I don't fucking care. Do you understand? Massie needed to go. End of story.

Fourteen years in Congress, and all he managed to do was be a roadblock. Patriot? HA!! Patriot, my ass. Ridiculous.

Oh, da Joos!! Da Joos!! Da Joos!! Just save it. If your boy had actually done something to help us, he wouldn't have been removed.

You and others behave as if those who voted to kick him out are clueless pawns. Just save the lectures. It's the Massie supporters who are missing the point.

What kind retardation causes this level of antisemitism? Saying Israel and their lobbies have unlimited funds is insane. Our interest payments are more than their entire GDP. Not to mention constantly defending themselves from the world. There is some demonic stuff going around in our politics. Massie had plenty of support. Dumping money into the campaign didn't sway the voters, his actions and words did.

When your "smart guy" starts using words repeatedly in a derogatory fashion, like "Boomer", then I just immediately tune the message and messenger out. It's no different than playing the race card, the patriarchy card, or identity politics or dumping on Millennials or any other group. You can't make a real argument so you just insult people by essentially calling them stupid, ignorant, etc. And just so you know, I myself am not from the Boomer generation.

Marjorie Taylor Green, Anna Paula Luna, Lauren Boebert, Pam Bondi… the list goes on. It’s not a gender issue, it’s a consistent problem that plagues politics in the US.

The next time you hear a sound bite from a politician and think “this is the right person!”, do some digging first.

As someone who lives in a rural section of Jefferson County (Louisville), which keeps getting bounced amongst 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Congressional Districts during re-apportionment after censuses, I can attest to his political leanings.

Massie started out as a quirky, nerdy, Tea Party Libertarian in the Republican Party, as independents can’t get elected. After his first wife died, he took up with a left-leaning woman, who later became his second wife, which caused a “make-over” (tonsorially and politically). He also had some questionable dealings which raised eyebrows in the District.

He then began holding views that were out-of-step with his constituents. He never met a political position he didn’t support after only 5 minutes. And don’t stand between him and a TV camera, otherwise you’ll get flattened. Don’t look for him to show up on the floor of the House for the next 6 months unless it’s to promote himself.

Being anti-Israel and being antisemitic are very different things. Do not conflate them and then try to smear me again.

Fine, present your specific evidence for his malfeasance.

Not sure where you got your numbers but from the AIPAC website Pac and independent donations total less than half that.

FEC records show that Gallrein has received ZERO money from AIPAC, they pumped money into Massie ads. $35 million is bullshit, the entire total money spent on both campaigns together is roughly $ 32 million.

But gee, no mention of money Massie directly received from his largest donor, Jewish multi-billionaire Jeff Yass, a man who has donated millions to anti-Muslim, pro-Israel causes.

A clarification:

Trump-backed dairy farmer and retired Navy SEAL Ed Gallrein defeated seven-term Rep. Thomas Massie 55%-45% in the May 19 primary (NYT results, Instagram/NYT recap). AdImpact certified it as the most expensive U.S. House primary in history, with roughly $33-35 million spent across all sides (Politico, American Prospect).[nytimes +3]

The amount of $35 million was the total of both candidates!

The amount of $35 million was the total of both candidates!

Massie’s campaign has spent $5.8 million, while Gallrein’s has spent $2.6 million

In terms of outside spending, independent political groups have spent more than $10.1 million supporting Massie.
Massie’s campaign has said it has mainly relied on grassroots fundraising. He has received support from the Kentucky First PAC, backed by Pennsylvania billionaire and major TikTok investor Jeff Yass, which contributed $1 million in support, and the Make Liberty Win PAC, which poured in $518,205.

Super PACs have favored Gallrein, contributing more than $16.4 million in his support.

The Republican Jewish Coalition Victory Fund poured in another $470,000 of spending against Massie over the weekend, according to Quiver Quantitative.

I was speaking of the writer of the post on X, not you personally. A bit testy are we?

Well finally my home state got a few things right.

Massie - Out and McConnell's Money Machine -Defeated. A good day for Kentucky....

Massie will go on to be a mouthpiece against Trump and the MAGA movement on social media likely a Libertarian podcaster, with Tucker Carlson and Tom Woods propping him up with their subscribers.

Where was Massie when Obama was using military forces without congressional approval? Where was Massie when he sided with Dems in closing the govt? He didn't give a single fuck about Epstein until he could use it as a billy club against Trump. He implied Trump was a pedophile, and also flat out stated that Trump was protecting pedophiles.

Massie is done, he can hang out with Tucker, Candace, Marjorie, etc.

Prosecutor charged for allegedly emailing self sealed Jack Smith Trump report, veiled as cake recipe

https://justthenews.com/govern..._campaign=newsletter

A pro-DEI federal prosecutor in the office that handled Jack Smith’s classified documents investigation into Donald Trump has been charged for allegedly illegally emailing herself a copy of the special counsel’s confidential anti-Trump report and concealing these sealed documents by trying to disguise them as cake recipes.

The Justice Department announced on Wednesday that Carmen Mercedes Lineberger, the Managing Assistant United States Attorney (MAUSA) of the Fort Pierce branch of the United States Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Florida (SDFL), had been charged with two counts of theft of government money or property, with the destruction, alteration, or falsification of records in federal investigations, and with the concealment, removal, or mutilation of public records.

The charges against Lineberger, who is also on the advisory board of the National Black Prosecutors Foundation and is the continuing legal education chair for the National Black Prosecutors Association, were filed in the Northern District of Florida.

“In separate instances in late-2025, the defendant altered the electronic file names of government records that she received in her official capacity as the MAUSA in order to conceal her unauthorized electronic transmission of those records to personal email accounts belonging to her without being detected,” the DOJ said Wednesday. “The altered government records included a document compiled by the defendant consisting of portions of internal DOJ electronic messages and an internal DOJ memorandum, and a DOJ report related to a criminal prosecution in the SDFL that had been court-ordered to remain under seal and prohibited from distribution or disclosure outside of DOJ.”

The DOJ said in its press release that Lineberger attempted to conceal her actions by saving electronic copies of the government records in question under misleading files names such as “chocolate cake recipe” and “bundt cake recipe” before emailing those documents to her personal email accounts.

“As to the DOJ report, the indictment further alleges the defendant acted knowing that her transmission of the record outside DOJ directly violated the court order and impaired the proper administration of the underlying criminal prosecution,” the Justice Department added.

Judge Aileen Cannon, who oversaw this element of Smith’s special counsel investigation, had ruled in February 2026 that then-Attorney General Pam Bondi and all DOJ officials and employees were all barred from releasing, transmitting, or sharing the second volume of Smith’s report on Trump.

Boom shaka-laka....

Massie was formally kicked to the curb yesterday! Should have been done by 4th District a LONG time ago. Finally!

I appreciate that.

Now, Massie in Massie out, at this point is broadly irrelevant. Winning primary's is not winning mid-terms and isn't winning in '28.

I think the Republicans need to have a plan for that as it's going to be a real tough time. The MAGA coalition isn't going to be there, and if anyone is so stupid as to say "we don't need 'em!" you need votes to win elections last I checked.
