We should not be providing financial aid to Israel while being 40 trillion in debt. Being against zionism is not antisemitic, and not attending Netanyahu's address to congress is a good thing. Foreign leaders should not be addressing congress directly, that is foreign influence of our government. |

No matter how much you hate the media, it's never enough.
| Massie votes against massive deficit spending that makes him a Soro's puppet? Massie calls out the Republican Speaker for voluntarily giving up 50 days legislative power instead of using the fact they control the House, Senate, and White House to get things done...and that makes him a Soro's puppet? The last person Soro's would engage with would be Massie. |

I can’t think of anything a far leftist has said (of any consequence) that has not been shown to be false. But I’m willing to concede I may have missed a couple of things. Therefore, historically, I am safe starting out with the assumption they are either lying or simply wrong. |

Massie and the Democrats had no interest in Epstein until Pam fucked up and made it into a weapon that could be used against Trump. It isn't surprising the Democrats would weaponize that but Massie joined them to make it "bipartisan". It was all about narrative framing. And Massie was happy to become a tool of the Democrats in the effort of harming Trump. It didn't pan out well for them, and backfired on Massie. But the backfire on Massie is because it revealed what a shit he was. |

Then obviously if those efforts didn't work those industries would not want to get blacklisted, so of course they hid their identity. That's more logical than hypothical 5D chess move by Soros. Or those who hate Israel, like wealthy Arabs in Texas. |

All we heard the first several months, is all 3 of them were working on it to make it happen. Then Trump turned it into "If you ask about Epstein you are not MAGA and I don't want your support". Trump, then started various attacks on Massie...and Massie responded. Everything about that whole scenario was created by Trump and controlled by Trump. But go ahead and blame the guy who never changed his position or what he stood for. |

It is 100% on Massie that he decided to leverage that to attack Trump and become a tool of Democrats. He owns that and deserved the electoral result he got. That action revealed Massie as an unprincipled grifter. Trump's mistakes made it possible, but Trump has always been flawed. But he has virtues that have overcome his flaws. Massie's virtue was only just his libertarian principals, but those principals count for nothing when you are enabling a snake like Khanna to attack Trump. |

Massie's virtue was only just his libertarian principals, but those principals count for nothing when you are enabling a snake like Khanna to attack Trump. Loyalty to Trump is more important to you than the virtue of standing by principles?  Being loyal isn’t good when he’s not honoring his promises. Like the one to bring justice and accountability to the child rape industry. How is this even an argument? Not to minimize getting WW3 instead of Trump’s promise to end war or anything. That one you could at least pretend it has merit.I just asked Brave if Massie’s values were more conservative or libertarian and got this back. I think it’s the best endorsement for a candidate ever. It makes him sound like a founding father. That’s a man I would vote for. The best politician we could get. “Thomas Massie is a self-described libertarian-conservative and constitutional originalist who served as a U.S. Representative for Kentucky’s 4th District from 2012 until his primary defeat in 2026. His political philosophy centers on strict fiscal restraint, limited federal government, and individual civil liberties, often prioritizing constitutional limits over party loyalty. His core values include: Fiscal Conservatism: Earned the nickname “Mr. No” for consistently voting against federal spending increases, including the 2020 stimulus bill and Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” which he viewed as a debt bomb. Non-Interventionism: A staunch antiwar advocate who opposed foreign aid (including to Israel), refused AIPAC campaign contributions, and resisted measures expanding war powers or warrantless surveillance. Civil Liberties & Second Amendment: A member of the Second Amendment Caucus and Liberty Caucus, he champions gun rights and opposes broad federal surveillance programs, having worked with civil liberties groups against the Patriot Act. Agrarian Self-Sufficiency: Described as a “libertarian agrarian,” he embodies a Southern Agrarian ethos emphasizing local self-reliance, small-farm roots, and minimal government interference in daily life. Constitutionalism: He frames most positions in constitutional terms, arguing for strict adherence to enumerated federal powers and Tenth Amendment pri” |
