policy issues. Massie is a longtime backbencher unworthy of...

But if Massie loses, it's not just the end of his career. (He told Mangu-Ward that if GOP primary voters send him packing, he's going back to his plow and "nobody will ever hear from me again"). It would also effectively be the end of what used to be called the Tea Party, a loose conglomeration of Republican representatives and senators who rode a wave of anti-Barack Obama and anti-George W. Bush sentiment to office in the early 2010s. Although some said that the tea in Tea Party stood for the "taxed-enough already," the rallying cry of the early Tea...

At a rally in a car park outside his campaign headquarters in Florence, Kentucky, on Saturday, congressman Thomas Massie said that the Republican politicians who joined him had made a brave choice. "I'm sure they'll be punished for coming here today," he said. It didn't take long for Massie's warning to prove prophetic, as Donald Trump took to Truth Social to make his displeasure known. Congresswoman Lauren Boebert of Colorado, who had been barnstorming with Massie all weekend, and Rand Paul, the Kentucky senator who endorsed Massie and shares his unorthodox small-government libertarianism, were "parading around like fools for the...
